So even though he ultimately decided the scene didn’t work and changed the film accordingly, you’re still upset at him for having the idea in the first place? I’m sorry, but that’s pretty weak.
I think your powers of comprehension and deduction are pretty weak. It’s pretty obvious in both the initial post you replied to and the below one that he is not just talking about that one deleted scene.

Yes, but it betrays RJ’s feelings and intentions going into this. So, he’s taken off some of the sharper edges, but he still turned the Jedi’s 1000 generation legacy of peace and justice, and the OT’s theme of hope and redemption into a legacy of failure for both the Jedi and Luke personally. It’s more revisionist than Lucas has ever done.I think your powers of being able to engage in a civil discussion without acting rude and immature are pretty weak.
Says the one that admits to being snarky whenever they reply.
This:
“I think your powers of comprehension and deduction are pretty weak.”
is not “being snarky.”
It’s just straight up hostile and nasty.
No I was calling you a hypocrite.
And my response to Joe was not hostile nor nasty. It was a dose of the medicine he’d just given Dre. If he can give it then he can take it as well. I thought Dre made a valiant and fair point, Joe simply tried to shut him down and outright dismiss his opinion which I shared so Joe might as well have directed it at me as well.
Yeah, in hindsight I could have approached it differently. So could have you who replicated the behaviour you were taking issue with? Hmm…
Wasn’t hostile or nasty? Dose of the same medicine? What the hell are you talking about? Joe’s been nothing of a model of good behavior, which is far more than I can say for you or most people in this thread (including myself). I feel like the only crime he did in your eyes was liking the movie in the first place. It’s telling that you haven’t responded to him since he clarified his point.
That’s your point of view. Mine was that he did reply in an unnecessary fashion. I’ve already admitted it wasn’t the best route to go. I don’t personally know Joe or have much experience so far of his posting history so I have no knowledge of his model behaviour. His reply simply continued to dismiss Dre’s opinion so I really had nothing more to say on it.
Also my original post is nothing monstrous like you’re make it out to be. I replied to him in the fashion I felt he’d replied to Dre and then explained why.

It’s clear you’re overly emotional about this movie and taking out your anger on other posters. I should have just reported you to the mods instead of engaging. Next time you act like a dick to another poster, that’s exactly what I’ll do.
I AM emotional about this movie, it fucking ruined Star Wars for me as I knew it. I now have to maintain my own head canon that won’t gell with other family and friends I go to talk about it with that don’t see it as I do and now I have nothing new to look forward to that carries on what I love in the OT.
But no, I am not taking it out on other members. I simply hit back when I’m hit. I don’t see myself as a punching bag. Next time you act like a dick to another member, I’ll be reporting you to.
