Everything in due time...

April 24th, 2007 1:34AM

I just want to start off by saying I am getting the feedback that's sent to me but quite a bit of it is spam so at first I wasn't reading it. The legitimate ones, from redrocker96 and shaylin_5, were received but for some reason I couldn't respond to them. I got some error message about an address system that's makes it invalid or something..whatever. Anyway I'll respond to them here, hopefully you two will actually be reading this...

Open Water 2
I love how all these morons on here describe this as such a "dumb" and
horrible movie when they think movies like Shrek and The Matrix and Lord of
the Rings are great movies. Get bent! This movie was awesomee and I hope
there is an Open Water 3 so I can buy about 10,000 copies of it and inspire
them to do an Open Water 4. Morons.

Well you gotta love constructive criticism. There isn't much to say here except I'd appreciate it if people told me why they think my opinion is worthless rather than just calling names. Allow me to demonstrate:

It's one thing to have a silly plot. It's another thing to have a silly plot that you claim is a "true story" in order to justify it. And it's a whole 'nother problem to do all of the above, throw in some cliches and then ask me to care. I just didn't. The second they were in the water I figured they'd lock arms and boost the lightest person up. Or have a lighter person climb the rope. Or have someone smart enough to, you know, put the ladder down in the first place! I mean were none of them planning on a bathroom break? The whole story was just ridiculous and baby plot device crying at every convenience was enough to make me gag.

Now, I'm glad you enjoyed it but as I mentioned earlier -- criticism is not the same as ad hominem. If you're just going to attack then what's the point of giving feedback? It certainly isn't going to change my mind.

Avatar - The Last Airbender
I agree totally. I am KRAZY about Avatar! I think it's even to the point of obsession. I'm okay with it though. I LOVE IT! Especially ZUKO! I love his latest and greatest hair-do (Crossroads of Destiny hair-do) I waited, thankfully, for the box set and am extremely pleased with it. (i frown upon the single DVD's) I even managed to get several friends just as obsessed as me. (though, Zuko's still mine ;D) hee hee. Thanx for the review!
PS- you've got a good sense of humor. I always enjoy the voice of the Avatar community. I've never met an Avatar fan I didn't like yet.

Glad to hear from a fellow avatar psych..err...fan. I'm glad you enjoyed the review. Now all we have to do is wait for the box set and we can right back into the swing of things. It's always baffled me that things like a "collectible comic book" are seen as reason enough to shell out lackluster dvds. Anyway, the compliment at the end is much appreciated, and I have to return the sentiment...
PS - I'm not obsessed or anything, but I can safely that Zuko is mine ;)

COMING SOON
I have plans to update this with some pictures from a semi-recent trip to Africa plus some pointless ramblings from the corners of my mind a.k.a. blogging. Hopefully they'll come together a little faster than this one did, what with school and all.

Speaking of which, I'd like to express my condolences to all those who were lost in the Virginia Tech killings of a week ago. I'd also like to thank NBC for giving the killer exactly what he wanted by glorifying and sensationalizing his actions with the on-air release of his "package." I'm sorry, I just felt it needed to be said.

Everyone have a great week...
