Genloss Theory - Tumblr Posts
If you look at the box that Ranboo dies to, it's already incredibly rusty and bloody with dried blood on the spikes and rust all over it. People have already died in that thing, but who? Did Showfall perhaps have another hero before Ranboo or was this just another piece of a death game?
Or it could just be design choice to add to the horror, most likely.
i recon he does have loved ones out there but that they gave up looking because it'd been so long, and then when he got his memories back at the end, gl!ranboo realised their loved ones had probably seen the show and knew what he did and thought that they would never bother to try save him because they thought he was a monster
I’m tempted to make my own 40 minute video essay just to explain the actual concepts and metaphors that can be taken from the series
matpat never touch good media again challenge
like
did he just miss the entire point? did he not care? was the in-depth and beautiful metaphor of the chains content creators are put in not click bait enough? “he’s the founder”, that’s the classic “oh, WE’RE the villain” shtick game theory always pulls because it’s easy, lazy, and makes money.
i’m sorry i’m so genuinely pissed at matpat clearly only making this video for views. there was no love for the project. no thought about ranboo, and how the ENTIRE POINT of generation loss was also him showing us how fucking impossible it is for them to escape the old content they made, and be seen for what their current life reflects.
this “theory” is a shitty head canon at best. no basis in fact. it’s like he didn’t even watch genloss.
i’m genuinely upset over this i cannot with matpat.

Tbh I feel like people are a little too quick to jump on the train of “There is no WAY gl!Ranboo could ever be the Founder!!” like. We don’t know that for sure, I certainly wouldn’t rule it out as a possibility. The issue with the Game Theory video saying it though is that the evidence presented to support the theory made no goddamn sense
You can just pretend that it’s a showfall production, I mean it does fit the vibe, horrific things happening as the characters all just laugh
also, you know how the filter made a real body into a plastic skeleton or blood into slime? What if it makes people bound to a poll into mannequins? Or make guns look like nerf guns or drills.
not to mention Charlie died in the bank and came in the next episode, Tommy came back in season 2, although it’s unclear if he’s really alive in s2 e1. (Although the Charlie thing can be explained as that being the beast and not him) I haven’t seen s2 e3 yet, but I assume some of them die there too considering it’s a zombie apocalypse
all in all, this doesn’t matter in the slightest because sorry almost definitely doesn’t have cross episode lore, wait… showfall media shows didn’t have much cross episode consistency
as cool as it would be all of this is just a kinda fun way of thinking of sorry boys, definitely not intentional, but if your desperate for generation loss content then you can just pretend
I NEED A SORRY BOIS/GENERATION LOSS CROSSOVER
MAYBE ONE WHERE RANBOO AND CHARLIE SURVIVED BUT ARE BEING PUT THROUGH THE RINGER AGAIN WITHOUT REALIZING IT OR KNOWING IT. SNEEG IS TRYING TO SAVE THEM AND AS RAN AND CHARLIE SLOWLY REALIZE WHATS HAPPENING SO DO THE REST OF THE SORRY BOIS.
so I forgot to update this, but after watching s2 e3, yeah this really fits as a showfall production, especially with the way that Charlie breaks down and everyone else jokes and that Ramboo was one of the only ones to survive, also we got some cross episode lore so…
