Thread:Talk:Subtext/Anyone disagree that Fast Eddie's Annie Hall example isn't subtext at all?/reply

Well... That example from Annie Hall has been on the TVT wiki since the long, long ago. 2006, even. The Other Wiki says on subtext: "A scene in Woody Allen's movie Annie Hall, in which subtitles explain the characters' inner thoughts during an apparently innocent conversation, is an example of the subtext of a scene being made explicit."

At least someone thinks its an example, and a good one. Subtext is things not said; conclusions inferred from actions that aren't explicitly stated in the work. I guess the example is technically an aversion, but it's the exception that proves the rule. Or, in an ordinary conversation, it would remain subtext, but here it's in the text.

Is this a good page? Not really. 90% of the content is one example. And there are exactly 0 mentions of Xena: Warrior Princess! *single tear*. Anyway, comb through the page history and see if you can come up with something. Or the wikipedia page.

And um, sorry about what happened before. Locking pages that need to be improved sounds kind of counter-intuitive to me.
