very spoilery for severance season two :)
AAAAAAAAFTFTFRREEAESEEFTTUNHUIMJOIMOIJMIJOMJOINJUNHUVFTYCDR
the severance hyperfixation has very much hit like holy shit i’ve watched 2.10 twice in the past twenty four hours. also can we talk about the acting??? like in the birthing cabin scene adam scott was being so incredibly wonderfully talented like RAHHHHHEEEEEEEE HE WAS PLAYING TWO PEOPLE AT ONCE AND IT WAS SO BEAUTIFUL AND COOL AND JUST AAAAAAAAAA
and like the orpheus/eurydice parallels at the very end of the finale when mark had to choose between helly and gemma like he’s orpheus and he turned his back on gemma and he lost her like orpheus lost eurydice!!! doubt comes in and wait for me from hadestown were yelling from the confines of my mind
and there’s also so much depth to that choice! if he chooses gemma then innie mark will lose helly and all his friends and he might even die, and he’s got no proof that reintegration is real, he might just be killing himself for nothing
but if he chooses helly, they might get a few more minutes together. sure they’re doomed, but one last moment could be nice. maybe they could run forever, or maybe they’ll die in a minute. but they had a few more seconds together, and that’s what matters.
also absolutely love emile the goat my baby better lead an uprising and then kill jame and kier and god in the first episode and the rest of the season is just emile and friends having fun on a farm, burt and irving making out, helly and innie mark cooking together, and gemma and outie mark making up for lost time and milchick becomes a middle school theater teachers and the final shot of the season is animated supermanesque god kier flying around with the words they all lived happily ever after in the background
