There Wasn’t A Mask to Drop But Still…
Disney just dropped the mask. Well, there wasn’t a mask to drop but even by Mickey the Great and Terrible’s basement dwelling standards, this is bad.
Pauline follows the eponymous protagonist, an 18-year-old who accidentally becomes pregnant – from a one-night stand. With school stress, the climate crisis and the downfall of society weighing heavily on her mind, something she doesn’t need at all right now is catching feelings, especially not for her one-night stand Lukas.
Pauline is penned by Sebastian Colley and EPs are Philipp Käßbohrer and Matthias Murmann, who combined on 2019’s How to Sell Drugs Online (Fast) for Netflix. Arabella Bartsch, Alma Buddecke and Facundo Scalerandi are directors.
I hate Disney so much. I was planning to start writing a series of essays on The Prisoner, now I have to start covering this literally damned thing.
What do I mean by that my Darklings?
Oh, forgot to mention, Lukas is Satan. Yes, the Adversary, Destroyer of Kings, Angel of the Bottomless Pit, Great Beast that is called Dragon, Prince of This World, Father of Lies, Spawn of Satan, and Lord of Darkness but call me Lukas is the father of Pauline’s baby on this Disney + series.
It’s not that the company Walt Disney founded is making their own version of Rosemary’s baby. It’s not that they are putting on the faimly friendly Disney +.
It’s that it is the second fucking one in the past 12 months!!!
Okay, I’m done here.
