Quite true, but will any of them be responding to this thread? Part of the fun of mocking stupid people is watching their righteous indignation, after all.

Thanks, everyone!
Ghost Rider wrote:Awesome, Wayne. And the elevator were some of the best, and Vader going "Fuck" was just perfect. Yes, trektards will still cling but this does put a great perspective of how stupid it is.
I've never read Darkstar's pages in depth. But I studied this one, and couldn't believe how idiotic the whole thing was!
Ghost Rider wrote:And omega...shut the fuck up, you useless spamming windbag.
Agreed. I'e got 6 months tops more use of that word!
Stravo wrote:It was awesome. Even though I knew the punch line and set up the elevator scene made me laugh out loud. I also loved that every guy had stubble growing progressively as the days dragged on. The use of the motif "That's stupid." "Yes, it is." was great too. Without putting too fine a point on it you summed it up beautifully.
Thanks. I thought that up on the fly as I was putting the movie together.
Stravo wrote:"Fuck you farm boy, let's go to the hangar." another great Vader line.
That was Gandalf's lines!
wjs7744 wrote:Very funny. Just one slight criticism, in the fighter scenes, when cutting between the two fighters, having an identical camera angle in each made it somewhat jarring.
That's how it was done in Star Wars. It doesn't play as well with animated characters.
Mange wrote:Absolutely brilliant, Wayne! "Use the spray and leave the fan on!" :lol:
That came directly from where I work. The women are constantly yelling that to each other!
Mange wrote:One minor nitpick though... I believe Leia says "The fleet will be here any moment".
Yeah, Vymp pointed that out as well. But I thought it would play better if it was "minute" married with "days". Besides, the who video isn't canonically correct. Why? Because, like Darkstar's idiotic theory, it didn't really happen!

Probably in part because it seems out of character for Vader. I'm pretty sure he didn't swear once in the entire 6-film saga.

The "fuck you, farmboy" exchange made me think of this:-
Darth Vader: Obi Wan never told you what happened to your father.
Luke: He told me enough! He told me you killed him!
Darth Vader: No... I am your father!
Luke: No, it's not true! It's impossible.
Darth Vader: Search your feelings... you know it to be true...
Luke: NO!
Darth Vader: Yes, it is true... and you know what else? You know That brass droid of yours?
Luke: Threepio?
Darth Vader: Yes... Threepio... I built him... when I was 7 years old...
Luke: No...
Darth Vader: Seven years old! And what have you done? Look at yourself, no hand, no job, and couldn't even levitate your own ship out of the swamp...
Luke: I destroyed your precious Death Star!
Darth Vader: When you were 20! When I was 10, I single-handedly destroyed a Trade Federation Droid Control ship!
Luke: Well, it's not my fault...
Darth Vader: Oh, here we go... "Poor me... my father never gave me what I wanted for my birthday... boo hoo, my daddy's the Dark Lord of the Sith...waahhh wahhh!"
Luke: Shut up...
Darth Vader: You're a slacker! By the time I was you're age, I had exterminated the Jedi knights!
Luke: I used to race my T-16 through Beggar's Canyon...
Darth Vader: Oh, for the love of the Emperor... 10 years old, winner of the Boonta Eve Open... Only human to ever fly a Pod Racer... right here baby!

Luke looks down the shaft. Takes a step towards it.

Darth Vader: I was wrong... You're not my kid... I don't know whose you are, but you sure ain't mine...

Luke takes a step off the platform, hesitates, then plunges down the shaft.
Darth Vader looks after him.

Darth Vader: Get a haircut!

Wayne, that was beautiful! DarkStar's theory is one of those things that no one should have to really seriously rebut, but that's about as good a job of taking care of a dumb argument as I've seen in a while.

Great vid Mr.Poe. I loved the " That's pretty stupid. Yes, yes it is." parts. They really drive home the point of the movie.

Of course my favorite part is the "lost in the bunker" scene. 8)

I'm uploading it to Youtube now (MrPoe account). Oh, and the negative reviews are starting to trickle in from SFJ!

First, here's a quote from President of the "Waaa! I got kicked out of SD.net!!" brigade, WILGA:
Who is like God arbour wrote:I don't see the point of your video. Sure it was funny, but it has no substantial worth as regards content.

Your only argument in your whole video seems to be, that it would be boring (or unfitting), if the movie would have shown scenes as you have created them. That's correct. It would be tremendous boring. That's why such scenes weren't shown in the movie. But that doesn't mean that similar things haven't happened.

* Why could it be impossible, that the Emporer has decided (off screen), to let Luke be put in a cell until shortly before the Alliance arrives?

* Why could it be impossible, that the task force on Endor has needed much more time (off screen) than a few minutes to find the shield control room without being detected by the enemy?

* Why could it be impossible, that Leia, as she has said any moments and not, as you have falsified, any minutes, wasn't sure about the exact time, the Alliance will arrive?

* Why could it be impossible, that, as it happens often in movies, the shown scenes aren't played back in the order they have happened?

It's a pity that you have not countered important arguments, which confirm the notion, that more time than a few minutes have passed.

I think, the most important argument is, that it should be impossible for the Ewoks to build their traps as shown in the movie and described in the novel in a few hours without alerting the enemy.

Maybe you should have shown, how the Ewoks could have done it.

And maybe you should have explained the changing shadows between the time, the Alliance Task Force enters the tunnel and the time, the Imperials are entering the tunnel.

These arguments are known to you. They won't vanish only because you ignore them. To be honest, your video is preposterous and doesn't show much sharpness.
"Doesn't show much sharpness"! I just love the Sesame Street/pussy-speak of SFJ!


And here's a quote from Darkstar's take:
2046 wrote:Incidentally, I find argument-by-video to be a very poor choice if reason is one's guide. Though used to great effect by 9/11 conspiracy nuts and Michael Moore-types, the 'persuasive video' genre suffers from its own goal and medium . . . not to mention its maker. Emotional impact is employed in the place of factual impact . . . much like the whole style of SDN debating.

In this case, Wayne has attempted to mock a demonstrable timeline by making up silly ideas of what people were up to during off-screen hours. That's all well and good . . . we generally have no real idea what anyone is doing during off-screen hours . . . but does that change the length of time required for Ewoks to dam a river, dig AT-ST-size holes, and dangle giant logs dozens of feet in the air with primitive stone-age tech? Does it change the length of time likely required for the stealthy approach of multiple people to a guarded entrance?

Of course not.
Yes everyone, not only do I write "persuasive essays", I now make "persuasive videos"!
