Have you not been on IMDb long enough to know that all those 17-year-old Know-it-alls will spam the IMDb boards with their blatherings, no matter what?
There is no such thing as having a constructive conversation on IMDb. There is no such thing as constructive criticism on IMDb. At least on most boards that I've been to. And if you attempt to be constructive and/or polite, you only get yelled at or ridiculed. Enough for me to want to stay away.

Yeah, I know. Doesn't mean I can't vent about it, does it?

And that's why I made this thread, too. So we all have a place to express our anger about what's happening with this movie.

I need your help. Could everyone with an IMDb account please come to the Fanboys thread there and ring in with your opinion of the rape of the film? Laura and I are doing the best we can, but there's one very loud idiot over there who could use a good shouting-down. I'd really appreciate any back-up you could give us.

I give up on this guy. I just can't handle dealing with him tonight... or probably every again, honestly.

I understand. I get like that too. I'll stand and fight. We have a mandate from on high. We've been asked to do this so I'll keep plugging.

While it's probably a losing battle to try and debate with a horse's ass, I applaud your efforts. Maybe, if nothing else, they'll help get us a DVD Director's Cut version someday.

To be honest, I'm not a fan of Star Wars to begin with. The cancer version of Fanboys is soo intense and dramatic, especially since Chris is playing the part of the person with cancer. I don't have to like Star Wars to like the REAL version of Fanboys.
Offline
Yeah, Mel, that's something I was thinking about earlier. TWC has apparently somehow turned Fanboys into a movie only Star Wars fans will truly enjoy. So I just don't see a point in it anymore.
That might just be the momentarily cynical, moody me talking though... I'll probably be better tomorrow and will get back into the fight.
Offline
No Laura, you're exactly right. Which is why this whole thing makes no sense. It's intended only to please 17 year old boys. That's not cynical, it's fact. It's being remade for videogame junkie teenage horndogs. Everyone else can get bent as far as Fat Bastard is concerned. Like that girl sitting next to movieraider said, it's "Superbad with nerdier characters". But even Superbad had a huge heart. It appears as though a bunch of new sex jokes have been added to Fanboys too. Ahem.
Just wait guys, we are all going to be able to tell instantly which shots are from the original shoot and which are from the reshoots. Chris's hair was not quite right in the rehoots --- too thick and curly on top. It's going to give an extra level of stupidity to blow spitballs at.
I wonder if he did that on purpose, or maybe Kyle did...

SUperbad = beavus and but head like comedy.. or maybe even dazed and confuzed.. u know? That kinda humor
Fanboys=more plot driven and deeper characters.. I belive. Has a meaning.. not just "dude, mammas making a pubee salad...." lol.. i shant continue. Both GREAT movies... WEll superbad.. And i dont know what this FRankin-boys monster has become but... you know what i mean

I posted in two threads there today. Not that it's gonna do much. From what I could gather, though, from the few threads I've looked at is that the majority of people posting there seem to be vehemently against the no-cancer version. There's only this one idiot (can't remember his/her user name now) that seems to shout in everyone's face how great the no-cancer version is. I quoted him/her in one post, let's see if I get personally shouted at or ridiculed too.

Majority? No, that is absolutely not true. There's 3 guys (Raider, Spencer & Oni). Two of them are admittedly teenage boys and one seems too smart and too well-spoken to be. The rest of us, maybe 5-6 semi-active or active posters are advocating for the real movie. MindVault & Chainsaw are the most frequent posters among this group, but there are a few others.

Then I probably only looked at the few threads where there's not a lot of loud voicing of the non-cancer version being da bomb and the good guys giving their opinion about the cancer version being the only decent one...

I'm going to go post now on the Fanboys message board. The people on IMDB are usually soo ignorant they never listen to anyone with a different opinion though.

I posted some more. It's not gonna make a difference. And I'm about to give up. These people aren't gonna listen to sane arguments, and it's not my thing to go screaming at people because I think they're idiots. I might go back and see what they replied tomorrow. If they did. So far I've not been yelled at or ridiculed, but I'm expecting that to happen any day now.
But I do see that movieraider isn't making a whole lot of sense...

TJ is right. Besides those people are robots, especially movieraider.

Spencer's OK. He won't yell at you. Raider and his bestest buddy Oni probably will call you a few choice names before it's over. Raider is now claiming that since last night he's gotten and read a copy of the original script and seen all 4000 stills. Clearly this guy's deranged. That's not even remotely possible.
I'm not really trying to convince them that "our" version is better. I'm just simply stating the fact that we want to see it. And I'm not yelling anymore. Let Raider and Oni scream away and make themselves look as ridiculous as they are.

Guys, I think we should go ahead and start that petition. Why not? What could it hurt? We can even call the petition "Fanboys: Linus Must Die!" We just need to come up with good text for it. Has anyone ever written a petition before? I have not.

After looking at all the posts on the Fanboys IMDB I was surprised that anyone would even pretend to prefer the non-cancer version.
It seems like all logical reasoning is being attacked. I voiced my opinion on there, a few minutes ago, although I'm sure my opinion will be torn apart and attacked. I wish they'd just let us voice our opinions like they have been so avidly complaining about.
