Herd mentality

Posted by: IAM_rah on Dec 29, 09:25 in response to Baron_Darcon's post Well I wanted to short it since it was such a lazy...

Great post!! I know 5 people in my circle that REFUSE to watch Force Awakens because they "know it sucks". They have ritually gone to every Tolkien movie regardless of it's obvious exploitation but are unable to see the irony of rufusing to see Star Wars 'becuse of der hiipe". The irony is so true.. so true

Forgot to ask: for the few folks that swore they were going to short STAR7 because they saw empty seats in theaters: How's that working out? goodvibe61 Dec 29, 01:27

He'll blame it on the "Chimpmucks" :D {nm} hyperzeitgeist Dec 29, 01:39

9.2 Million Shares SHORT on (STAR7). More than just a Couple of Traders. Captain Obvious Dec 29, 04:57

He was talking specifically about the people that were trying to talk STAR7 down. Besides most of the remaining... hyperzeitgeist Dec 29, 05:27

How do you know that (your 2nd Statement). {nm} Captain Obvious Dec 29, 05:32

For someone with your moniker you certainly ask some dumb questions! {nm} hyperzeitgeist Dec 29, 05:45

You didn't Answer the Question - How do you Know that. Just Wild Speculation, perhaps. {nm} Captain Obvious Dec 29, 05:49

Not that wild. At this point, any active player who knows how to play would either be out of the stock or holding long for delist. ryancoke2 Dec 29, 05:51

See - you just Listed a 3rd Option. 4th Option - Hoping for a Decline (as at least one Trader has Suggested). {nm} Captain Obvious Dec 29, 05:55

Now you're just trolling so I will go with my initial instinct and just ignore you. {nm} hyperzeitgeist Dec 29, 06:06

Hoping for a decline? lol...it's the week between Christmas and NYE. It's going to post $30M every day this week. {nm} ryancoke2 Dec 29, 06:16

Captain Obvious (AKA Roto) plays a negative port (in addition to multiple others...), and is totally trolling you guys. {nm} BSmurf Dec 29, 06:19

+1 {nm} hyperzeitgeist Dec 29, 06:37

FACT: You don't Know Who is Holding (STAR7) SHORT & You don't Know Why they are. {nm} Captain Obvious Dec 29, 22:24

OK, let me ask you a question: Why would anyone continue to short STAR7 in the near certainty that they will... hyperzeitgeist Dec 29, 05:53

Perhaps they just loathe star wars? kidding {nm} Dorfman Dec 29, 06:37

Well I wanted to short it since it was such a lazy written movie with more holes then a block of swiss cheese. but didn't since too much.... Baron_Darcon Dec 29, 05:59

One down, now we just need to hear from Mike255...not! {nm} hyperzeitgeist Dec 29, 06:13

Feeding Trolls will only bring regret. {nm} DiNar0 Dec 29, 10:49

People said the same thing about Avatar...you can't please everyone, but you can please enough. {nm} RoBoGuru Dec 29, 06:31

Personally I love Avatar but I've never been able to sit through a Star Wars movie. {nm} hyperzeitgeist Dec 29, 06:39

Did you start with the prequels? Then I don't blame you. {nm} RamsFan2004 Dec 29, 06:46

Now you mention it, the only one I saw in a movie theater was 'Revenge of the Sith', which my (then) 8 year-old hyperzeitgeist Dec 29, 07:33

Maybe watch A New Hope and Empire Strikes Back (back-to-back). I think you'll appreciate Star Wars a little more. {nm} RamsFan2004 Dec 29, 09:02

Like I said. I've tried them and found them to be trite and juvenile. Back-to-back Star Wars movies? I'd rather poke my eyes out. {nm} hyper Dec 29, 09:07

If you poke your eyes out for this reason, please be sure to video it. People would pay to watch that. {nm} DTshakes Dec 29, 09:26

Diff'rent strokes I guess {nm} RamsFan2004 Dec 29, 10:39

Herd mentality IAM_rah Dec 29, 09:25

By the way I switch long Star Wars. Change my mind. {nm} mike255 Dec 29, 07:53

phew - nm CoffinDancr Dec 29, 10:04
