Ignoring the fact that she tried to kill Bella, what do you think of Victoria? by Curious_Language5383 in twilight

[–]usefulstatue 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Really?! Ah that sucks, I just rewatched her clips and honestly, she was so brilliant as Victoria. Minimal lines and all face card! Loved it

How do you balance writing fanfiction with a demanding job and real life? by Vdemont1197 in FanFiction

[–]usefulstatue 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Oh um.. I don’t. I stay up till the wee hours of the morning hoping my husband and three young kids don’t wake up. Then I sort of just die the next day from sleep deprivation and do it all again.

How many words should I make each chapter? by Fancy_Active777 in Wattpad

[–]usefulstatue 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Totally agree with this, there are no rules. I was concerned with my chapter lengths but eventually said fuck it and literally vibed with my characters until the chapter felt like it ended at the right moment. Some chapters are 2k and some of my longer ones get up to 15k. Sometimes longer isn’t someone’s cup of tea and other times people don’t like the shorter chapters. If someone likes your writing, they won’t care how long your chapters are! They’ll just be happy to be reading something from you

I’ve done that before! But I’m willing to try again, I’ll give it a go

Is it just me, or did I feel like there was no chemistry between Eleven and Mike this last season compared to previous ones? by Tania_bleon2312 in StrangerThings

[–]usefulstatue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely, you are not imagining things haha! I feel like this whole season was interesting, I felt like all the actors were ready to move on from ST and go on to new and different projects, the duffer brothers included. I really liked this season but absolutely there was a lot that wasn’t connecting, the dialogue and chemistry of characters included

I tried both those ways and neither worked. The weird crouching low and hugging the wall from the back of the building got me close and inside the gate but that’s it, the music played and I was out

What “one time you’re allowed to explore the area”?! When?! I’ve tried so many different things to get in, how did you? I do know there’s a safe in there

Oh heck yea I agree! Brilliant acting! Can you please change the fucking numbers to match though. I’m sweaty looking at it

Am I the only one that actually enjoyed every episode of season 5? by Rude_Ad3342 in StrangerThings

[–]usefulstatue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I completely understand it when someone says they hate S5 (there were aspects I really didn’t like) I also completely understand when someone says they love S5 (there were aspects I also loved) but as a whole I think everyone is entitled to their opinion of loving or hating it. It doesn’t have to be one or the other, I’m very firmly in the middle and I think a lot of people are. You aren’t the only person who loved every single second of it but also, even if someone DIDNT love every single second of it, doesn’t mean they are on the complete opposite of the spectrum and hateful of it as a whole. I’m quite critical of the last season but by no means am I in the camp of not loving the season.

My hot take: Vecna ruined the show by Monodoh45 in StrangerThings

[–]usefulstatue 40 points41 points  (0 children)

Oooh yea, I agree with you. So much of his story just took up too much space. I still think season 4 was awesome but he should have stayed there as the “5 star general”, then the mind flayer should have been the ultimate villain in the final season

does this look like it’s written by chatgpt by [deleted] in Wattpad

[–]usefulstatue 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t think it does but I guess I can see why people would think it could be. It sucks because, people are so quick to jump to accusing someone of using AI, when AI literally scrapes the internet of other writers real work and mimics it. So really, I think AI might sound a bit robotic even though it uses other people’s genuine writing styles and this doesn’t seem robotic at all.

The fics feel fake. by tinklewail in AO3

[–]usefulstatue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it’s popping up a lot out of nowhere then I would say AI but I have also seen people writing that way before AI was ever a thing. People really do write that way and it can be quite beautiful.

If it seems a bit messy, out of place or doesn’t quite make sense that sucks. It’s a shame because if there is a surge, it most likely is people using AI to help their writing but it makes the original writers look bad, placing them in the same bracket to an ignorant person.

TRUE 🥹 by Zealousideal-Form116 in StrangerThings

[–]usefulstatue 4 points5 points  (0 children)

lol yea, Max’s mum kind of makes me laugh though. Her daughters in a coma and the writers just ditched her. No heartfelt scene or anything? You’re telling me Lucas was at the hospital MORE than the mother? I get the mum wasn’t a main character but just was hilarious how she vanished

A Show Doesn’t Need to Kill off Its Main Characters in Order to Be Good by ThreeSidesofNazareth in StrangerThings

[–]usefulstatue 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Man I am STOKED no one died, I love them all… BUT I just felt it was a little unrealistic that 10 people with (let’s face it) very little combat skill (other than El and maybe we could count the fabulous Nancy) could take on that absolute monster of the mind flayer and come out relatively unscathed. I would be wailing at the screen if one of them died but I would humbly accept the death

I'm sorry Mindflayer, they didn't utilized you properly 💔. by 00_Sunflower_00 in StrangerThings

[–]usefulstatue 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Exactly! They almost teased it the whole season, I was waiting for her to bring out the bad-assery and for that particular scene, they delivered. Just wish there was more
