WTF? Obviously missing what's going on here with Prussian and Siam.
I was worried I had said something that had pissed off Mr. Prussian. Or maybe Pia pissed him off. Dena? Probably Stevie, even though he hasn't read a single fucking OWC entry...probably becuase he can't get over the fact my RAMS crushed his tattooed pathetic Niners.
A few more to read. So far, I have 2 considers and 3 recommends. And guess what? I gave my stinker a big old pass! Don't believe me, Dustin? Ask Don when it's all over, you little, tiny, bald person.
I read through these comments in regards to this twice and I couldn't quite figure out what was going. Nor do I have any idea what script Prussian is talking about. I try to read all the posts here, but obviously, I must have missed something here as well.
Seems to me someone didn't like the comments on his script and thinks members here have followers that just follow their lead with their comments. That's what I got out of this....
I wish there wasn't fighting here. That's what private messages are for, right. Haha. I jest.
I agree with one point though. It's about reviews. I always write mine before I read others. It helps me stay focused. I don't worry about opposing views. That's art, right. And occasionally I feel embarrassed or like an ass when my opinion is opposite the majority. But sometimes a different interpretation sparks me to read that script again. So I see some positives in review before you read other people's.
It'd be cool if you could only read reviews after your posted one. Like it would somehow unlock. I'm not too tech savvy so maybe this is super hard to do. Just a thought.
It sucks to get a negative review. I get it. I'd say try and understand the negativity. You never know it might help somehow.
And that, good readers, is the quote of this OWC. Now if I only knew what script he was talking about.
Yes, me 13!
BTW, I did not say at any time anything about shitting and/or eating beans, so maybe for once, I am not to blame? That would be nice...and sweet...and cool...to eat...IT'S HALLOWEEN, BABY!!!!
... while being kind of hilarious at the same time.
Yeah, it is. After a while I've seen it with humor.
@Pia and Bert
There's no need to delete a comment, don't do it, it's freedom of speech and it has already been modified anyway.
Also, it wasn't the point why I've brought something on the table at all.
Why I had to say something; it's about the following run of events.
1. let's say someone didn't like my script
2. they took their opinions to this "guess who" thread.
At this point I never would intervene. I swear I wouldn't. It's an adult game somehow, a hard game.
At 3 I do (and maybe only today): Suddenly my script gets positive feedback, I'm not sure how positive, but it broke with the negative vibe and people start to see it from another perspective. Now, those peops came again to my thread and take another influence, and I don't think "they're coming for the script's best"
For me, that last step is a bit too crazy. Just for me. That's me. It doesn't offend me, but it's too crazy, only the last step. No, too crazy. And so I brought it all onto the table.
I won't regret it. Still, I'm going to delete all the other stuff I wrote here. I don't feel comfortable with it myself now. So, don't worry about me. I'm doing enough things and don't want to judge that way I did here. I'm not angry about anyone, not AsfarasSiam or anyone else.
My apologies for turning this thread into a Vomitorium; it was never was my intention.
Alex,
My previous comments were completely unwarranted, immature, and condescending. Please feel free to spam my inbox with messages of how much of a complete asshole I am... I deserve it.
These OWCs are always sort of a rough and tumble event. I thought this one went smoother than most of them. I think some people might be reading deeper into posts than needed.
I don't think anyone here has a big following and other members just follow their lead as far as reviewing goes.
Me personally, I have read mostly scripts where I knew the writer, but my comments were completely void of any favoritism. In fact, one of my favorite writers got a diss from me.
Sometimes, people like our scripts, sometimes not. I never think it's for personal reasons.
Having said that, if I read insulting comments to the writer like the one mentioned above, I would've asked the reader to edit their comment or delete it. When I got this prestigious job, all I was told was that no personal insults were allowed.
I think it's good we argued with each other, speak to each other. At the end of the day I'm responsible for the stuff I'm saying and I behaved like an asshole.
