I don’t write reviews, I write about MY PERSONAL EXPERIENCES with things. If I do write something resembling a review its to communicate what a particular piece of media means TO ME which has absolutely nothing to do with YOU. What I like, why I like it, and why it resonates is personal TO ME. A review tells you more about the author who wrote it than it usually does about whatever is being reviewed. I’m not trying to convince anyone they should like something or dislike something just because I do, that would be nonsense as all media is subjective and EVERYONE IS DIFFERENT. Someone’s opinion of art has NOTHING to do with anyone else. The making, and consumption, of art is ENTIRELY PERSONAL. My opinion isn’t about you and has nothing to do with you. If you are triggered by how a random stranger online feels about the media they consume you should seek help in the from of therapy or spiritual enlightenment and healing.

A Different View
There are 3 primary reasons people watch media and none of those have anything to do with truly appreciating art. Soaps aren’t high art, but they are an art form … and a means of employment.
