"S33 | Vidcap Analysis | Pre-Show"

Posted by tribephyl on 05-23-16 at 10:15 PM
here is the initial thread dedicated to placing and discussing vidcaps for season 33. Ultimately, a "Future" and an "Episode 1" thread will take over for this thread. But until then, let's keep the pre-season discussions here.

JP: For our 33rd season, Survivor will put 20 new castaways to the ultimate test to prove which generation has what it takes to outwit, outplay and outlast. It's Survivor: Millennials vs Gen X.

Chris: It's hard work. It's not how fast I can type on Google to find the answer. The Millennials, they don't have a clue what their life is gonna be like or what they're doing. They don't have a plan. They certainly haven't been battle tested. If you've never been knocked down, then you don't know how to get up and fight.

Taylor: I think the older generation, they've been brainwashed with this "you have to have a career, you have to do A, B, C, D" I'm a free man, I don't like to be caged. You can do whatever the hell you want. I'm gonna go do it. Hashtag sole survivor.

Sunday: I don't feel like most young person are quite as driven. I just feel like they are a little bit more "que sera sera". If it takes me seven years to do school, who cares. My parents are paying for it.

Zeke: The stereotype of Millennials are they are always on social media, they're always on Twitter. I generally resent technology. I think Twitter is the worst thing ever invented. I mean, I'm on Twitter but I still think it's horrendous. I don't like being tied to my phone. I might not look it but I'm a very outdoorsy person. I can hack it out here.

David: They think we're old. They think we don't get it, but we handed them the world that they're just taking advantage of. And there were no participation awards when I was growing up, but honestly, who I am, I really could have used one. I could have used a dozen. Survivor is all about earning it, whereas Millennials feel like they deserve it.

For reference, here is the link to last year's preview trailer:
http://community.realitytvworld.com/boards/DCForumID2/8476.shtml#1

Highlighted were:
Debbie & Liz
Scot & Cydney
Caleb & Tai

(Haha, they show Joe's night time medivac in the preview, without Joe obviously, but it's funny how late that clip is from.)

The only people who were highlighted last year that didn't go far were Liz and Caleb. And Caleb had the big medivac moment, so that makes sense.


"Age ranges"
Posted by CTgirl on 05-24-16 at 08:54 AM
According to Wikipedia, Millennials were born between the early 1980s and 2000 so they will be between 18-34. Gen X were born between early 1960s and early 1980s so they will be between 34-54.

I'm technically a baby boomer on the cusp of being a GenX but I feel no connection whatsoever to the people born post WW2 nor do I identify as a GenX so I expect that these labels will evaporate when we have a tribe swap after a few episodes. The generational attributes are so wide and so vague that I don't think it will matter that much. I raised a millennial and I get along fine with them!

After 32 seasons, they really had to "dig deep" to find a theme!

At least they aren't returnees.

(Kind of an eclectic blend of professions. Two missionaries?)

2 Missionaries, a Pastor and a Religious Radio Host, 2 Attorneys and 3 Comedy Writers... all walk in to a bar...

Looks like enough material there for three or four sit-com pilots. Plus a Tarzan movie, dueling revival meetings, and a satanic coven assembly (the comedy writers).

Tai the Buddhist would have gotten lost in the shuffle this season.

Not just any pastor, but a pastor named Sunday.

I don't know anyone named Sunday and was surprised to see that Pastor Sunday is Female!

Apparently, the word after the reunion was that the "Millennials vs Gen-X" is an amazing season...

"JP Spews"
Posted by tribephyl on 05-26-16 at 11:28 PM
Well... JP is excited.
So... for one; probably looking at a male winner and two; this season has at least two firsts.
JP admitted that as an upper edged GenXr he did find qualities in them that he adhered to himself AND was completely befuddled at times at the Millenials gameplay.
Look for more of the "alliances of convenience" (aka "voting blocks") to start etching away at the GenX advantage they have going into merge.
