The intelligence of SW Fan boys.... — Page 3

I just wanted to clarify,

I originally came to the thread because I found the theories that were being invented by these so called 'fan-boys' to cover up plotholes to be piss-funny, I don't have a problem laughing at their expense, ( thankfully they are few and far between on this site), nor do I have a problem with having a laugh at ole George's expense from time to time.

but then the thread and a lot of other threads on this site have recently degenerated into a viscious mean spirited bitch-fest, and the boards seem to have been hi-jacked by a small number of vocal newcomers. it's pointless arguing about who and what constitutes a 'fan-boy' , it's like two guys arguing about who has the smallest dick.

At last someone who speaks sense. I’d like to agree with ‘The Bizzle’, who seams to be the single voice of sense in an endless mass of insults, rattle throwing, half truths and outright lies. This forum has degenerated to low levels recently, and has been the sole reason why I decided to stop posting. But after a long break and curious reaction to the recently released DVD’s I decided to have a quick look in. I signed the petition and support this sites stance, but it is very difficult to read through endless threads of insults and negative diatribe. Frankly I have better things to do then read post after post of fiction pertaining to be fact, and then seeing the fiction used as fuel for hate campaigns.

Bizzle I would just like to say I support your views. It is very heartening to read an intelligent post. You are not alone. There are many of us who want to hold discussions, based on documented knowledge, but feel pushed out by ill informed posters quick to shout you down. I hope to continue reading your posts

Thank you for the compliments.


...I see it utterly killed the thread, however.

I win. I pee on my balls, typically. I have to straddle the toilet/urinal and let the yellow goodnes cascade down the wrinkled folds of my sack to gently plink off of the pink urinal cakes.

oh, and I'm glad someone else noticed this Sam_Lu kid is possibly the most uncreative, uneducated (about the movies, that is) and one-note poster here. To tell the truth, I'm betting about 9/10th's of this boards horrible supernegative fanboy image comes from that kids constant unfunny ranting. Hell..he compared not getting the OT on DVD to SLAVERY.

SLAVERY.

"I can't get Star Wars on DVD the way I want it"
vs.
"Strip me, degrade me, take away my name, whip the shit out of me and make me work 18 hour days for nothing while you rape my wife and steal my children."

And he was SERIOUS.

Yeah, and your posts go a long way towards improving the overall tenor of these boards as well...

Oh, and you missed an apostrophe in "kid's".

What scathing wit, it seems nobody can stand against the relentless onslaught of your considerable debate skills.

Seriously guys, can we please just let this thread die? Please? When it has come to the point of correcting somebody's mastery of the language, I think it's safe to say that the steam has gone out of the arguement.

Let's just chalk this one up to experience. 'Kay?
For as much as some people claim to hate what Star Wars has become, they sure seem incapable of shutting up about it.

Finally, a reasonable idea in this thread.

Ironically, it wasn't even intended in that regard. Bizzle's the one who originally brought up pointing out misspellings as a "valid" debate point. I simply returned the favor.

Tighten up your panties, pops. I called you out on it because if you're going to strain yourself using 10 cent words to beat me about the head with, you need to SPELL THEM RIGHT, because it destroys the illusion you're trying to set up if you can't implement the terminology properly.

And you are quite possibly the most oversensitive fanboy on this board. Even when people AREN'T shitting on you, you act like they are. It's getting to the point where if people aren't very deliberately tossing your salad, you start to get miffed. Chill out. Stop taking everything so personally. I can understand the feeling, especially since you spent over a thousand bucks SPECIFICALLY to make Laserdisc captures that will end up only being JUST as good as a couple other people's already, and including features already available (original scroll, isolated score) on other captures. I could see where this would frustrate you--but jesus, man. Please stop taking every comment as if it's a dart aimed solely at your heart.

Or I'll feed you to the fucking cat.

Just look at the kitty kitty, how cutesy-wootsey it is:

This cat is the least disturbing thing in this thread.

Well, it's hardly straining for me, but then again, for some reason, you like to pretend you know me. Apparently, you believe this adds weight to your arguments.

And let's see - one foreign word with one misspelled letter (the "i" is next to the "u") typed at 2:00 A.M., versus an absent punctuation point in a simple english word in the middle of the day.

Hmmmmm.

Oh, I forgot - one misspelled word ruined the "illusion" for you, and yet you don't think any of the changes in the films really affected the films at all. LOL.

"I can understand the feeling, especially since you spent over a thousand bucks SPECIFICALLY to make Laserdisc captures that will end up only being JUST as good as a couple other people's already, and including features already available (original scroll, isolated score) on other captures.

LOL. Once again, pretending to know what my transfer even looks and sounds like in order to make your case. I and many others on these forums will take Rikter's informed opinion over your playground taunts any day of the week. Such venom doesn't affect me at all anyways, because I'm doing exactly what I wanted to do. This is what makes me happy. At the very least, I'm learning valuable information about LDs and DVDs. Just make sure that you don't bother to download my version when it's done, okay?

Anyways, I'll stop cluttering up this thread, and even leave you guys with a little something to stare at in my wake (when in Rome...)

Its somewhat reassuring, I think, that this thread deteriorated into people posting odd feline photographs. It was really getting scarce on content.
Now its just a grin-fest. I wish I had a pic to put up here.
