Brass posted:It's undeniable that something paranormal is happening, right? I think the show was reverse-gaslighting the viewer into being able to dismiss the teen girls as acting crazy when there actually is some evil spirit poo poo happening. At first it seemed to be disparate elements but some of it is coming together. I think everything so far can be explained by coincidence/mania/trauma/psychosis/idiot teenagers. I wouldn't be too surprised if the show explicitly goes supernatural, though I think it ultimately won't despite teasing it. Anyway, I watched all of this season in 3 days and loved it. So entertaining and so much suspense, plus great performances all round. I have to say I'm a little bit worried about S2 and beyond The scene with Nat being kidnapped makes me think it's going to go off the deep end into cult/conspiracy mystery stuff, which often ends up feeling contrived and a bit ridiculous. I think the 90s timeline stuff will still be really interesting, but the current timeline could get pretty silly if they spend 4 seasons slowly investigating some behind the scenes big bad Anyway, aside from that RIP Jackie Girl got done dirty. I hope she comes back as a spooky ghost and spooks them all the time

If Jackie isn't dead yet, why does Shauna always see her ghost spooking her but none of the other dead kids ghosts? It's obvious that Shauna is completely hosed up with guilt for Jackie's death. It's why she keeps pandering to Jackie's parents 25 years on, even though they patronise her and belittle her and compare her unfavourably to Jackie

I have been assuming that Shauna had a miscarriage at some point. Her lack of nutrition would surely result in that happening

We haven't seen Lottie speaking French nearly enough to say that she's "fluent". We know that she studied French in school, so she would know some.

Jackie wasn't a horrible person, she was a teenage girl making teenage girl mistakes. She did some lovely things, she also did some good things and was at times a voice of reason. And some of the worst things she does are basically directly caused by her best friend loving her boyfriend

XboxPants posted:Do they not have football scholarships in europe? In the US, sports scholarships are one of the only ways to try to move up in the world for low income students, it's a large part of our education system. If you can play basketball or football well you might not have to spend your life being broken down doing back-breaking physical labor in some shithole town until you die. Football is separated from school in a way that isn't true in the US. To have any hope of being a professional football player you need to be in the academy of a professional football club from a young age Of course schools have football teams, but they're not a pipeline to future football careers

S1 always gets weirdly talked down online, like "yeah it sucks but keep watching because it gets good". It's all good, it was good from the start and remained good till the end

i don't remember if the seat was on fire too or not. if it wasn't then yeah it's weird, but could just be explained by the post above i.e they didn't really film it well. which would be a shame but it's certainly not impossible. for me it's just not conclusive enough to be like "yeah definitely supernatural", because everything else can be reasonably explained away without coming to that conclusion. it feels to me that the writers' intention so far has been to keep it ambiguous (and I suspect that will continue as long as the show runs)

I AM GRANDO posted:The writers have said they want to keep the supernatural completely ambiguous. Maybe the heat from the pyre caused the snow to fall on Jackie’s corpse, even though that scene was shot like it was Evil Dead when the demons come to the cabin. Perhaps that apparently shared vision of everyone at like a roman feast or whatever was pure metaphor and not a malicious entity putting ideas into their heads. I have no idea if they’ll stick to this, but probably some characters will believe things have supernatural causes and some will refuse. I don't think we are supposed to think they imagined themselves like that. Just for the viewers at one point I thought that maybe the fallen snow was going to put out the fire/melt and leave Jackie intact with her make up all cleaned up, making the survivors very indeed what actually happened was much better and also inevitable really. I just hope we still get more scenes with Jackie, either flashbacks or as Shauna's dead imaginary friend

do we know how the girls ended up being rescued? I can't remember if we've seen that, like were they found or did they eventually find civilisation somewhere

I've been splicing together a fan video/song for this dumb show that I love, and I just noticed that in the intro Jackie does the "cut across throat" motion indicating death It was there all along!

Hi Yellowjackets fans I wrote a song about Jackie and then made a video for it using season 1 clips. It's lofi/indie/alt rock/garage rock or something in that ballpark. I think it is not bad and possibly is actually good? why not listen for one (1) minute and see what you think https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yoSpXU9ymUI
