Misaimed Fandom/Film: Difference between revisions

* [[The Silence of the Lambs|Dr. Hannibal Lecter]] attracts a lot of fandom despite being a European aristocrat by birth with strong intellectual leanings who still displays snobbish elitism and who has little tolerance for poor taste. Oh, and did we mention he's also a maladjusted serial killer who eats his victims?

* The villain of [[Thor]], Loki. He is very clearly beloved by the fandom, particularly the female audience due to his very sympathetic portrayal. However, there are some fans that think that he was plainly evil and not sympathetic at all. This creates uncertainty as to whether the writers intended for Loki to be as popular and sympathetic as he became.

* ''[[Scream (film)|Scream]]'', a horror parody, actually helped the genre live past the 80s.

** More specifically, it was intended to be a parody and final-nail-in-the-coffin for the Slasher subgenre. The film wound up having the opposite effect, and actually breathed new life into the then-dying genre.
