Contextual Subgenres

Couple quick updates:

  • The videos have been updated with better clips, some new movies, some old ones taken out. The Makeover one is a more reasonable length (5 mins), and the clips have been shortened to 30-35 seconds for convenience.

  • Social Change is now “Activism”, as that term is a bit more flexible in terms of creativity.

  • I had to redefine what the subgenres were a little bit, because the movies were getting lost between them. Brokeback Mountain certainly did not feel like it fit in Makeover once you actually watched the movie (I think it’s probably in that fourth, unknown spot), and The 40-Year-Old Virgin’s goal actually extends to all four of the leading men (all of whom have to become more mature), so it’s more of an evolutionary goal than a makeover goal. My next job after the Universe subgenres is to write exactly how to differentiate between each subgenre, so that will no doubt help everyone identify their stories much quicker.

At the moment, no. And I can’t see myself being able to afford to keep one up and running for the foreseeable future, so at the moment, that is an option only if I can find a relatively cheap one. I’ll start looking after Christmas, and see what happens.
