First, off, congrats on being so close to done! That's so exciting; it's a lot of work to make it that far!
Interesting older questions, I can see a lot of those same slants too. This question seemed particuarly interesting: I>How do you, as a viewer, feel if a show kills, then resurrects a character? I mean, if someone can’t stay in the ground, do you feel it “cheapens” the emotional impact of their death? Or do you now not get upset if a character dies?
This seems to happen a lot and it does generally cheapen things, partly because it is never given the emotional complexity it deserves. I mean, look at Hitchcock's Vertigo. (SPOILER here, but...) Okay, when James Stewart character happens across the girl again, she is not really the same, as her earlier personality was all acting, so that makes it a bit more complex, but all the emotional back and forth of someone dying and coming back, would mess with you alot. Yet the characters on stories where people come back tend to treat the pheomena litle better than a kid paying attention to the cafeteria menu.
Also- 4.) What contribution of yours do you wish had received a wider audience?
I always wan more comments. ^_^
So true for everyone, I think! Fandom is all about the connection with other fans! :)
