A few words about...™ The Bourne Trilogy -- in Blu-ray - Page 2

Travis, it doesnt matter what kind of money you make. That kind of stuff doesnt interest me. Ape heads, fancy DVD books, briefcases...its all crap. Just give me the movie in a plastic DVD, or Blu-ray case, that will stand the test of time, and doesnt waste space. Thats all i want.

+1 I wouldn't have purchased the Dirty Harry BD box set had I know they weren't going to be in individual cases. As soon as I find some artwork I will move them to individual cases. At least Fox released Bond and PoTA movies in the indivial cases (which I bought)so they would fit on my shelves.

Let's be fair and realistic with our accusations here

Yes, let's do that. Don't you see that some people mainly reacted to your rather idiotic hyperboles:
"he nearly has a aneurysm"
"like flying in a plane that's missing a wing"
"you write a mile long litany about it"
"perplexing and thoroughly out of balance"
"being so pedantic about the issue" (to someone else, mind you! )

--reread my original post and you'll see that all I was doing was giving Mr. Harris a little ribbing, .... It was others, such as yourself, that turned that one-off "mole hill" into a "mountain"

No, it was you who was going on and further after the "little ribbing", in reply to (understandable) remarks by the OP (the person who you were "ribbing").

Quote:
by rushing to defend Mr. Harris as though I had threatened to murder his children and burn his house down.
Another hyperbole? And people who don't agree with you are only unjustly defending the OP?

Quote:
Amazing the lack of perspective that can happen around here when anyone is even minutely critical of the exalted Mr. Harris.
"Exalted"? So first you construe a crowd coming to the defense of RAH, and then you prove that by pointing out that ... they rush to come to his defense.

Quote:
So, I ask again, since absolutely nothing of any worth (or dignity) is happening on either side of this argument anymore, can we please move on?
Perhaps people would, if you didn't come back time and again to add to your (allow me) mile long rant.

Oh, and sometimes, when a member who happens to be an administrator is taking part in a discussion, he's not doing that specifically in his capacity of administrator. Like Crawdaddy in this thread.

So "As an administrator, is there some reason why you are denying this request for me and prolonging an unnecessary debate?" is totally beside the point. In fact, one could wonder why you, not being a moderator, try to direct other members to stop replying to your posts - more than once.

If you like a discussion to stop, the best way of course is: to stop in the first place. If you won't stop, people can rightfully assume that you really want to continue and they have a right to refute your last remark, whatever that happens to be (because you originally started the matter).

I could write for a mile about the gross inaccuracies and perversions of fact littering your post, but to what end? I've asked twice now for the bickering over so little to cease; your refusal to do so speaks volumes. If you are pleased with sacrificing your dignity, I won't stop you--but nor will I join you. What I will focus on is your revolting and indefensible labelling of me as "idiotic". I quote from the forum rules you are pledged to protect, support and defend: "We will not verbally attack other members in a personal way, but instead try to contribute to the common knowledge about, and understanding of all applicable topics discussed." I believe, at minimum, I am owed a public apology for this transgression--I know for a fact that line would not have been tolerated for a second if it had been said by a "regular" forum member--and would suggest you to take a good hard look at your desire and ability to "practice what you preach".

Please, read.
't Was the hyperboles I called "rather idiotic". Not you.
By which label I stand.
