: : you pretentious, condescending prick.
: Yes, all I am is a pretentious, condescending prick...
: One who does more for View Askew fans than everybody else here except for Kevin, but because I get sarcastic on this web board sometimes, why, I'm just such an asshole, huh?
: How do you like that MALLRATS DVD? Or the upcoming DOGMA one? Or the upcoming Vulgarthon 2000? Who here bent over backwards to try and figure out what went wrong with the CHASING AMY DVD? Who here goes out of his way over and over again to fill the fans in on Vieew Askew minutia, and filmmaking minutia- details that I spend YEARS researching and learning on my own. Do I tell people, "FIGURE OUT ALL THIS ASPECT RATIO STUFF ON YOUR OWN LIKE I DID!!!"? No- on MANY occasions, I've sat here and written VOLUMNS of text explaining things to the curious. But, because I sometimees get a little testy, that all doesn't matter.
: Yes, I am such a condescending prick.
: Go fuck yourself.
: Vincent
: P.S.- While a lot of my "wrath" on here is sarcastic, that "Go fuck yourself" is very sincere, asswipe.
I am new to this board, this is my second post to be exact, and I would hope that people on here would be alittle bit more respectful towards all the brilliant people behind View Askew, since it is these people who help Kevin Smith and help bring his vision to us. I own a DVD player, and I have to admit, Mallrats was the reason I bought this player(Matrix as well, gotta give respect where it is due) and I have loved every minute that Vincent has helped to bring to me. I am very interested in what they have to say about these movies in their commentary and everything else. They put in so much time and effort, that it only seems fair to watch EVERY SINGLE MINUTE on the dvd, cause it is worth it.
People, this man is not lying, he does put alot of time and effort in to this stuff, so lay off abit. You only get the respect that you give, so expect flack if you flack your mouth off.
