Hey a blog filled with animated gifs about Chuck.  Huh.

Not filled. I have close to 40 pages of random, 8 pages worth of music, 9 pages of Misfits, 5 pages of Babylon 5, 4 pages of Switched At Birth related things. Oh yeah and several pages of The Walking Dead. While Chuck stuff does take up 20 pages. I do post about other things. Several of which aren't mentioned in this post. FYI my blog's search is crap though. Want to search for something use this url http://twister111.tumblr.com/tagged/ then put what you're searching for after it. You'll get better results. Alternatively just use Google!

SW as a phenomenon is extremely played out. Dogs barking Imperial March in commercials? Don't care. 3D rerelease? Don't care.

 nope. wrong picture.  that text is supposed to say 'i can't believe he's gone'

You had the ot.com meme correct until you tried to correct the text.  Also you are supposed to yell "WRONG PICTURE."

Who cares if it's the WRONG PICTURE?

 

Naaaaaaaaeeeeeeeeiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiooooooouuuuuuuuuuu!!

More of the same, soulless, bluescreen crap, then (fixed)


Greenscreen!

Jings! You're making yourself sound older than Frink with talk like that ;-)

Shouldn't we be on yellowscreen by now?


((((Everyone here probably knows this, but whatever I'm a preach to the choir))))

The decision of using blue, black, or green screen typically depends of what is easiest to separate in post. Film was more adept at separating blues while digital is more adept at separating green. Black is seldom used, but it's typical use is for special effects and the original Tron. Depending on the type of shot and what's in the scene blue is still used in digital productions. Other colours could theoretically be used. They're not though because blue & green are farther removed from a person's skin tone. Making it easier in post.

((((End info everyone here probably already knows))))

The 2006 release was a response to the petitions and politeness. It seems to me that no release at all would have been the slap in the face. Instead, George did something for the fans that he didn't really want to do.

He wasn't willing to perfect his "first draft", but he was willing to hand us the best copy of it that he had - the 1993 laserdisc master.  

The slap in the face was putting it on a DVD labelled "Bonus Disc" and having it's 'special feature' be a trailer for a video game. If it was, at the very least, a real choice to only get the original version you might have a point. He'd have taken a chance of getting completely creamed by the media for releasing a 2006 DVD with only a laserdisc master on it. He didn't though, he shoved the SE 2004 in our faces with that release, proudly presented on disc 1 in anamorphic widescreen. It's a big "Ha ha! I can restore the version you like I just choose not to!!!"

Best analogy I could use for this is this:

What if I bought the Mona Lisa, printed a high quality copy of it, then drew a blimp on the copy presenting that as the Mona Lisa to art galleries. The blimp itself would only change 10% of the picture. I would keep the original in a box in my closet. I say "I'll never let the original Mona Lisa be presented again! I'm achieving my original dream I had as a kid that the Mona Lisa had a blimp in it! I own the rights to the picture! I paid for it!" Mona Lisa SE would be partly my work due to the blimp, so I'de get historians to consider me co-artist of the Mona Lisa itself. While the original rots away in a box in my closet.

That analogy is basically what's happened to the OT.

And twist, I never said you were wrong, I was just disappointed that you only know Martin Sheen from Catch Me if You Can.

Tobar said:


He face palmed because how does anyone not know Martin Sheen by name? You could have at least referenced his role in Mass Effect 2. =P

I accidentally sprained my foot prior to that post. Post itself was just a quick gut reaction post. So what? I didn't automatically remember some random actor's name whilst in pain.

*facepalm*


Why facepalm?! I'm right!!

IMDB Josiah 'Jed' Bartlet character page

IMDB Roger Strong from Catch Me if You Can character page

Same actor. I'm right. Your facepalm is invalid! Though I probably should've thought about his Babylon 5 appearance too.


CP3S said:Twist? Is that a vote for Bartlet?

Nah I just had some offline stuff going on at the time to bother going to IMDB to confirm my feelings of correctness. Were I to properly convey my offline feelings at that time to the internet it'd go something like this:

*mad gif*
*Angry gif*
*Fuck you gif*
*fuck off gif*
*It's too early for this bullshit gif*
*random destruction gif*
*knife gif*

Something like that anyway. This has something to do with it. Still peeved BTW. . .

I move that Adama and Leia be stricken from the ballot.  They are ineligible because they were not born American citizens. 

In that case.

I nominate Dr. Tommy Oliver!!!

He's a Native American Superhero. Has already saved the planet several times. He's got a doctorate, experience in stopping large forces of evil, and early campaign experience running for school president in High School.

Today's project: figure out how to get a fairly alarming quantity of blood out of the fabric exterior of a shoe. Any suggestions?

Depends on what type of blood. For example is it from cow or human? What body part did the blood come from? Is it thick or somewhat liquidy? Were there clots involved? ... Sorry um.... Nevermind me, just um, hey look a snail!!!

Then the "trying to cash in on the franchise" modern reboot down the line called High Definition 1080i video. The title High Definition 1080progressive video will be used for the directors cut. The "progressive" spelled out because having a 'random' "i" somewhere is okay with the masses(according to the studio) . Studio execs will be saying the 'random' "p" will confuse them. By this time the difference between interlaced and progressive scan are no longer selling points. Due to progressive being the standard for such a long time.....
