You know what I feel so silly because I keep saying the only way Barb and Janey could still be alive is if they were either cryogenically frozen or became ghouls as well, but there's also a third option that I would actually love to see.

That Barb turned herself into a synth in order to continue her work for Vault-Tec and ensure they "outlast" the competition.

If this were the case, I think she would absolutely make the decision to freeze Janey in cryo with the intention of only waking her up when they finally succeeded in their plan of wiping out life on the surface and creating their "perfect world".

However, what I would REALLY love to see is Barb questioning the decisions she made all those years ago. Having seen the devastation that it caused, realizing how absurd Vault-Tec's plan is and that it's never going to happen, and struggling with whether she really made the right choice or not.

Especially after seeing Cooper and what he's become. A man she loved and possibly still has feelings for. And ESPECIALLY for the fact that she hasn't been able to see her daughter in 200 years other than frozen in a cryo tube.

With that in mind I would absolutely LOVE TO SEE Barb redeem herself by making the choice to help Cooper take down Vault-Tec once and for all and probably sacrificing herself in the process.

But before she dies, she tells Cooper where Janey is and tells him to get her out, protect her and let her live her life, and express regret for what she helped cause and the fact that she won't be able to watch her daughter grow up because of it.

So Cooper gets Janey out, and while she's afraid at first, she recognizes by his eyes, voice and hands that its her daddy and gives him a big hug, because one of the last things she remembers is being pulled out of his arms and brought into a vault where he was not allowed to go.

Then Cooper buys that ranch up in Bakersfield and he and Janey and Lucy live happily ever after THE END.

Different from my usual stuff, but I saw someone do this and thought I’d give in my two cents.

I've recently been reading the hunger games trilogy and listening to the soundtracks and it blows my mind that the intro music to "Remind Her Who The Enemy Is" corolates to the same track on The hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes titled "Coryo in the Capital" and it just gives me absolute CHILLS

And not to also mention that at the end of "Remind Her Who The Enemy is" it fades out with Katniss' theme....

i noticed while doing a rewatch with the snowbaird discord folks (🫶🫶🫶) that the same musical cue--titled "saving snow"--on the tbosas soundtrack plays three times throughout the movie

1st time is, of course, when coriolanus is trapped under the rubble - the strings begin as lucy gray turns back to save him and then soar as LG tries to help and is ripped away by the peacekeepers as coriolanus reaches for her (!!)

2nd time, a version of the same notes come in as Coriolanus catches sight of Lucy Gray on stage - prior to this the music was all from the Covey performance, internal to the scene (diegetic), then suddenly the camera slows and non-diegetic music comes back in to show C's feelings

(side note: this 2nd time the music is done in wistful piano as coriolanus gazes up at lucy gray, but the notes are the same)

3rd time is in the forest - as coriolanus pauses to smell the scarf lucy gray dropped and you can see his heart breaking - the soaring "saving snow" strings play... and then the strings become all discordant and chaotic.

you can really follow the arc of his feelings and their relationship through how this piece of music is used. overall, i really appreciate the work of the composer, James Newton Howard, but this stands out to me upon rewatch.

edit: in the movie, i think the first time "saving snow" plays is when Coriolanus falls for Lucy Gray. i think the timeline is different in the book -- but in the movie that is it and the music speaks to that and shows how those feelings evolve and then splinter

i like my fictional characters like I like my historical figures, sentenced to death by the one person they trusted most and executed for treason at 18 years old

TBOSAS is proof that “Remind Her Who the Enemy Is” is the best THG soundtrack (aside from The Hanging Tree) because the way James Newton Howard sampled the CRAP out of it in multiple tracks for the new movie is genius and iconic
