After rewatching this I stand by what I said. In a year full of remakes and direct sequels Baldur's Gate and Mario Wonder were the only ones who brought anything fresh to the table and while Baldur's Gate 3 def deserved the victory people were way too harsh to Mario

Silent Hill 2 remake was snubbed. IDK if it would've won but it deserved a chance man

Great video, Acer. Glad to hear a run down on all these, many which I haven’t heard of before. My only complaint is that balatro should have been first. -KG

This is the best video on the characters comparison to the deadly sins. I thought that there was an overlap of the sins, I was only sure about Prospero’s association with lust and Napoleon’s gluttony. You have explained this wonderfully, it makes complete sense now

I bet you look nothing like your character 100$ says your a fatty

Can't believe I caught this so early! Great to see you back! Really enjoyed this, I agree with most of your rankings but I'd personally swap Midnight mass and Usher. I loved both, but the oppressive atmosphere of Midnight Mass was so well done, even when its not frightening you feel on edge, and the angels/vampires were incredible! I also didn't know that The midnight club was meant to have a 2nd season but that explains a lot. I enjoyed the show but don't remember much about it. I agree with you both on it would've benefited from a 2nd season to really come into itself. I'd love to see your thoughts on A24 horror or Jordan peele films!

I don't really see the family as the seven deadly sins. I see each child moreso representing a portion of Roderick's own sins, each choosing to repeat aspects of his own flaws that he himself never paid for. And Lenore is the potential for good that Roderick and Madeline chose not to fulfill.

Yooo. I didn’t know you made this channel. Anyways how are you doing. It’s Lolbit btw.

Excellent analysis. I'm kinda surprised how few views and subscribers you have!

Yellow is the color of fat, which could be associated with gluttony. Blue is the color of depression which could be associated with sloth. A Little ableist of me but there it is.

Hear me out on this: Camille is Sloth. I mean, I *know,* but if you look at how the sin of sloth was originally defined in theological sources, it's not necessarily about laziness qua laziness; the connotations are of *spiritual* torpor. Nihilistic despair, cynicism, and a sense of utter fatalistic indifference -- not even caring that you don't care -- to the point of self-annihilation. Camille being a workaholic who's utterly dead inside and accepts her fate calmly is actually a really neat spin on that. Which means you can reshuffle to make Victorine Pride and Frederick Wrath, which I personally prefer.

Great video! 🎉

always love me a good poe-based netflix series

I think most were spot on but I'd argue: Victorine was Pride, her inability to admit failure wound up being her ultimate downfall. It was pride that led her to take far more credit for their experiments than she truly deserved. Napoleon was Wrath, he kept his emotions reigned in with cocktails of drugs but in their absence he let his rage overtake him leading to his downfall. And Camille was Gluttony, but not in the 'food' sense. She was a glutton for information and control as well as being something of a workaholic. The white perhaps representing a blank canvas or emptiness that never seemed to be filled, and she seemed to share a close affinity with Leo and his pursuits of pharmaceutical satisfaction.

I do think the colors were very deliberate to each character. The sins, not so much. Every sibiling was guility from some form of sin. You can say Leo was Lust, because of his infidelity and his "reputation" of a stud. You could give pride to all of them, Envy fits perfectly to Camille, who hated Vic for being what she could't be, But also Perry, because he wanted to be taken as seriously as anybof his other sibilings. It reminds me of the theory for the Cranes from Haunting of Hill House...Stages of grief? Which was never confirmed by none of the original cast or crew.

If I’m being honest I do associate Lenore with something, but not a sin I associate her with the heavenly virtue of kindness as she is the only good usher and was willing to defy her father and help her mother

Hehe, Skeeter

Great video! I'm only at Victorine rn but will catch up as I get through the series! You've laid everything out so clearly so far though! Never thought about them representing the deadly sins, but now it seems so obvious!

Honestly I didn't think about colors while watching this show at all, I was too gripped by the mystery 😅 But all that you said makes total sense, so kudos!

Yeah the colour theory theming is a bit silly. Like for some there's the clear connection towards their sins, but for many the colour grading is mostly to seperate out the characters, to make them feel more isolated and stuck in their own worlds, to seperate out their themes, not to actually brand there themes. Except for Tammy and Prospero, but green for envy and red for lust are so strongly associated it would have been strange not to lean into it as they did, also Prospero's death being based on the masque of the red death meant his colour HAD to be red anyway. Camile I don't understand how anyone can think her colour was anything but white. He hair is white, her outfits are all white as the focal colour, and of course white is perfect for pride. It's pristine, perfect, untouchable, sterile, angelic, all things well connected with pride.

2023 is over now, well shit, merry Christmas acer!

I’m not sure how you wandered across my timeline, but you’ve got a good thing going on here! Keep up the good work and consider me subscribed!

RE4 should win, which is also unfair. It’s a remake, we’ve already played it before. Spiderman 2 couldve been A LOT better. But GoTY, mmhh dont think so. Mario? Bitch plz, next. Alan Wake is SOOO BORING AND LAME. Walking simulator snooze fest. Zelda, mmhh tough one, I would competes with RE4 for sure. Baldur’s Gate, meehh

Gonna have to find KG with my own hands for saying every mario game is the same when talking about the game where they change up the entire play style of 2d mario
