Re: I will never forgive this writer for X!

[forgottenjester]

It's nothing specific but I have a problem with writers who use certain things like death, sex, and other tabooish stuff only for the shock value. These are seriously important moments that can happen. They can do a lot to the plot. They can really let us see a character for who they really are or change them forever. These are important moments and using them solely for the shock value really cheapens everything and makes it meaningless.

And I can't find myself caring about things I deem meaningless.

Ugh, this.

Can't stand writers who pile on the gore/rape/death/child abuse just for the "edginess" and point it out going "See! See! Am I artistic yet?"

So tacky.

Re: I will never forgive this writer for X!

[forgottenjester]

Yes, if you have to ask, the answer is no.

Re: I will never forgive this writer for X!

I agree, especially if it's violence towards a child. Really? You had to stoop to killing a child to move your story forward? No, you failed. Go back and try again.

Re: I will never forgive this writer for X!

[forgottenjester]

And you know the sad part? I would actually find the child dying to be a huge emotional moment that could have a huge impact. But when done only for shock it simply looks crass, unimaginative, and exploitative.

Re: I will never forgive this writer for X!

[greenvelvetcake]

If it's used well, it can be a great emotional moment (see Pan's Labyrinth), or it could just be a disgusting attempt to hit the reader below the belt (see that one comic where Arsenal's daughter, Lian, died.)

Re: I will never forgive this writer for X!

[forgottenjester]

Yeah, I haven't read that comic but I'll take your word. But I agree with the sentiment. *Sigh* When will people learn?
