So why even waste time in this thread?

To annoy you, of course.

I’m pretty sure that’s not relevant to the thread, and furthermore just makes you look childish.

Guardians of the Phallusy, anyone?

Sorry, I should have said “just reaffirms that you are childish, and possibly a child.”

The only children here are you two. I don’t make childish films for attention.

No. You make childish insults for attention.

You crave attention with your trolling!

The projection is strong with this one.

lol, I was going to say something but you beat me to it.

Is this supposed to hurt my feelings or something? You’re gonna have to try harder. I recommend insulting my dead child or my autistic child, your choice.

That explains your posts.

Don’t encourage people to press your buttons. That never ends well.

Where were you in '77?

Genuine question to mods: what constitutes a strike?

The fact that this forum was seemingly made to get the Out
re released on a decent format reaffirms for me that there will only ever be 3, true star wars films. The rest are ‘cover’ versions.

that all the other films never happened.

If only this was true. I think any classic film(s) should be protected. I’d hate to see another Godfather for example. I’m dreading Blade Runner 2!

“Protected” from sequels? Ehhhh…I will argue that films should be preserved, regardless of quality. Ex., the prequels’ original cuts, hell I’d even defend shit like the Super Mario Bros Movie (which I’m still waiting for a region-free bluray of).

However, sequels/remakes should be fair game. It’s up to the filmmakers whether it’s good or not, if it is, well no complaints here. If it’s bad…just let it fade out of existence like most shit films. For instance, the Ghostbusters reboot. If all that hate boner-ism wasn’t built up around it, it would’ve came and gone, the only impression left being Ecto Cooler and an awful Rotten Tomatoes score. Oh wait, that’s already happening. So much for all that time, energy, and vitriol all it’s detractors poured into it.

So remaking Psycho, shot for shot is okay? Copies of masterpiece paintings are called fakes! Is film not art?

Is remaking The Maltese Falcon okay? 😉

Depends on the situation. A newbie who doesn’t understand the rules yet, vs. someone who’s trying to see how far they can get away with bad behavior.

I’m also pondering if it’s okay for people to shit on the OT because of ROTJ…I am extremely incredulous that you would be okay with that. Given your hypocrisy and all.

ROTJ is a good movie. Just not as good as Star Wars and Empire.

TFA is not a good movie. It’s a bad movie. Just not as bad as the prequels.

See the difference?

ROTJ was great while TFA was utter crap. That is a big difference.

ROTJ was good but it was NOTHING in comparison to SW and ESB. TFA is really good imo but it could be garbage in comparison to VIII and IX. So regardless of how you were to phrase it there is still a huge gap in quality depending on your position. For the people who dislike ROTJ could they judge the entirety of the trilogy based on 1 installment?

Yes because even if they judged OT based on ROTJ it would be great. If they judge new trilogy based on TFA, it would be crap.

The people in this scenario would have a generally unfavorable opinion of the OT because of ROTJ so your position is of no consequence. Having said that would they be right to hold that negative opinion?

The belt? Only if you wrap it around your stomach.

The STRIKE ZONE is that area over home plate the upper limit of which is a horizontal line at the midpoint between the top of the shoulders and the top of the uniform pants, and the lower level is a line at the hollow beneath the kneecap.

ROTJ is a weak movie. Just not weak enough to ruin the OT.

TFA is a weak movie. Just not weak enough to ruin the ST.

See the difference?

TFA is as bad as PT.

Eh, you’re falling off. The old Impscum, the TRUE Impscum could have dressed up that rehashed comment in a more satisfactory manner.

They are both bad but at least TPM is super creative compared to TFA.
