I was originally going to say something when he gave his list with his "Hollywood" buddies but I decided not to because I didn't want to come off as starting something but after continuing comments, enough is enough.
You said some posts back that you liked the edit for the most part I believe and were looking forward to watching it with buddies, you go from that to name-dropping (with out the names) and give a list of likes and dislikes, or more abrasively "what they loved" and "what they hated". Now take no offence, but I don't care who these people are. Whoever they are, as far as opinions go in regards to this film, they are no different from the rest of us, unless you had over Rick McCallum, George Lucas and Steven Spielberg, maybe throw in Francis Coppola for a second opinion. I myself work in the industry, but I think that's moot because I don't think it lends anything to this discussion. So unlike some, I leave what I do at the door and I don't presume anyone cares.
Now again Mojo take no offence, your opinions are valid and perhaps you only have the best of intentions. But ultimately an opinion is all it is at the end of the day. You're going about this in a way that's not politic, a very necessary part of this professional world. And also in a way that you're trying to push the direction to a degree well beyond constructive criticism. That energy would be well spent perhaps doing your own preferred edit. If you are as good as you say you are I for one would love to see what you come up with.
Sorry for the rant everyone.
Lastly to Adywan:
Just keep on keepin on brother.
