RE: Trailer Review - Zombieland: Double Tap (2019)
Hey Mork, Beautiful post and we are being really tight here, but we don't feel movie reviews are creative.
Please don't use the Creative Tags for these.
Really?
ATTENTION Creativecoin Komerads
You vill write only about topics approved by the Decentralized Comittee for the righteousness and purity of the coin. Any other topics or functions are DISAPPROVED by the Comittee and therefor not to be used.
Eat more potatoes kommerads, and buy our coin. The Comittee wills it so.
Don't be like that. If the tag doesn't mean anything, then why have it. :)
You can use the tag on some posts and not others. :) lol
In all honestly I don't understand how it is not? Movie reviews are considered a form of creative writing since the inception of film, many, many moons ago, it is no different than reviewing art or books, or music, or poetry. A review is by definition the original and creative thoughts of the author regarding subject matter, which happens to be a film. It is fundamentally and philosophically no different from photography, the photographer did not create the subject matter, it is but a perspective or a "review" of the subject mater from their point of view. Ergo, what seems to be in contest here is the subject matter.
I get where @bigtom13 is coming from, it does come off a tad bit authoritarian, especially when reviews of any kind are generally accepted as creative writing, and the tag line is "Creative Coin Accepts ALL Creative Content!".
I would implore the curators of @creativecoin to review the exclusion of film reviews, as this could turn into a rather slippery slope of what is subjectively considered to be creative. Also maybe an official guideline or explanation about using the tag, either on the CreativeCoin blog or in the discord server would be of great help.
Great points
