"Sharing a story you care about is like ripping your heart out and submitting it for peer review." As a writer and an artist, I felt that.

I really like Spider-verse's use of Bathos. Several scenes early on subvert our expectation, or are in some way played out for laughs, but the third act is RIFE with moments that mirror the earlier jokes, but are played completely straight. Especially Miles' leap of faith. Earlier he was too scared to jump and went down the stairs again; he fell next to a building before, an onomatopoeia mockingly chasing him down; the Stan Lee cameo assures him that the cheap suit will fit him eventually (it better, cuz no refunds). Now he's wearing a suit that fits and befits him, wearing web shooters that Aunt May even say fit perfectly, and while he is still nervous to hell and back (hence the shattered glass as he jumps), this time he does go for it. And then when he swings through NY, he launches himself up a building, an onomatopoeia of his cheering following him upwards. It's almost bathos in reverse. First they establish a joke, or deliberately use bathos for a laugh, but later scenes parallel the funny ones, but this time with complete sincerity. I think it's utterly brilliant. I mean...hot take of the century: Spider-verse was good.

love a good reverse bathos, when you set up a joke, and all of a sudden it turns into something heartbreakingly real, hitting you right in the feels

The best highly specific case of the older definition of bathos is encountering the phrase “among us” in any media context

The problem with Bathos is that, if it's handled badly, it's one of the most obnoxious things ever.

My favourite thing about George Lucas and the original 6 Star Wars movies is the fact they take themselves seriously and that he wasn’t afraid to show his own vulnerability. Moments like “you were my brother Anakin” hit me sincerely because of how sincerely the characters, actors and Lucas were in creating them.

"... Self-depreciating humor is really only funny to people who are comfortable depreciating you." This quote hit me like a truck. It helping me realize why I keep making self-depreciating jokes all the time and why I should probably stop. I know this probably wasn't the intended goal of the episode but you have really helped me out to think through some stuff.

The other way sincere bathos works for me is like...a character making a dumb joke in a stressful emotional situation and then everyone starts laughing/crying because they genuinely needed that. It becomes a sweet friendship moment

As I just recall the "She doesn't get eaten by the eels at this time." interruption in Princess Bride, where it cuts the action and tension, but not in a way that belittles anything. Having the commentary come from outside the story lets it have the best of both worlds.

I'm surprised you didn't mention ALTA. I feel this is a comman trope they employ. When you describe Bathos my mind immediately went to this scene Iroh: [grim] Who would have thought, after all these years, I'd return to the scene of my greatest military disgrace... [suddenly cheerful and puts on a flowered hat] Iroh : ...as a tourist!

"Your Dad, The Goose" is genuinely one of Jolie's greatest line deliveries of her entire career...

I will defend the "Toss me" Gimli scene. It shows something he is embarrassed about, while also showing that he is able to swallow his pride and do something he considers humiliating if it means saving the day. It also shows that he cares what his friends think about him when he says "Don't tell the elf." And the fact that Aragorn acknowledges this shows his respect for him. It isn't so much that we can't take sincere people seriously, but for me, seeing someone do something silly who is usually serious is just as humanizing as the opposite. I think that is what that Gimli brought to the table.

Hear me out: Bathos can work really well when the subversion is much better than the expectation. Spongebob: That's not the worm! Sandy: Pardon? Spongebob: That's not the worm! That's his tongue.

4:05 Okay but a character responding to "You were my BROTHER!" with a sinister, mocking "Look at this idiot with FEELINGS" is actually pretty good, if it were toned as disrespect toward their relationship rather than an edgy "feelings make you weak" sort of way.

I've seen some writers discuss that the big fear of vulnerability driving the rise of bathos isn't fear of the eventual theater/consumer audience reaction, it's the other writers and producers on a project. It's scary to be emotionally vulnerable in a writers room, and feels a lot safer to pitch a joke that breaks the tension.

"Like the boy who cried wolf, the story that cried 'punchline' will train its audience to always anticipate a joke or a quip." This right here is one of the most apt and concise ways I think you could describe the double-edged sword of bathos.

As someone who has literally just finished a Creative Writing class at college just two days ago, the line of “sharing a story you care about is like ripping your heart out and submitting it for peer review” hit me, as we did that multiple times, both with short stories and poetry.

Best version may simply be the boy from "The Princess Bride." We see him undercut every dramatic turn, ask if we can skip the kissing, until at the very end, he realizes - "I don't so much mind the kissing."
