The philosophy of the Everything Bagel from ‘Everything Everywhere All at Once’ | via scoutmagph
“Everything Everywhere All at Once” is a genre triumph. The past few years of cinema history have tried their damnedest to nail the multiverse concept—Marvel had its hits and misses,feels like a culmination of all these attempts, its themes honed to a razor’s edge.
It’s a move that echoes what Batman says to Owlman. “We both looked into the abyss. But when it looked back at us, you blinked.” To be caught up in this vortex of thought, it’s very easy to entertain the idea that the only cosmically logical choice is to never have children. To discontinue life.No one’s here to go on a diatribe against antinatalism—if you don’t plan on having kids, more power to you, I don’t plan on it either. Nonetheless, Evelyn responds to Jobu’s pessimism by meeting her where she is, and taking the cosmic imbalance to the end.
The Everything Bagel represents the failing of pessimism, one that wants to posture an above-it-all cynicism and yet is horrified by the idea that life isn’t all about you. It is purely destructive and never restorative.
