Hilarious that you target TLJ as some sort of disaster, as if the original trilogy is a work of art

Posted by: numbersix_99 on Mar 18, 02:48 in response to Baron_Darcon2017's post Snob your have the confirmation bias and cognitive...

The original trilogy is hokey with some awful characters and dialogue. But they're fun and came at a time when we were all young.

At least TLJ did interesting things with the characters, particularly with Luke which was the best part of the film and the new trilogy so far, and far better than TFA's tired retreading. If anything, the negative aspects of TLJ's performance (although your "fact" points miss out so much context, such as how China's market operates) may reflect the lingering feeling that TFA wasn't as good as expected.

And to defend Movie snob, he's a conservative and he has always been respectful to disagreements

Anyone following the SW The Last Jedi Blu-ray, 4k, DVD releasing? On Blu-ray.com Last Jedi is not ranked under preorders... Baron_Darcon2017 Mar 17, 15:02

That's because pre-orders aren't available on Amazon, no Disney titles are IIRC. Some kind of dispute between the two. {nm} -JPV- Mar 17, 15:21

However, after the release date, they'll be available to purchase. {nm} -JPV- Mar 17, 15:22

This has happened in the past, I believe they (Amazon) did the same to Warner a couple years ago. {nm} -JPV- Mar 17, 15:24

its standard with Disney titles and has been for awhile. There's only one place where DVD/BD sales are tracked accurately - videoscan Moviesnob Mar 17, 15:29

Did know stuckupsnob, I use thenumber.com and bluray for an idea. Just have to wait another month until on thenumber.com for validity. {nm} Baron_Darcon2017 Mar 17, 15:57

the-numbers.com are just estimates and they are not accurate so you'll have to find something else to cling your racism to! Moviesnob Mar 17, 16:16

Ah racism charge.... used when leftists loses arguments... The.numbers..com will be close enough to prove TLK is worst selling SW title. {nm} Baron_Darcon2017 Mar 17, 17:08

but you won't know that b/c you don't have access to the actual information. Thats the problem with being both stupid and having Moviesnob Mar 17, 17:30

Damn. {nm} ShawnMR Mar 17, 17:53

First off, how is not liking SW TLK racist???? Second, I asked why it wasn't ranked, didn't see likely it wasn't ranked Baron_Darcon2017 Mar 17, 18:29

lol Since you used a pejorative first...only fair MS identifies you as a racist. So, since you were first...I guess you really lost the Catzan Mar 18, 00:08

Snob often attacks people with differing points of view and attributes it to the worst possible motivations. Trying to deligitimizing any. Baron_Darcon2017 Mar 18, 00:47

Conservative nerd arguments are the most tedious, boring arguments in all the land. {nm} Bronzey Mar 18, 07:08

Snob your have the confirmation bias and cognitive dissonance. Also YOU'RE the racist. In your world a director, or actor can't stand on... Baron_Darcon2017 Mar 18, 00:17

I agree TFA was a retread I give it 3.5/10. TLJ ruined Luke's legacy from the EU. Failed in China for many reasons, popup video blurbs .. Baron_Darcon2017 Mar 18, 21:52

and it wouldn't matter if moviesnob was conservative or not. He is always respectful of other posters and uses actual data, research and CSBD Mar 19, 13:22

why do we have to put up with this **** constantly on the board again? {nm} slipping jimmy Mar 18, 08:49

It's ridiculous. {nm} CSBD Mar 18, 09:43

Agreed. This post might get deleted, but I have to say this... STONYRN Mar 18, 11:52

Ruin Johnson and Kathleen Kennedy openly talk about the feminist agenda for SW, the female only SW story group, the force is female.. Baron_Darcon2017 Mar 18, 21:52

All the main characters are flawed but largely compelling. Flaws are what make someone interesting numbersix_99 Mar 19, 01:55
