:::Why would I think that [[P.S. (webcast)|P.S.]] was intended to be a "What If"? I absolutely don't think that. I think that it was a combination of the material they had on hand for a scene they were working on, made into a form that was watchable for normal audiences, that they then released for the enjoyment of the fans. Similar to ''every deleted scene ever''. If Darvill had come back to record lines after they knew about the availability issue, that would change things, but there's no evidence of this. If the drawings were done after they found out that would change things, but there's no evidence of this. It's literally a half finished product stitched together for fans' enjoyment. I like it! But that doesn't mean that there aren't massive R3ish concerns. It's not even slightly similar to anything that anyone else has compared it to in this thread - it's not a reconstruction, it's a preconstruction. You can't reconstruct something that never existed.

:::: I think it has to do with intent. The planet [[Carnathon]] having its name used was meant to merely solidify a detail from the script. The person who wrote that short story would never say that they intended that every single detail in the shooting script be "canon" because of this easter egg. | |||
:::: Whereas [[Anthony Williams]] being name dropped in ''[[Summer Falls (novel)|Summer Falls]]'', ''[[Rory's Stag (short story)|Rory's Stag]]'' and even ''[[The Lonely Assassins (video game)|The Lonely Assassins]]'' is clearly a series of reference to the viral webcast. I think this was the writers saying "The events of this story really happened." And the ''PS'' short does exist in some presentable form, it's not just a script PDF online. The two cases just don't feel comparable. [[User:OttselSpy25|OS25]][[User Talk:OttselSpy25|🤙☎️]] 02:28, 1 May 2023 (UTC) |
