Ehhhhh, I think there are valid reasons NOT to cover it. A young person attempted suicide because she got caught in the middle of her social groups conflicting priorities.

Because the nature of social media lets you block all the conversations you don't want to have, which makes it harder to empathize with people who don't fit into your favored view of the world.

Your opinions are making me angry.

Your the best!
Unti-il!
We leave local municipalities!

You can't just 'like' your own posts, it's not proper!

A substantial number of reasonably intelligent economists have a raised some valid critiques of Keynesian models, and the applications of those models to real markets.

Israelite…

Don't pretend you wouldn't see that movie five times on opening day.

Woooooooooooooooooo!

I can't even sit through Let's Plays of Alien: Isolation, much less play it.

You know, Grint could be a pretty good Yorick in Y: The Last Man, depending on his ability to talk American style.

Yeah, as much as I might criticize youtube for 'lowering the bar' when it comes to quality in general, it's been an undeniably positive asset to certain subgroups. When filmmakers don't have to play to business-standard rules about episode length, age-oriented content, and advertiser-attractiveness, you can do some…

I'm going to see if this is porn parody that exists, and if it isn't, I'm going to be furious.

Yeah, it's the sort of mechanic that works according to a pretty narrow set of plot circumstances, and it would get tired quick removed from that context.

I had the benefit of coming to it late in the game, when they were up to episode 70 or so. I would say yes, it's worth it to see through to the end, but there are caveats.

There's a youtube series called Marble Hornets that comes up with a great rationale here. The hook is that a film student and his pals are making his project in some woodsy areas before the menacing stuff starts to creep in over the course of weeks of intermittent filming, and the length of the series lets them slow…

I watched it with commentary years and years back, but I remember that too. They talked about how the woman actually did that bit by improv, and just sold how mundane that type of material is for most people, and the little kid sells how fucking scary it can still be.

Marble Hornets shows off all the strengths of FF. It maybe got too big by the end, and the actors weren't always convincing, but it just captures the beauty and simplicity of found footage.

Thanks! Hopefully that's how it pans out. I'm optimistic (which might sound pretty low-key, but if you know me then you know "optimistic" is a pretty big friggin' shift from the baseline).

You've got a loose cannon!
