That's a genius scene because she's technically right, but her overreaction was unhinged, a peak at her real self.

A paradox of most IP is that it's kept afloat by the army of casual fans, who don't care as much about continuity.

Maybe you're joking, maybe you're not, but the online forum fury over the exact nature of spiderman's web squirters was the rubicon moment for Internet nerds bullying Hollywood.

The bit in Misery when Kathy Bates was complaining about the matinee movies lying to their audience? We were supposed to think that she was a bit mad, right?

Ara sure, they can just reboot it and pretend it never happened. Hire Harris Dickenson or whoever as Bond as a young fella.

Remember that when Joyce made his celebrated "scrupulous meanness" remarks about the writer's objective, he was sending Nora letters in prose so generous in its descriptions that they shock readers over a century later.

Every list of writing tips is "don't use adverbs, don't describe weather or faces, don't have sex scenes if you can just imply they had sex, full stops and quotation marks are for babies, don't have subplots, flashbacks or any exposition at all"

Mate, you sound like a dog warden in a cartoon!
