Live action

[grouchobeer]

I note that the TMU site says that as well as animations, it is now for "occasional live-action projects from our members". I do a little show called LET ME GET THIS STRAIGHT where I interview scumbags in the news, like Laura Bush and Tony Hayward. Would it be permissible to post these here? Thanks.

As long as you interview scumbags like Barack Obama and Janeane Garofalo.



On a serious note, D.L. Watson, Nick Blacketeer and a couple others have made 'true' live-action films. I think that is what is being referred to.

I though "live action project" meant anything involving real people instead of animation. I've seen some things that aren't necessarily "films" that have been posted by some of our members. I guess this is a question for Ken.

Don'tcha love it when people blame all the problems of this country on entertainers like Janeane Garofalo and Barbra Streisand?

D.L. and Nick have made some good films but they are not any "'truer' live-action films" than mine (which I seriously doubt you've seen.) As Gertrude Stein would say, live-action is live-action is live-action.

As far as I know, you do not speak for this site, and are therefore just blowing hot air out of your backside so I will await word from someone with actual juice here.

"Live action" movies from TMU members are indeed accepted (provided, of course, that they don't breach the very elastic guidelines we have (i.e. no pr0n, etc) and, if they contain "mature" material, that they are tagged as such).

Thanks, Killian.

No, I don't speak for the 'whole' website but I did give my opinion on what who I thought did live action pictures. If you can't accepot an opinion, then so be it.

To insult me for trying to help just proves you are more ignorant than those names I mentioned in the first part of the post.

Let me get it straight, since I am not a moderator, my opinion doesn't count? Then since you only make comedies, your review comments of non-comedies shouldn't count. Sounds STUPID doesn't it? Oh, I forget, unless you are of a liberal mindset and can make fun of only non-liberals, you can't accept opinions of non-liberals.

Guess that leaves out anything Grouchobeer does except Sugarbabes.

Let me remind you, sir, that you fired the first shot across my bow. I don't know you from the hole in the wall of the booth at the adult bookstore where you suck random anonymous truck driver cocks.

I was not asking for the uninformed opinions of right-wing cretins. If I wanted that, I could go up to anybody on the street, or your redneck daddy and albino brother on the front porch pickin' their banjos, or your trucker friends. As the saying goes, opinions are like hemorrhoids. I wanted a ruling, either yea or nay, from a member of the staff-- someone with juice, since you seem not to understand the term. I'm sorry I can't write more slowly, but I will in future try to use smaller words so you can perhaps understand them. (Hint: the "i" is silent. Now sound it out. No, not "Jews", "juice". Attaboy.)

In one incredibly idiotic post, you give your unsolicited opinion; you decide that my live-action movies (which you have not seen) are somehow not as livey live-action as some of the more livier live-action live-action movies on the site; and you blame the problems of this country on Janeane Garofalo, host of a radio show no one listens to on a network no one gets, and Barack Obama. I am not a fan of Obama, but you and your gun-totin', Glen Beck listenin', Mel Gibson movie-watchin', tea-partyin' good ole boys were all over his shit on January 21 of last year because he hadn't solved all the nation's problems-- problems that you didn't acknowledge existed on, say, January 19. Congratulations. You've won the trifecta of stupid.

Then after Killian (a staff member) answers my question and I politely thank him and consider the matter closed, you attack me again. And again. And in a totally moronic way. People who post their movies are ASKING for others' opinions on them. Again, I was not asking for your opinion. If you can't see the difference there, you are much stupider than I originally imagined.

I think that this sentence from your first reply is worth quoting again, just to show what a big brain you are: "I did give my opinion on what who I thought did live action pictures. If you can't accepot an opinion..."

I cannot and will not "accepot" an opinion from someone who says "on what who I thought". Dumbass.

Betcha by golly wow...

I realize that since the server move, our minimalistic guidelines for forum behavior aren't there, so perhaps they've been forgotten.

We encourage passionate discussion here, but lets not allow our passion to carry us into madness, if you get my drift, and I know you do. We have no problem with less than civil back and forth, but regardless of whether we agree or disagree, let's remember that:


This is primarily a machinima/filmmaking forum. If you want to argue politics, religion, baseball, or any other damn thing, I'll be glad to hunt you up some links to places where you can do that.
Accept that others have cosmically different views from you, and either revel in the diversity or ignore them. There is an ignore function in vBulletin. Use it if you must.
DO NOT allow disagreement to degenerate into personal attacks. Attack the idea, not the witless liberal, conservative, Christian, Muslim, Jew, Dodger fan, Cub fan, Yankee fan, etc. who holds those beliefs.
If you must squabble more passionately than we like publicly, please feel free to take it to PM and party on.

I like both of you guys. I also understand that forum threads can blow up, and go spiraling into the abyss pretty damn quickly...such is the nature of instant communication. And I don't want to start cracking heads early in the morning while I'm trying to get through my first cup of coffee.

So question answered, I've peed on the fire and closed the thread, and let's not start this particular fire again...try to start this particular fire again here, and somebody is apt to get burned to a cinder. So to speak.

Thanks.

Ken
