I'm the WOSTR!

For years now, I've had this question.

The documentary

Who's filming?

Who are the audience?

Why is this documentary being made?

In the film, the documentary crew got into a secret party, in the series, they're regulars at the vampire council, in both, vampires are condemned for presenting to humans, so who's watching this franchise in this universe?

I'm going to speculate...

It's government, maybe a religious sect, university, royalty or billionaires etc.

He can't possibility terrify them all.

Why bother?

Why didn't she just slip away with Rose for a walk one day back when she was posing as Mia?

Why did she have to wait to get busted?

She had time to allegedly buy a creepy book from town so her and Ethan were hardly joined at the hip.

And another thing

What if Moreau succeeded in eating Ethan?

75% of Rose would be gone and Ethan would have failed to dispose of the two lords Miranda needed rid of most - the needy one she couldn't buy off and the one she knew not to trust.

Mother Miranda is perfection

One of the best villains I've seen.

She has a sad back story but she's quickly far removed from it

and

isn't it nice to get a female adversary who isn't 'jealous' of another and wasn't 'driven mad by a man'?

a spore,

that spread it's foundation into the nearby village, was destroyed by one little hand held bomb that's explosion didn't affect a helicopter flying nearby?

I'm seeing critique such as:

• Lady D is not a great mother after all, she spoke about the effort it took to raise her daughters, which means she saw them as nothing but property 

• Donna is mentally ill and did nothing wrong

• Moreau is manipulative and playing up being down trodden, how could he be childlike yet trick Ethan and carry out experiments 

• Heisenberg says he wants freedom but he is in the wrong and just as bad as Miranda for wanting to use Rose and making bioweapons

To sum it all up, I return to part one..

Why not all?

Responsible, loving and caring people can still have room to be shallow.

*Disability is rarely some stop sign that renders its host inept in all areas, don't be surprised when those who chronically struggle surprise you.

There isn't a right or wrong way for a victim to behave, what we grew up knowing never really goes away, but influence isn't as simple as a circle.

Alcina, who's decadence is clear, being materialistic and a good mother, it's possible, it's honestly not that unusual?

Donna and Moreau being playful and needy, immature adults who were happy to be adopted regardless of age, yet also being proactive, good at their jobs, and displaying a malice and manipulation that can only come with life experience, that's not that plausible.

Karl wanting to escape a matter of fact bad environment whilst also having confidence and ambitions that may or may not parallel his leaders? Must everyone escape and be a charitable saint who knows best? Is there a certain type who don't deserve compassion? Only time could have told if Miranda-Karl comparison was even fair.

Fin!

I'm seeing debates such as:

Why dismiss all of Heisenberg's efforts to break free and topple a long serving dictator? Efforts that took place over some period of time, before the Winter's were on the scene, all because he was keen on using a fellow bioweapon? 

As wrong as it may seem to suggest using Rose, whatever that entails, being a test subject is all he knows, it's his reality and probably not even much of a necessary evil. 

He was realistic enough to know he needed help and he was sensible enough to not throw his life away in a wasted earlier attempt to go up against Miranda. 

He didn't succeed in his plans to make change, so who knows where his schemes would take him in the future had things worked his way. 

Miranda set to work manipulating the vulnerable immediately upon gaining insight, Heisenberg grew up under her reign and received favorable treatment from Miranda, yet still woke up to the fact that she doesn't see the difference between family and property, why dismiss his experience?

I’m seeing critiques such as:

• Lady D is not a great mother after all, she spoke about the effort it took to raise her daughters, which means she saw them as nothing but property 

• Donna is mentally ill and did nothing wrong 

• Moreau is manipulative and playing up being down trodden, how could he be childlike yet trick Ethan and carry out experiments 

• Heisenberg says he wants freedom but he is in the wrong and just as bad as Miranda for wanting to use Rose and making bioweapons

Why is it hard to believe that Moreau, the family scapegoat who’s desperate to be liked, could figure out that he could stall someone, who hung around to heckle him, by keeping them talking?  

Could he, like Donna, have a childlike nature, yet be competent and formidable opposition? Yes.

Is it possible that he’s the classic case of brain injury? Where a basic black and white outlook is sadly common, social norms and filters are few, motor skills aren’t always great and sickness can be common, yet somewhere in there may still exists a person struggling to express themselves who is then seldomly given the chance because ‘disabled’? Yes.

Are both the case? Maybe?

Why would anyone enjoy being picked on and singled out by their family they’re clearly attached to? Not everyone is up for cutting ties or fighting or bantering back. Unfortunately, many people allow narcissists to occupy too much of their time.

How could anyone deny his sadness and modest needs? Not only is his sorry state clearly uncomfortable and all his dialogue telling, but he detailed his treatment in notes that matched the sob story he tried on Ethan, meaning this tale was no lie, a distraction but transparency none the less.

Why underestimate Donna?

A generic ‘mental illness’ tag, on top of her nature and tragic upbringing still doesn’t mean cluelessness just slots right in there too. From what little we get of her, she was very expressive through Angie and had one line of dialogue as Donna, yet she always made sense. 

Yes, she has a childlike nature and appeared to play hide and seek, yet she also subjected Ethan to a twisted and very personal test, the realistic Mia manican and unnerving voice messages that made up a storyline, before this horror escalated to introduce BABY!

Our all knowing merchant the Duke let us know her playmates never leave.

Donna maintained a professional relationship for many years with her gardener, who had known her since childhood, yet he vanished upon receiving an invited into Donna's home, this was just as her powers came in, powers he was the first to experience.

It may be easy to underestimate Donna as we get more Angie and no big monstrous shape shift, but Donna did not need a giant monster form to hold her own, she had a skill set that differed from even Miranda's.

It’s easily possible Donna was an immature lady immersed in her own ideal world, happily able to express herself properly - a way that was perfect for her, all down to receiving her gift and the powers that manifested, whilst also being able to understand and follow orders. 

She was a creative by trade, had she lived in a booming capital city where she was paid high pay for commissions, how many would see her as just another eccentric artist?

I’m seeing critique such as:

Why can’t Alcina be devastated at her daughters unexpected murder AND be upset that all the dedication she put into parenting has been tossed to the wind?

She’s within reason to feel Ethan “ruined everything”.

Personally, I can’t understand how anyone could dismiss over 60 years of closeness and unwavering routine, this family didn’t set out to impress anyone, they seemed happy as they were. Lady D grew attached to her daughters the moment they were 'born', spoilt them rotten, was keen to bring home a gift (Ethan) and held them to high esteem, she was obviously a materialistic and arrogant person, does these factors render someone no parent?

This may seem a strange example, but imagine someone claiming your child, or even dog, was no good, simply because they disliked children or animals. Though it’s a given to want to defend your loved one, is it beyond reason to not appreciate someone dismissing all the effort, love, care and teaching you put in?

RE8 four lords

Are they?

Aren't they?

This is a slight of a character study and a look at some perceptions I’ve seen throughout comment sections, beliefs that have stood out.

Criticism is generally interesting, yet within Resident Evil 8, our antagonistic character are so well rounded, I'm finding it tough to see anything, out of place.

I’m seeing critique such as:

• Lady D is not a great mother after all, she spoke about the effort it took to raise her daughters, which means she saw them as nothing but property 

• Donna is mentally ill and did nothing wrong 

• Moreau is manipulative and playing up being down trodden, how could he be childlike yet trick Ethan and carry out experiments 

• Heisenberg says he wants freedom but he is in the wrong and just as bad as Miranda for wanting to use Rose and making bioweapons

My argument to these questions is..

Why not?

Why must they be one element or another?

Does being a parent stop you being a person?

Does an ailment or two occupy each and every aspect of your entire life?

Does being unfavorable and confident mean you're hardship matters less?

I'll explore further...
