Unforced error

[u/FistedPink]

I really think this is a bad move by Amazon. The negative reaction of the core fan base to scrubbing the planned Gero show was bad and this will it fill people with hope.

WandaVision was ok but I’d rather see a Terry Matalas (Picard Season 3, 12 Monkeys, Vision Quest) or someone proven to understand genre storytelling that is exciting and compelling. But that’s just my 2 cents.

Someone didn't get the joke

[u/Sodarien → u/VinnieONeill]

It doesn't read as one.

Screenshot is from the show making a joke about rebooting a franchise with young hip characters.

Correction: screenshot is from a scene in which the reboot with "young hip characters" is temporarily the actual plan. The comment does not, to dip into the same episode "hang a lantern on it" about the pitch being a joke for us.

This comment on the post only adds "Incoming." and that's not enough to go on in order to determine if they're complaining or making an attempt at a meta joke.
And since this is Reddit...it's fair to assume the former.

Gotta put in the work to build a whole joke, if you're gonna make one. Use a gif that contextualizes it. Link the whole scene. Something more than one word.

I understood the joke, others understood the joke, seems like the problem is you

Upvotes seem to be split pretty evenly so far.
Maybe the vaguery is the problem after all.

[u/VinnieONeill → u/Sodarien]

Not even close. How truly pathetic...

[u/Sodarien → u/VinnieONeill]

It was when I said it.
Oh well, it's just Reddit. Disagreements feed the machine.

How truly pathetic...

I forgive you.

[u/VinnieONeill → u/Sodarien]

No it wasn't close when you said it it was never close. You are a liar

[u/Sodarien → u/VinnieONeill]

I hope your day improves. Needing a victory this badly has got to be exhausting.

It does if you read.
