Kenneth Marshall refusing to acknowledge queer relationships? Sounds quite like a certain someone…

I think I've talked about this too much to people but I always think the direct comparison of Kenneth Marshall to Trump is an under-representation of. the amount of evil people that are. visible in his character

like Trump is absolutely a very clear inspiration for Marshall's incompetence and his narcissism, but I also think (not only his position as a former senator) puts him in line with some of the other power hungry ghouls on the lower rungs of conservative legislation. He's deftly uncharismatic and has to rely on power to get people to at least pretend to like him, reminds me of JD Vance (not to mention the whole thing with him wearing visible eye makeup during the talk show sequence, makeup in general, is a think JD Vance has been made fun of for like. forever now). Known ghoul Matt Gaetz has one of the most joyless, unnatural smiles in the world. So does Kenneth Marshall. (no disrespect to Mark Ruffalo there, i'm pretty sure he's either doing some kind of facial work or has prosthetic teeth to create that)

The evangelicalism that Niflheim is founded upon in is obviously very closely knit with the conservative party, but also works to make Marshall very reminiscent of a lot of Megachurch pastors and Televangelists-- (this isn't a revelation or anything, it's very obvious. HE LITERALLY HAS HIS OWN TV SHOW) lest we forget the time he tried to convince that lady to have his children IN FRONT OF YLFA, BTW, WHO ALSO SEEMED DOWN WITH THAT WHICH IS. whatever. i'm pretty sure the bible does not permit adultery, but cult leaders are very well known for disregarding such a rule and justifying it under the rule of god.

and of course the full on dictator mode he gets into in the last act is very clearly reminiscent of like. every dictator ever. pick one.

oh yeah and bong joon ho literally said the character was inspired by "a mix of many different politicians" and "dictators that we have seen throughout history."

so. that's just all the ones i noticed i guess

Only good thing Kenneth and Ylfa Marshall did was put those adorable flappy hats with the ear flaps on 17 and 18

okay so my thoughts are a little messy but thinking a lot about the intro of Kenneth Marshall and how his campaign/propaganda seems to revolve around the idea of him being 'the one and only' or smthn (can't remember the exact wording but it's that sentiment), ending with him being the one human killed(not self sacrificed) for everyone else's survival/to make things equal....... good.

and obviously there's the commentary on how he panders to the westerner's (specifically American's) rampant sense of individualism, and need to believe they're special, but there's something to be said about how he says in the cafeteria when we first meet him that he feels like everyone there could be 'the one and only'. yes all that stuff I said before, but I truly believe he would have thrown as many bodies at the problem before he'd thrown himself (obviously) and so many would I have let him.

Obviously Marshall had to die, he always had to be the one to die, but I also think he's the only one who can be killed in a way that would truly make it even. Because of who he is, people may sacrifice themselves for him, and people may be sacrificed for him. Like I know that's weird and reductive, but do you kind of get what I'm saying? Kenneth Marshall was the one and only death that would make it even, narratively speaking; he had to be the one killed, anyone else would have been simply a sacrifice.

One of the most revolting moments of the movie was Preston begging Marshall for more war time quotes shit makes me cringe violently every time so props to that actor and Mark lmao

That “you want more?” And “oh, please” makes me want to rip my ears off every time 😭😭

Isabelle : Ohhhh! That sounds like a better idea.

Kenneth : Agreed.
