      The only way I’m allowed to die is if I sacrifice myself to save another life, if I die in a freak accident, or if I get some fatal disease that I didn’t cause through my own actions/inaction. No suicide or preventable deaths for me. But I do think about those options an inordinate amount

        There’s definitely at least one where they’re like “you’re so bad, I was always gonna kill you from the start” and it got me thinking… Why set up the whole trap and not just dump his body in the nearest ocean?

          It depends on who built the trap. John Kramer is the original jigsaw and came up with the whole “the choice is yours” thing so his traps are always technically escapable. Amanda is the first apprentice and breaks John’s rules by making traps completely impossible, she ends up in three separate games (if you count Saw 2) because John wanted her to stop. Then there’s the cop who’s lead killer for like three movies but I still never remember his name, he just straight-up murders people so obviously his traps aren’t always winnable either. I’m not sure why he even bothers with traps. The guy from Spiral has no real connection to Jigsaw and just uses traps as a cover, but that’s also a detective movie more than a Saw movie; the plot would barely change if there were no traps at all.

          Yeah and it’s not really a series that is concerned much with maintaining continuity considering #7 out of 10 is called the final chapter. Most people are into it for the comeuppance and mousetrap gore.

    He didn’t say “new series” so we’ll be rewatching DS9. Now. Yes, including Move Along Home.

    I’d just rewatch Dungeon Meshi, I’ve been wanting to for a bit, but I can’t use my in-laws’ account because of Netflix’s password sharing BS

    I once binge watched the reality show, “the circle” which took many days to finish because there were so many seasons. I could have played this game without being guillotined.
