Saying you have "no interest" in his comments is a shift from what you said earlier, which was that what he said is "moronic" (which you couldn't know without actually listening to what he said), which, unfortunately, didn't keep you from saying it anyway.
Read what I say before you quote me. I said the guy was a moron which is the opinion I formed of him after listening to a little over a minute of his commentary. The part about me having no interest in what he has to say still holds true, though, so you're batting .500 in your analysis of my posts.
Making such a judgment after listening to about 1.4% of what the man had to say (you have no knowledge of how intelligent or insightful the comments were, which would belie your judgment) about the subject is premature to say the least.
That 1.4% was enough for me to form an opinion, but if you have nothing better to do with 70 min. of your life then by all means enjoy that crap to your heart's content.
It was certainly a FAR more enjoyable, entertaining 70 minutes than watching the film itself.
While I quoted you specifically, my comment was in general regard to the "waste of time" attitudes.
-- how can we possibly decry anothers' endeavor (which directly relates to our favorite way of wasting time) as "a waste of time to spend so much of your life" on? Really, it boggles my mind to read commenters in HTF saying that a thoughtful examination of the fundamentals to good cinematic story telling is a waste of time. I can't wrap my head around this opinion.
That's nonsense.
My mind is as equally boggled (if that's a word) about how much people have to keep telling people how bad the SW prequels were. There's no other movies in human history that make people, a decade after the release of the first one, go on and on about how bad they were. I think it's fair to say that The Matrix sequels, Batman And Robin or even Superman III and IV were disliked by a large number of people but no one spends as much time trying to point out why they were bad movies as people do with the Star Wars prequels.
Exactly. I think the only 3 things in life you can rest assured people will argue about are Politics, Religion and Star Wars. No other film franchise in history has caused so much disagreement among people and I can't understand how some refuse to let it go. In addition to the movies you mentioned we also have Spider-Man 3, Indiana Jones IV, The Godfather III, Transformers 2 and countless other big franchise sequels that sucked epically, but the only ones people continue to bitch about to this day are the SW prequels. I'll never understand the fixation some have on complaining about these films.
