Ironically, the only time that excuse comes up anymore is when people like you rehash it as a slap against anyone who says they don't like the changes. I've yet to see anyone in the past couple of years complain about Lucas raping their own childhood. You really need to update your arguments, much like Lucas did his films.


What are you talking about?

From Jame's orginal Post:

The worst part of all is that every time this happens, there's always people who will turn around and try to pretend that raping our cultural heritage and our childhood is somehow a GOOD thing.


He's the one who used that euphenism, as archaic as it may be.

"But yeah, I'm sure mellowing out would make you realize that the Lord of the Rings movies, especially the first one, are great movies, that the new Zelda games have very little sucking (Except Minish Cap and it's awesome Gust Jar. Gotta love the Gust Jar.)"

LOL. I hope that statement makes sense in your own mind. Apparently, anyone who disagrees with your opinion is too blinded by digust and anger to see things your way? Maybe if you got out more, you'd see how ridiculous that assertion is.


He stated a strangely unshared opinion as fact. I just made the point that because from his post James is obvioulsy disgusted by the unfaithful ness of Lord of the Rings and the mysterious lack of fun he found in all but the two of the worst Zelda games. (I enjoy LoZ and AoL, but the fact remains they are archaicly outdated by today's standards)... I figured that mellowing out would make some of his hate for the direction these franchises took go away.
