Yeah, but they made that meal because I asked them to. And because of me those materials can’t be sold again. I didn’t ask for the shitty movie. That’s their problem. Don’t give me something I didn’t ask for. And they can sell that same effort to billions of other people even if I don’t pay for it.

Please tell me what the difference is between me not seeing it and not paying to see it. Physically. To the industry. How can they tell the difference? They can’t. But I can see the shit movie, understand it’s shittiness, and also not feed another shit movie. Only difference is I saw the movie.

Physical object not the same as zeros and ones. One prevents a sale. The other was never going to be a sale .

Sorry, I meant “not an American”. I’m not cheering for anyone to get cut, but I am cheering for a harmful industry to end. Other industries will pop up. Oil and coal people can move out west an be techs at solar and wind farms. Electric car companies will hire gas car ex-employees. Good movies will hire people from…

You seem to be implying in your posts that you’re an American, so let me tell you, as one, how sick I am of people whining that they deserve their job and only their job. Our melted orange popsicle of a president was elected by people like this. Coal sucks. Oil sucks. Your movie sucks. You are not entitled to revenue…

You lost the logical fight, so you resorted to ad hominem. Congrats.

Make better products!

Make better products!

I pay for Netflix and Amazon Prime. That’s about as much as I’m prepared to pay. If a studio’s are going to make exclusive deals on twenty different providers in order to nickel and dime me to death I’m not playing. That’s what torrents are for. If they want my money they know where to find me.

The point you just made is that goods that aren’t needed don’t make money and the people producing them don’t have a right to profit.

Why do you think a person has a RIGHT to make money off of a crappy product. Stealing a film is basically the same as not seeing it. Makes something I’m willing to pay for and I’ll pay you for it. Otherwise I’m torrenting your trash and chucking it after one viewing.

I haven’t spent a dime on a single piece of blockbuster superhero bullcrap in decades. I download them, see what the fuss it, and toss them. Sometimes a polish theater recording is good enough. And yet, they keep plunking down hundreds of millions per film to make this trash. I don’t seem to be influencing a thing.

When did “snowflakes” become and insult, exactly? I’ve seen it a few times, so I’m guessing the 4chaners all made a decision to use it at once... which is very un-snowflake.

Hasn’t this been disproven? I’ve seen in pop up every few years like most BS science, but in 2012 a pretty definitive study debunked the low cal=longevity theory: http://www.nytimes.com/2012/08/30/science/low-calorie-diet-doesnt-prolong-life-study-of-monkeys-finds.html

With all respect to Leia, Eleven is soooo much more than Leia.

Its easier for a blue monster puppet to get a late night gig than a woman. Welcome to 2017.

Come on, Ponies, don’t bring women and POC into a Wars/Trek debate. I love the fuck out of Star Trek, but I’ll take Leia over any of the representation in TOS or even TNG. She at least picks up a blaster and shoots. TOS was basically a bunch of white guys with different accents, an asian guy, a black woman and a…

Wait, what? The touch came after the iPhone.

Political crap meaning politics you don’t agree with.

The prada phone was a glorified palm pilot. No gestures, no multitouch, and the browser sucked. No comparison.
