spectacle

to draw attention by unwittingly embarassing themselves



Spectacles
These are people in their teens to 20s who dress in outlandish attire to create a "spectacle". Spec is an abbreviation of this term. There is not a particular look to a spec, but it's more about dressing in whatever they want. Outfits are commonly self-made using craft materials. Specs will often use metaphors to contrast like and unlike things. ie/Corruption and children. Aside from their attire, specs are interested in art and often create their own art. Art is what they live for. Art shows are what often bring the specs together.
Example:
non-spec: Why did you just do that?
spectacles response: Because it's art.


Spectacle creep
A phenomenon occurring when the creator/creators of certain a media franchise (in games, movies, comics, etc) try to keep things fresh and interesting by unwisely making everything bigger, better and more spectacular. This can lead to the feeling that everything up to that point didn't really have a point or that everything after this point is pointless since it's just so ridiculously over the top.
Example:
"First Gotham, then the world!"
Mr. Freeze on Spectacle creep


Spectacle Fighter
A term first coined by "The Escapist's" resident Australian game critic Yahtzee, to describe a genre of fighter in which a game's focus is on the visual beauty of fighting enemies as opposed to actual realism or other aspects of game play.
Example:
All you ever do in Mad World is kill people extravagantly for points - it's totally a Spectacle Fighter.
