honestly never understood the idea of sequels that "ruin" the series like??? it's all made up. literally just don't look, and if you do for some reason, just mentally put it in the same folder as fanfiction. the concept of the "validity" of a piece being dependent on whether it's canon or not is completely fabricated bullshit made up by cappies, lame-o's, and narcs trying to force "intellectual property" agenda down your throat. write your own sequel. be your own cowboy. i hope you dance by lee ann womack.

#ipj speaks #was thinking about this while watching the hoyever man's youtube dot com videos on the Houses October Built films #saying that the second one 'ruined' the ambiguity of the first which is not wrong at all #but it carries the assumption that ur obligated to accept a sequel as canon once youve seen it when u can just... not #maybe its just my super sick wizard curse (autism) talking or my being a sw fan but im so used to ignoring garbage canon that its w/e #i mean there are plenty of series where its nigh impossible to accept ALL releases as simultaneously canon bc they contradict each other #also while my wording in the post implies facetiousness; media companies leverage yr belief in the idea of canon against u to earn money #the only thing that materially sets them apart from any ao3 user is their platform and capital. the rest is all bullshit
