so like whether someone enjoys eeaao or not generally breaks down to their ability to accept sincerity and absurdity in rapid succession, basically having elasticity when it comes to things that break your immersion and things that require your full immersion, and anyway i think the reason i can do that with so many things (not just eeaao) is because i grew up watching pantomimes
#thunder rambles#wrote this post in a few different ways. decided there was no good way to get my point across. decided on the 'i refuse to elaborate' part#part? sorry i meant method😭im on mobile and im not retyping#anyway heres the elaboration if ur interested#pantomimes are built around a broken down third wall and are largely very superficial and comedic#however you still have scenes where you are immersed in the comedy and forget that its just actors on a stage#and then you have scenes where the actors are talking to you (or forgetting their lines!) and that immersion is broken but that breakage is#owned by the actor#and i watched a lot of these#and yeah yeah everyone nowadays loves absurdism because of the sociapolitical state of the world. so im not special for liking absurdism#but i think i am relatively alone in my ability to switch between absurdity and sincerity so rapidly?#and its the thing that endears me to something the most#so bojack horseman miraculous ladybug eeaao#that back to the future parody that got claimed by incels#all of it has complete tonal whiplash but often carried very well#like i never laugh harder at anything than at an episode of ml#and i am laughing at the intentional jokes but most of the time im mocking the sheer ludicrousness of it all#the plotholes the animation the characterisation whatever#but i do it out of love and im still down for the more serious scenes because they are SOOOO earnest and sweet#anyway yeah same is true for eeaao. hot dog fingers i will defend you forever and always#broken down FOURTH** wall. i swear to god im not drunk😭
