I don't know if it's just like the yellow font of the card, but like more, I think it was like the pastiche of a genre that we're engaging with.

Something that we enjoyed in our coverage of Poker Face is just like, Rian Johnson is just like, I'm making this kind of movie in this episode of Poker Face.

To be fair, Sam Levinson has done that before.

The season two opener is very much like a stylized, like 70s sort of exploitation crime movie.

vibe but this opening which is both like engaging in the western genre and very breaking bad coded um with the like mishap hijinks incredible uh visual in the desert of a car teetering on top of the border wall uh what did you think of our introduction back to euphoria

We should mention some new creative people involved in this season.

Hans Zimmer on the score.

This one I feel kind of mixed about because obviously Hans Zimmer, like, absolute genius.

Do you think Zendaya was like, hey, Hans, we've worked together so well on Dune, come over and do Euphoria?

Yeah.

But Labyrinth, Labyrinth's music is so iconic to the experience of Euphoria to me.

And I just like listen to those tracks often.

I think they're incredible.

And so in terms of like a soft reboot, having this Hans Zimmer score over, they were supposed to collaborate, but I don't know if you saw that Labyrinth put this like post up on Instagram like a week ago that said, quote, I'm done with this industry.

Fuck Columbia.

Double fuck Euphoria.

Yeah.

So I don't know the whole story there.

If there was indeed a collaboration between Hans Zimmer and Labyrinth this season or if it was just a Zimmer joint, I don't know.

But I do miss the very recognizable euphoria musical sound with love and respect to Hans Zimmer.
