#holy analysis

But i need you to think this one thing

Why would saps only bring his journal, a few food, a knife, and the vial to paradise?

The food is so sparse its almost like he planned to maybe last a week at best, maybe to test the vial. He didn't get to test it yet, so he has to live long enough to at least find the result. The vial is emphasized as his final attempt (using all of his resources, holding on to it for months to years)

If the vial were to not work, would he still try? He'd have run out of resources, he won't have a place to start. He knows this, he fully acknowledges that he can't easily find the materials here in paradise. So why go there?

The fact the vial worked gave him the strongest thing no cure has given him before. Actual hope. A reason to live

Because it means it wasn't a failure, it means he was doing something right, it means he didn't waste 20 years

Saps doesn't care if people hates him, blame him, wants to kill him. That can only mean even before the vial worked, he would've still have these same ideals. He would've still accepted if he were to die by someone.

It almost feels like, saps lived only long enough to see the result of his vial

And its only by chance was it positive. If it wasn't, whos to say he would still be here?

Saps is so careful... but also so careless..

Also saps has no reason to go back, he has nothing going for his life. No one caring about who he is and deeming him "doctor" is already such a dehumanizing depiction that he has accepted as the norm despite still silently correcting people that he isn't a doctor

He hates himself. He sees so little of himself, he feels used, he feels pressured, he feels stressed. But for the first time, he also feels alive. Which is why he keeps making promises, not only because he genuinely wants to help (that as well), but also the pressure and stress makes him feel alive

What i mean by this, is saps is shown to be very monotone, numb, desensitized, disassociating here and there. Hes soft spoken yea, but its clear its from how tired he is, how he is nearing his breaking point of no return, how numb he is to anything and everything.

But look at him in session 5 and 6, hes not monotone. Hes stressed yea, dear lord he is incredibly stressed, but it fuels a different kind of feeling inside of you than the constant ringing of numbness

The fact he brought so little items to paradise and refuses to leave is pretty telling. He planned to die there

HOLY.SHIT.

BRO WTF WTF WTF WTF???

Honestly i didn't even trought about this specific perspective when thinking about his suicidal tendencies, you kinda opened a gate in my mind rn. The only thing i'm adding here is that Saps didn't really showed to be afraid of being killed for now. Everytime he gets into this type of situation (normally because of Flux) he's always talking about the cure, the people he has to cure, but it's never about how HE wants to live. Yes, that's probably just bc he would want to give a good reason for the others to keep him alive, but isn't it weird that even in a breaking point he's still only worried with the cure rather than himself??

Yk, i think i mentioned this before, but i genuine think he plans to kill himself after the cure is done. He wrote it down. He wrote the cure down. It could be because of the infection, that he doesn't wants to forget about it.

I watched the show at 3am then got really confused because it was good then watched it 2 more times until the morning

Where I watched it again

Then it felt like a feaver dream and I didnt know if it was real so I watched it a few more times at night

Then I woke up and because I didnt sleep it didnt feel real anyway

So today I got a good night's sleep and im watching it today to MAKE SURE its real

So here's my analysis

The show isnt good because it tries to be, its good because it doesn't

The humor is so well thought out and perfectly alligns with the target audience, because the joke are the kinda jokes everyone's thinking- even if some of which are bad, youre the viewer and thats what you were thinking, so its good or funny to you

And theres literallt 10 characters each with known archetypes whom we LITERALLY ALREADY KNOW by their first lines because of how engraved they are into our society??????

And more like you can feel like you know them already before you even met them so the deaths hit harder?????

Using this kind of character development is a big risk if it doesn't align with the show but among us did it right with the nostalgic unoriginal plot, scenes and overall impression. Because of this they took the cringe and used it well making funny scenes that accurately deception the characters and their interactions as the people who only lived for a few episodes still got whole, complete characters using the lack of the viewers own imagination to communicate attachment to these characters and the plot????????

And whats more the entire show was marketed to the target audience perfectly, I.e people who played among us as 9 or 10 years old aka 15 TO 14 YEAR OLD????S???

PERFECTLY UTILISING DARK HUMOR CONTRASTING WITH THE SCENES IN WHICH GORE IS PRESENT BECAUSE THEYRE JUST AMONG US GUYS SO THE SENSUTIVITY DOESNT HAVE TO BE HIGH IN ORDER TO FEEL SAD ABOUT THEIR DEATHS BECAUSE OF SUCH A ACCURATE REPRESENTATION OF THE CHARACTER???????

IN TADC THE THEME OF ARCHTYPES WERE USED BUT NIT COMMUNICATED THROUGHLY BECAUSE IF HOW THREE DIMENTIONAL THE CHARACTERS WERE SO THE DEVELOPMENT SEEMED RUSHED AND ON JAX'S COMMENT ABOUT HOW EVERYONE FIT INTO ARCHTYPES DIDNT SIT AS WELL BECAUSE PREVUOUSLY ALL THE CHARACTERS HAD ALREADY FRICKING PROVED WHAT THEY WERE JNDEED THREE DIMENTIONAL SO THE COMMENT WAS NOT AS SELF AWARE AS THE GOOSWORKS TEAM WANTED IT TO BE IN CONTRAST TO THE PERFECTLY USED ARCHETYPES TROPE THAT AMONG BUILT ATTACTCHMENT TO CHARACTERS WITH, BEING SELF AWARE EVEN AS THEY INDEED DO NOT EXPRESS SO DURING THE SERIES??????

ALL🥹🥹ALL THE CHARACTES WERE MEMLRABLE AND DISTINCT BECAUSE 🥹🥹🥹BECAUSE OF HOW INGRAVED THEY ARE INTO OUR CULTURE AND PEOPLE SAY THE AMONG US SHOW WAS RELEASED 5 YEARS TOO LETE BUT NO BECAUSE THE TARGET AUDIENCE HAS GROWN USED TO THESE TYPES AS THEIR TIME IN THE INTERNET AND IN MEDIA WHATSOEVER SO TEHY WOULD COMMUNICATE THE AWARENESS TO THE PEOPLE WATCHIGNT THE AHOW EVEN WITH A FEW SAD PARTS MIXED INTO THE GOOFY YOU STILL CNT TAKE THEM THAT SERIOUSLT BECAUSE🥹🥹🥹🥹BECAUSE ITS SO AMONG US SO VERY INTERNWT AND THE PERON WHO MADE THIS FRICKING SHOW IS A GENIUS 🥹🥹🥹

accurate deception of me yapping my balls of

on a somewhat related note I think this trial reflects our society’s willingness to believe anything if it’s fed to us by something that looks official, I would even go so far as to say some people would believe anything

In the video no one was shown to have an ounce of doubt, fully believing in the commonwealth justice system despite not bothering to fully investigate saps’ claims, they didn’t even outwardly question the suspiciously short trial.

State smp reflects so many real world beliefs and events incredibly well, and I will forever be ill about that.

- analysis anon

YES YES YES!!! State smp is just a pure reflection of our society the amount of criticism(accidental or not) in almost every single interaction to the way our society is built is ACTUALLY insane.

(yeah, Saps can never escape the dehumanization it's actually crazy)

THANKSS ANALYSIS ANON!!!

In the beginning of the film, Elinor disapproves of Merida having a bow and wants her to act like a princess. Yet she let her get a bow at such a young age and even encouraged practicing. She's seen wearing her crown but has a purple dress with no designs. Her outfit showed how neutral she was- she balanced being a queen and a mother, but it was almost because she seemed to have no personality herself besides those two things, or even her own ideas.

When Elinor's wearing green, she's fully engulfed in her queenly role. She now has developed a bold personality and style, but her whole personality/persona is just being the queen. She now has developed her own ideas, but only the ones she deems acceptable. So it's kind of ironic when her dress rips off when she's a bear, her "shedding" her former persona.

But at the end of the movie, she's finally putting her hair down like her daughter and wearing her daughter's signature colour blue. And yet, she still keeps the regalia her green dress had but now on her new gown- gold trim, styled belt, draped sleeves and such. Not only this, but she chooses not to go back in the forest for her old crown or make a new one. She finally has her balance- being Merida's mother and a queen on the side. But this time, it isn't like the neutral stance like in the beginning of the movie, Elinor chooses this balance for herself, while finding her personality along the way.

☆☆☆

King Fergus on the other hand, showed all three colours throughout the film in his clothing pattern- purple, green, and blue. However, each colour popped in different lighting and plot changes.

When he's having fun with family, the lighting is more cooler, making the blue pop from his clothing.

When he has to face certain royal duties, Merida's betrothal arrangements, or when he thought he lost Elinor, the lighting turns red and makes his clothing look more green, showing his focus on the kingdom and queen.

At the end of the movie, where everyone is watching Merida cover her mother with the tapestry, Fergus' clothing becomes discoloured, with the purple only really showing- expressing his confusion and defeat.

Throughout all those colour changes, the purple is always seemed to be paired with it. When the green and purple colours were paired, he was either in a blind rage or going along with whatever plans the kingdom had in store. When the purple was paired with blue, he was blindly only acting as a father and husband, forgetting everything else around him.

☆☆☆

I feel like the purple represented when they let other people or rules take over themselves. Green represents kingdom loyalty, and the blue matched freedom.
