really funny that every website is in an arms race to make itself as bad as possible and immediately someone makes a firefox extension to fix it
avg day on late Web 2.0
The tragedy was very obvious. It was the entire point of the film.
i watched this video and its hilarious. they do the Bad Youtuber Video Essay thing where they just sequentially recount every single thing that happened in the movie with occasional comments, and when they get to the scene where truman’s best friend is talking him down and it’s revealed he’s just being fed lines, they go like (imagine i’m doing a burgerkingfootlettuce voice here) ‘If You Pay Attention... This Is Actually Pretty Sad”
I cannot stress this enough, write it poorly. Write the shittiest draft you possibly can, stick 'ah fuck something happens here and now they're fighting' to get over
Write the worst fucking version you possibly can and stick it in a folder and forget it for a month or two before you look at it again. You know what you have now?
A first draft. And with enough time to think some new thoughts about it, you'll soon end up with a better, second draft! And eventually, you'll end up with something you'd be perfectly okay with letting other people read!
You'll never believe this process works no matter how many times you do it, but it totally does. You just have to drag your brain kicking and screaming to that blank page and get the bones down first.
Write the shit out of that shit.
