May have been the losing side. Still not convinced it was the wrong one.

Hey Adam, might I make a small suggestion? If you're going to try and convince a bunch of people who like something that they shouldn't, you might want to try proper spelling and grammar. It tends to make a person more credible. Not that we'd listen anyways, but for future reference you might want to try it ~Caite
Quote: Is there anything on this planet more annoying and loathsome than a spelling bitch? You all know them. You're out on a message board and you're arguing with some dumb fuck that thinks gun sales help feed orphans and then you say something like "Tanks for proving my point..." and they shoot back with "LOL!! *grin* Tanks? I thought you said guns were bad and now you like TANKS?!! LOL!!!!" Jizz ass! I'm sorry but when someone retorts with nothing but a shot at your spelling than I can only make the simple assumption that they have conceded and see absolutely no fault in the actual arguments that are being presented. I mean big fucking deal! You're not doing me a great service by showing me the light. Oh my fucking God! There are people with bad spelling on the Internet?! Thanks for the amazing service! Tearing some guy a new asshole because he accidentally wrote "Your in big trouble now" You're not better than anyone for spotting that. Why most of the time I catch many spelling mistakes when I read over my own stuff just because I don't stop to reread. Who's the loser? The guy who writes something and gets it over with or the guy who spends all his time double and triple chelling not only their own stuff but going through someone else's stuff with a fine toothed comb looking for flaws in spelling, and therefore faults in their own worth, so often that they never get anything said. You want me to use a fucking spell cheller? What so I can chell shit I'm posting on a message board? Can you understand what I'm trying to say when it comes out "Looking fro trouble" because if you genuinely can't than the bigger moron here isn't the one who didn't catch the typo but rather the one who can't wrap his mind around this brain racking puzzle. If you really thought I was talking about some black guy's hair then maybe you should get off the Internet before you wind up thinking that your friend "has a stomach ache because he drank 2 litres of cock". So yeah there are a lot of people out there. Some are kids that are what, 8 years old? I remember when I was 8 years old and I played with a typewriter. It took me about an hour to hammer out a sentence. So if someone needs to save time by saying "how r u?" Then maybe they really type that slow. (or maybe they think it sounds 7331 and need to be ass raped) And if someone writes at a 3rd grade level because they're in the God damned 3rd grade then let's cut them a little slack, okay? I get enough of this shit in school. I mean I'd always do these reports where I'd go all out and do all this crazy fucking research only to have my teacher totally tank my paper and riddle it with red ink because, despite the fact that it was really a great report, I couldn't really nail my "participe passé" stuff so my report gets ass raped. If it's not French class I don't see why spelling should even have any bearing on my grade. I guess the same goes for English but I've never had an English paper graded for a class that wasn't specially "English" so you'll excuse me for not sympathizing. Whatever. Fuck those teachers! You know maybe I don't spell so good. Maybe I didn't enjoy the benefits of an all English education like a lot of you. Maybe I don't know that "epitome" and "epidemy" are homonyms with totally different meanings. English is a very non phonetic and confusing language. I mean who am I, D'Nerd? Maybe I really really thought that it was "comming" for a long time. In fact I still think that movie theatres are all participating in some massive conspiracy to trick us all into thinking it's been "coming" all along when it hasn't and from time to time I just get this glimpse of a world which makes more sense. And you know there are a lot people who don't speak English all that well because... you know we're not alone on this planet. So some mix up words and shit. Sure it's funny and all but that's no reason to make fun of someone. Spelling and grammar are far from being a perfect measure of intelligence. When someone's well spoken it by no means indicates that they're more intelligent. When someone tries to make someone feel worse about themselves for a spelling mistake there's really no doubt that they're being an asshole though. I'd like to conclude with a small tip for all you spelling bitches. If you really can't help it. If you really can't get over yourself. If you really have to bitch someone out for a typo or grammatical oversight just make sure you don't make one yourself because that's just beyond retardation. I mean... in response to someone referring to Sailor Moon's real name as "Sarina"... and I quote: *Serena If you're gonna use a dub name, spell it rite So now I'm the spelling bitch. I'm such a fucking hypocrite. If anyone needs me I'll be drowning in my own tears eating bon bons and watching the Family Channel. * Note: The term "bitch" in "Spelling Bitches" is not meant to be derogatory towards women and refers to the act of "bitching" which is the nagging type thing that happens to be often performed by women.

Maybe you can band together and try to get your crap show that everyone hates back on the air. Nothing like wasting a lot of time to keep a geek busy. People whine and bitch about "good shows getting canned". Well you know what? Your show sucks. Firefly licks cotton balls. Birds of Prey is inexcusably bad. No one watches your shows because they are no good. WB will not pick up Firefly. UPN will not pick up either. These shows are not good and they failed because often the weeding process of canceling new shows that do poorly really works. I reiterate. Shut up. Sincerely, aDam

Quote:Originally posted by aDam: Universal will not spend 50 million on a Firefly movie. They wouldn't spend that much on a movie they don't give a general release, sure. That doesn't mean they'll give Firefly a general release because they won't pour that much money into it. I have always made a promise to drink an entire bottle of salad dressing if this movie gets a general release. By that I mean most theatres like over 90% of the movies that are in the top 10 grossing movies of any given week. I have never had any problem admitting I was wrong when I was wrong. I'm not wrong though. I'm not an idiot. If I'm wrong I'll eat my words and more and I am confident in saying this because I won't be. Luckily this will all be proven sooner or later. See you next year.

Quote:Originally posted by Badhras: I just saw the movie. I'm not a fan. I didn't come away mesmerized. I was interested in finding out why people like/dislike the series. It's unfortunate that The Troll can say very little that is enlightening about why the series sucks. On a scale of 5 stars (with 5 being good), I can only give the movie a 3. The directing of the first 10 minutes was pretty good. The firefly/serenity universe seems well developed. Language and cultural ambience helps to distinguish the future of spacefaring humans from some of the more typical TV sci-fi universes. I liked the Operative as the antagonist. He seems to sum up the Alliance well - reasonable, civil, calculating, efficient, and in pursuit of an idealized utopia. The acting and character development were tolerable. Each actor had a few good moments, but it was somewhat bland otherwise. The captain was enjoyable, but his conflicted self seemed lacking. The doctor also had a lot of good potential that got wasted. For somebody who had built a network of contacts, and is obviously very smart, brave, and resourceful - he came across as excess baggage, with little to contribute, no worthwhile knowledge, and no real plan. The part that really annoyed me was when the doctor got shot. A few moments before the shooting, the sister was a crying an ocean. For a person with psychotic tendencies and an obvious love for her brother, her transition into psycho-fighter was too calculated and calm. That gunshot should have snapped her... really hard, really abruptly. Obviously, fans have had time to bond with the characters. My dissatisfaction is probably no different than why I liked Lord of the Rings movies and why my dad thought it was rather boring and apparently fell asleep during the first 2 movies. To each his own, I suppose. As it is, Serenity is not good enough to convince me to invest in watching the series. Like Babylon 5, it has distinctions to pique some interest, but it feels like you need to be a devoted sci-fi geek to enjoy it. For it to really rise above 3 stars, it would need better acting and a better script to bring out the wealth of character development hidden in the series. I might be shallow in this regard, but oh well. I enjoyed Star Wars without the benefit of a TV series and I liked Star Trek, despite hating most of the different TV incarnations. So, congratulations on getting your movie. If a Serenity sequel shows up, I hope it turns out to be a bit better. p.s. I'm eagerly waiting for other geeky movies: Halo and AeonFlux.

Quote:Originally posted by aDam: Okay! So..... okay I lost. The movie was a wide release and somewhat of a success. I swore I'd drink some salad dressing and I did just that. I would have come back and replied sooner but I couldn't get to the board for a while after the movie came out for whatever reason. Anyway I documented the event with a little video. Enjoy: So yeah now that that's out of the way let me deal with a few more of you idiots: Quote:Let's see. The latest Star Wars movies sucked.

Debating "shine" is like debating quality. You can bitch all you want but the only thing that talks is numbers. Serenitiy's box office pull doesn't even compare to how Episode III, in all it's faults, did. Quote:I sincerely hope you love salad dressing dear because you will be consuming mass quantities of the stuff. I said a bottle. 250ml is hardly "mass quantities". It just gave me about an hour of a feeling like I just threw up. Quote:Have you fulfilled your promise? Is there a video?

Quote:Episode 3 is Star Wars. A huge franchise with a huge budget. It's on everything from toys to cups to happy meals. The movie could have been complete and utter crap (I found it amusing) and it still would've been a box office hit.
Quote:Funny thing about that last part...you where 25 when you came here lol. I am personally amazed that you've remembered to keep coming back for two...three straight years. Interesting bit of dedication, impressive for a troll.
Quote:Although it might have been easier if you just googled Serenity movie.
Quote: Reminds me, did you ever see it? The DVD sales topped 2 million awhile ago, you know. I admit, wasn't as good as the series, but it was still a kick ass movie in my opinion, and a satisfying ending...or continuation of this great franchise.
