Need to develop a list of incredible coincidences in fiction including
Dennis the Menace (US) and Dennis the Menace (UK) first published on the same day in 1951 and "the cone of silence" a trope fist used by the novel Dune and TV show Get Smart! in 1965
by "know less" I simply mean, there should be less ambient secondhand "knowledge" floating around about media and discourse about a work of art can be just as toxic as marketing. I think the marketing for Digger, You Can See Everything is simply in response to this problem
Anti-spoiler hype is a marketing psyop that perpetuates the gamification of movies! There’s more to good art than the thrill of surprise! Free your minds!
