Ok so as of 21:15 UTC, 21st November, there have been
Of these,
I mean, I guess those numbers are bad enough on their own but believe it or not they're actually an improvement on this afternoon's picture, where the divide was closer to 70-20.
Now obviously, the reception looks bad, doesnt it? Yes? Yes?
Yes.
But what's worth noting is that even dealing strictly with these 2 extremes, & handing the advantage over completely to the positive side (I.e. the 10/10 ratings), you end up with something like this-
But the average rating is 6.6/10. I would've taken the distribution of the ratings directly but I dont see any means to access it on imdb (maybe I'm just dumb).
Which leaves us to infer indirectly from the data above, that the people rating the episode positively, aren't reviewing as much as the people rating it negatively.
From over 7,000 ratings, let's try and estimate the general distribution of responses & see how it compares to that of the subset which reviewed.
Again, dealing strictly with extremes, we can reduce the problems to two variables for which we have 2 linear equations available
Let x be the percentage of 10/10 ratings, & y that of 1/10 ratings, then
I would've gone for a linear programming solution but there simply are not enough constraints without removing the other 8 variables from the equation.
62% said 10/10.
An almost completely inverted image of the reviewer response.
Its
Interesting.
There's really nothing this proves. True to the spirit of statistics, this was mostly pointless. All that can be substantially concluded is that at the very least, the people who were disappointed by the finale felt far more strongly about it than the people who weren't. The people who cared more were the ones left heartbroken. Whatever that's worth.
Maybe it’s the new moon, but today I feel as if I’ll fade away. That my existence will cease its hold it has on me and I’ll slip through realities fingers. That laying here still will force me to drift away into my dreams. Where my innards haunt me and comfort me alike. And if I wake up, I’ll feel ok again. I know the pain won’t ever go away. But for as long as I lay here, it will be forgotten. So let me lay here for eternity. Please let me lay here.

The velveteen rabbit, margery williams, 1922
@dreamnovak :( i abosolutely on point, but ur blog has beautiful gif-set studies and i think they say a lot, plus the softest one liner cas appreciations make me melt.
randomly gonna attach castiel’s theme (actually the whole destiel theme, that is the cas’s theme melting into destiel overlay and ending in dean’s theme that plays during the confession scene poetically)

ps-plz reblog with castiel studies. :(((
i scanned your beautiful cas tag, but i still can't find any meta analysis posts of castiel's character, the sheer majesty and depth of the precious character are so much, but i couldn't find much on tumblr abt cas's psyche and arc in words. like there's a lot of wonderful dean character studies( because ze is beautiful and deserves it. ) , and they're lovely, i want some cas ones too.
hello!! honestly yeah i agree with you :( every time i try to talk about cas it dissolves into me just rambling incoherently because he’s so big and it’s incomprehensible!!! I’ve said this before but I don’t even think the show understood what they were getting into? They just casually offhand mention that cas is almost 400 million years old. And then casually mention his true form is giant. And then also, later on, they suddenly make him a member of an endangered species (a species who consider themselves a family) and they just......gloss over the potential emotional impact of that
like I can’t even THINK about it all at once, let alone write about it (although I’ve tried to explore his psyche a lil more in fic, it’s just...so hard to be comprehensive)
i know you said you went through my cas tag so idk if anything on my blog will help but if anyone else has excellent cas analysis they wanna drop in the replies pls do

A tiny Castiel is passing through to say hello! Reblog this tiny Cas so he can travel all over
rubik’s cube = group = music notes
ps- this was just my solving of the cube, not the most effecient steps, neither the most dearranged cubr, 5*5 cube btw, and i’m v v v out of practice, so its lot of extra moves, but it does.
i did try to keep the time consistent, so u may be able to backtrack my og position of the cube by translating music back to moves.
