There’s a very close to zero percent chance we’ll ever see an alternate cut of RO.

Maybe not official, but there will be a rayedit shortly after the BD release. Nothing major, just chopping out a few lines of dialog and the super dumb pignose/assmouth cameo. (and maybe using a few shots from the trailers?)

I still can’t believe there are now 4 Star Wars films that I like. I know a bunch of ya liked TFA, so there’s been over a year for you to get used to that feeling, but it’s still a shocker for me!

I’m still waiting for a third.

I thought the 12 year conceit added an almost indescribable sense of reality in its passage of time. Yeah, I know, how is it indescribable if that fact is plainly obvious? Well I just felt watching it that there was something really profound and affecting about seeing the story of someone’s life play out in that way beyond just the simple fact of it. I wish I could explain it better, but, as I said, it’s kinda indescribable. More something experienced.

Yeah, it was pretty interesting.

Also, re: coffee’s point, it’s not like it was a documentary where they were filming constantly. More like they’d get together once a year to film scenes.

Right, this is what I was trying to say.

Did you know it took 12 years to make?

Yes. I actually think that that was one of Red Letter Media’s least funny and most cringe-worthy memes.

EDIT: Just to be clear, I love RLM, but they have a large subset of their fanbase that will parrot every single thing that they say as though it is 100% fact. It isn’t RLM’s fault, but it’s something that I can’t stand about its fanbase.

Since this simple request of mine has obviously fallen on deaf ears is there anyone else that would like to criticize any part of my person they feel deserve it? If we’re going to discuss and parade one person’s flaws (failings or “foibles”) should we not give everyone an equal chance? I actually think we should have a thread where everyone’s flaws (failings or “foibles”) can be put out for all to see and comment on. A leveling of the playing field, so to speak.

Since this is an inclusive site this shouldn’t be a problem for anyone, right?

Yeah, actually if someone posted a thread that involved complaining about how awful each person on the forum is, most of us would probably be irritated. You posted something that slammed other members of the forum for no reason and then demanded that nobody respond to you.

STOP TWISTING MY WORDS, PLZ? This is part of the reason I had an issue. Some of us do get very irritated when folks complain about how awful we are but that hasn’t stopped them from doing it and it hasn’t gotten complaints from others about it until one of those someone’s got pissed off enough to lose his cool about it.

This is another problem. When people take what you say at face value, you can’t say that we’re all twisting your words.

You can’t have it both ways, either it’s cool to do or it’s not, picking and choosing which to complain about isn’t reasonable grounds for you to complain about me losing my cool over it.

Ok, it’s cool to do then. I don’t even know what this is all about at this point.

I hate the way that the Planned Parenthood official claimed that you can’t “target women” and get away with it even though one of the people charged is a woman.

What does that matter? If a woman bombs an abortion clinic, she isn’t targeting women? Only men can target women?

That’s a false equivalence. I’m talking about the way pro-abortion advocates frame the issue as you being either for abortion (and for women), or against abortion (and against women). I doubt that the woman arrested for the undercover filming of Planned Parenthood thinks she’s against women. She would say that she is in favor of the unborn babies aborted at Planned Parenthood, which would be approximately 50% female. That’s how she, and other antiabortion activists see the issue. At most, you can say that they’re against women that get abortions.

I also don’t think that their investigation was a legitimate violation of privacy.

Maybe, maybe not, but it was certainly against the law.

I know it was, but it doesn’t look like it was an invasion of privacy or something that actually harmed anybody so it shouldn’t be framed that way.

I have no idea what the hell started the latest drama, but it had better end now. The Emperor is not as forgiving as I am.

I was blowing off steam that built up. I said as much. This was not a Vs. (no-one should be starting rumors that it is)

This is ridiculous. I said that, and it wasn’t a rumor; it was an observation. Don’t make obvious slams against people and then claim that we all misinterpreted what it clearly was.
