Eh. We can crow about how justified we are and how mistreated we’ve been about the OUT, but the truth is our side can be real dicks. There’s a viciousness here recently that I don’t think is proportionate or appropriate.
I imagine there’s a sort of desperation involved. Most of us are used to it by now, but even still, when I think about the whole situation, it can make me want to scream. These are three of the most undoubtedly popular films of all time, that have had a huge impact and influence on so many films and filmmakers. The fact that there hasn’t been an official release for them in their proper form, and the fact that somehow no one in charge seems to care, can kind of drive you crazy.
What helps and doesn’t help is how much awareness of the issue is increasing through the internet. The complaints are more wide spread and louder, but that means they can also be more obnoxious. As usual, reddit is making everything worse.
