Why exactly? The finale with that inbred killer in his old Spanish fort with his stick figures was tense as fuck, and Rust having a vision was oddly satisfying

Ligotti's nihilism/pessimism in the show was interesting despite how hardcore it is.

>>80107271
>Reddit and Marty

>>80108098
The fact that the almost Lovecraftian "Yellow King" was some inbreeding hillbilly was both unsatisfying but also understandable. One of the posters had the title "Man is the cruelest animal" which is applicable. I guess the only way the finale could be satisfying is if you interpret the show as how humans rationalize suffering. Rust has his own way, and others imagine some kind of cosmic horror entity behind everything. But its just people who are evil

>>80108233
Yea I think how people cope with the apparent chaos of life was a central theme of the show.

It's sad how many people just jerked off over everything Rust said while dismissing Marty as "the dumb one", I think this caused some to miss the point and be unsatisfied with the ending. They saw it as the show doing a 180 but "Rust is right" was never a theme of the show if anything "Rust's way of coping with life is unhealthy" was more of a theme.

>>80108233

Hillbilly wasn't the Yellow King, though.

>>80108567
Do we know for sure? We know there were more members of the cult still out there but do we know for sure the guy Rust got was not the yellow king?

>>80108662

Yes. The effigy rigged up behind the altar with all the yellow fabric is the Yellow King. Hillbilly was just a lunatic who thought he was transcending.

The cult existed before him. It exists outside of him.

>>80108662
the Hillbilly in the final episode wasn't even a real member of the cult. He was just a nephew or cousin of the main family who got molested and abused by them when he was young. The main cult probably didn't take any of that Yellow King stuff seriously; it was just some weird secret club ritual for them. But for the Hillbilly, who was one of their victims, seeing the cult's rituals as a child became his defining life experience even as that experience warped his young inbred mind. He turned the things he saw and heard into a personal religion and took it further than the original cult ever did, and continued to hurt people long after the cult who hurt him broke up and dispersed.
One of the show's big themes was how people who are hurt by monsters continue to be affected by it for years and decades after the fact, and will themselves go on to affect others in negative ways, perpetuating the cycle. This is illustrated by the fact that the true cult, the guys who started all of the Yellow King shit in the first place, are largely gone by the time the show takes place. Its members are all off doing their own things by themselves and whatever nefarious activity they may currently be up to is no longer occurring in the backwater location where the show takes place. It's the people they hurt all those decades ago when they were still active in the area that are still doing evil shit

>>80108384
Yeah, I think that was the point. He was kind of Rust's foil. Rust is an asshole who no one will ever love, but he is fair, and he sees the bleak truth of the world. Essentially, Rust is a good, moral person. Everyone likes Marty, and he's normal. He sees that the bleak truth of the world doesn't really matter, you just gotta do your own normal thing. He's immoral though, and is essentially a bad person, even though he's just a regular guy

>>80108823
Ah right. Forgot about the effigy thing.

>>80109362
Gonna need some examples of how you know for sure the rich/powerful members of the cult aren't active in that shit anymore. It's an interesting interpretation but was there anything that actually made it explicit that the cult was largely disbanded and it was just this one deluded hick and a handful of idiots left doing it?

>bad guy is a christian conservative
/pol/ BTFO

>>80109495
Right. Rust isn't a bad guy but he has allot of problems, Marty is well adjusted but not really a good person although he likes to think he is. Over the course of the show they both grow, Marty realizes he's kind of an asshole and changes and Rust finally accepts that he does have feelings for other people and was deeply hurt by the loss of his daughter rather than just trying to bury his feelings under layers of "it don't matter, none of this matters".

I think the scene where they talk at the revival tent really lays it out well but sadly many people just took it as "oh shit Rust roast's christfags!" while totally ignoring the fact that Marty calls him out for lying to himself just like the people he's criticizing and it's not that Rust's views are wrong necessarily but the idea that you can bury your emotions with nihilism is unhealthy and wrong.

>>80109657
>Its just assumed that he isn't part of the cult anymore because of his high profile position and age

I never assumed that but I can see how it's possible. It's very possible he's still involved as well though.

>>80109495
>>80109811
Good posts.

>>80109518
The two named members of the cult we know of are Edwin Tuttle(the governor, never shown on screen) and Billy Lee Tuttle(the preacher who sets up the religious hate crimes task force in episode 1). Both of them seem to have moved on. Billy Lee's conversation with Rust in his library seems to imply that all of the shit he was involved with happened a long time ago and his only interest in it in the present is to make sure none of the crap they did back then gets dredged up. He may still do evil shit, but the specific group of rural dudes he used to belong to is obviously no longer active and operating, because the ritual murder victims have a gap of a few decades between his time and when they start up again. And when they start up again, he is as in the dark as Rust is about who is actually committing the recent murders. It's why he is so desperate to keep Rust away; if he knew who was doing it he would just have the guy whacked and then bulldoze the weird rape fort

>>80107271

shame it has virtually no rewatch value.

Without the mystery, it becomes a bunch of mundane police work and silly monologues.

>>80109565
I know it's been a few years, but it wasn't a yokel. The guy was a relative (illegitimate son?) of one of the most powerful political families in Louisiana.

>>80109774
It was in the deep south. That's all they have down there. Even the democrats are technically conservative.

I think it might be Twin Peaks season 1 t b h

>>80109922
But the guy doing it was a relative of theirs. idk man I see where you're coming from but I never took it that way, I assumed they were in on it the whole time and just good at playing dumb.

I see what you're saying though and maybe they weren't it's certainly a plausible theory.

>>80109941
fuck off reddit

>>80109922
The weird rape fort is Carcosa, if not murders, some weird shit was going on there as the black maid said. Rust thought that others believed Tuttle was going to be blackmailed over the videotape and killed him to prevent it.
But I doubt his own brother would do that. So definitely there are still other cultist around. But why they didn't care about Errol, his father, Reggie or Dewall?

>>80111545
what sucked

>>80111182
>But why they didn't care about Errol, his father, Reggie or Dewall?
Well it goes back to my theory that Errol and his crew weren't members of the original cult, and the original cultists weren't aware they were the ones who were committing new murders. Errol was just an unimportant cousin of the Tuttles, and they didn't suspect he was the one who was taking all their secret rituals and using them for new murders because they never inducted him into their conspiracy and didn't realize how much shit he remembered from the time(s) they molested him when he was a kid.

He was basically just a victim of the cult who went nuts and grew up trying to turn his weird cult-rape experience into something that made sense to him. His whole life was an exercise in working through his childhood trauma and trying to make it mean something, hence his "slipping the disk" talk about transcendence. The fact that he was a blood relative of the main cultists and owned the plot of land where they used to conduct ritual murders doesn't mean he had any contact with the cultists in the present; it just means he was the unimportant relative who stayed behind on the old family plot long after the rest of them moved on to bigger and better things

Well, that makes sense, but why they left Carcosa intact? Hey, someone does ritual murders like we did decades ago, why not check the place where we've raped and killed dozens of people and filmed it?

god

>>80112239
>but why they left Carcosa intact?
they never thought it would be found out, also its like their spot, holy place w/e, also the impression I got is no-one messes with hillbilly, everyone senators on down were scared shitless of him.

excellent use of ass and titties

season 2 should have done better with ani

>>80111887

They were actively covering up for the guy. Remember the guy they had kill himself in jail? He said he knew who was doing it. Not to mention the fact that kids were disappearing from Tuttle schools.

Perhaps they thought the old man was still doing it, but still.

>>80112386
No one knows who he is either though, would almost certainly be easier to get rid of him and Carcosa than cover his shit up.

It's possible they knew what he was doing and got some kind of sick pleasure out of it though. Maybe they liked that he was out there and the site was being used.

>>80112457

Yea they knew for sure. Damn anon had me going for a while there I always assumed they were in on it but his theory they were trying to figure it out before Rust was interesting, had me thinking I missed a bunch of stuff.

Still they may not have been actively involved with any murdering at the time themselves, they certainly knew what was up though, I think they let Errol continue because it got them off or maybe they're really "true believers" and saw it as an affront to their god to stop someone doing such holy work.

That's the other thing anon seemed to assert they didn't really believe in the cult and Errol was just crazy, how do we know they didn't believe in it?

>>80112640
very nice one-shot, fucking incredible seeing it for the first time tbqh

>>80112474
idk, I just feel like if they knew exactly who was doing it then they would either make him stop or at least make him slow down. I think it's more likely they had a vague idea that some member of the extended family and/or former cult was likely doing it, but couldn't figure out exactly who. The elderly black woman said that the family was enormous and had swarms of kids running around back in the day, so it seems likely to me that even though they knew it was probably family, and tried to cover it up accordingly, they couldn't narrow it down to which exact offshoot of the family was doing it.

>>80112582
I mean regular people don't know who he is anon

>>80107271

oh, yea of course, but in the cult they do, he's the high dragon? idk the guy who officiates the ceremonies

>>80112736
What if they believed more than you think? Maybe they wouldn't stop him because they truly believed it was right.

>>80112788
Rust shitposts on /x/ he still freaked the fuck out, it was something not meant to be shown,

>>80112837

>>80112788
Rape and murder of Marie Fontenot.

>>80112788

Honestly, their reactions are a flaw for me. Are we really to believe they'd see something that would make them scream like that after working homicide for years?

>>80112994

That's why I'm so interested as to wfat could be happening on that tape. Must be some cannibal corpse type shit

>>80107334
God

>>80112994
Well, Marty is a father of 2 daughters. Seeing a girl get raped, murdered and god knows what else might make a man scream.

>>80112827
I admit that is a possibility, and one I hadn't given much thought to. Mainly because Billy Lee Tuttle didn't come across to me as the sort of guy who really believed in anything. He seemed more like the type of guy who enjoyed using religious rituals and iconography for the sake of aesthetics, and because the contrast between the satanic cult rituals of his private life and the Christian persona of his public life tickled him. This is all based on impressions I got from the actor's performance, though. Nothing concrete.

Billy Lee and the other high ranking Tuttles being true believers in the cult is definitely creepier than my theory and would fit the atmosphere the show was going for.

>>80113097

They don't have rape/murders in LA? He saw a baby that was microwaved.

Marty's isn't that bad. Steve's just way over the top.

>>80113222
And it made him quit his job. So it's not like he wasn't affected by it. We don't know what's on the tape, so it must be some real fucked up shit.

>>80113158
desu I think they were true believers or just so sick they wouldn't stop Errol because they got off on knowing he was doing it, maybe even got off on knowing there was an investigation and they might be caught.

>>80112837
This. It's similar to the very concept of what "the king in yellow" is in it's original story. The king in yellow is a play that makes anyone who sees it go mad. In the show the tape was like the king in yellow play.

Was very meta desu.

>>80113158

Well, he had nude photos of kids in his safe along with the murder tape.

Religion is big money in the South. It could have been just his way to wealth and power.

>>80113386
Just cause he didn't really believe in Christianity doesn't mean he couldn't really believe in something else.

Not saying he must have been a true cultist but I think it's a real possibility.

>>80113293

I suppose. I guess it's more the pan out, distance shots along with the screaming. It's so overblown it jars me.

>>80109774

Tip top bantz

>>80113386

Yeah, that's what I mean. He was clearly in on it on some level. What I'm saying is the Christian thing could have been a ruse to cover his real beliefs.

"You ever heard of the M-Brane Theory? It's like in this universe, we process time linearly forward. But outside of our spacetime, from what would be a fourth-dimensional perspective, time wouldn't exist, and from that vantage, could we attain it... we'd see... our spacetime would look flattened, like a single sculpture with matter in a superposition of every place it ever occupied. Our sentience just cycling through our lives, like carts on a track. See, everything outside our dimension... that's eternity, eternity looking down on us. Now, to us, it's a sphere, but to them... it's a circle. In eternity, where there is no time, nothing can grow. Nothing can become. Nothing changes. So death created time to grow the things that it would kill, and you are reborn, but into the same life, that you've always been born into.

A lot of people misconstrued things about Rust. For example, people saw him as a mouth piece for the author and thought Pizza thought he was being totally epic and edgy by using Rust as a self insert for his philosophical ramblings, but these books do exist in that universe and Rust found them in his time of grief and sorrow and it made sense to him and helped him put the pieces of a broken world back together. It's not Rust saying what Pizza thinks, it's Rust saying what he thinks it means and latching onto it because it makes him feel better. It's not plagiarism, Rust read those books and is just parroting what he read in them.

If any of that makes sense.

They were the low tier. The handlers. They procured the boys and girls and cooked up the party favors and got everyone doped up and got rid of the bodies. The cult didn't break up, most of it just followed Edwin Tuttle to the capitol when he became a Senator. They swapped their musty old civil war forts for some brickfront town house in Georgetown.

The show wasn't garbage but everything after the time skip was 7/10 at best. I wish the entire present tense story had taken place in the interview room with both men lying about what really happened and that they'd solved it long ago, and given up after almost dying and realizing how deep it all went.

I'm a four times deployed combat vet that's killed people with my barehands. I ended up getting out of defense contracting because of how much I hated Islam, and the fact that pedophilia was so rampant was the main reason.

For some reason fucking with children has always bothered me. I don't see how a person could ever want to do it. I'm 29 now and girls that are under the age of 24 do almost nothing for me, regardless of how hot they are. I had a pretty healthy sex life so maybe thats why I don't feel like I'm missing anything now.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure Pizza grew up in Louisiana, but he never really beats you over the head with the anti-Christian stuff so it didn't feel like a self insert, and the way it was written was much better than the typical detached Hollywood Jew who's never been to fly over country. It's probably just what he was familiar with, and it worked.

If you can't tell where the cuts are in that scene you need to leave this board

Having Marty there as the constant foil helps to highlight this, that Rust is speaking as a character and not as a mouthpiece for the author. As well the ending wherein Rust goes to another place and comes to a certain understanding about death and what comes next.

>>80118842
This is navy seal copypasta tier shit.

Post your DD214 and any medals you earned while serving right now faggot.

>>80118818
Could you elaborate more? Id never heard any of this. Also, more arrests have been made against pedophiles in the first month of Trump's presidency than the entire final year of Obama's.

There has been rampant sex abuse of children in countries the Clinton Foundation has been involved in. A common sex slaver strategy is hitting poor undeveloped countries after major disasters or civil upheavals (wars, government transitions etc).

Andrew Brietbart died mysteriously after calling out Podesta for being a pedophile and then the coroner who autopsied him died too.

>>80118934
there isn't a cut until near the very end of that scene lol

you still with me?

so those in Hollywood and at HBO couldn't have another 10 hours of a prime time must watch TV show devoted to shining a light on kiddie rapers at the top of our society. Pizza and Fukunaga flew too close to the sun with Season 1, especially all the pedo imagery that Fukunaga incorporated. Pizza was probably blackmailed into backing off the occult shit. Fuku probably refused, because he sees himself as an artist and was probably fucked up at his apartment in LA by a guy who was dressed pretty similar to Ray in the show.

IE pizza showed us what happened to fukunaga.

And then there is the torrential media shitstorm that fell down on season 2. Before it even aired there was a massive backlash against it. It never even got a shot. And then it became some running joke amongst reviewers to keep on hate watching it. Some morbid joke. But it was like everyone HAD to hate it. And even with all that, season 2 was still pretty redpilled

So many great tits in this show. Maggie, the girl at the courthouse, the runaway, even the background whores. Just delicious, all of them.

>>80119225
Totally believe it. Corey Haim literally killed himself over pedophilia in the industry, Elijah Wood has all but admitted he was a victim, Bryan Singer fucks twinks and apparently Trump stays in Mars a Lago as much as possible because half the fucking people in DC are in it as well.

Here's a video of Sessions keeping Biden away from his granddaughter.

https://youtu.be/EoLHn577xIE?t=20m13s

The reason the media is going so hard after him is because he's going to drop the axe on every fucking one of these sick assholes.

This entire video talks about how disgusting Biden is btw.

>>80118961
Yeah, the ending and Rust's character development wrapped it up nicely, so the series didn't validate his previous views, which was unexpected desu.

>>80119315
>bad guy is a Russian
>pretty typical for Hollywood demonizing Russians
>turns out he's a Jew

That was the best part desu

https://youtu.be/s_HuFuKiq8U?t=172

It clearly cuts when it pans up to the helicopter

>>80119315
They half-assed that though. They couldn't decide if the show was going to be character-driven or scenario-driven so it was both and felt like a mess, complete with "Pizzolato wants to make Kino but HBO won't let him" as the cherry on top. It could have been much better if they'd taken less time on the characters and their stupid bullshit bullshit (wahhh when I was a teenager I fucked some old hippie for a week but felt guilty about it so I said I was raped) and more about the unseen hands pushing the pieces around the board.

>>80119272
I'm in the air force you fucking crayola muncher. I've literally never had to carry a rifle outside of BMT, I was just parroting memes I've heard on /k/.

Your story still sounds pretty fucking suspect though, every muhreen I've ever known has brought a knife or three from home on their deployments.

>>80119573
I actually think that the characters were what made season 1 so good, and they should have stuck with that. I was kinda digging the conflicted faggot angle, but they didn't do much with that, and his characters end really left that unfinished.

the worst part about seeing all these LOL SO FANNY biden and obama memes on social media the last 8 years. every time i see one im instantly reminded of all those videos of Biden creeping on little girls like Uncle Rapey. Most of the people that share those memes hate Trump mainly because of his comments towards women, so the irony is delicious.

>>80119419
>so the series didn't validate his previous views

a nice touch, great character development

>>80119525
yeah, which is at the end, like i said

>>80119573
thats the thing though, it couldn't be like that because of the truth behind the fiction. the cherry on top is the elite-hollywood-pedo connection

>>80119411
fuck. I suspect Biden might actually be a pedo after that. ~4:50 and 7:34

>>80119661
The main characters should have been either Frank and Ray or Ray and Paul. Woodrugh was a great character who would have been worth of being the Rust in his own season. There was so much potential there that wasn't tapped on because so much time was wasted with the other characters and the lumbering plot.

His characters end was fanfuckingtastic

>descending into the belly of the beast
>is nearly swallowed up
>drawn further into the center of a massive conspiracy he can't even really fathom

something about empty cities at nights, grizzled detectives and shady dealings that gets my boner all in a tizzy. the main emphasis of the season should have been the connection between black mountain and catalyst but it was thrown in almost like an after thought, along with pretty much everything else.

Almost like it was rewritten on the fly

>>80119710
It's clearly halfway through the scene you fucking mongoloid. It's a great scene, but they only filmed the shit in the first house without a cut, and even that's disputable.

https://youtu.be/s_HuFuKiq8U?t=39

That's likely another cut at the 40 second mark as well.

>>80119779
1:22 is another perfect place for a cut.

>>80119661
I agree, but S2 is not S1 and leaned much more heavily on the situation as a whole but constantly got bogged down by detours into character development.

>>80119710
They didn't have to do the pedo angle, though. They could have just done it about the rampant corruption and sexual deviancy of these people without ever bringing children into the picture.

It also should have been set in the bay area desu.

>>80119411
>>80119411
It just had to turn into a Trump thing didn't it...

I don't deny there's politicians into this shit, probably plenty of democrats even, but lets not pretend Trump is some paragon of virtue. I wouldn't be surprised to find he did some fucked up shit too in fact he was accused of being at those same pedo parties as Bill Clinton.

>>80119779
There's no cut there faggot. It's all one take. They even confirmed this.

>>80118896
Ya. Both seasons of Fargo buried this show imo. And I'm one of the few that liked S2 of TD.

>>80119832
its not about any one angle (though the pedo angle is damning and the smoking gun here) than it is about the show's portrayal of those perpetrating these heinous crimes. The whole thing here is that after the success of season 1, season 2 couldn't be perceived as anywhere near it, or worth a damn. Any angle with the elites portrayed as beyond corrupt, sexual deviants dabbling in the occult, is bad for them.

>>80119710
>LOL SO FANNY biden and obama memes on social media

ya, lots a those popped up on my kike book, they stopped after jan 20th tho hajha

>>80119773
Yeah, they really should have had more time, and I agree completely about the character focus. Nearly the whole first season was always with Marty or Rust, and that allowed a lot of development, especially with Marty's family. Season two had too many characters, but there were definitely similarities with Vince's waifu dealings.

>>80119832
I think the character development was the what made the show so good in the first place.

>>80119856
Naw, Trump's not a pedo, he lusts after hot Eastern European women, Caspere knew this.

>>80118896
>>80119893
confirmed for pleb taste

>>80118896
>worse than both seasons of Fargo
not even close definitely better than both

The other shows are in the same league but I think TD tops them, I can understand feeling differently though.

>>80119856
They have Wild Bill on the flight plan for the pedo express dozens of times, throughout his presidency alone. If Trump was on any of those logs they'd have been dug up by now. He's no paragon of virtue, and it certainly isn't just a Democrat thing.

>>80119857
>They even confirmed this
Where's the link?

>>80119893
>>80118896
Season 1 of Fargo was just a re-imagining of the movie.

>TD s1 > Fargo s1
>TD s2 < Fargo s2
>TD s1 > Fargo s2

its close tho, Fargo season 2 was incredible

>>80119903
People have been getting away with portraying politicians as corrupt deviants forever, though. The only things that would really shit where they eat would be Hollywood or pedo tendencies.

>>80119912
The character development in S1, sure. S2's character development was shit

>>80119946
I have a hard time believing anyone high up in business or politics is good.

Power goes to people's heads you know people will get to some fucked up shit when they believe they're above punishment. Also it's well known that psychopaths who aren't morons seek out positions of authority, they want their behavior to be at least tolerated but ideally they actually want to be praised for it. Becoming an authority figure is the best way to achieve that.

>>80120037
Yeah agreed, character development in the second season was shit.

>>80120080
There was none, they just kept retreading the same ground to re-establish the same shit they already had in the previous episode.

>Ray is a miserable drunk and wants to be in his sons life but his wife is a whore and his kid might not be his
>Frank had a rough life and his wife might be infertile and he just wants kids and he's having an existential crisis
>Paul is gay, but he doesnt want to be, he just wants to be a family man, and he did sketchy shit in the special forces
>Ani is a drunk with daddy issues because she fucked a hippy when she was an angsty teen

never moved past any of that for any of those characters. they never grew or changed

>>80120037
yeah but the point im making is that the damage was done with season 1, there was no right way they could have done it, it would have been shit, for one reason or another, because the show had to be assassinated. it had to be bad. do you get it yet?

>>80120187
Yep, pretty shit tier development there. Maybe I'm a faggot, but that gay angle really could be something interesting, I just feel like it's never touched upon in that manner. Usually it's always "just embrace being a faggot, or else your just a closeted sicko" instead of approaching it as a moral crises that deals with the needs of the flesh vs the needs of the spirit. Doing that would probably be frowned upon.

>>80120370
I was surprised it was handled in the manner it was and thought Woodrugh was the standout character of the season, despite Ray and Frank both being great too. I liked the way he was portrayed, there was just too much screen time wasted on dumb shit.

Of the leads, Paul was the only real true detective. Frank too, but he wasn't a cop, he was a true detective in the seedy, connected, underworld sense of the words.

>>80107271
Litterally agreed

>>80120480
Agreed senpai, that was interesting. Reminds me that there was also some fag shit, when Rust was talking to that tranny in New Orleans. Dood looked freaky.

>>80120047

Not only that but you can imagine how easy it must be to blackmail colleagues and opponents alike when you start to involve sexual deviants.

>>80119893
TD pre time skip was the best television I've ever watched.

Fargo is my favorite though. They got carried away with the intelligent nigger schitck in S2 when he started quoting Alice In Wonder Land from memory on his way to shoot up a house.

Loved his character outside of that though.

>>80119912
>Trump's not a pedo, he lusts after hot Eastern European women
>>80119946

They just won't bring such sick things on the surface. Because many of the elite are into pedo shit and other filth. Hell, you motherfuckers would do it also if you felt almighty and safe.
So don't be defending Trump or anyone else, /pol/ triggered faggot.

>>80120883
>Hell, you motherfuckers would do it also if you felt almighty and safe.

Don't be accusing me of being a crypto-pedo. I wouldn't touch that shit if it was legal and I got paid.

>>80120812

Agreed.

90s TD was amazing but they dropped the ball hard at the end when the show turned into a bad episode of Criminal Minds.

Fargo (both seasons), Lost 3-4 and Homeland season 1 are still the best TV I've watched.

>>80107271
Wheat?

>>80107334
Purposely.

>>80108188
What is even more interesting is how it evolves throughout the show and ends at something resembling existentialism, or even Buddhism.
