Thanks a lot! Since we have no money, we're going to celebrate by spending the day looking for jobs! Yeah, I'm just a romantic slob.

And, wow, I never thought about that! For some reason, I've never visited the Long Bridge Club. Maybe I should pop on over there at some point.

EDIT: P.S. You'd like that, wouldn't you? ^_~ It's not your birthday, is it? I'm not Santa Claus, am I? Therefore, I will do what I must.

EDIT 2: P.P.S. As long as we keep back and forthing over the ESB Script Game, there's no way I can diminish your lead any further, is there?

I think that creating a movie is like raising a child. You spend your allotted amount of time creating and shaping it, doing the best you can, working around the problems, in order to release the best product you are able to come out with. At that point, when you release the film, you have to let go of it, and trust that your hard work all this time is enough to let the film flourish on its own. George doesn't seem content with that. Although the child has shown itself numerous times to be more than capable of living on its own, George keeps dragging it back to the nest for a few more crash sessions in "parenting."

As for being a "troll"... if any of you frequent the Basher Santuary over at TFN.... you may have seen me....


Do you even read the posts that surround your own? I have not noticed a single reply that has anybody's "panties all in a bunch" because of your donate the discs to charity idea. It's your volatile and rude manner that's getting on people's nerves. To steal cliches, you might find that you'll attract a lot more flies with honey rather than vinegar, so if you actually have any intelligent ideas to share with us in the future, keep that in mind.

Yeah, that's the way I will want to do it, too, but when we get into things like sword slashing and gun shooting, I'll want to use the Wiimote with my left, but I've never had any experience using an analog stick in my right hand. You get where I'm going?

You have a decent idea about donating to charity, but I'd tend to agree more with what THX said. I'd rather buy two sets and donate one of the original movies to children.


So give GL, a guy most folks in here dislike.... more money. The hypocracy is amazing.

Complain that GL sucks too much money out of the fans.... "he makes us buy....etc" but then turn around and give him twice as much money all so that you can mail your old set to him... and that way, the next time fans start a petition to give to LFL, they'll remember when those same "fans" from the biggest petition of all, got what they wanted and then turned around acted like babies.

Smooth move.


First of all, I went out of my way to admit that your idea had some merit to it. Second of all, in case you hadn't noticed, our "plan" is not to boycott Lucas. Whether his attitude is there or not, he is technically giving us what we want, and we want the originals to be popular, so, yeah, we will be shelling our money out. I'm not sure how buying these DVDs is going to prove that we're acting like babies. Aren't we doing exactly what he wants us to do? Can you think of a better way that we can help George out with his little science experiment over which version is preferred?

And third, and most importantly, you're a dick! You call us hypocritical, yet you're the one here consistently whining, which is what you're complaining that we're doing. Why the hell are you here in the first place? What are you trying to prove? I'd love to know. And if you choose to respond, you'd better keep a civil tongue, you prat. If you've actually come with some purpose and a legitimate opinion, then I will be forced to respect it. But if you're just here to whine and complain, like you seem to think is all we do, then allow me to show you the door!

And make sure to render them unusable before sending them in, or they'd just get resold probably. A scratch line across the disc will do the trick, as will a sharpie. I'm sure there are better methods, like cutting them halfway down with scissors.

And stop registering here for the sole purpose of raining on our parade. People who just joined after the announcement of the OOT release with ten or less posts usually do. Talk about complaining! Sheesh!


Sorry to double post, but I like Hal's post. There have been so many new users since the historic May 3rd announcement, and most of them are only here to bitch at us about it for some reason.
