In Spider-Man: Far From Home (2019) Peter Parker doesn’t realise that Mysterio is actually a villain. This is because he’s a fake fan and he hasn’t read the comics.
Monster’s Inc was an inspiration because of its depiction of monsters being more modern and bureaucratic, where scaring is more of a job and less just ‘something they do’. Plus the whole idea of their whole society being in what’s either another realm or a super secret location accessible by doors gave me a lot of ideas for the Otherworld.
So here we have our scare experts sharing a coffee together. Fearmongers are lucky, they don’t have to make direct contact with humans to scare them, they just have to get in their heads. Still, doesn’t hurt to share scaring techniques and tips with one another!
When people call you a “snowflake” just remember they’re quoting Fight Club, a satire written by a gay man about how male fragility causes men to destroy themselves, resent society, and become radicalized, and that Tyler Durden isn’t the hero but a personification of the main character’s mental illness, and that his “snowflake” speech is a dig at how fascists use dehumanizing language to breed loyalty from insecure people.
So basically people who say “snowflake” as an insult are quoting a domestic terrorist who blows up skyscrapers because he’s insecure about how good he is in bed.
