I saw the Joker and was puzzled by some elements. I discuss the archetypal and historical usages of the clown and the jester, and how it relates to Nietzsche and nihilism. Phoenix goes full on vegan and shows us the dark future of Hollywood’s vision. Tell me what you think!
This week my sister Emma joined me to discuss Brady Corbet’s latest film Vox Lux, which tells the story of a young girl Celeste surviving a school shooting and becoming a pop star. We started by discussing the film itself and it’s interesting narrative structure. We also touched on some of the flaws in the film. We then moved onto the main plot points and themes in the film. Emma and I discussed the role that pop music plays in our lives and how trauma and tragedy connects to it. We touched on 9/11 which plays a role throughout the film.
Oriignally, I stopped at season 1 of American Horror Story, but the show took a decidedly Antichrist and occult bent more recently, illustrating the summation of all the seasons into a single hidden narrative about the birth and coming of the Antichrist. Since this relates to films and shows we’ve done before, as well as to chapters in my books, I have decided to cover the first episode of the new season.

Spielberg’s latest gnostic allegory is the presentation of reality as Un-reality. While the film does close with an anti-transhumanist / anti-VR obsession message, the film’s narrative focuses on pop culture symbolism, predictive programming, esoteric and archetypal myths and the summation in man’s apotheosis through technology and eternal psychodrama.
