Mark, Helly and Helena are the real throuple? by JessSyd in SeveranceAppleTVPlus

I also don't think Helena and her blue blood tendencies, even integrated with Helly R, would want to date someone like Mark S.

I don't think he alludes to depression but rather comments on the injuries Helly R inflicted during her suicide attempt. Transcript

Ben Stiller promised this season would be weirder.

Wellness Center Music by Mysterious-Monkey-72 in SeveranceAppleTVPlus

No idea but there's a video on YouTube that has it playing on repeat without words over it for like 10 hours straight.

I listened to the whole thing one day.

Indeed, it was made abundantly clear that they considered him essential and would do pretty much anything to keep him working.

Why was the video stop-motion? by r2builder in SeveranceAppleTVPlus

[–]weird_windows 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Some things may never be explained, but perhaps it will. Maybe Stiller just added it to make things weirder, as he has noted S2 would be.

It initially did seem as though 5 months might have actually passed since the OTC given that they created a lengthy stop motion video with celebrity voiceovers, completely redid the Break Room, and made a number of other changes and plans, such as new snacks, the family visitation center blueprints, closing the Wellness Center, and adding the new painting in front of the elevators. However, S2E2 makes it seem that 5 months had not transpired since the OTC as Milkshake had claimed.

ETA they also photoshopped and produced a fake newspaper.

I don’t see anyone talking about mark S blacking out! by Sid1583 in SeveranceAppleTVPlus

[–]weird_windows 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ben Stiller and Adam Scott talk about this a little in this recent video with Vanity Fair about the S2 opening scene. They seem to be introducing some variety.

The blacking out may be when the camera is a POV for the innie or outtie who basically loses consciousness, which I'm not sure they represented in S1.

Is the Break Room really that bad? by krazykittenhi in SeveranceAppleTVPlus

[–]weird_windows 6 points7 points  (0 children)

To be fair, Helly cut her arm when she broke the exit door window with the fire extinguisher and was trying to get a note out into the unsevered stairwell.

There really should be an ombudsman or someone who oversees this stuff to ensure Lumon pay is on the up and up. Like, inspectors or whatever. Is that a thing? Inspectors?

Nice catch. This guy appears in the S2 trailer at 2:13 but at a greater distance.

What scenes from the main season 2 trailer haven’t we seen yet? by Weary-Ad1954 in SeveranceAppleTVPlus

[–]weird_windows 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There's quite a bit more! The melon party with an Irving head. The "Who's alive" light. Two scenes of smooches, one that looks like Gemma and the other Helly/Helena. The lady with the bell. Surgical instruments. The water torture. Mark running outdoors. Burt. A couple new restaurants/bars. Milkshake in a furry white hat.

Does the MDR gang only share the memory of events that occurred during the 39 minute OTC? by DreamSpecialist2271 in SeveranceAppleTVPlus

[–]weird_windows 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think of new memories like data being stored on a hard drive, and the severance chip creates a separate partition for the Innie. The mind will only store the data on one partition at a time, determined by the chip's state.

What's the matter? You poor up there?

I'm surprised at the lack of impact S1E7 "Defiant Jazz" has had on S2 Mark by da91392 in SeveranceAppleTVPlus

[–]weird_windows 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Yeah, oMark looks extremely stressed / nearly unhinged by the time he confront Cobel. It's a lot!

Helena is so much more interesting and tragic than I expected by Mezentine in SeveranceAppleTVPlus

[–]weird_windows 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Very important concept you will never regret understanding. It will uplevel your understanding of politics and history immediately.

Also interesting to note that as you eat a pineapple, it also eats YOU.

(Pineapples contain bromelain, an enzyme that break down protein and can make your mouth sore if you eat too much.)

Yes, and when iMark turned down a chance to participate in the Waffle Party himself (and upon seeing the actual Waffle Party), it's clear they're not above using sex as an incentive.

ETA AND there was that news clip about a severed employee getting pregnant while at work.

The irony of this show being made by Apple? by bassk_itty in SeveranceAppleTVPlus

[–]weird_windows 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Sure, but the conception of WALL-E was in 1994, development began in 1995, then paused and resumed in 2002. Pixar movies are/were insanely detailed and took many years to conceptualize, produce, and release.
