as for kate lucas, I asked on another thread what exactly her role is.  I don't have twitter so I don't know if there is a way to confirm if this tweet actually was from her.  and if it was, she just makes a fool out of herself as far as Im concerned. 
 


I just checked the official Star Wars twitter. They retweeted the following tweets of hers.

Also, I just read about the Twitter debacle with Katie Lucas. I won't hold a single word against her, because anyone who would take their grievances to her is an asshole to begin with. If people came on my Facebook talking shit about my old man, I'd treat them like dirt too.


On the flip side of the same coin, wasn't she also posting tweets that could be interpreted as baiting angry fanboys?


The thing about Katie Lucas' twitter is that she seems to want to use it for both promoting Lucasfilm and, Star Wars. Yet also have the freedom of a personal account where she can pretend to be an anon and, just backlash against people.

Just FYI-- putting CGI in a movie, adding a line, or making an ewok blink does not qualify as sexual abuse, and referring to it as such

http://twitter.com/#!/KRLgrrl/status/116588318640177152
makes you a heartless bastard. I dare you to look a victim of sexual abuse in the eye and say that George Lucas raped your childhood.

http://twitter.com/#!/KRLgrrl/status/116588607095046146
Hate the movies, be mad about them, cry about them-but don't equate them with being sexually violated,

http://twitter.com/#!/KRLgrrl/status/116588742332006402
because thats not even in the realm of what happened to you. Its not cute, its not 'new' anymore, it doesn't make you look more clever

http://twitter.com/#!/KRLgrrl/status/116588901283540992
it makes you look STUPID. USE THE FUCKING DICTIONARY. RAPE IS NOT WHAT A MOVIE DID TO YOUR CHILDHOOD. End of story.

@trooperchick use the common sense your parents gave you. there is a difference between sexual abuse and changes to a movie.

@KRLgrrl Apparently you don't understand what a "figure of speech" is. Let me help you out.

http://twitter.com/#!/McSquiggins/status/116618315828441089
@KRLgrrl In the phrase, "George Lucas' daughter seems like a hypocritical, insufferable cunt", the word "cunt" is a figure of speech.

http://twitter.com/#!/McSquiggins/status/116618439300358145
@KRLgrrl I don't actually think you're a walking, typing vagina. See how that works?


http://twitter.com/#!/KRLgrrl/status/116619274990260226
@McSquiggins oh that was helpful. but i actually do think you're a talentless prick.


http://twitter.com/#!/McSquiggins/status/116619724070207488
@KRLgrrl Talentless? Probably. But not all of us can ride our father's coattails to fame and fortune.

Do we have any predictions for this season of Clone Wars?


KRLgrrl tweeted:

http://twitter.com/#!/KRLgrrl/status/114823821151830016
Prediction: It's going to be awesome.

http://twitter.com/#!/KRLgrrl/status/114824254968709121
And i can tell you this, it IS going to be awesome! More than awesome! One of my favorite seasons to date #spoileralert

http://twitter.com/#!/KRLgrrl/status/114824580480253953
I have four episodes this season that will be airing later in the season! I'm so excited for you guys to see them!



-------------

Yes what McSquiggins posted is completely unacceptable. However, she is the one that decided to not only bait things with obvious hot topic tweets. She also decided to escalate things referring to him as a "talentless prick" and, taking a stab at him for his follower count. Recently, I lost about 10 followers when, I was mainly just trying to friendly communicate with my followers. It doesn't make one a "talentless prick" for having a low follower count any more then her 2,082 followers automatically make her talented. While I don't begrudge her using her account to promote her work. It does make it more representative of what LFL allows for public representation. If it weren't for the fact that her dad is the boss she'd probably be fired by now. Regardless of public opinion escalating things and, defending her father's work are two different things. While I do feel sad that people decide to trash talk George Lucas via her accounts mentions. She's not faultless in this either.

Apparently twister has a new obsession.

Nah, there's not nearly enough variety in gifs for Memento for it to be my new board posting "thing". I know, I went to the bottom of the Memento tag on tumblr... twice. Meanwhile, I know of a single blog with literally over 250 pages of Chuck related pics and, gifs. That's just one blog. There's tons of Chucksters creating new Chuck and, Chuck related animated gifs right now! Ditto for other fandoms like Castle(SO GLAD THAT I SAW "RISE"!!! ALSO FUCK YOU WALL!!! FUCK YOU!!!!). Though I am annoyed that this one Memento gif I couldn't re-find because, tumblr did that "oh we'll let you see it this time but, next search time it'll be gone!!!" Thing it sometimes does. That's why I went through the tag twice. I had to close the tab the first time since I had about 30 tabs open at one time... Anyway,...

The Longest Quote String On The 'Net
Time

Pennsylvania Jones said:


You see, in my introduction thread on the Thorn Valley Forums, I unintentionally made a pretty long quote string.  After someone commented on it, I turned it into a joke by prolonging it.  He then wondered what the longest quote string on the internet was.  I gave a link to a pretty long quote string in the Personal Canon thread on this forum, but it also got me to thinking...  Why not start a thread about it?  I couldn't find anything on Google about the world record for the longest quote string ever, but if there is such a thing, why not try to break it?

The goal is to make each post as long as possible, and that there be as many of them as possible.  That way, not only will it be the longest quote string on the internet, it'll have the longest quotes on the 'net, too.  Who's ready?

Alright, stop that, stop that. It's silly. It's really silly. It started with a nice picture about a very very very very tall building and a white rabbit, but it's gotten far too silly. I think the readers are tired of scrolling on their mouse wheels to skip this picture. Now, I for one love little rabbits, especially white ones, cause they're cute little furry creatures, although I've heard some of them can be quite vicious indeed... But skyscrapers get really annoying really fast, and this particular picture has long lost its novelty.

So, I would advise everyone to get back to posting Random Pictures, this is the Random Pictures thread, not the "Skyscraper and bunny" thread, otherwise I'll have to ask the thread to be closed.

...... Get on with it!

I really liked the opening of AOTC (even if it broke the pan down rule).


The Naboo ships descending into the foggy Coruscant spirescape felt very 'Star Warsy' in a way that hardly anything in TPM did.


It worked right until Captain Eyepatch opened his big mouth.

 


Hm, perhaps the prequels should've been done like this, this, or this instead?


Anyways, on-topic...


MMPR: The Movie actually has a solid plot with clear motivations for the villian. Very few plot holes actually exist when you pay attention to the movie itself. It essentially starts with a celebration for an upcoming comet. The rangers then start partying because they don't seem to have much else to do. Then Zordon calls them to discuss Ivan. Ivan gets released uses Tengas to distract them so he can destroy their power source. Along with killing Zordon for locking him up. He almost kills Zordon. The rangers use remaining power to teleport to the planet with the great power. Ivan then gets to work brainwashing the adults of the city into slaves. They fight the guards to the great power. They get Zords from the great power use that to defeat Ivan and, save their mentor. They become Gods with the power over life and, death. It's basically a reboot self contained movie. 


A lot of the times I've read/viewed reviews of the movie they either intentionally screw up the chronology of the movie or, they try to criticize it in continuity with the tv show. Considering it's intended as a reboot movie the tv show continuity comparison is just fail on the reviewer's part. It goes without saying that the former is just trying to make something seem worse then it is. Plus, I often see the "parents" complaint that they're not there. While it is odd they're not there when their kids are skydiving for an event. Neglectful parents are hardly a plot flaw. Especially later on as it's easy to assume they're amongst the brainwashed adults.



(Also FYI: the clips I chose in my list up there are just Star Trek and, Switched At Birth related...)
