Re: One for the ladies


Who is CGSailer, hana!?



A person who claims to hate this movie, yet is absolutely and totally obsessed with it and this board. He responds to pretty much every thread here with either a hateful, condescending, hostile reply or just a grumpy explanation of....whatever the hell he's trying to explain.

He's not the only one though. There are TWO other guys - they know very well who they are - who I would say are even worse than CGSailor. A lot of times they're very close to troll-land. It's quite sad looking at those guys, really.

The problem is that they're not 10-year-old kids. You would expect that kind of childish behavior from kids. I get it, you don't like a certain movie. Good for you. But when you start obsessing over the stuff that don't make you feel good and you keep on pushing, it means you have a problem.

A psychiatrist would have a field day with those guys.


Now, I also dislike certain movies, books and songs. But it NEVER crossed my mind to go on message boards and start spreading hate for the stuff I don't like. What's the point? There is no point!

It's one thing to post a well-balanced, intelligent comment that is critical of a certain piece of art, it's TOTALLY different when you spread pure hate and/or negativity for years and years.

That means you have a problem. And it's not funny anymore.

Re: One for the ladies

Hey asshat, He knows exactly who I am.
You're talking to the same guy. All those names above are the same person and his multiple sockpuppets talking to himself for kicks.

He's a stolen valor troll who claims to have been a Marine. A Naval Fighter Pilot, a SEAL, and a Submariner.

Re: One for the ladies

I don't give a rat's ass who he is, how many accounts he has or whether he knows you or not. All I know is that the stuff I said in my reply to him are the absolute truth.

Have a nice day.

Only the absolute truth in whatever twisted fantasy you live in.

Re: One for the ladies

So let me get this straight, pal. You say it's not true.

So it's not true that usually you respond in a hostile, grumpy, negative way?
So it's not true that you have some weird fascination with a movie you claim to hate?
So it's not true that you post negative stuff quite frequently not only on this board and that you are especially negative toward any person who dares to say something good about this movie?


Oh, wait, wait, wait! Actually, ALL OF THAT IS 100% TRUE and visible to all who visit this board! So why deny the VISIBLE facts, CGSailor? Do you really believe people are idiots? Your post history is wide open for all to see, yet you come in here telling ME that what I said was a fantasy. People even make special threads about YOU (look up Darwinskid recent thread here).

Stop living in the Matrix, pal. Instead, get your *beep* together, relax your nerves and learn to be more respectful. You're a grown-ass man, for God's sake. Aren't you just a little bit embarrassed?

Jesus!

Re: One for the ladies

Only when someone posts something ignorant. Otherwise no.

(unfortunately there are a lot of ignorant people so it seems I am always grumpy)

I also respond hostile to asshats who attack me or others, As YOU do.

So yeah... You are going to see a lot of hostile from me. brought on by yourself.


So it's not true that you have some weird fascination with a movie you claim to hate?

Nope. That one's not true at all. I rarely spend any time on this board. The only reason I DO come here at all is because the film deals with a aubject mattwr which I am well versed in. Pearl Harbor.. There are the ocassional historical threads on here which are worth coming here for. And when I do check in to see if there are any good threads, there are usually several fanboy idiots (like you) posting such drivel about what is a grossly inaccurate film.

But weirdly fascinated with the film? no.



So it's not true that you post negative stuff quite frequently not only on this board
Haters and idiots are everywhere. So yes... I do have negative posts elswhere. But negative posts is not all I post or even most of what I post.

Its just that idiots like you... it's all you fixate on.
You dont even bother to look beyond finding other negative posts and stop looking as thats all you want to find to give yourself "proof" of your preconcieved notion.


and that you are especially negative toward any person who dares to say something good about this movie?


Dont go confusing refuting and arguing against someone's statement which I do not agree with as being negative towards a person.

Or are you one of those special snowflake liberals that thinks that being entitled to an opinion means no one is allowed to disagree with your opinion?


Oh, wait, wait, wait! Actually, ALL OF THAT IS 100% TRUE and visible to all who visit this board! So why deny the VISIBLE facts, CGSailor?

Not. I just showed that it isn't.


Do you really believe people are idiots?


People... as in "everyone"?
No.
That is what you call a strawman argument, loser.

There are a lot of people who ARE idiots, yes. But I dont think everyone is. Not even most.
Nor do I think everyone I disagree with is an idiot.

But there are idiots, and Yes, when I come across one I will point out his or hers idiocy.

But claiming I think everyone is an idiot because I do trash people who post stupidity... is a false strawman argument on your part.


People even make special threads about YOU (look up Darwinskid recent thread here).

And there is a common thread to those who do.

They are not just random posters.
They don't come from ordinary, decent posters.

The common thread is that those who do are like the OP in this thread made specifically about me. By a troll.
A troll that is a verified and acknowledged troll by many a decent and good poster. A troll that stalks me from forum to forum and even tried stalking me off site to other sites.

Or like Darwinskid, they're like you... A fanboy asshat who cant stand honest criticism of their favorite film or show and thust they attack personally the person pointing out their favorite shows flaws.

I attacked the show, not you.
You in turn attack me.

You can't defend against what I say about the film, because it's true. so you attack me instead. making up bullsh!t about my being wierdly fascinated by it, etc...


YOU. are you one with the serious issue here. You.



You're a grown-ass man, for God's sake. Aren't you just a little bit embarrassed?

Not embarrassed one bit. I got nothing to be embarrassed about. I know how to argue logically. I can defend what I say. I don't put up with crap from idiots. I don't use strawman or other fallacious argument to defend what is indefensible.

YOU on the other hand....

You are wierdly fascinated with me.
You attack me personally because I state the facts about how badly this film treats the historical record. I have in fact defended this film when someone has attacked something it got right, or is nothing to attack the film over. (Just recently in fact).

But you are one of those irrational Zealot fanboys that cannot brook ANY criticism no matter how factual or deserved.
So you attack the critic.


You posts about me reveals more about you, than me.

Oh no, I have no issues with people who can debate fairly and point out legitimate flaws in a film or show, even if I enjoy it, or put a reasonable defense for something I don't like. If they make a fair argument I'll concede to them, if not I'll continue the debate as I feel inclined to do so. I'm just not a fan of people with ego issues who display childish behaviors online, think they're the definitive authority on a lot of things, make actual verbal attacks at others, and when somebody calls them out on their bull they play the part of the weak and misunderstood type.

There's a lot of anger and frustration in you, buddy, or at least that's how you read as being. Perhaps you should stay off IMDb for a while or reevaluate your writing style. Try meditation or some yoga, or listen to Daft Punk once in a while...Wait, probably not a fan of either three, no? Well, I wouldn't be too shocked. Based on your writings, you might've been the inspiration for Eustace Bagge from Courage the Cowardly Dog, matter of fact you even look like him -

Except for one thing... that entire statement is a lie.

When I and others point out the mistreatment of historical events, or the goofs, and other errors of fact, The ridiculous and cartoonish CGI of fighters dogfighting 5 feet off the ground dodging around vehicles at ground lecel and between buildings below rooftop level., or any of the other 101 things wrong with the film..... You dont argue or debate it. Intelligently or otherwise.

Your infantile little fanboy mind attacks us. Calls us the very things YOU do. just as you're doing now.

You pull the same.crap on The Last Ship whenever I or others point out the Ignorant and ridiculous Military mistakes.
You dont debate. You attack the poster.

I do not believe that I denied or ignored any of the mentioned mistakes, errors, or others ridiculous aspects to this or other films or shows or said nobody had the right to call those out if they saw fit. I believe my argument was that most people who are not very well versed in certain historical events, physics, or militaristic weaponry or vehicles can see past them and generally just focus on the story and characters, which for most film and tv viewers comes first. And, just because they don't feel as strongly about you call out doesn't make them weak minded "zombies" who eat everything up and are basically what's wrong with today's society or some crap like that.


You pull the same.crap on The Last Ship whenever I or others point out the Ignorant and ridiculous Military mistakes.


You must have some memory issues, sir. I haven't been on the boards for The Last Ship for a very, very long time and rarely ever visit there as it stands, and when I did I wasn't exactly super duper active, barely a presence at all on that place.


You dont debate. You attack the poster.


You mean like what you're doing now and on like a regular basis or something?

Re: One for the ladies


The ridiculous and cartoonish CGI of fighters dogfighting



Cartoonish CGI??? Wow! You really are neck deep in hate-land.

Pearl Harbor has some of the best visual efects in history, my friend. The ILM guys are VERY proud of it, they always include shots of the plane sequences in ILM reels and anniversary videos. On their website as well. Also, the movie was nominated for an Oscar for Best Visual Effects.

You can talk about how innacurate Pearl Harbor is all you want, but don't you dare attacking or undermining the talented people who created these spectacular CG images. You want cartoonish CG planes and flying sequences?

Go watch Stealth, Flyboys and some of the scenes in The Aviator.




========================
"You don't watch Michael Bay films. They happen to you."

Re: One for the ladies

Cartoonish in the behavior, not the look.

The CGI visually looks real.

However the CGI acts according to cartoon physics and aerodynamics.

If they had used real planes they never could have filmed the scenes because the real planes cannot do that.

Hence, Cartoonish.

As in Roadrunner/Coyote physics.

Re: One for the ladies

You're in for a lot of disappointments if you use in the same sentence the words "physics", "aerodynamics" and "Hollywood". Of course Bay's gonna make those sequences a little bit exaggerated. He's making exciting/adrenaline-pumping movies so in this case you have to have those flying sequences. Are they realistic? Hell no. Are they exciting for the audience? Hell, yes. So from a purely filmmaker's POV Bay did it right.

He's making a MOVIE, for the ordinary audience. I'm sure if he was aiming to please people like you he would've been way more realistic.

By the way, while we're at it, why aren't you complaining about Tom Sizemore's character in Black Hawk Down? That was a character that walked calmly like he's in his house when he's literally surrounded by flying bullets and gunfire. It's like he was a superhero. And that's not planes, that's a real person. A character based on a real man - Colonel Danny McKnight. Was he even remotely realistic in the movie? Hell no. He's very exaggerated and many people have stated that it's simply not possible for a real person to act this way in an urban war zone.

So why don't you point that out, CGSailor? Why aren't you on the Black Hawk Down board exposing the mistakes? Or maybe you don't want to admit - even to yourself - the mistakes and all the exaggerations in movies you like (assuming you even like Black Hawk Down).

Double standard much?



If they had used real planes they never could have filmed the scenes because the real planes cannot do that.



They had DOZENS of real planes on set. They shot a huge amount of scenes with real, old planes in the air. And that is obvious in the finished movie. It's all well-documented in behind-the scene-videos and it's something that the entire crew is very much proud of it. Go to YouTube and type "Creating Pearl Harbor". See it for yourself.

Btw, I recently watched a new interview with the cinematographer of Pearl Harbor. First, he's VERY proud of the movie. As he should be. Second, he said that they used more real planes than they actually needed. He also said, and I quote: "Most of the planes that you see in the movie are real." And he made it clear that if another filmmaker was making the same movie today you would've seen A LOT more CGI and fake planes and explosions. Which is absolutely true.


So CGSailor, the least you can do is give props to Bay and his crew for actually shooting a lot of real, exciting plane sequences. Not everything is CG.



==================================
"You don't watch Michael Bay films. They happen to you."

Re: One for the ladies

And yes... Stealth and Flyboys are just as bad for many of the same reasons. I'll take your word for the Aviator as I havent seen it.

Another one just as bad is Red Tails. For the same reason.


The CGI plane is supposed to be a real aircraft. As such it has to behave as the real aircraft would.

But since it isn't a real aircraft, it behaves however the director wants it to. If he wants it to fly sideways, or take off backwards, tail first... it can.


Because of that, one must take care that you are making it act realistically.
Bay doesn't. He cares only that "it looks cool". Not whether it was realistic.

Re: One for the ladies

So did you like the film?

What was your favorite scene? What could have made it more enjoyable for you?

Anything else about the film you'd like to comment on?

Yeah, we get that you like to argue with people and post only to argue about things and point out every flaw or inaccuracy anyone has typed....EVER, but do you actually like movies? Do you like to talk about movies?.

Other than to live to find someone, somewhere who typed something you feel is inaccurate do you have anything else to offer the board?

Please bring it...it would be so refreshing.

Re: One for the ladies


Only when someone posts something ignorant. Otherwise no.



Really? Like that person a day or two ago who made a thread here, you of course replied back in your classic grumpy way, and he called you out. Rightfully. There was nothing ignorant in his post.

Admit it pal, this is who you are. Stop trying to find problems in others. Yes, there are people who are ignorant, but to act as if you're the one who's always right, is DELUSIONAL.




I also respond hostile to asshats who attack me or others, As YOU do.




And uhhhh, do you ask yourself WHY people attack you? You think they just pick random IMDb members and attack them? No.

People attack you because of your actions here. Because they know who you are. Because they know your posts. Because they know how you usually behave. In short, it's ALL because of you. You did it to yourself.

So don't act like you're Mother Teresa, dude. It's hilarious, considering your comments. Instead, try to learn from your mistakes and try to be more respectful. That's what grown-ups do. Are you a grown-up?




You dont even bother to look beyond finding other negative posts and stop looking as thats all you want to find to give yourself "proof" of your preconcieved notion.



Nope. Most of your posts are if not entirely negative, then quite grumpy. It's just the way you are wired. You can't spin it. Don't try. The fact that you're basically 'THE STAR' of this board and people know who you are speaks for itself. And it's certainly not because of your NICE comments here. You can brand others as 'fanboys' all you want, that doesn't take away the fact that A LOT of times you act like a complete dick even when someone is simply asking a question. Even when you're not personally provoked, you act grumpy. Is that again because of the others, CGSailor?

No! This is ALL you.




You can't defend against what I say about the film, because it's true. so you attack me instead. making up bullsh!t about my being wierdly fascinated by it, etc...



Now you officially made me laugh. I can't defend this movie?? Really? Let me remind you of my thread here about the 15th ANNIVERSARY of Pearl Harbor. Let me remind you how you first replied to me there, in your classic negative way. Even though my thread was completely respectful and I was NOT attacking you or others! Let me remind you of ALL of the stuff I said in favor of the movie there. All of my arguments, all of the FACTS.

And what did you do in that thread? You didn't address a SINGLE thing from my long comments there. You didn't say anything meaningful. Nothing. Nada. You ran away and even when you came back when I bumped my thread you were again grumpy and hateful. Even though I didn't say anything about you when I made the bump.

So who's the dick here, pal?


Later on on the same thread you even said I was a troll. Remember that? That's how weak you got. You knew you got nothing to say that could 'defeat' my arguments because you knew facts were on my side. People like you keep reposting that Team America song, while the audience rating for Pearl Harbor here on this site keeps getting higher. Oh, the irony. By the way pal, you know why this song was made years after Pearl Harbor came out? Because Trey Parker had a personal beef with Michael Bay. Bay himself said it. So it's not even about the movie, they were just looking for ways to trash on Bay and the best way to do it was to attack his biggest movie at the time. Bet you didn't know that, did you?

Besides, these guys trash on pretty much every movie out there. There are songs, comedic bits, you name it. So don't act like the Pearl Harbor song has any merit whatsoever. Instead, try to discuss the movie properly.






You attack me personally because I state the facts about how badly this film treats the historical record.



You just don't get it. Dude! I attack YOUR BEHAVIOR. Why is it so hard for you to understand that?

I never claimed that this is a perfect movie. Hell, I have my own issues with it, it's not even my favorite Bay movie. But no sane person who knows a little bit about filmmaking can say that this is a badly shot/executed movie. No, it's actually a fantastically shot movie, very well executed, and some of Hollywood's biggest behind-the-scenes talent worked on it. And yes, of course it's not entirely accurate. What Hollywood movie is?? Look at ANY historical/war movie ever made and you will find out that there are people who question some of the content. So why you pretend that Pearl Harbor is the only flick that is historically NOT accurate?

Have you seen U-571? Do you know how historically innacurate that movie is? Ask any British person and you'll see. Pearl Harbor may not be accurate, but it's NOT in any way offensive toward the people who were there. And unlike U-571 it's not re-writing history.




I know how to argue logically. I can defend what I say.



Really? The way you 'argued logically' in my 15th Anniversary thread?

Seriously, you're not doing yourself any favors by acting this way. Besides, I AM the one who argues logically and I certainly can defend all that I say. Look up my post history, pal. Go ahead. And see for yourself.

You're not like me. At all.





But you are one of those irrational Zealot fanboys that cannot brook ANY criticism no matter how factual or deserved.
So you attack the critic.



You're not a critic. A critic, a GOOD critic, is someone who offers CONSTRUCTIVE CRITICISM. I say it again, CONSTRUCTIVE CRITICISM.

You don't do that. Like, at all! Why? Because you are a hater, clean and clear. Typical 'I'm right and all others are wrong' hater. You treat your opinions as facts and as you know that is THE most annoying thing a person can do.

And I'm certainly not a fanboy. A fanboy goes around and posts short stuff like 'HE DA BEST, SHE'S DA BEST, THE BEST MOVIE EVA'. I don't do that. I NEVER do that. As my posts clearly show, I know how to have a discussion, I know my facts, and I know very well what I'm talking about. I don't insert myself in discussions I know nothing about.

I know A LOT about Bay as a filmmaker and his films. I've been following his career for 20 years. That's right, 20 years. So I'm quite prepared to have discussions on that matter. You may be prepared to have discussions on the matter of historical accuracy and war-related topics, but in terms of actual filmmaking and cinema as a whole you can NEVER beat me. Trust me.

So don't act all superior on me. It ain't working.
