The sooner people realise that things like this are done for entertainment purposes by fans, and not by Paramount/ILM etc the better. There is nothing more annoying for someone who makes a movie than someone bashing it because of the outcome. Personally it wouldn't both me who win; I love watching space battles and I am in debt to anyone who makes these movies come true. As should we all.

Tell me this if I made a movie about a six year old with a Broad-sword who kills legions of the NYPD and American Marines would it annoy you?



A sixth of this board is just used for the debating of which Fictonal Unvierse is more power Tron and if you can't grasp that kindly remove your head from your niether reigions and look at the forum title your posting under
And indeed if it is quite useless why are you here?

That would depend on whether the movie was entertaining or not. When I watch fan films, I look at the technical quality, and whether or not it is entertaining. After all, it takes a while to download them on a dial up connection. I would rather not waste my time downloading a poor quality film.

This thread was pointed out to me by someone, as a amature 3D artist, I was interested in what would be said about the film. I was also interested as to what would be said about the film by a bunch a fanatical Warsies.

I must admit, that my opinion of you is confirmed by your responses. You shouldn't worry to much about that, though. My opinion of fanatical Trekkies, Fivers, Rommies, etc is about the same.

I find it interesting that I neither flamed or swore at you personally, yet yo do this to me in your first response. If that is the level of your debating skill, it tells me a lot about your intelligence.

I did look at the forum title I was posting under, I also looked at the thread title.

Note: For some reason this portion of my answer didn't appear in the original answre to you. I would have edited it, but that function seems to be missing at this forum.

Hmm I ask you to remove your head from you ass and you repeat yourself? Mistake? Or a simple insight into your relative IQ level?

As for your opion of me as a Fanatica Warise you sir are saddly mistake to call me a Fanatical anything is a gross misuse of the word but thats just a symantical point, in the paritucle relam I realy care what your opion is of me besides the fact its a pre-concied notion you have of me which I can exploite for personal gain if I so chose, at least in real life, however here on the vast reachs of the Internet and this smaller area of this BBI Board it simply lets me know that your coming into any posting with pre-coviced notions that apporch Darkstar levels in unchangeable impressions and mearly shows me your a weak debator.

The movie was trite, the scalls where way off and it can be a wank fest with one Voyager Vs 5000 ISD's and hell lets throw some Culture ships in there too and have it kill them all with a single blast
It still makes it a bad movie
My point stands its a terrible flic, besides scalling inatropate music chocie, blurry graphics though excelent animation of the Voyager its lackluster in everything else and, yes note the AND it happens to be a Trecky Wank Fest
Disagree with me on the last point matters not to me, its go enough going for it to make it a bad movie.

Your constant drawing of Conculsions is acutal a bit amusing to me, First its, based on this one statment I shall make a judgment on your entire charater, being and person and hen's forth shall treat you compeltly diffrently based on one thing

And you follow this up mear mintues later with
Ahh you flamed me with your first response, therefor I will make a second set of assumpitons and called you a troll but it no so many words and proven that I know how to use an Ad-Homen attack


Anything else you'd like to add Tron?

Ok at least you stated an opinion here ... the movie is a Beta I believe, and is not the finished article. However, I would like you to understand that to get to this level of quality takes hundreds of hours of dedication, so cut the maker some slack and give him some respect for it.

I was unaware we were required to like things just because people put effort into them.

Sniffle sniffle, Tron. We're all so mean, and you did us no wrong. All you did was insult our hobby and call us fools.
I think it is the pinacle of foolishness to fight over which fictional universe would beat up on another fictional universe.
Anyway...

I think it's this fellow's prerogative to make whatever movie he wants. If he wanted to make a movie where the Space Shuttle Columbia took out a million billion Culture GSVs, he could go ahead and do that. I can still consider him an idiot, though.

A mistake on your part, I haven't repeated myself. Of course, you may be geting your posts mixed up with mine. I can understand that.

As far as my intelligence level goes, it does seem to be a bit higher than yours.
As for your opion of me as a Fanatica Warise you sir are saddly mistake to call me a Fanatical anything is a gross misuse of the word but thats just a symantical point, in the paritucle relam I realy care what your opion is of me besides the fact its a pre-concied notion you have of me which I can exploite for personal gain if I so chose, at least in real life, however here on the vast reachs of the Internet and this smaller area of this BBI Board it simply lets me know that your coming into any posting with pre-coviced notions that apporch Darkstar levels in unchangeable impressions and mearly shows me your a weak debator.
Actually, I haven't called you anything except unintelligent. In my previous posts, I was refering to "Fanatical Warsies" as a whole, and used "you" in the editorial sense, not the personal. Of course if you are so paranoid, that you (this time used in the personal sense) have to take it personally, there is nothing I can do about that.

At last, something substantial, other than "The ISDs didn't win".

The film was done by an amature artist/filmaker. If it were technically perfect, I would be even more impressed with his skill. As I am sure you would have been. However, it makes me wonder, with your previous posts, whether that would have made any difference. It seems to me, that unless the Star Wars ships are shown to be superior, you wouldn't like it anyway.


I also note, that you could have used an edit funtion, too. Which seems odd, considering that your previous posts were fairly well made, with no typos, and very few grammatical errors. Do you lose typing skill as you get angrier? And yes, that was an attack on you, but at least I will admit it, rather than call the pot black.

Okie, he is allowed to make his own movie, even if it doesn't fit with the results of the scientificaly based comparison done between the two universes.

I think he's wrong and ignoring the evidence though, but he isn't required to follow it either.

Ofcourse if he is the kind of person that loathes SW and made this to try and piss warsies off or something, I most definitly will think of it as a "trekkie wankfest" as someone said.

Yes you are very mature are you? Miles happens to be one of the most respectable members of SB. He has done you nothing and when you call him an idiot for no reason then you hurt us all. :evil: :roll: :evil:
And I started to respect you guys but clearly all that just went down the draine when you called him an idiot.

Though we are not now that strength which in old days
Moved earth and heaven, that which we are, we are,--
One equal temper of heroic hearts,
Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will
To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.

So it's okay to insult people, but it's not okay to cuss. Whee--all aboard the logic train, next stop Tron-town.

Dark Primus--
If you didn't want him to be insulted, why did you post his movie here? It really belongs in the Other Sci-Fi or Off-Topic forums. But that wouldn't fulfill your reasons for bringing it here, would it? I looked at your thread on SB, this is exactly the result you anticipated. So, sit down, shut up, and quit your crying.

Guys, let me quote Big Steve on this subject.
And finally, who gives a shit? These movies are for eye candy, they're fun to watch, they're not supposed to reflect one person or another's take on the whole "ST vs. B5" or "SW vs. B5" debating thing. If you don't like it, then fuck off.

Oh, the big mature SBers are here to tell us we're immature for enjoying a hobby and not liking what they like. Well, once the Thought Police are done touting how wonderful they are, can I make a fanfilm of a broken TIE fighter destroying the whole Federation fleet? :twisted:

Ofcourse the only real way to solve this is to make a movie like this, except inversed, and post it and measure that reaction, and it should be posted in the vs. debates on SB then.

We will then have a mirror scenario to compare with.

Personally I am in doubt that all the people really thinks that it's just for enjoyment and a hobbie and so on, I think there is definitly a few people out there watching that movie feeling real good to see SW being beat.
I mean with vs. debating and the bad blood that comes of it, ofcourse some people are just loosers who are way too serious about this.
That problem is called sci-fi envy, very similar to penis envy.

I'll come back later with an actual comment on the movies quality, I think I already made it clear I did not like the story.
