I'd like to say something on the reaction of this film

Let me just say that I can respect and understand your feelings, both sides of you, towards this work of fictional entertainment. You want more than to be entertained, you want an experience. You probably want some light to settle the darkness spreading over your life. You want to see the type of medium that you think deserves to be made when you think of the title, concepts or genres: the best that it can be in itself. Yet, as I have painfully learned, whatever one expects, they shall not get. You may expect something to be good, only to be disappointed in bitter frustration and negativity. You may exepect something to be bad, only to find it a pleasant surprise.

The truth is, you will always find both in EVERYTHING you encounter in your life. You make the choice as to which of those affiliations you associate with. I have heard most prominently a phrase that sums it up, and not just to pacify the negative side: “You may not be able to change your circumstances, but you can change your attitude”. You always have a choice. You can choose to side with the negative. You can choose to side with the positive. Rather more beneficially, side with a healthy combination of both, the only greatness in what feels right to you, the choice you can live with for the rest of your life. Acknowledge the negatives, but see that they made the positives better. Not everything can be 100% perfect. It will not happen. Some things only need to be just good enough in order to make the bigger picture better. If every little thing were 100% perfect, then the bigger picture would be ruined, because it created more negativity about it. Positive and negative will ALWAYS coexist; they are one and the same. Whatever you decide does not make you any more positive or negative than the next person. Yes, there will be disagreements, but it is absolutely impossible for one to agree with 100% EVERYTHING the next person, even if they were backed up by billions of majority, believes in. Not just in fiction, but in life in general with regards to its offerings. This thematic element has helped me get through. I do wonder why people live in fear of others, letting them be controlled as if part of a robot assembly line, or a slave of flying monkeys. Yes, you must listen to others.

Yes, you may need to know of others’ experiences of something you indulge in, but ultimately, it is all YOUR choice in the end. What one may find positive, you may find negative. What one may find negative, you may find positive. If you do not venture out, you will not gain anything. This is YOUR life, YOUR experiences, YOUR feelings and viewpoints. You WILL have to face both positivity and negativity in both large and small amounts from time to time. Do not let them control you? Its how u deal with them that shapes who you are, and it is not always the common way to do so. There is such a thing as right and wrong, but only to you. If you are always right, you are wrong. If you are always wrong, you may indeed be wrong, but at times you may be right. ”It is not hard to make decisions if you know what your values are”. If you know what u want, you think of the best way that suits accomplishing it that makes sense to you and that would fit into the bigger picture of what your life. Guaranteed, there will be many others that will not agree and will attempt to stop you. You can choose to let them dictate you, or fight against them. At times, you will need to do both; letting them dictate you can open your realization to something previously overlooked that could make your decision better. But if you always let them do that, then you will not grow. You will not experience. You will not live. You will have regrets where it is too late to change it, and will be angry at your ignorance for not listening to yourself, or others. You will need to fight them as they do not agree with you, and not standing up to them will at times result in failure of your goals, and the destruction of your confidence and self worth, the annihilation of your development of you as a person as a whole. You may fear being wrong, but nothing will ever come to being as scary or wrong as betraying who you are, including your values, beliefs and bigger life picture. “You either die a hero, or you live long enough to see yourself become the villain”. Better to die with passion fighting for what you believe in instead of being controlled by others. Why live if you are just a mere puppet? If you like your life like that, then so be it, but if there are foreseeable complaints, then do not come crying to me.

All in all, we are talking about a subjective experience that is different from one to another. If you already know that you do not like concepts or mediums like this, then do not bother. If you are unsure, read summaries, watch trailers, or just do not bother. If finance is an issue, then either do not bother or ask someone you love, repay them later, or just flip a coin; whatever it lands on does not need to dictate the precise answer, but it will show you which outcome you feel more emotionally invested in. Better to just do it then waste time and energy worrying about it, unless you are surer than not on one side of the positive/negative structure. You do not need a critic’s consensus; chances are they will be very wrong with your own view and you may end up missing an experience that could change your life, or getting into an experience that ruins it. Trust yourself, not anyone else’s. Who cares if it gets panned or acclaimed? In your view, it means something. Your favorite medium may get panned; your least may get honored. You may want to view something in a different light, but is it really necessary? It could have consequences on your well-being or others’. This medium could be all that you or one other has for solstance, a source of inspiration into something better, like a reinvisioning, or something similar that is improved. Do not let others prevent you from living or dying, for that is experience, that is life, that is enjoying
