The relatively rare "correct" use of the meme template!

[-] fosho@lemmy.ca 2 points 6 days ago

if the template requires specific knowledge of the scene or movie context that is largely irrelevant to the joke then it's the wrong template.

I shouldn't have to read deep into the comments in order to get it.

Fwiw I also think using it the "wrong" way is perfectly defensible - I'm okay with things evolving beyond their original context!

I'm not familiar with the meme template, but I would have expected it to be blurry without the glasses?

[-] MHLoppy@fedia.io 20 points 6 days ago

The original context of the scene that the image comes from is that he (Spiderman) originally needed glasses, but didn't after gaining his powers - so putting them on with his now-fixed eyesight actually causes the blur: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qj7CXKwPfdc

Because the intuitive understanding without the context is as you've described, memes using this template often reverse it so that putting on the glasses is the good/clear image and without the glasses is the bad/blurry image.

Makes sense, thanks mate.

Came here to also point that out.
