Westworld did this as well. Storytelling is dead!

IF FAN THEORIES ARE RIGHT IT IS A SIGN YOU HAVE TOLD A WELL-PUT TOGETHER AND FOLLOWABLE PLOT, NOT A SIGN YOU NEED TO MAKE UP SOME BULLSHIT FOR A TWIST ENDING. FUCK OFF WITH THIS SHIT.

[katjohnadams]

No wait, I’m not done here:

If the fans get where you are going and ARE STILL HAPPY, you KEEP GOING THERE. It shows they’re invested and your story craft is setting up and paying off properly. 

It is not a sign you need to M Night Shamaylan things until narrative is fuckin dead and “surprise endings!” reign supreme. If no one can guess what will happen, you don’t have a plot, you have deus ex machinas strung together like a child’s macaroni necklace. It might be endearing and beloved but its hardly a fuckin masterpiece. 

To be utterly frank, this is where “NO SPOILERS! NO SPOILERS EVER! NO ONE IS ALLOWED TO BREATHE ABOUT THE PLOT UNTIL IT’S BEEN OUT ON DVD FOR FIVE YEARS” attitude has left us – And the studios ACTIVELY encourage that shit because first week viewing numbers are their whole lifeblood.

Sure, an “oh shit” moment is great, but if you’re doing it well, I should have that moment watching the show the second, fifth, or hundredth time, knowing how it will go. If being surprised were truly so important to a narrative, why even make a Shakespeare play? Is anyone out there still hoping Romeo and Juliet still get together at the end? Why make mystery novels into movies? Spoiler warning: Hercules Poirot gets the bad guy. Movies that directly follow historical events? Clearly worthless.

Come on, now. Sure, try not to spoil shit for people intentionally, don’t be a dick, but can we calm the fuck down and can Hollywood stop pushing this shit both in social media and with business choices like this?

Ingo doesn’t know it yet, but his earnest compliments and lilipup enthusiasm has earned him a life long fan.

Tis the season on Twist Mountain! Elesa, from Sinnoh, happily tromps around in the cold. Emmet remains undefeated champion of snowball fights. Ingo shivers his way across the clearing.

Look at em go!

Did you know route 10 has a history of landslides? I like to think that this route has always been a point of contention within Unova’s pokeleague, especially with such crumbly cliffs so close to their victory road.

(Anyways the Patrat and Pachirisu children find out the hard way about Route 10’s… unfortunate quirks.)

((On the plus side! Behold! A bouffalant calve!))

Welcome to Relic Passage! Help your local roggenrola, and the local gigalith are bound to help in turn. Though a few berries and some axel grease really does sweeten the deal…

My exact reaction when this happened

[xytaes]

[yellowjavkets]

what was the first media that you can consciously remember scaring the piss out of you and giving you nightmares (examples listed are specific to me I was a cowardly ass child)

horror movie you should not have been watching aged fucking eleven (the shining)

horror show your uncle let you watch (buffy, x files)

legitimate children's horror (goosebumps, etc)

adult horror comedy (Beetlejuice, little shop of horrors, etc)

kid show parody horror episode (hash slinging slasher)

"scary" scene from an adventure movie (Jumanji, princess bride, Indiana jones)

I could see why a kid would be scared of that (monsters from sesame Street)

weird commercial that made you scared

not remotely scary comedy (look who's talking, osmosis Jones, etc)

your best friend's older brother's vague description of a horror movie he watche

the pretend plot of bg3: you've gotta get these tadpoles out and stop a giant floating brain with delusions of grandeur

the real plot of bg3: in order to date us (the party) you must defeat our seven evil exes: a half-demon warlock patron, the literal goddess of magic, a vampiric lord, an insane cult leader , an archdemon, the goddess of darkness, and finally, the Trauma
