I know they eat this stuff up, that's why guys like Nolan are so popular even if they are very very flawed. That's why I also said the target audience is way bigger than me. Just writing my opinion, because I like to write.
I don't necessarily hate it, I'm a OC fan after all, but what was like a novelty and really in your face gimmick but yet very subtle too, now has the companion of not so subtle at all cartoonish gimmicks that are inserted into the main event. It is what it is.
