like hunting down a video to click on a bunch is creating some kind of insane stake like that either because you don't think it's real or you think it's some kind of marketing ploy for something or maybe you want to be a part of a movement and you think he's guilty so he deserves it or you're just one of those people who has like a sick fascination with wanting to be involved in someone's death if they do make sure to explain why they couldn't just get the video pulled immediately it has to do with where it was hosted so like there's no reason to get all uppity about that so i was just really excited to get pulled into this web of online mystery and like social media backing craziness but then it feels like they squandered that element like pretty fast in terms of like the forefront of the information we're getting a lot of online elements ended up getting mentioned or introduced that could have been really interesting like doxxing and hate brigades and online tracking but it all just kind of feels like it's happening in the background but we'll get there a good mystery now there are a couple of factors that tend to just be universally known as what would make like a good mystery or like thriller that has a twist but i also think that there's different types that are effective for different types of viewers in terms of like suspense you've got the classic hitchcock like if there's a bomb under the table like tell people that there's a bomb under the table and you're now enhancing that level of suspense but when it comes to twists i think there's just like that universal standard that you want to introduce something that surprises viewers but when you go back and think about what you just watched or if you watch it again you'll start picking out the little pieces that build into this like crazy reveal i also don't think it's inherently bad to be able to guess where a story is going as you're watching as long as the story's being told well and it's not the result of like poor writing and you feel that the characters are being dumb about something obvious great examples of these types of thrillers include things like the sixth sense psycho seven memento the prestige movies that reward you for watching and paying attention rather than just dumping you with some kind of outer left field hail mary an example of that type of play that is not necessarily a good show but is very addicting to watch would be pretty little liars where a is constantly changing information collides and it feels like the show runners are just making it up as they go along to milk it for as much as they can super fun to watch just to watch whatever dramatic nightmare they come up with next but i would never watch that show trying to like actively piece together things in super logical ways because they have shown time and time again that they are willing to just change who a is at the drop of a hat to keep the show going but that's okay because the show isn't trying to reward you in that way it is focusing more on the dramatics and like the interpersonal relationships with these characters it's a teen drama i know what i'm getting into and clickbait seems to fall somewhere in the middle of that there's actually a fair amount of threads throughout that you can pick up on they give you hints
