not trying to be a hater bc i think that’s dumb and i don’t think zepotha is worse than goncharov because it’s a marketing stunt. i’m pretty sure the girl marketing her song is like. a teenager, and she’s just trying to come up with something that will get her song noticed and good for her. here’s why i actually think zepotha doesn’t work: no one is committing enough to the bit. i have seen equal amounts of people Explaining the joke of zepotha and discussing the logistics of making up this movie as i have seen people actually playing along. goncharov did not have that problem even a little bit. NO ONE broke character. any discussion of goncharov was completely and totally playing along with the idea that it was totally real. anything that was out of character was like, vague posts about how funny it was with goncharov merely tagged. zepotha can’t be goncharov because no one committed enough, they were too proud of the idea.
