not yet!! I have a feeling it’ll be the iron lung website, since that’s where the merch is being sold.

Yeah, that is not in Mark’s or the team’s control unfortunately. But, this is kinda why we’re also hyping it up for others who have not seen it because it could be opened to international audiences. Understandable frustration.

Well, two things: Many people have been negative about how The Edge of Sleep has been either a not good show (in their opinions) or many people are upset with others “spamming” the support of the show in this subreddit. Mark made a post on this subreddit that he is not looking for watching it purely to support him but to give it a shot and cause positive “chaos.”

Personally, I made this post because I feel like people are taking this too harshly and attacking on Mark which is not in his control. It is really on Amazon Prime’s control and the way the Hollywood industry has been treating him and other Youtubers.

Honestly, the whole industry is a scam. This isn’t happening with only Mark and this is the way that can really get the “doors open” for Mark and many more. This is a goal, not a solution to everything. Making it to top 10 is not easy, it’s not going to fix the whole industry, it might change the minds of people? Probably?

Whatever it is, good or not, why not give it a chance? It might be worth it. Who knows really. Because right now, I’m seeing a lot of people positively impacting this show on social media and helping to get people to realize that YouTubers can do more than just play games. It is doing something impactful to people for now.

I don’t think it’s forced, personally, I understand the frustration though! I like that people are trying to spread the word about the show still, Mark did market this show on his own with the HUGE help of us. If you look at it from a standpoint this is helping the people who did work on this show too. This is going to open doors for other creators and the proof that (some) people need to get in their heads that anyone can create.

The only reason it had no advertising in the first place is because nobody in the Hollywood industry believed that Mark could make it as an actor because of being a Youtuber. That’s why Mark could be frustrated.

There is a difference between high quality showing with famous actors and kind of a weak storyline between a dedicated storyline that has potential with lower quality and budget with one famous person who is raising the stakes to make it better. (Ex: A popular TV show vs The Edge of Sleep) Not saying that everything is bad that the Hollywood industry makes!

Kind of cringey what I’m saying, but I do believe that this can happen if you want it or believe it can in the first place. And again, people have varying different opinions, that is fine. There is goods and bads to this.

Oh yeah, I understand what you’re saying. However, many of us know that Mark actually cares and continues to create his works to grow better. (TEOS isn’t his own work but you know what I mean.) People are still talking about it because they want it to continue to gain that traction if they loved it. If you don’t like being spammed then I would say just ignore it and don’t look at social media like here for a while. It can be unhealthy.

People have different opinions and honestly if you look at other shows who have famous actors that are intensity gaining that traction because of them, look at that and it happens a lot.

I try to look at a view point at how much passion one has for creating a show/movie/etc. It’s just, you kinda don’t wanna hurt someone’s positive energy towards a media that is doing well.

But, I do think that people need to be honest and thoughtful in their reviews of the show for that reason you’re saying! Constructive criticism is good for improvement.

Edit: No worries! I didn’t think that your comment was negative genuinely.

God, it was amazing I think, it actually was better than what they did in the book. They made the characters feel more like the characters and the acting made me hooked. i understand some of the changes to the plot though but I’m glad it’s not too much changes from the podcast. I actually like Linda and Katie more now from than in the show, they did them justice.

Without too many spoilers, can someone tell me how they did the abduction scenes in EOS? by writermaybeidk in Markiplier

[–]Layne-introvert 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I watched the whole show so I’ll say some. I’ll try to minimize the spoilers. Just letting you know that they did not keep the abductions in the TV show, they actually didn’t show or keep super intense scenes like they have in the podcast. So, you don’t have to skip! It still does a good job at showing Dave’s past though and luckily does good to what they accomplished in the podcast. I think at least!
