  • Hire the Critic
rdfs:comment
  • Ooh, looks like Ralph the Reviewer has made some pretty scathing comments in his new review of The Trope Tale! He says it's got a terrible plot, the storyline is too familiar, the characters are bland, etc. I bet the author of The Trope Tale, hard at work on the sequel, won't be too happy to hear his dissent! He might even write in a jab or two! Next on Ralph the Reviewer: "Apologies, but my reviews are going to be put on hold for a time, because I've just been hired to work The Trope Tale 2 as its script supervisor." Wait, what?!

Next on Ralph the Reviewer: "Apologies, but my reviews are going to be put on hold for a time, because I've just been hired to work The Trope Tale 2 as its script supervisor." Wait, what?! Why would an author of a media work hire a guy who hated his previous stuff? Maybe he agrees with the critic and wants help to avoid more story problems. Maybe he wants an Honest Advisor who won't be afraid to tell him what's wrong. Maybe it's to back up his Let's See You Do Better challenge. Maybe it's to show him how hard helming a story really is, and that it's easy to criticize it when you don't know its trials. Or maybe it's to nullify the critic, because he'll be less likely to criticize something if he worked on it, right? Compare Cast the Expert, which a critic may technically be, an expert on story.
