You really should remember that Angels with the ending of 'el' in their name means they are 'of god'. Gabriel is the strength of god... or more welknown as 'God is my strength'.
Some angels are without the 'el' addition and to be considered lesser Angels and not on the same level as Michael, Gabriel, Danyel, etc. etc.
Thanks for mentioning that. I was also going to point out that Gabriel is one of the four major Archangels, along with Michael, Uriel, and... Raphael, so it is kind of funny that Gabe took out Raph so easily. The only angel who was supposed to be more powerful than those four was Samael.
@@jackwells8107 ahh yes Samael, the lightbringer, chief angel of angels, guardian of the firmament.... also known as Lucifer :p
And, well, Raphael is the Archangel of healing, so he is more of the one that stops people from dying, rather than an active fighter. He's more a surgeon than a deathdealing assassin for comparison. He is the uber support that is possibly the weakest of the archangels in terms of pure firepower, but could be the most powerful when it comes to supporting someone else.
I love little theological/linguistic tidbits like this. Thank you for teaching me my new thing for today
@10:00 You mention a brief moment of compassion on the part of Gabriel. Not so strange if you take into account Gabriel still believes himself to be doing the right thing. Remember, the dog is innocent and one of God's creatures, and so not subject to Gabriel's contempt as are humans. This can also be seen in Gabriel's frequent admonitions against blasphemy throughout the first and second movies. Anytime someone says "God Damn it!" in his presence he will chime in with a "Watch the blasphemy.", statement. Always remember, Gabriel's purpose is to replace humans with angels as God's first love...
I have been binge watching your videos for 2 days now. So thanks😊
no thank you for watching
So the things we see gabriel being fascinated by are a radio, a computer, and a gun. It's possible that with the war on he hasn't interacted with humanity for some time, and all of these things, unlike cars which as you say are somewhat like carriages or chariots, have no easy analogue in the ancient world.
So it might make sense that the reason he sees these things as miraculous and other things like cars as not are because unlike cars which are within a context he can understand even if the details are unknown, computers, guns, and radios all rely on concepts wholly alien to the ancient world, at least that's my theory.
I love how in movies, most of the time, if a character is called Gabriel, he's either a paragon of virtue or a complete evil bastard. We never get generic Gabriels.
Don't forget the famous comedians.
i surpose animals are more pure than humans because like Gabriel said in Constantine
god acceps murderers rapists and many more as long as they repent and that's why they don't want humnas in heaven but animals are pure they work on instinct and don't crav e evil for the sake of self gain
animals aren't evil they are just alive
at least those are my thoughts on why he didn't wanna kill the dog
That...or maybe Gabriel's just a dog person. ^^
Are you telling me that dogs don't go to Heaven? Because I'll debate you on that.
Hate to break it to the bible, you can't be alive if you don't have a fucking soul.
It feels like these movies are the first time Gabriel had to directly come down and interact with humanity. In the first, he sent another angel. Maybe Simon was the first angel to hide on Earth.
Also, it seems like Gabriel may have learned from the first movie, and is just keeping his minions alive now.
Is there a rule about not using divine powers to show off? Yes! But remember in the last review when you made note of how Angels are depicted with the same or similar personality flaws as humans? Danyael is wanting to make kids happy, and is skirting the rules, most likely justifying it with the "parlour trick" logic, which is definitely something a human would be liable to do
Nephilim is never a good idea. The Powers slaughtered all the Nephilim because most couldn't handle their power and the clash of divine and mortal within them, resulting in insanity combined with godly powers. Never a good combination.
The Nephilim were a very self-centered group of people who were descendants of Cain and Seth. Seth's way was what Christians aspire to today: meekness, humility, and seeking forgiveness for even the slightest evil thought. Cain's way was very secular, seeking only one's self as reliance, and rejecting God, believing themselves to be superior, hence the word Nephilim.
They were very much like the Greco-Roman Pantheon: humans who were stronger, faster, and nigh-immortal, but also violent. Thor, Hercules, Gilgamesh are all considered based off of the Nephilim. Even Goliath could've been considered as such.
The prophecy series is like the jaws franchise. The first was unquestionably the best, the second is good but nowhere near the level of the first.
I hold out hope of one day seeing the lunacy that would result if they made a sequel called "The Prophecy: The Revenge". I love Jaws 4. Its utterly awful, and I love it for that
"DANYAEL" would be a Filipino spelling of the name.
Good gracious, Jennifer Beals is lovely.
Damn, Supernatural stole pretty much all of its Angel lore and characters from this franchise didn't it?
A lot of this stuff is more or less actual theology/mythology, so it's not like The Prophecy invented it.
@@jackwells8107 Supernatural devolved into pop culture reference the show by the time the Angels showed up. I have zero faith that the writers did any real research and just watched a bunch of relatively obscure 90s horror movies to steal characters and entire story archs from.
The rule about gods powers is something like "you shall not put your lord to test" meaning you must not put yourself in a situation that demands god's intervention (for example, jumping off a building so he makes you fly or something).
Even Gab doesn't like it when dogs are hurt in films
Gabriel likely had angel minions to use tech xD
Danyiel seemed to get stronger as he had more emotions.
Oh wow, your comment at 14:25 was freaking brutal! Brilliant, and true, but absolutely without mercy, brutal.
I have no officially fallen in love with your channel, I've watched quite a few of your reviews, and I've really enjoyed them, but that comment, with such a dry delivery just sold it. You've got a new Subscriber.
I guess they cant kill themselves after Gabriel resurrects them
the guy in the last movie got killed by daggert
Izzy is the BESTEST lackey!
14:21 makes me smile every time
also yea this fish out of water I was expecting with wishmaster not this
Two minor opinions. I stopped watching these after 3 because the arc i liked completed there and i didn't want the others to touch these, which i loved.
Gabriel tasting things. Since id agreed from the outset at the beginning to believe the story i can give the logic applied. Angels fly and birds are another creature thats flies and tastes things for information.
Gabriel not knowing about the "horseless carriage" and other technological advances. Scrabbling for this one because the writers didn't to go into it but did want to keep the running joke. Since Gabriel despises humans watching them closely or at all would be distasteful for him. No need to look at them at all since humans are still in their graves and no soul reaching heaven until the 2nd war is done. Cars are there to keep his lackeys close by or to make it possible for them to complete a task. He's not going
To carry them.
May I ask why being a priest or monk is not helpful? Danyael also said he wouldn’t kill her in the church which is why he he was dragging her out l.
Glenn Danzig is the Angel Sammael fighting Danyael.
Aww, baby Brittany Murphy. ❤️
A lot of people dislike this movie but I don't, I love all three Prophecy movies because well...Walken is amazing and hypnotic as Gabriel.
I always took the pic knowledge I as a miracle thing to show when Gabriel stopped watching humanity And decided we were just monkeys that speak
10:55 - 11:16 Even Dogma (1999) had the decency to use practical effects with their angel wings than just cgi for Affleck, Damon, and Rickman's angels.
God man i just love your work. Keep it up.
The Prophecy 2 is a masterpiece compared to the third film.
LUcifer was to busy for the war opening a club in Los angeles
That helpful monk was played by J.G. Hertzler, General Martok for DS9 fans.
Maybe the sex was ... wait for it ... heavenly.
Wait I just thought.. He'll have a far worse punishment... and he turns him into a human. So all angels think humans are scum and the worst possible thing in the universe then if being one is the ultimate punishment?
Call it "God's Divine Justice". You become what you hate, so that you may learn compassion, humility and maybe, the grace to finally accept God's will above his own. (Hearkening back to Simon's line in the first movie "When did you lose your grace...") In this, Gabriel's fate is left to himself, to be redeemed and find God, or relegate himself to eternal damnation. Apparently even God had hope for Gabriel in the end and gave him the freedom to choose...
For what it matters at this point, Izzy does that easily because without knowing right off, Gabriel struck her. It was or would have been, a killing blow and she is held to "life" as his lackey by his attention.
When he has hold of her and
Is moving toward what he might need a lackey to, they are held to a pseudo life.
As Eden is effectively an extension of Heaven, it makes sense that we can mess it up. Matthew 16:19 "... whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven."
No honorable mention of Glenn Danzig as one of the battle angels?
Bummer
Good job though
Great work!
knowing it has a reputation as being a horrible movie, I want to say that I like that movie probably more than The Exorcist. It's one of my major league guilty pleasures because it really isn't that great of a movie, but there's this one thing that just gets me and... Anthony Hopkins just kicks ass
It turns out Manny and the Brujeria were behind this all along. XD
the nephalem... all that does is remind me of Diablo, then again the whole movie series gives me deja vu.
Are you ready I’m ready.
Eduardo Jara I'm ready
About Izzy not dying from gunshot and the zombie dude from the first movie doing so... she kills herself with the gun, so Gabriel can bring her back or not let her die. The dude from the first movie is filled with bullets by the cop priest, so it wasn't suicide... he actually says thank you before dying. I'm guessing that's the difference.
i mean considering how tortured the guy was in the first film, thats seems like an incredibly easy solution
@@deusdeaconReviews agreed, but watching the film, it fits. Think about it this way, the lackeys don't know the rules, they only know that an angel kept them alive after suicide. If they try again, he keeps preventing their death, so after a while they give up trying. Of course Gabriel won't tell them that if someone else kills them, they'll stay dead, so they only find out when that actually happens. Between that lack of info and their state of mind, its normal for them not to arrive for themselves at that solution, even if it is a simple one. I do agree that they could've done more with the character.
we have so little info here there are a number of possibilities, I wont even get into the whole whats exactly constitutes suicide ? so lets call it a wash heh
@@deusdeaconReviews ehehe sure. I'm watching your review of chapter three and almost fell of my chair laughing with the "dick fingers" remark! ;)
Used to have the first movie on VHS. Didn't know there were sequels.
Angels like a dramatic entrance lol using a door what’s the fun in that ?
Touching their forhead means he knock them unconscious
This feels more like a Highlander movie.
I’m guessing he’s knocking them out and not killing them since he could’ve used the same technique on izzy
*valarie
without asking you to make a review, dare I ask what your views are on the movie Audrey Rose with Anthony Hopkins? just a real quick like or dislike.
+Starr Clarke I have to confess im aware of it but never seen it so i cant really comment unfortunatly
I’m kinda surprised that you didn’t mention how Gabriel’s angel lackey was played by Glenn Danzig
I don't know who that is, You just told me his name, And I just looked him up, And I still don't know who that is, So I think thats why I didn't mention it in the video, It should be obvious that I don't know ANYTHING about music.
Fair enough, looking forward to HP Lovecraft month
Jesus was the biggest damn show off! WATER INTO WINE! FISH FROM THE SKY! INFINITE BREAD!
PS: i think water is more important than wine.
well in Jesus defence (I'm sure he doesn't really need defending) wine would've been safer to drink then water, the alcohol killing harmful microorganisms, also fish from the sky wasn't a Jesus miracle your thinking of rain of herring in 12th century burgundy.
19:05 I legit got a text
Shot in the heart?
"Gabriel actually had a gun"
Gabriel was also white. Weird or what?
We need castiel hed end this war XD
Honestly the Gabriels lackies thing would have been better done if they made it so they do die from normal things, he just brings them back again, maybe still in pain from the thing that killed them last time. That would give a way to stop them for a time, but also explain why they do what he says, as they literally can't end it without his permission as every attempt just makes it worse.
The whole fish outta water thing really is stupid. Given Gabriel's hatred/ disdain for humanity he definitely would have kept an eye on them and their growth and therefore known how to use a computer
Wait who was that guy from Buffy, the trio all look the same to me...
Danny strong, he was johnathan in buffy.
I may be wrong but the hermaphrodite thing may apply to some angels but not others it could also be due to age or their origins etc I have no idea how this universe works in terms of Angel creation etc.
+michaelkeha well the films never fully specify but in the first movie its pretty much understood that all angels are hermaphroditic
deusdeacon ah ok I thought it was just the one who was also missing his eyes and all that other weird stuff that you never see with any of the other angels.
Well i think it was implied that all angels had no eyes but like we see with simon at the start of the first film they can grow eyes in order to pass as human, simon and gabriel would need that to talk to people but uziel wouldn't as he was only there to kill simon.
Also thinking about it more I think the Gabriel's servants kinda work like zombies as in head shot or sever the spinal cord for death everything else they are fine.
deusdeacon You are probably correct maybe their default is hermaphrodite but much like the eyes they can change their genitalia as they see fit for the situation.
Are you saying, that police officers open fire on individiuals whom they are trying to apprehend?
Sounds a bit social justicy...
yea nephilim is actually angel-devil hybrid at least that's what I learned from just studying and doing a review of DMC devil may cry at a friends channel
yeah thats incorrect, The biblical nephilim is the offspring of fallen angels and human females, as mentioned in the book of genesis, book of numbers and the book of Enoch.
welp I did not know that neat fact
also I thin you would agree as the fish out of water should be in wishmaster and not here
"Fish out of water" is a tired silly trope and shouldn't be used anywhere.
true I mean I love Gabriel the 2nd movie I kinda got annoyed by the trope thankfully they redeemed him in the third movie
Actually an angel/demon hybrid is called a Nephalem not Nephilim, they sound similar but are not the same thing.
13:42
Did they seriously try to hide from an angel in a *church?*
neflheim...so the land of giants?
Nephilim, as in human angel hybrid. The land of Giants wasn't mentioned.
