#ragad#rosencrantz and guildenstern are dead#think about it#in the movie ros makes stuff out of those scraps of paper and guil disregards - even destroys - them#ros is more often than not the one who wants to try something new whereas guil would rather they stick to the predetermined wisdom#''old ways are the best ways''#and the worst part of all is that - as i've already pointed out - guil has 0 media analysis skills#while ros - as pointed out in the section that gets quoted in the essay - can't take the lead with any new ideas#he's only good in support#tom stoppard i am going to kill you /lh#the whole essay is very good btw. you should read it.#narrative nonsense
