Just let the attacking stop enough already.

LOL

A piece of advice - it generally comes off as pathetic and laughable if you ask people to stop making fun of you and take you seriously. ESPECIALLY with gramer like that.

Those deserving of respect, don't demand it.
Those ridiculed undeservedly, smash their haters with a wall of logic, hidden sarcasm and witty repartée.

The others just whine.

I'm not ok I just want some to stop making fun of my posts every time I post here. If you don't like my opinion's that's fine but don't make fun of my posts.

But he didn't make fun of you just now.  Yeesh, no need to be so sensitive.  Meanwhile, congrats on being seen as a near-god on theforce.net boards for posting a screenshot of your "email", while your inbox suspiciously only had 2 emails.

Could someone repost this screenshot?  I haven't been able to find it.

Also, I hate to agree with 2/4, but I agree with 2/4...except for the "wall of logic, hidden sarcasm and witty repartée" nonsense.

I have analyzed the footage released on the german site. Actually I wanted to release some comparison pics (see below) regarding quality/colors. But I found two most interesting screenshots - movie frames. The first one further indicate that Episode II seems to get a recut in the final fight between dooku and yoda. There is a frame there which is not on the DVD. And there is an Episode 3 frame from the Kenobi/Darth Vader Duel that is not there on the DVD as well.

Judge for yourself.

Another info for the german fans. The german blu-ray trailer indicates no new synchronization, that's good news at least.

It was obviously a hyperbole, but why, it's true - if you're posting something serious and people start pointing fingers and laughing, you'll put them into place rather than whining about how you're treated.

What do religious people do when they don't like someone ridiculing them? "Show respect".
What do scientists do? Show you a bunch of facts, how verified their data is, and how familiar technology wouldn't exist without it.

The reactions are just different ;)

I know this isn't the point of your post, and I know it's technically correct...but it makes me sad that you called him Darth Vader there.

But... Sidious had already given him that name :P

Did you read my whole post, Mr. You-Didn't-Read-My-Whole-Post?  I said it was technically correct.

Since you waaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyyyyyy overuse emoticons it is impossible to tell if you are serious or not, therefore I will assume you are serious and answer your question.

The idea that Hayden Christensen is actually Darth Vader makes me sad.  Or, to put it another way...vaderisnothayden.  :D :P ;) :) ;) ;) :DD :ppp

Oh, btw, the way Sigourney Weaver responded to ridicule in Avatar, was the wrong way to do it ;)

I never said the problems of 2004 would be fixed I said it would be nice if they where fixed.

Hmmm, selective memory at work again:

kenkraly2007 said:

Because LFL has learned from their mistakes and will get it right this time around. The reason why the sound mix for ep4 and the colors where rushed is because they had to meet a dvd release date. Some don't belive that but it's a fact. This time around LFL will get it right.

kenkraly2007 said:

Here's proof that the colors on the blu-ray release of the star wars will be fixed. http://www.mediafire.com/?2c36vh18yc9ryjc              Now can you please stop saying that they won't be.

kenkraly2007 said:


No I don't. But the blu-rays of the saga will sell well desbite all of the complaining about how the transfers about the picture and sound and it will be the best the films have ever looked.

kenkraly2007 said:


I've talked about this with you for 7 years about the dvd color timing issues and sound mix problems. We know about them my opinion is all of those problems will be fixed for the blu-ray release by LFL and hopefully they will be. You have your view opinions on star wars and I have mine.

kenkraly2007 said:


The Star Wars Films will look good on blu-ray come this September. And I'm sure LFL has taken their time to get the transfers of the Special Editions of the OT right this time around and knock on wood all those errors from the 2004 dvd transfers of the OT will be fixed and correct (Sorry if I said that before) also the prequel films will look good on blu-ray I'm not worried about that.

Adywan I know I sometimes do say the say things over and over again but I don't mean to.  The blu-rays of the star wars saga will be great when they come out. And complaining about the errors / flaws is not going to do much good.

I'd like to apologize to skyjedi for calling him "the horse-murderer" of the forum the other day...it's clear he's a distant second to ken.

May I just say that the contention on this board is getting ridiculous?  I mean, I really enjoy Star Wars.  But on the other hand, I have a job, a wife, three children, I will be going back to school soon, and I have ecclesiastical responsibilities.  I enjoy other films, read books, spend time with friends, etc.  As much as I love Star Wars, and I assure you it is no small love, I seem to be able to keep the perspective that it is...just a series of movies!

 

GET OUT THE TORCHES!!!

 

Also, let me add that I am a stickler for grammar and spelling.  I certainly make errors too, but I almost always catch the multitudinous mistakes that so many who post here make.  I think it is unwise to criticize others of sounding ignorant because of such mistakes, as I know many intelligent people who make language errors, there are patrons here whose first language is not English, and those who criticize make quite a few silly mistakes of their own.

I feel like I'm picking on twooffour a lot, but I continue to notice that he often seems to be in the heat of these angry conversations.  I wish that I could come here, read where I see a new post, and not have to sift through a bunch of worthless arguments over a fictional movie series that we all enjoy.

To keep things on topic, I look forward to to Blu-ray release, though I doubt I will be getting it right away.  I'm thrilled about the deleted scenes, and I would not mind a high-definition release of the films, even if they are the SEs.  Sure, they have many silly additions, but some things I do enjoy.  And my opinion is just as valid as anyone else's.

darth_ender, you do realize you are on originaltrilogy.com, right?  Of course people are pissed about the Blu-ray release.

If the OOT were to be released, you wouldn't see nearly as many people here upset about the SE.  The major complaint is that the SE has REPLACED the OOT.

This, on the other hand, was the quote of the year.  Although I believe the "gramer" was 2/4's notorious "IRONY" or "SARCASM" or whatever he wants to "call" it.

I understand the purpose of this site, and that most here feel passionate about the OOT.  I agree that it would be nice to get a good release, though I don't feel so passionate as most here.  I was simply trying to keep my post on-topic as well as point out that these arguments are getting kind of ridiculous.

On the other hand, if I can get the approval of Frink for my comments, then I know I must have said something funny.  I didn't even start on how dumb the "wall of logic" crap sounds.  But he's got a point that a person gets respect here or anywhere by earning it, not demanding it.  It's just funny that he seems to be disliked by and large, so I don't know what high horse he's riding.
