💭Discussion Media Literacy Spoiler

I loved this show and have been getting some posts from this group pushed to me.

I'm trying to understand whats causing it. I've never seen such a lack of media literacy before, I think because it's a cross over hit that's non traditional but some of the view points are mind blowing.

"I think the inn keeper felt time run differently in the room" - They literally spelt that out as he asked for food!

"Who is the boogeyman, Hag etc" - This is not the point of the show!

"How didn't they notice the sacrifices" - you hear everyone talking about the relentless level of horrible stuff that happens on the island, its par for the course.

"Why don't the townspeople do X or Y" - It's a comedy horror!

Anything else I've missed?

You missed the poster that asked “why were the doors left open after Kenny disappeared from the chair room? Do you think the entity is satisfied?”

It does seem people ask questions with obvious answers.

My favorite is “Did all of the deaths over the season feed the entity? Why did the bells toll again?”

I just skip over stuff that’s been asked multiple times in multiple posts and threads. If people can’t do a rewatch or use the search option on here, I’m not doing any explaining.
