I’ve watched shows, movies, read comics or listened to podcasts where there is a lot of build up around a mystery, only for the end to be lackluster. In these the journey itself was more riveting than where we ended up. What are some instances where the answer lived up to the hype?
Not sure if it’s what you’re looking for, but I’d say the mystery of the dead bear cub in central park 10 years ago. This was minor news back then and basically was forgotten about, until RFK Jr. (former third party presidential candidate) admitted to being the person behind it, confessing it to a confused Roseanne Barr.
I’ve never heard him speak. What an odd quavering voice he has!
He has a neurological condition, spasmodic dysphonia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spasmodic_dysphonia)
Fascinating, thank you.
There’s no way I’m the first person to think of this, but it’s just crossing my mind right now - imagine if his story is complete fiction and some certifiable lunatic somewhere is absolutely raging over stolen valor.
This also just crossed my mind, after reading this and seeing who is claiming the deed.
This is not relevant to the story, but like, what the fuck is happening in this video? It looks like someone tried to artificially create a depth of field by rotoscoping Roseanne and adding a blur to everything behind her or… something. There’s definitely a matte around her that’s occasionally flickering and fucking up. It’s hard to say what exactly because it’s so compressed, but there’s also something else about that video as well (besides it’s subject matter) that’s just really weird.
I had completely forgotten this was even a thing, and even more bizarre timing of the reveal behind the person.
