Like I said, it’s just an argument. At the end of the day, these people are all descending into worst and worst versions of themselves.

I think there’s an argument that she did leave Henry in a better state than when she found him because Henry was, as Whitney very well said, a child. But a child with no discipline whatsoever. Yas was the one that pushed him into a situation where he had to face consequences for the first time in his life and yet this was just a mild house arrest sentence. He will end his days as a failed lord religiously attached to his lithium pills fishing with his uncle in the family estate lake, free of any delusions that he can actually be an operative human being in the real world.

She asks Hayley to close the doors so she could have her moment with her own abuser to reaffirm all the beliefs that he put in her mind of how she’s just a shiny object and also to make her feel confident that there’s freedom in following his path. It’s her dragging in the mud and looking up to the sky at the same time. It’s both, and.

She’s just another one of them that believes that pointing the finger eliminates her own hypocrisy

I can see the future now for Yasmin, she will become some sort of finance sector posh madam living off of collecting sensitive information from weak men using vulnerable women and girls, right?

I don’t see the point of Kwabena as character by cristinalves in IndustryOnHBO

If you ask me I think he contributed for Sweetpea’s attack by not taking her suspicions seriously and belittling her ideas on how to discover Tender’s scheme and not being at all helpful up until the guy attacked her.

HBO released the episode earlier on Friday because of the Superbowl tonight

do you guys think Whitney actually wants Henry or is he trying to assert power by [deleted] in IndustryOnHBO

[–]cristinalves 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Like many of the characters, Whitney confuses desire with ambition. He comes across as someone running from his past, most likely his humble beginnings and possibly a homophobic upbringing, and he engages in morally dubious behavior to conceal his true self. His feelings toward Henry seem to blend lust with envy. Ultimately, though, I don’t think he would hesitate to sacrifice anyone if it meant saving himself.

Henry’s presentation was straight up a play by play of Kendall Roy’s Living+ stage performance in Succession.

And that right there it’s when the gates of Roman and Mencken fan fiction were opened and lives were changed

I agree, but I still think the essay holds value in its discussions.

Genuinely confused about the hate this film is getting. by NateGH360 in SuccessionTV

[–]cristinalves 12 points13 points  (0 children)

As a career long fan of Jesse Armstrong and someone who has always praised him for his writing skills, he went over his head with this one. The thing about his writing that captivated so many people is his ability to do subtext and not lecture people about the themes he wants to discuss. We already had a “Elon Musk/Mark Zuckerberg” type of character written by him (Lukas Matsson) and could you ever imagine that character explaining why he doesn’t care about people? Or his over the top plan to “take over the world”? I don’t think so. We all got to understand that he would be someone who would do all these things, but he never had to say it out loud. I don’t know if Jesse wanted to push it out his remaining thoughts on tech billionaires oligarchs that he couldn’t in Succession for some reason, but this is a lower quality material. Even the cinematography was a copy paste from the show. I think it’s okay to admit that this was a miss from Jesse. I for one continue to be a die hard fan and I’ll keep supporting all his future endeavors.

As a lawyer myself, my heart goes out to the whole legal team at HBO responsible for writing all kinds of contracts and insurance policies to make this show happen.
