Name the fandom. And repeats, etc.

Dreamwidth gave me an error so I write a new comment, but my first comment made it though apparently. Now I double posted.

If you got the time, could you delete https://fandomsecrets.dreamwidth.org/2814285.html?thread=1105076045#cmt1105076045 for me, please?

I tried to make a secret explaining that I understood Redshirts was shit on purpose. I just thought “on purpose” was a bad reason to be shit. Someone who thought they were defending me said the author failed at his job, because he didn’t make me realize it was shit on purpose.

(This is more obscure, but Crossing Souls is also bad on purpose, and it deliberately fumbles the emotional stuff around children dying horribly because the ‘80s cartoons that inspired it also fumbled emotional stuff. I hate Crossing Souls so much.)

It is the sort of thing I would have thought was cool when I was fifteen and just learning about plot twists in drama class.

I still think the better way to end the movie would have been to play it straight and have it end with averting the apocalypse/having the sacrifices die.

[(Anonymous)]

I think the initial positive reaction to this movie owes part of the popularity to Joss Whedon's magic and the fact that the ideas are somewhat clever, though not as clever as Whedon himself believes or his fans seem to think.

[(Anonymous)]

It’s just a shitty movie that makes people feel savvy for understanding even though you barely have to know a couple slasher movie tropes to “get it,” and beyond the spoon-feeding of shallow meta it has no substance besides one or two good laughs. I’ve heard it described as the Ready Player One of horror, and from what I’ve heard about RPO that sounds about right.

I enjoyed it the first time but I think it loses a lot on rewatches.

[(Anonymous)]

It was fine. I liked bits of it and disliked other bits and never really thought about it again. But it seems to be used as some kind of Smart Horror Litmus Test, which is in itself dumb.

You're right about the poster, though.

[(Anonymous)]

See, I love it, I think it's fun, but it's definitely not that fucking deep. There isn't some big meta conversation to be had about it, and if you don't like it that's cool but it's probably not because you "didn't get it".

[(Anonymous)]

To all this: I have a big, fat “Thank You!!”.

I liked the movie, but I didn’t find it nearly as clever as it thought it was. I got it, like you did. But just getting it didn’t make it more clever or impressive in regards to the overall film, or most of the characters. There’s some smart writing here and there, but I just don’t feel impressed as a whole. The parts I enjoyed the most were definitely the shoutouts. While you can’t make an entire movie on references and shoutouts, whether I enjoy them or not. To the film’s credit, its doesn’t try to hinge the entirety of it on said references. I just wish there was more to a lot of it.

This is adorable! While I can't admit I've run into this issue (I tend to play easy going games, I'm trying to relax), I definitely can get feeling cheated (well, like you fell for your own trap AGAIN) if you were expecting something more challenging.

I feel this. I made one secret a few weeks back after thinking about it for months and I was so happy when I finally just did it. It wasn't hard and it was fun! But now I still can't find the drive to make the other secrets I've been thinking about as well...

OP to secret maker

[(Anonymous)]

Thanks for turning my comment into a secret!

I'm a little less embarrassed this week, though, thanks to CCP getting butthurt over Uncle Roger's jokes and banning him.

IMO, Us is less heavy-handed than Get Out and Nope is even less heavy-handed. Nope is also just so entertaining, I hope you give it a try, OP.
