I am afraid of how true that is...

Well, I do have live steel, but apart from that I rate a yellow.

Captain Cyran · Post by **Captain Cyran** » 2005-01-30 01:26am

I rate between a green and a yellow. I'm not yellow because I'm not a fanatic and I don't give a damn about the changes, but I know many of the details that other more casual fans don't.

I rate...hm, I'm not a fanatic per se, I can deal with the changes (and I know of nearly all of them large and small) so not really a yellow, but I almost worship the movies so that seems somewhat higher than a green.

green--Cyran--Me--Yellow? That might work. If it is ok to not mind the changes but still be a fanatic I'd call myself a yellow though.

<--- Green (thank god)

It's funny, but the leap from Green to Yellow is too large. I mean really there is only small bits that even change between Yellow, Red, and the fucknut at the end.

It's okay, but I've seen them do better with identifying fanatics with a better version of the highs and lows.

I know campers who didn't have Yellow knowledge.

It's not the absurdity I'm complaining about. It's the leap.

So let's put this way to even make this board in general feel good. Four level of Star Wars.

1. Green: I like Attack of the Clones...and Revenge looks cool.

2. Yellow: Now we know it's absolutely impossible utilizing Style II that Count Dooku weilds as his major style to perform that manuver, instead he should have shifted his stance to a more pliable Stage 3.

3. Red: I must see Revenge...FUCK THE WEATHER!!!

4. Psycho: Wields real life lightsaber.

All I'm saying as C-A-D has done before for fan/fanatics, this is a poor job compared to their other demonstrating difference between fans, nuts, and the fanwhores.

Actually Style III is the defensive one, not very pliable... you'd want four.

Yeah I know you were making a point, but I couldn't help myself.

LOL

Yeah, I gotcha. Honestly my beef is that Red and Yellow should've been switched, because in my time of seeing ticket waiters and being one, I found more just fans and less rabid(except those being the first 10 in line).

With LotR, I'm a yellow. I bitched near-constantly throughout the movies about every tiny change from the books.

With SW, I'm between a red and a total psycho fucknut (although closer to the red).

High carbon steel? So I'm guessing that thing's no wall-hanger... Erm... Possibly not.

Does she know what she's doing with it?

Well, for SW I'm Green/Red...

I'm of the "I couldn't wait to watch all three, but after the first 2 hours my butt was asleep and couldn't wait for it to be over". What does that make me?

Post by **fgalkin** » 2005-01-31 01:42am

Yellowish for LotR, Green for SW.

Have a very nice day.

And when the revolution comes, you types will be culled.

Me? I'm an orange. I have a vast library of details... however, I couldn't give a flying fuck about any "changes" to the story if I tried.

Funny, and it has a great sig line.

darthdavid · Post by **darthdavid** » 2005-01-31 09:36pm

I'd probably rate between Green and Yellow. I know a fair ammount of details from the book but only really complained about the unreasonable changes. I mean it's one thing to fix up this or that so it's more interesting/better for movies but come on, you need fucking tom bombadil. He kicked ass!
