The dramatic choir/orchestra music during Fred's philosophical drug binge
Anyone know if the series is getting renewed or not?
Hi! I have been sitting on a spec script of The Shivering truth i wrote a couple of months back. Do you guys know any way of contacting Vernon Chatman or Adult Swim? And if they are even interested in receiving Specs?
I love this song and they never manage to surprise me.
drunk and rewatching the series (always a good idea) just realized that the opening story (the finger one) uses audio from The Caregiver album Everywhere at the end of Time, specifically Stage 1. don't know who cares, just kinda took me aback.
I’ve been hoping for a season 3 since season 2 ended, but I haven’t been able to find any info on whether it’s getting renewed or not. With all the changes going on with AS, what do you think?
hey guys
what does the weird moon-face thingy at the start of the show mean?
does anybody know what it is?
I love all the episodes and I can't pick a "least favorite"! However, my least favorite episode segment was the part of some episode from season one where a girl buys underwear that bleeds for her. It just felt kind of unnecessary. What's your opinion? Is there an episode or an episode segment that you dislike? Why?
First let me say Holy Shit. I've seen a few other episodes in random order and haven't binged. Oh boy does this show combine a bunch of my favorite things. Stop motion that allows freedom and a sense of physicality. Stories that speak to humans' inner minds. Fears made real through surrealism and absurdity. Dark comedy that can delight and terrify. Words have power and literal expression can be taken into literal and figurative paths.
The first story delves into a fear of what others put in us, what we put in others, and that we may all truly be filled with terrible things on the inside.
The second story can be a story of loss, of mistakes, the dark underbelly of society, and how we can willingly close ourselves off from others without realizing the repercussions.
The third story brings real world horrors into a black comedy of acceptance and rejection. The audience cheers at the triumphant talking head and when any sympathy is given to his beheader, the beheader must disappear.
The fourth story speaks again to fitting in. How we can exist in a state that is irregular, beyond our control, judged, and have the world reject without providing help or sympathy. In the end even violence doesn't fix problems despite their volume.
The fifth story is pretty direct with its message of self love to build confidence and of the results that can come from that confidence. The fruits of our labors then burden and fracture, both the external and internal results.
What a fast trip to existential dread.
My fav is beast of both worlds because I love the person that snorts gloom.
