The only parts I interpreted as personal were those exaggerations because I had previously admitted that I didn’t see any problems with them. So when you go on and on describing how “this is far worse than anything I’ve seen in any professional film” it made me feel like you’re questioning my sanity despite you claiming that you weren’t dissing me lol.
But anyways, yes, I agree. Let’s move on.
That wasn’t an exaggeration, that’s my legit perspective. It’s a very normal bit of feedback for an edit, perhaps the most common one of all. The goal is always to avoid making it feel like an edit. We’re trying to make it seem like this is something that could have been released officially. When someone says they don’t think it passes that test, you don’t argue with them about it for pages. You say “okay, fair enough.” That how this works. The sooner you can accept that feedback like that is typical and in no way personal, the sooner we can avoid these agonizingly pointless arguments.
Sorry if I sound harsh but you’re posting a lot of ideas and concepts here, which is great, but we can’t go ten rounds on every single one.
