172.69.33.213: Corrected the [sic] text about the title text so that sic actually makes sense and is a direct quote from Randall (as opposed to the intended name from the story). Also, Biden sucks.

 ==Explanation==
-This comic is the second in the [[:Category:Horror Movies|Horror Movies]] series, and is the follow-up to [[2056: Horror Movies]] released a month earlier.
+In the title text Cueball (as Randall?) discusses the ending of the science fiction novel ''{{w|The Giver}}'' where the fate of the main character Jonas (misspelt here as "Jonah") had been left ambiguous. The joke is a {{tvtropes|DeathByNewberyMedal|stereotype}} that the {{w|Newbery Medal}}, a children's literature award, is only given to books with tragic endings. However, the protagonist lives, as there are three more titles in the series, two of which have the main character as a side character. However, those three books are rather obscure.
-While the first Horror Movies comic was about giving voice to [[Randall|Randall's]] inability to enjoy horror movies, this comic takes Randall's previous position and exaggerates it.
+This was the first of two comics in a row to reference a specific movie genre. (This one references horror movies, and the next one, [[2077: Heist]], references heist movies.)

 [[White Hat]] and [[Cueball]] (as Randall) discuss the appeal of {{w|horror movies}} and tragic plots. Cueball expresses his dissatisfaction with stories that focus on evoking negative feelings. As an example he mentions how he disliked the ending of ''{{w|Titanic (1997 film)|Titanic}}'' where Jack sacrifices his life in order to save Rose. White Hat does not seem to share Cueball's point of view on successful storytelling and sarcastically promises to send feedback to the movie director {{w|James Cameron}} as well as the 16th century playwright and writer {{w|William Shakespeare}}, whose most famous works include tragedies like ''{{w|Romeo and Juliet}}''.
