There’s “Death of the Author” a critical perspective that hold that an author’s intentions and background don’t really matter to the intepretation the work evokes in the viewer. You can still enjoy, transform or derive whatever meaning you like from the work regardless of whatever the author is doing on twitter.
Since many series that have inspired transformative works are not written by a single author- they’re the work of a creative team, or a series of directors, or so many writers that the latest weren’t even alive when the series began- I propose a new term: Cataclysimic Exctinction Of The Authors, a critical perspective that acknoldeges that Group Projects Are Terrible and that the veiwer should feel free to sift through the rubble like a paleontologist, looking for exciting fragments to reconstruct into new interpretations, and to disregard the dirt.
