Thank you for your valuable insight.

Yea, that's why I said it could be wrong. Although I saw this on Deadline earlier with the headline, "‘Avatar 2’ Won’t Arrive For Christmas 2018, Says Director James Cameron"

A1. I'm being really broad with my definiton of business here. Most conferences and meetings would fit there.

Ah, I always thought he was directing, per IMDb. But that could be wrong.

C. I didn't say they'd give the same kind of presentation. I'd say that they'd still give BAD presentations. If you can't use a stream of summaries and visual aids to help in your speaking, then you're bad at presenting. If you can't do it without those aids, you're also bad at presenting. Powerpoint is not to…

It could be fun. James Cameron tends to make good movies.

Oh shit. Other people know about that?

A. "Most of the "visual aids" I see people use in presentations are not actually visual in nature." Listen, I'm sorry that neither you or nobody you know are able to effectively use slides when presenting.
A1. What the fuck else are conference rooms for? And yes, high school and college students often use…

C. Because as I've said multiple times, Powerpoint, the tool, isn't the culprit. The same people who give boring, unpersuasive and/or incoherent presentations with the aid of Powerpoint would be doing that without it. It's a tool, just like CGI in movies, that gets a bad rap because too many people don't know how to…

C. Disagree. I crush powerpoints.

A. "Visual aids" are not visual in nature?
A1. You're the one who brought up conference rooms. The only other major use for it I can think of is education.
A2. Slides do not reduce the effectiveness of the verbal communication when used correctly.
B. Never used elide that way. Oxofrd English dictionary would seem to…

It would be great if everyone stopped monopolozing the comments sections on literally every article.

A. I respectfully disagree. Most presentations in the business world require a written summary of what was covered, visual aids, and numbers that would be forgettable and unpersuasive if merely communicated verbally.
B. I've only ever heard "elide" to mean skip over entirely. I conceded that and just mentioned it's…

Yea, well I know. Please, everyone stop.

And what I'd posit is, "Then why post anything at all?"

I always thought it was interesting that the show is still called "Buffy the Vampire Slayer", yet it totally drops the high concept "Valley girl takes on supernatural responsibility" idea.

He also has some child pornography. He was actually allowed to keep it because it's clearly part of a very large pornography collection and it's all historical (i.e. made before child pornography was a law on the books). Who knows about his actual proclivities, but that was his effective legal defense.

Not hot at all. The show's silly and overwritten. The actors aren't nearly skilled enough to pull off Joss Whedon's internal monologue that well. And both the action and horror elements are underwhelming.

But then why not just do the "It's so dense" line? I'm confused.

I wonder if that's intentional given that's how the objectives of Red Squadron were set-up in the movie.
