Amen. Apparently for some, rather than describing a specific dramatic genre, tragedy = 'during a movie, something sad occurs at some point.'

Exactly. Becuase our hero was under some huge problem and failed something, but ultimately Prevailed.... That's not a Tragedy. That's a god damn MOVIE.

I do want to say that I'm not actually mad, I'm "cineplexitly incredulous" in that good way.

I mean, man.... he's not even seen Pan's Labyrinth... and that movie was like MADE for those two clues.
