Folding Ideas is a YouTube media analysis show hosted and written by Dan Olson (aka Foldable Human). His style is relatively analytical among other internet reviewers, mostly observing works within their cultural context rather than from a fan's point of view. Dan formerly used 'Foldy,' a puppet talking box, to serve as the host of the show, but has since opted for his own appearance in later videos.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })His videos are found on his Youtube channel. His videos were formerly hosted on his own website and the now defunct Chez Apocalypse.When he is not working on his own material, Dan has frequently contributed to Lindsay Ellis' post-Nostalgia Chick work, including filming and co-writing several episodes. He also played a large role in managing H.Bomberguy's 101% charity stream, particularly with regards to the guests who appeared during the stream.

Actually Pretty Funny: In his first video on Fifty Shades of Grey, he points out how the best moments of the adaptation are the ones that adjust from the flaws of the original source material, including moments where it calls itself out for laughs. In specific, he points to an early scene where Ana drunkenly calls out Christian's inconsistently possessive behavior. During his summary of Fifty Shades Freed, he admits to liking the joke about Ana admitting to having something to restrain Jack Hyde, also for being intentionally funny.

Adaptation Decay: In "Earthsea and Adaptation Sickness", Dan goes into why this tends to occur, primarily using Earthsea by Ursula K. Le Guin and its TV adaptation as a specific example. Also discussed in his episode of Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun-Li, which ironically suffers from an attempt to do the opposite. One of the biggest changes is the entire backstory to the title character (changing her from an Interpol Special Agent to a Fish out of Water concert pianist), seemingly done as an attempt to make her more relatable, but actively works against core parts of her character that could be otherwise Hand Waved ("Why does she know martial arts/combat training/not freak out when a gun's pulled on her/care about the criminal scheme? She works for Interpol.)
