Yes. Like when you see anime you see crap and that is what you get when you watch it.

Stop demonizing an entire medium of art.

Anime is not art.

Yes, it is:

art |ärt|

noun

1 the expression or application of human creative skill and imagination, typically in a visual form such as painting or sculpture, producing works to be appreciated primarily for their beauty or emotional power: the art of the Renaissance | great art is concerned with moral imperfections | she studied art in Paris.
• works produced by human creative skill and imagination: his collection of modern art | an exhibition of Mexican art | [as modifier] : an art critic.
• creative activity resulting in the production of paintings, drawings, or sculpture: she’s good at art.

Anime doesn’t count.

We don’t make exclusions of things from well-agreed upon non-controversial definitions because we don’t like them.

I think you should recheck that definition you posted.

You don’t understand the definition.

When it stops being utter shit, I’ll be happy to.

Saying that all anime films are utter shit is like saying that all computer animated films are utter shit.

Not really, I’ve seen some good CGI films.

I’m taking a principle stance here. An entire medium of art cannot be bad. Anime is a medium. Computer animated films is a medium. Therefore they cannot all be utter shit.

Did you forget to copy that last line?

That is not in any dictionary. Things don’t work that way. Stop being dishonest to yourself and realize that your hatred of a medium is harmful.

The space battle at the end does feel like old school Star Wars though.

You mean the part where the 5 year old takes out an entire armada of ships with his nifty spinning trick? It’s a juvenile film that would be tolerable as a juvenile film without Jar Jar and the Gungans. Those guys just make it entirely unwatchable.

Gonna have to agree with you here. The lightsaber battle was the best thing of this part—it is pretty nifty.

And even that is shit

I disagree.

PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT THAT EVERYONE NEEDS TO READ TO NOT BE MISGUIDED AND MAKE UNTRUE AND SLANDEROUS STATEMENTS ABOUT ME

I am going to be 100% clear with this: The comments I am making about Jetrell Fo are not just to concur with Frink. That line of reasoning makes no sense to me, though that’s obviously because I know my motives. Jetrell’s actions could have been directed towards anyone else, or anything else, and I would probably have said the same things.

That is all.

In all other respects though, TPM is superior to the other two prequels imo.

Agreed.

April Fools day does not justify striking a match and attempting to throw it into a forest. Somehow I don’t think any good could come out of this thread. For all I know, somebody might take the premise of this thread seriously and… I don’t want to finish that sentence.

Still, someone should delete this thread, hmm?

This is what he’s talking about.

I wondered if someone would use a CGI Artoo shot by mistake.

I hope Frank Oz enjoys a Yoda life span, but I fear an obituary would use CGI Yoda and footage of his Muppet characters with their current performers.

I think ROTJ Yoda ghost will be the most popular SW image used in that event, hopefully with Hayden cropped out.

Hopefully Hayden will have been forgotten by then.

Which brings me to this: How would we react in the event of a prequel actor dying?

Hey Guys, BrightestDayFan2814 Here, I Have A Very Bad News, Team Negative1 Got Banned From OriginalTrilogy.com,

Looks like you win the distinction of “troll bump”. LOL

Looks like you win the distinction of “doesn’t know what a bump is.” LOL

Looks like you need to “fuck off”. LOL

A bump is typically when you post in a thread that’s old.

This thread was created yesterday.

You said six months … it happened sooner. I was having some fun. Do you have some issue with that?

Hopefully this should clarify things.
