just so the world knows: sneeg watched the entirety of the founder's cut yesterday on stream. did you know that in episode two the hat was stitched to his scalp, and when security took off his hat in episode three he bled profusely from the head. did you know he (and charlie) would have lived if ranboo had listened to the audience and put in the code they said to. did you know sneeg knew frank while he was alive and knew him as he decomposed to a not fresh corpse. did you know he was trying to spell "already dead" with letters during the clothes room.

For anyone wondering, I think the new shot of Frank that Ranboo mentioned is this one:

What to do with your VHS
Hi! did you just aquire the generation loss TSE VHS but dont know what exactly to do? so far, heres what we suggest you look out for. 1 - Discrepancies or cut in additions during the show are typically upside down or met with a harsh sound effect. 2 - Any official looking labeling should be read through because notes from or about showfall media has been put in character. 3 - Somewhere on the tape should be a hand scratched number/letter combo for example "A32, X1, EE10" If you dont have your dads 2^ft VHS player to rely on, or the technical knowhow to put it onto a flatscreen id suggest checking out a library! who might have one, or suggest where one can be found. posting these things on tumblr, discord, or sending them to someone who CAN circulate the information helps keeping the communication flowing! if you dont know anyone who could circulate the information? send it to me. this is an invitation, and if i didnt offer that after telling you to spread word itd be kinds dumb. we have roughly 2 weeks left on the timer and this is where pivotal theory crafting is made, when we ALL have information at the same time. Founders Game In One Day Lets Go!!! -Tophat

terrible awful realization
[image transcript:
arisveah: and the surgery scene was so much more piercing seeing it from a different angle like omg now we have the idea that he was screaming the whole time omg.
best friend: RIGHT
arisveah: (referring to a previous comment about the exposure) "nerd" okay star wars. what am i supposed to do with the knowledge that charlie was screaming for half an hour what the fuck. what do i do with that? poor boy. if he ever escapes his voice is going to be absolutely shot. and plus saying all that (referring to the horror of promoting a future sex channel with your voice and not your authority) on stream- poor man might never say anything again (if he gets out) :(
End of transcript]

GENLOSS ANALYSIS TIME
Spoilers ahead, go watch the vid if you havent already
Also I'm writing this as I'm watching it so don't mind any inconsistancies too badly
youtube
Episode 1: Spirit of the Cabin
So right off the bat we have confirmation that the ingredients Ran was being made to cook (and Charlie being made to eat) are actually various organs and flesh bits.
Actually, maybe this was already confirmed but I don't remember there being flash-backs in the original, but then again i only learned how to move frame-by-frame recently (like... today)
And then that explains Charlie's hesitance in eating the dish! He's still under mind control but its some crazy cool resistance that he was able to put it off as long as he did.
And when Ran's mask is flashing we now can hear soundbits from later on in the experiments, from whenever he's not under control, an audio testament that they've been through this multiple times like a loop. Which yeah, we already were told that when the mask lights its because he's receiving memories again, but we (or at least, I) didn't know the memories were of the exact events shown in the episodes.
My only question at the moment in regard to that is that, everyone killed was definitely, irl, actually for-real killed (in universe), so how are they brought back to do it again? Clones? Future resuscitation tech?Are they just conscious corpses being puppeted around like some sorta sick marionette show?
And Sneeg, oh Sneeg, the way he was made to stand so rigidly while Ran was asleep, couldn't even move or sit, just looking around frantically. I wonder if he was made to feel like it had actually been 8 hours. I wouldn't put it past Showfall Media.
Episode 2: The Mastermind of the Warehouse
So, it seems like they cut out the Mastermind's little bit of a freakout when he gave Ran "a little bit of juice" that almost killed them, they also made it look like Ran's recovery from it was much quicker. Makes me curious, but I guess they don't want any of the audience thinking the "villain" is just as scared and unwilling as the heroes yet.
Though with how blunt they are with the other murderous torturous stuff, I'm surprised thats one of the things they chose to cover up.
Speaking of which, the surgery section.
God, the surgery section.
Also sped through a bit, understandably, but that cut away to the security camera where he's just screaming in agony.
It hits way harder like that oh my god. Oh my fucking god.
Charlie is an absolutely insane actor.
Onto the Carousel! Which, by the way, the animation blips have been so fun and they are so well done, amazing work on the animation team's part.
OHHH WHEN SNEEG GETS HIS HAT BACK HE GETS FLASHBACKS TO THE CABIN
You see him freak out at remembering but him trying to keep his composure, UGH such good acting. And him saying he needed to go to the bathroom so he can try to escape, still can't believe that almost worked.
But when they catch him with the mask? So much fucking creepier somehow. Everything went dead silent and froze, and even though his body is compliant you can see the anger and fear in his mind. Also felt like that lasted longer than before.
And then how everyone just snaps back and gets into "acting" again, also super fucking creepy. Insanely well executed.
now, skipping forward to after Nikki's death, when Ran goes through the door after the Mastermind... FACTORY RESET? It says factory reset? How far back does that take Ran? They seem to still remember what they had been through so what exactly is it resetting?
I dont remember the slimetowel segment at all, I feel like it was added. Though that would be the nature of generation loss, not being able to tell what was added and taken away.
Episode 3: The Choice
Oh boy here we are again
The transition being in the style of one of those "classified document" videos is a great touch, cuz it does go "off-script" here supposedly, though we all know thats not the actual case.
Ran trying to talk to the camera people still breaks my heart, they're not in control all they can do is film.
Also, can't believe I ever thought Hetch was a good guy after hearing "You aren't supposed to leave yet" and then the blatant lie that everyone is still alive. Like I never trusted him to begin with but he seemed about as trustworthy as everyone else thats under control.
The way Hetch talks about the company makes it sound like its some sort of eldritch entity, rather than a business conglomerate. And who's to say it isn't, with how it's "repurposed" and "recycled" literal human beings, turning them into brainless automatons. Also the cut to Charlie's stream startled me lol.
Aw man, the music/heartbeat/ringing drowning out Charlie's voice after they find Hetch and get the map. Incredible way of showing Ran's mental shock.
Ȩ̵̏p̵̬͊ị̶̼̋s̷̺͝ö̶̪́̒d̷̹͉̓̑ȇ̶͚͓̀ ̷̤͛͝3̶̨̥̾:̶̥̌ ̵̱̫̔Ṭ̶̺́h̴͔͑̈́ḙ̸̻̅ ̵̱̉̂H̸̞̄e̶̬̠̎͐ṟ̸̜́̾o̶̳͊͝
Ough
Still hurts
The change I've noticed here is that we start zoomed in on Ran's face, whereas I think before we could see the whole scene from the start, Hetch, all of it.
And WOAH, the flashes of the photos before the announcement? Are those all photos of them when they were kids? thats such an amazingly disturbing detail.
Another disturbing detail, the zoom-in and silence following the box closing, showing all the blood pouring out. Horrifying. Not even any music or anything while the credits roll. Really lets the audience sit in what just happened.
The Therapy Sequence
I'm calling it the Therapy Sequence based on how the dialogue sounds, though it very much could be psychology or something else.
This Ms. Roads Character is new, I believe
She's been having "vivid, scary dreams" and says to call her Zero, which ha ha pun but also kinda sad. Zero Roads is a kind of hopeless sounding name.
And then, in the unlisted vid, its the Founder giving us the tape of the social experiments.
"Its your experiments now"
I hope people who are able to afford to buy the tapes will share it's contents with the rest of the community. "Communication is Key" and yada yada.
I have no doubts that there's more secrets to be found within.
Final Notes
I'm so fucking proud of Ranboo, oh my god
This story that they're weaving continues to amaze and inspire me, its so incredible that he's gotten to create this.
I'm so excited for what happens next.

half the people whining about the founders cut seem to not understand what a directors cut of a movie is. the big thing they're often about is polishing up editing and changing scenes to how the director would have ideally wanted. outside of the canon, this was one way for ranboo to give some extra cool shots and lines and lore bits (ex. "thank you"). and in the canon, with the founder being the director in this case, it's no wonder some changes were the way that they were--ex. ranboo and charlie being more of a focus (they're the ones with mental implants and the hardest control from showfall), hetch's portrayal being hardened as much as it was (a show of control, heightening the antagonism). i think that was a cool choice. i see some people upset that some of the sillier bits were shortened and the story was overall darkened in its telling (RIP giant gummy worm), but i felt the story was still effective, and people less attached to the ccs than i am seem to agree as well? idk. overall, it DOES have changes, but it is still the same story because IT IS ESSENTIALLY A THEMATICALLY-IN-UNIVERSE DIRECTORS CUT OF THE SOCIAL EXPERIMENTS. the people upset that it's the same story as the regular TSE, again, i think didn't understand what a directors cut was, and the people upset about the changes don't understand that this is supposed to be an altered ("perfected") retelling of the TSE story. *takes a deep breath and folds my hands on my lap*.

I really liked how in TFC, Hetch is so much more condescending and sarcastic to Ranboo than in the original streams. He sounds very insincere, even in the first episode, and I like how we can't tell if this is the Founder altering it, or if Hetch was like this the whole time and the filter changed it.
He also calls Ranboo 'Hero' in TFC, which is something he never did in the original streams. He always called them 'Ranboo' before, possibly to get them/the audience to trust him, but this time he doesn't even say their name once, possibly speaking to how little he respects them/sees them as an actual person.
