No One Lives Forever (Worm AMV)

And then it turns out that that shit was literally all done by his Shard and the challenge was a illusion at best. What a pretentious fuck.

@@squidsquad8697 I don't understand the metaphor, can someone explain please?

[@martinfranzen5490]

​@@lessens_2004I think it means that the struggle of controlling the nine using positive and negative manipulation was Jack's greatest pleasure. Killing was fun but he was truly into breaking down capes mentaly until they danced to his tune. Its probably why he was the most fond of Bonesaw as he had twisted her the most.

[@mightbeapersonmaybe8379]

Me too buddy. Me too

[@AssimilateAndChill]

On the one hand, god yes I desperately want it for that exact reason. On the other, such a big part of Worm is Taylor’s (and other characters during interludes) introspection and thought process, and that doesn’t translate well out of written media. I’m worried that too much would be lost in translation, and it would end up not feeling like Worm.

[@willwh9228]

Yeah that true a big part about worm is when you look into anyone point of view they feel like real people and amain character of their own story. And that because how well wildblow writes them. Every point of view in worm has a bias including Taylor (we all love her but let face it she done some messed up stuff that we all justified because we know the thought process behind it) so it would be very hard to capture that in any other format. I do think the show would still be good however if they stayed faithful since it would atleast get people interested in the original webserial.

[@erching12]

I heard rumors that it was being looked into but nothing solid.

[@GasperV0]

Adaptation VFX does great work if you want to see some movie quality shit. Also yeah, a lot of a narration would have to be used

So ofc she's like pants-shittingly terrifying but like... bonesaw is objectively fucking hilarious. Some entity looked at this fucking infant and went _"yeah. Yeah okay. Mhm. Okay. So you're gonna have powers"_ and shes like _"omg yay I'm gonna be awesome im gonna be a hero"_ and then the entity just,, _"oh of course you are honey. Now go make a gun out of some legs"_

3:48 I laughed when I saw this drawing because of how much it undersells the situation

[@adamhayche8412]

Something cool I realized at about 2:20, Cherish is missing two fingers on her left hand, and when Jack tells her she has to do all the tests a second time, he holds up two fingers on his left hand, mocking her.

I’m curious of how non worm readers would think of Riley

[@alexs5814]

Well, tbh, the idea of a slasher loli with a barrels worth of issues is not quite a new one. Hmm... now that i think about it... Dilandau from Vision of Escaflowne is pretty much a poster child for "Imma take a child and transform them into a Monster." Zaibach is like Jack in this regard, just with more magic and less shardfuckery...

[@number4497]

If they watch anime, they’ll love her. Otherwise, probably creeped out and intrigued

[@andrewsauer9669]

I wonder how non worm readers would react to the scene where she makes friends with a pedophile... In almost any situation where a little girl is interacting with a pedophile the little girl is the one to be worried about... but the exact opposite is the case, he can't do shit to her and she could easily make him desperately wish for death

[@notsae66]

Jack represents everything wrong with the Cycle, and why it could never achieve what the Entities want. Jack is pretty much the embodiment of the Shard's ideals and goals, spreading conflict and destruction and generally enshittening the world as much as he can. This produces lots of novel situations and conflicts, creates all sorts of triggers and second triggers, yet ultimately achieves nothing and is usually more self destructive than anything. Sphere was potentially on route to figuring out something with his specialty, yet thanks to the mechanisms of the Entities he became a force actively seeking to ensure no one can ever even seriously try to go down paths that might actually provide the Entities with useful data. Jack kills more capes than he creates, and twists the ones he gets his hands on into forces of destruction, or in other words, forces of _entropy,_ the exact thing his benefactors want to defeat. Because of their shocking lack of creativity and shortsightedness despite being such long lived creatures, the Entities destroy everything that might potentially solve their problems.
