How 'The OA' Connects to 'A Murder At The End Of The World!'

[@deepcut7788]

What Theory or Topic should I cover next?

[@rirodoodles986]

I spotted so many hidden easter eggs in AMATEOTW that directly referenced The OA. Each episode has at least one. Even with the 5 seats around the campfire mirroring the 5 haptive cages, symbolism hidden in the background of a lot of shots, circles and triangles everywhere, even a kitchen darby goes into looks EXACTLY like Hap’s kitchen when OA is making a sandwich. There’s just too many to reference here but I would love a detailed analysis or a side to side comparison of all the hidden details and easter eggs. Even if this story isn’t a direct follow on, they are definitely letting their fans subtley in on how the OA story would have developed.

[@beyond_the_tequila_rift3194]

I wish the OA would've continued!! It was one of the coolest and trippiest shows ever!!!

[@Kiiitty14]

I just need them to at least tell us the rest of the oa story if it never gets picked up to finish the last 3 seasons

[@ItsArchieYo]

Give us a book or something

[@xsabirx]

They’re living in the 3rd season right now 😂🤫

[@840happycamper840]

I had to check this show out because of Brit and Zal and I'm enjoying it so far. But the OA is still like the best thing ive ever watched lol

[@blondies2755]

Facts. I’ve rewatched the oa so many times! They need to bring it back. 🙏

[@petersaysthings]

One really interesting thing I found that connects this was the scene were Darby enters her apartment after the book reading, she walks through a door labeled 2. In the OA episode SYZYGY, Karim leaves OA at the bar while he explores the back stairwell of the club. He checks Door #2 but turns back. But the most telling part is the background music in both scenes. It's the same exact song. So I think you're right about A Murder mirroring season 2.

[@deepcut7788]

I appreciate all the clues I’m not nearly as good at examining those details and I’ll be checking them out for my next videos.

[@queenofhearts6127]

You are right. Just checked and it is exactly the same music. Good spot 👍🏼

[@sonja7halcyon]

Would you be able to give times stamps for that part in Syzygy please?

[@tyagirodriguez4947]

I'm just praying that Hulu is being constantly bombarded with petitions to pick up The OA and continue the show

[@maetaylor5677]

at this point ive rewatched the OA like 4 times ..no joke. Interested to hear this theory.

[@deepcut7788]

Id check out the longer 45 minute breakdown we have of how the OA would have ended, and we'll have another big one coming after this new series ends in two weeks.

[@mattyrr9627]

SAME!! And I'm just looking for subtlest details that indicate it's gonna continue lol, I still believe it will just pop up out of nowhere in a few years!

[@blondies2755]

Me, too! They need to bring it back. 🙏

[@andysauruss]

I thought this too that A Murder At The End of The World could potentially be season 4 and this 4th dimension.

[@pointmima]

and what would season 3 be? im mid season 2 now and I want more Brit-like media

[@CodyKaleKap]

SPOILER ALERT. Sian and Darby’s helmets, when taken off, remind me of the drowning machine in Season 1 used for NDEs in Hap’s basement. And it also almost killed Sian.

[@sonja7halcyon]

So I just watched this video today and decided to go back and watch Part 2 of The OA. In the first episode there is a kid with pink hair who rants and raves about “solving the puzzle” (an echo of Darby solving the murder?) Also, just realised that Nina/Prairie’s boyfriend in this is Pierre Ruskin who is also a tech genius/billionaire!!!

[@rempwnz]

this is sooo deep that i even got lost in the breakdown

[@daniloaizart1100]

I like the way some names in A MURDER sounds similar to OA seasons, theres a moment when Lee seeks for her son asking: WHERE´S ZOOMER? and sounds exactly the same as OA looking for Homer. Also in OA part II there´s a girl, pink hair named Darmi, nursing at the Clinic. Rohan name also reminds me of Rhoda whilliams from Another Earth, 2011 film by zal and brit, i like to feel all their filmography so cohesive and round

[@rodrigobenavidezpugliese8336]

while I watched "A Murder.." I felt like Lee is OA and Zoomer is Homer in a new dimention

[@deepcut7788]

about to upload a video explaining that.

[@555sothis6]

The meaning of the name Darby has reference to deer and so does the name Buck. Rhoda means rose so might have a connection to the rose window

[@daniloaizart1100]

@@555sothis6WHAT this is beautiful

[@theogturnip]

this would also explain that random awkward moment when OA realizes Darmi the nurse and Homer might’ve been flirting/had a relationship and for a split second you think she might be jealous but theres so much going on it gets glossed over but we all know nothing is by accident in this show!!!!

[@thatJAWNraps]

if they were gonna cut the OA early then the end of S2 was perfect cuz we're basically living S3 right now - OA's just playing Brit Marling lol

[@AutoAlchemy]

You can't spell WHOA without OA

[@gavinjones3933]

And then there is the meta theory that season 3 was the real world cancellation and kick back… the higher dimension.

[@nqobilemsomi3656]

Yaaaassss🤩 I am definitely going to keep an eye on this channel

[@maetaylor5677]

This whole video is pretty intense. But I like it. You are making alot of connections, and I wonder if Brit or Zal know what you know- to leave these breadcrumbs? I will def check out your other video. My sense is these 2 shows aren't connected yet this season? Not overtly. Clearly we see some similar elements with the characters. Like Darbys short hair. And Andy is very similar looking to HAP. But I see much else other than that. Personally. But prehaps with another season Brit and Zal would maybe add further OA elements. I think the potential is there.They have alot of loyalty to fanbase like myself and you of course, and I think they really enjoy weaving things and elements into projects. They keep stoking this fire of re-buting the OA on their socials with very cryptic messages.The OA I think has a bigger cult following than any other of their projects they've done thus-far. As creators they are at the mercy of FX or people who pay for these projects to be made. I would love to be surprised. But at this point I just enjoy seeing whatever they make next. One of a kind filmakers/writers/ thinkers the two of them.

[@livelifefamilyzone]

I wouldn't be surprised if Brit and Zal would put OA continuation to their new series and will be like easter egg. 😊

[@amandakrishott8222]

Who is Darby??? Scene from 5:01 is from which sezon?

[@the-birbo]

Darby is the main character of the show Murder at the End of the World, she wasn't a character in The OA

[@RaimarLunardi]

So I would assume either 3rd Season or 5th Season would be heavily linked to The Recordist? or even Another Earth????

[@deepcut7788]

Another earth was season two. The recordist is also season four. Whole video here for it: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rXypY3aqrLlrg6Msi=7_-fN7OdiW1JbNtC

[@dnlsrv12345]

Literally gave me chills

[@deepcut7788]

Consider checking out the Giant OA break downs we have on the channel! The hour and a half one includes a finalized version of how a murder at the end of the world factors in.

[@Christianthemagician_]

I really like the same story different cast, very cool view

[@gottiecapone]

I read somewhere there already is a pink haired girl in the OA that represents Darby but maybe they meant the drug user wit pink haired either way

[@sholah.8560]

mind blown!

[@stellarjen13]

I’ve heard the theory before of the Haptives just being voices in her head …but what about when she regains her sight? What am I missing?

[@deepcut7788]

You’d have to watch the full video on my channel for the whole explanation. But she’s only claiming she saw them in her story, we don’t know that she’s telling the truth.

[@stellarjen13]

@@deepcut7788 I did watch that video too! But this one sparked that question for me…but that makes sense! I guess I was taking it at face value that she was telling the truth about being blind and then being able to see again… but the whole point is that we are only experiencing it through her telling the story-got it!

[@mlodowygladasz336]

GREAT VIDEO!

[@PatrickPalattaoJr]

Bill is Steve (not Homer) who is in relationship with angie who is also a hacker like darby.

[@deepcut7788]

I thought Darby was Steve.

[@sonja7halcyon]

@@deepcut7788 I thought you said Darby was Brit?

[@the-birbo]

I completely agree with you. Although Brit and Zal have said there's no connection to The OA, if it were somehow connected, Bill and Darby would be their universe's Steve and Angie.

[@the-birbo]

Something I find kind of interesting is that Brit's character in A Murder at the End of the World is romantically involved with a big bad tech guy, just like The OA's Nina in season 2. If anything, to me this isn't really a new season of The OA but another story in that multiverse that maybe The OA never ends up in.

[@deepcut7788]

@@the-birbo wow good catch, that would make it parallel season four. I did not include that in my videos but there’s a lot more murder at the end of the world connections in our big video about the oa that’s an hour and a half long

[@theconcreteshamans]

Have you seen 30 Coins? You would dig it.

[@deepcut7788]

My friend keeps telling me that but I haven’t

[@fretboardwarriors]

I still think it’s possible that the cancellation is part of it all.

[@LadyHautet]

I know Brit came out and said that MATEOTW has nothing to do with OA, but I think there are way way too many similarities for that to be true.

[@catelyngrace6903]

It could be that because OA got canceled, that they subconsciously put elements of the next seasons of OA into this new TV show.

[@Sab69san]

I love it that série

[@theconcreteshamans]

We both thought this is set in the oa

[@billyafro1]

Nice theory Dude

[@thatJAWNraps]

bruh i JUST watched you on the other OA video saying that AMATEOtW was gonna be UNRELATED - its gone from a stretch to 'this guys just tryna get clicks' smh

[@deepcut7788]

Errr both videos say mostly the same thing they just have different perspectives on how they relate based on us having more information at the end of the season. Calm down.

[@beccalangner3257]

Loved oa

[@i.am.arcana]

whooooooooaaaaaaa

[@RH1812]

Sadly I don’t see it as linked. AMATEOTW was no where near as good as The OA. If Issacs has been in the Owen role, maybe

[@thechronicnoizeco.6675]

Casual easy viewing….

[@Fishieable]

just watched "mateotw" (lol cant be bumed to write the title sorry) while watching it with a friend i believe i know the murder mystery spoolers just i case i'm right. bill killed himself for the sake of what's her face/hair colour? not been killed by who ever forced him to kill himself. bill knew the cults ultimate plan and so from the first case has been , guided her life, whilst also learning all about her own quirks. in doing so has left a bread crumb trail for her too follow leading to the cults activities' and plans for the world, by making her investigate his murder, by knowing how her mind works, this lets him, after death, leave a perfect trail for her to follow, she then uncovers the real reason those girls were also murdered. and ultimately get revenge on his and the other victims behalf. he might of had something to do with those child murders himself giving him a perfect motivation to end up killing himself, for which reason is left to the viewer to decided on. so seeing skinny nerd girl gave him some one else who saw a connection to the earing girls murders found a path of redemption for himself after death.

[@queenofhearts6127]

Bill also left Darby in that motel room as he realized she was too obsessed with her work to truly love him. He literally said to her something along the lines of “you will never love me until I’m dead”. At the moment Bill died, she did finally realize that she loved him and he then became her obsession. Could it be that Bill did indeed kill himself because he knew Darby would obsess over solving the mystery of his death - ultimately leading her to discover the truth of what is really happening at the retreat?

[@evmarlon687]

Que viagem é essa irmão? 😂

[@allthescraps5338]

You lost me at Bill looks like Homer 🥴

[@queenofhearts6127]

Bill’s character does remind me of Homer although he doesn’t physically look like him. In the OA, when Nina/Prairie is trying to convince Homer he knew and loved her in the other dimension he can’t remember. I see similarities with Bill and Darby’s relationship. He loves her but she doesn’t love him back. It hurts him so much he leaves and says to her at one point “you’ll only love me when I’m dead”. Could they have always loved each other but she can’t remember and he can’t cope with it so he leaves her and starts a new life as an artist, knowing that in time they’ll meet again? When they meet at the retreat he asks her to “come and get warm with me” and she refuses. He finally realizes he has to kill himself for her to love him. He was a hacker after all and he probably hacked into the Morphine cabinet for this purpose. I don’t know, my brain is all over the place with this 🫤.

[@JLinksTV]

This is just such BS lol

[@lastsonofthewest2444]

A Murder at the End of the World descended in to Left Wing, woke, agitprop. Found it unwatchable, although I suffered through it all, including the ridiculous ending. I was also critical of Brit's acting on the newer series, and also of the cute star of the show. Brit was platic throughout, not once did she take me on any of her many emotional journeys from the OA. The younger actress who plays Darby, was powerful in her flashback scenes, weak in the short blond hair, current timeline. Don't know if that was part of the director's desire, or something else. Perhaps my incredibly high valuation of the OA, was always going to let me down.

[@the-birbo]

You're an insufferable loser lmao

[@crcurran]

I really hope you are wrong about the connection to the OA. I liked that show but it's cancelled. If there is a connection to the OA that's relevant to this story, I'm done with Brit and Zal shows.

[@4hoofd]

Why would a connection bother you that much?

[@marlew6629]

lol

[@M.G-K]

Loved this! Maybe we’ll learn that the machines introduced in AMATEOTW Episode 3 are somehow related to the machines that travelers use to traverse dimensions. 🫨

[@deepcut7788]

they did say they are designed to make tunnels for people to safely travel.
