Wait wait wait wait wait. I swear to God I'm not being snarky here - there are new people entering the GITS fandom because of the ScarJo movie?

[(Anonymous)]

LOL, as an avoidant depressive, flip that for me. It's great to get a tip-off this way, though.

[(Anonymous)]

Yup. It was a major movie with a major star in it, lot of people came into the fandom and knew nothing about the controversy or all the other old arguments.

[(Anonymous)]

I mean, it underperformed pretty significantly at the box office, no? Compared to expectations, I mean. It did worse at the box office than Valerian and the City Of A Thousand Planets, which came out the same year, and AFAIK that's not really bringing people into a fandom. IDK it just surprises me.

... okay, I admit it's been years since I read the book, but how on earth was Harriet a sociopath in HTS? She was a young child who was going through a period of major upheaval to her life and didn't know how to handle it in healthy ways (and also didn't have good adult support), and the entire plot of the novel was her learning that what she had done wasn't okay and how to redirect her feelings into more healthy outputs. Her friends didn't forgive her until she apologized and meant it and showed that she recognized that what she had done to them was wrong.

[(Anonymous)]

I'm a fan but I haven't watched the movie yet. It looks unfun.

[(Anonymous)]

what's the movie?

[(Anonymous)]

It's been a long-ass time since I read that book but I remember being weirded out by her obsessive need to know every damn thing that was none of her business and literally spying on strangers in their homes, while displaying very little empathy towards others

[(Anonymous)]

Based on the cape, Doctor Strange 2

Submitting a Secret

[(Anonymous)]

Can someone ELI5 how to submit a secret?

I've been an occasional commenter on FandomSecrets for *years* but never actually made one - I've always been too scared of screwing it up.

Good on you, OP, for cheering on fellow fans instead of wanting to bring them down or make them feel bad for liking something without passing a purity test.

That's... totally normal kid behavior, though? Kids aren't born with empathy, it's something they need to learn through interacting with other people and realizing that the things they say and do can hurt others.

Also, I take it you have never really been around children because I babysat when I was in college and it was very common for the kids I watched to be able to rattle off things like the scientific names of twenty different dinosaurs/the stats of different Yu-Gi-Oh cards/all of the types of Pokemon/different models of trains. Kids are sponges, if something interests them they want to learn EVERYTHING about it.
