How my decision to resume ignoring him again anything but a good thing is beyond me.
“I don’t understand” - Anakin Skywalker
If anything, you should stay sober so that the 4 years of debt will be worth it.
Wasn’t “Frink vs. Fo” a banable offense?
Yeah, I don’t get the point of rating films. Just say whether you liked it or disliked it and why. The idea of a grading scale for art always baffled me. How can you rate movies like Citizen Cane and Animal House on the same scale? They’re totally different.
I was distracted by Citizen Cane so I missed the rest. What’s wrong with trying to quantify how much you liked or disliked something? I could say I liked ANH and ROTJ but that doesn’t mean I enjoy one way more than the other.
It would probably be clear based on what you say about your feelings towards each movie which one you liked better.
In response to canofhumdingers, I find Jedi almost unwatchable now.
Bladerunner is a great example of a film being greatly improved by reedits.

This is ridiculous.
Yeah, no one’s threatening or harassing you. Grow up and take this out of the 4K thread.
Valeris in Star Trek VI was supposed to be Saavik, but they decided against it at the last minute.
That would have been a more shocking betrayal.
That was Roddenberry’s problem with it. Kim Cattrall also refused to be another recast of Saavik.

Just for curiosity’s sake, what is you guys’ opinion of Search for Spock? I personally think it’s the most underrated Trek film, and one of the best in the series.
Also, I think it’s pretty clear DE is on the same page as you there.
I don’t. He was one of two instigators which prompted my post.
Are you referring to this?
I don’t know, I’d probably rather watch Home Alone 2 than TFA.
Is your taste in film that poor?
If so, I’d like to make it clear that I didn’t know MFM was being serious with that statement; I thought he was making fun of me. So I figured I’d indirectly insult myself – resort to self-deprecating humour in a roundabout manner – as a way of showing there were no hard feelings.
No hard feelings at all. I was totally serious.
I never said that Home Alone 2 was good, but it is a cute enough movie. TFA made me tired and annoyed, and no, I didn’t think it was good, or even all that entertaining. When two movies that I don’t think are good go head to head, I tend to prefer the one that is easier to sit through.
Yeah so I don’t see what you’re getting at with the GIF then.
Someone accused me of violating rule 6 when I originally posted the GIF back on 02/14. I was refuting that accusation.
See the politics thread.
Also, it’s just a forum. Sometimes I think you need to remember that.
*sigh*
Hey, he’s got a point. There’s a material world out there.
EDIT: And by the way, I really have no idea what you’re talking about with the moderation stuff. Just report things that need to be reported.

I don’t really know or care. Good riddance.
I don’t miss him at all. I never knew what he was saying and then he started being awful and mean-spirited.
I don’t care about the colors. There is no truly 100% theatrical color palette for most films anyway. As long as they aren’t unnatural, I’m fine.
I’m just going to say blu-rays for all of them unless you want the extended versions of TMP and UC.
Can someone tell me what is so horrible about the bluray image? I know that it isn’t good, but how is it worse than the DVDs?
Sometimes they delete the files and it has to be recreated from scratch. I believe that this is Deep Space Nine’s problem right now.
IIRC someone from the effects team stated most if not all the files still existed, even put out a few sample renders which were beautiful.
That’s good to know. The effects work on that show was very well done. I feel like DS9’s vfx were more quality over quantity whereas a show like Babylon 5 had to take the opposite approach.
I think that those effects have been deleted or lost since those samples were made.
I wonder how effectively the existing effects shots could be upscaled, if it would be too jarring intercut with hd re-scans of the live-action footage.
The cgi for Firefly was only 480p IIRC. I wonder how it looks on blu-ray, haven’t rewatched any of that show since my friend let me borrow the dvd more than a decade ago.
They would look pretty bad. They’re already a little jarring on the DVDs.

I don’t recall ever being terribly bothered by LuckyGungan2001 posts.
