In Response To: Re: Purple and pink are long time Bungie game colo (Cody Miller) : And as I explained, context and intent go hand in hand. By removing intent, : you remove context and vice-versa. I disagree with that - in our example du jour, what Pixar intended for Ratatouille ('art is good, criticism is bad, women are artists too') doesn't get special weight in our reading of Ratatouille, taken in the context of modern culture and cinema. We don't lose anything by acknowledging that their intent does not dictate how we read the movie. The reader, after all, has access to the entire cultural context when they 'read' Ratatouille, or Halo: The Fall of Reach. That context is part of their experience.
