Cartith Posted October 3, 2013 Report Share Posted October 3, 2013 Its funny that Steelheart's name gives away his weakness, in a way. You need a heart of steel (no fear) to kill him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kurkistan Posted October 3, 2013 Report Share Posted October 3, 2013 Not quite. Not just courage (overcoming fear), but the absence of fear in any form. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oudeis Posted October 3, 2013 Report Share Posted October 3, 2013 Yeah, that's a bit of a stretch. A whole lot of things could be meant by Steelheart. It's a relatively generic term. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cartith Posted October 4, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 4, 2013 I wasn't saying that it was intentional (i.e, Steelheart named himself that for that reason), I was just pointing it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew C Posted October 6, 2013 Report Share Posted October 6, 2013 It is a relatively silly name to choose, assuming SH was aware of his weakness at the time he chose the name. I was under the impression, however, that SH did not know his weakness until the first scene. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
