Humans, Hickling said, have a fundamental need to create and maintain a narrative for their lives in which the universe is not implacable and heartless, that terrible things do not happen at random, and that catastrophe can be avoided if you are vigilant and responsible.
Hickling said it well, but Wilson said it better:
That’s good. I hadn’t seen that before. Reminds me of the backlash against a woman — Alannis Morissette — playing God in Dogma. Getting disturbed when your fictional representations are altered in other fictional representations always struck me as funny, even if the same thing happens to me sometimes.
Then again, I don’t think Thor is real.
