Mediocre media has always been such a bane to my existence. A story with an amazing concept but poorly executed is like, the anticipation for the next instalment, left in a perpetual purgatory for all eternity.
The Painter from Urbanspook. What do you mean the Red Man did it? Mona has no urgency as a character and her place in the narrative is like she never even existed, and we were duped into believing in a story that was never real.
What do you mean, Bandersnatch was only good for like, the first 15 minutes?? It was like euphoric liquid herorin embodied in a concept. A mix of Stranger Things (before that went to shit, too), The Matrix and LSD Dream Simulator. Video game sci-fi nerds in the 80s, with a shit-ton of LSD trying to understand this reality bending magic system?
I wish I could tell you what happened because I genuinely can't remember. Except the opinion felt afterwards that the hype leading up to the choose-your-own-adventure was the best part. Not a good thing when the idea of your execution is more exciting than the actual thing.
