Tangled up in Blu

Its so very nice to be right. People have been going bonkers over AVATAR and now that the hysteria has died down the realization has set in: the movie isn't really very good. But in keeping with the theme of blue things sucking, we move onto blu-ray players. Seems some people are fairly pissed off that they can't watch blue people on blu-ray. Just another reason why I sit confident in my assertion that blu-ray as a whole is a complete waste. You need an internet connection to download programs or your blu-ray player might not play disks? Are you freaking kidding me?

How hilarious is this? Seriously. Technology is supposed to be this create thing that makes our lives better and more convenient. Now if you want to watch a movie, having to wait on lagging load time isn't your only problem. I bet there's some people that spent hundreds of dollars on their players that are just ready to chew drywall right now. Now, I see you can get a blu-ray player from Wal-Mart for under $100. Nice. In fact that's such a sweet deal that I even thought for a fleeting moment about maybe getting one. Then I remembered they suck. They don't make a lick of different if you don't have a high definition television and my TV is skating on a proper ten years of age. Still works too. The rabbit ears get much better reception than that ridiculous digital antenna they sold me at Best Buy. Even has an anti-theft feature: the thing is heavy as hell. Good luck taking it.

I think we hit the tipping point of entertainment technology. Blu-rays give more detail than your eyes were meant to take in, making things look funny. Oh and now we need an internet connection our we're screwed with the stuff we buy? The hell with that. I'm sticking to DVDs and a Nintendo Wii. Not gonna be getting a new TV anytime soon either because the one I have works and fits nicely in the entertainment center. And I'm sticking to CDs too. Yeah, I sound old and cranky but new tech isn't cool if its a pain in the ass.

Pathetic fandom

AVATAR causes depression. This is out and out pitiful. Yes, these people need help. Its because they are idiots. They're getting bent out of shape because life isn't like a movie.

ITS FANTASY, MORONS!!!

I got bit by a spider and didn't get super powers. I dealt with it.

Yes this is an insensitive response to people would are having thoughts of suicide. They need medication or something. They are feeling these things because reality isn't as great as the movies. The vibrant and wonderful world depicted in the BATTLE FOR TERRA remix is so glorious that they can't cope with real world anymore. I could understand if it was one lone pathetic soul, but there's forums getting loaded up with this stupidity.

It's a movie. Its another in a long line of crap from holier than thou filmmakers and producers depicting the human race as conquering, morally bankrupt assholes. "Behold! This is our future unless we stop advancing our society and start hugging trees!"

Yeah, life isn't like the movies and most likely its not going to turn out the way you always hoped it would. Get a helmet, suck it up, and deal.

I'm saying it.

AVATAR is BATTLE FOR TERRA with a bigger budget and longer running time.

Tell me I'm wrong.
