Star Wars vs LOTR

[rufusthestuntbum]

Which fans are bigger nerds? I was leaning to lord of the rings, but on tuesday night i saw a bunch of star wars fans/virgins lined up outside HMV waiting to buy the DVD set. Now never mind that you could go into any store the next day and buy the thing with no line up, thats fucked up, but ok. The thing was seeing these nerds in person. There is no excuse for dressing like your favourite character just because the DVD is coming out. There was one guy about 35 wearing a star wars shirt that might have fit him in 1980 but now was so small that it looked sick around his pot belly. Its obvious he was saving it and only wearing it for special occasions. Do these people have a closet of costumes they bust out on halloween? It isnt a fetish or anything, most of them were clearly afraid of girls.
I am sorry, but if you have a costume of say a storm trooper or darth vader in your closet, you are never, ever, going to get laid. It reminds me of the people who line up a month b4 the movie phantom menace comes out to be the 1st to see it. Who cares? That movie sucked. You wasted a month of your life. So go home curl up in your star wars bedsheets, its more chicks for me.

[KyserSozay]

what about that guy who saw (one of the new ones ) the movie in new york and caught a flight to somewhere in europe, just so he could say he was the first to see it on 2 continents. what a waste of a plane ride, u already saw the fuckin' movie once, i could think of a lot better ways to spend a trip to europe (amsterdam anyone?), i mean who the fuck cares where u saw the movie, it was the same shitty movie here as well as there.

but ya i dont understand the whole dressing up thing, not even for a football game (for either of them). but hey different strokes for different folks, i guess.

ladies, would u date a guy dressed as a stormtrooper? I would hope u would hold out for a jedi knight, or at least a bubba fett..;)

To all sci-fi/fantasy nerds: IT'S FICTION! We are here, now. The world is currently in a very dire state of events, and you're obsessing over the details of a story some Hollywood writers put together to make money? Focus on the present, the here and now, the real world. Nobody ever made the history books for having watched Star Wars more times than anybody else. In fact, they probably died of morbid obesity.

[Bro DZ]

LoL
yeah, the hardcore trekkies and star wars fans are freakin losers with no lives. I enjoy the movies and I used to watch star trek, but i don't pray to idols of the emporer or shatner =oP those freaks that get all dressed up for the lord of the rings are losers too and should be lined up and executed publicly. Its as bad as the catholic church...

[smokey]

not all avid star wars fans r freaks or nerds why do pll generalize so much these days and besides star wars has been going since elvis was dead n no slags off his fanbase star wars was a film made well b4 its time which makes it so good n the storylines help too if u gonna pik on avid fans of anything make sure its avid fans of everything coz there will always be repercussions if u dont

peace

[sToNeDpEnGuIn420]

i agree i mean i love star wars im not gonna be one of those people tho, but im not gonna make fun of them or call them losers with no lives either, just because they do somethin different then you think is a life makes them have no lives? because ya ok so their life consists of doing stuff like that so what its still a life? and i remeber how being shy around girls was i think everyone at one point or another was like that, its ppl like you that just makes them lose more confidence in themselves sorry i hate the world and its hatred :mad:

[Bro DZ]

:)
sorry bro, but hatred is one of the only things thats kept me goin all these years. Pure, simple, unbridled hatred.

and dude, these guys don't have any confidence in themselves to begin with, else they wouldent try to live in fantasy land!!!

[MRB041]

I love star wars. I dont care. Its the best movie series ever.


May the Force Be With You

[Bro DZ]

:D :D
Didnt a grip of people in australia claim the force to be their religion er something? Like 70,000?

[sToNeDpEnGuIn420]

:D :D
Didnt a grip of people in australia claim the force to be their religion er something? Like 70,000?

now thats going to far...

[Bro DZ]

seriously! I saw it on Headline News LoL
I bet a grip of people claim that shit as their religion here in the states too :p

[Imotep]

yeah there was some movement to get jedi recognised as a religion. Heaps of people just put it on the census as a joke i think.

But never getting laid in a star wrs costume?
I think it was a REvenge Of the Nerds movie where the guys lays the hot chick dresssed as Darth vader.

whether they have any confidence at all or not it still doesnt give u the right to cuss em just coz of the way they live their lives.
when will ppl concentrate on their own lives instead of havin to cuss other ppl about theirs in order to make them happy
and u say they have no life

[smokey]

one thing to ad to the actual meaning of this thread yes ok some star wars fans where all the costumes n stuff
but give it a few years LOTR will be no different

[Button Basher]

Apparently, the religion thing was about a database on the net where you list your own religion that people sign their faith to and if it gets a high number of hits then it becomes official. Someone put jedi up on there and thousands of people signed it :D , still didn't become a religion mind.

Star Wars is bollocks :D !

[JohnnyBravo]

LoL

Its as bad as the catholic church...

What have you got against the catholic church???
Seems to me you know a lot about nothing. Its fucking idiots like you who will only talk shite over the net, cos in the real world you'd get a good slappin.

[High phy]

Well when i was like 14 i used to go dressed up as anime characters to Comic Conventions and it was pretty fun WHEN I WAS A KID. so long to those days now. And your theory its damn wrong man, i do get laid. The silmarilion its my favourite book years before LOTR trilogy came.

I Love J.R.R. Tolkien and you can't tell either me or the Trekkies out there to live their lives as you would like them to. Imagine someone came and tell you: "OMFG, you waste totally your life by smoking pot sometimes a month! You're such a loser! Youre never gonna get laid in your life!"

Sorry mate but it sound like youre some sort of prejudice fellow.

[sawleaf]

Wow I can't believe nobody has brought up Everquest. These fans are so nuts, they live their lives in an online world! There are people who devote their lives to playing and advancing a fictional character. That's what I have against video games really. I mean they are fun, but after you beat a game, you feel like you have accomplished something. But what have you really accomplished? Have you imporved yourself? It doesn't amount to much in reality. Not against games really, but to make them your life is nuts if you think about it.

Sorry mate but it sound like youre some sort of prejudice fellow.I agree. Even though I don't understand how people can get into these things so much that they would dress up and wait in line for hours, the point is that they are not hurting anyone. They're doing something they enjoy and not harming a thing in the process. What's wrong with that? I'm sorry that you don't agree with their lifestyle, but like High phy said, there's probably a ton of people who would think you are a loser for what you do in your life.
Let them have their fun.

[Stingray]

I agree with smokey and High phy...who the hell are we to judge other people...and after all. don't we all smoke to escape the real world in some or other way...leave the people be and rather concentrate on your own way of life and the ones close to you...peace

[KillaBuzz]

yah man let em do wut they wanna do, y do yah care so much bout other pplz bizness? they aint hurtin u er anythin else like clevemire said so wut right do u have ta come an talk shit bout anyone? i cant beleive the amount ov inconsiderate cocksuckerz on the boardz lately...duznt make commin on here a good experience anymore.

[GHoSToKeR]

exactly, Cleve


whoever started this thread is saying they are losers because they do whatever, and they have no lives.. well whos the fuckin one bitchin about it anonymously to a load of people on a message board? if they 'have no life' for doing it, then you must have even less of a life for taking the time to complain about it.. different strokes for different folks, each to his own, however u wanna say it, leave them the fuck alone and go do something productive
oh, and i dont like the star wars films, before you ask.. i know your defence will probably be "go dress up like a stormtrooper you sad star wars freak" or something just as pointless, so im letting you know before you waste your time, i dont like star wars, but id rather be one of those "losers" than someone who spends their time judging other people because all they do is get fucked up every night and think theyre the fuckin big man, when really theyre lives are just as empty as the people theyre judging..

so in conclusion, SHUT THE HELL UP

[KillaBuzz]

rite on ghost

[clevemire]

if they 'have no life' for doing it, then you must have even less of a life for taking the time to complain about it..
Swish!

[Bro DZ]

You wanna give a good slapping mother**cker? gimme a palce and time and I'll put the smash on your bitcha$$, Bravo. I aint talking shit about anyone on this board, I'm voiving my opinion about this topic! And the Silmarillin was a tight ass book, so is everything written by Tolkien. Its too bad that bastard Jackson or whatever his name was had to mutilate the lord of the rings story to make a movie out of it.

so, who wants to go toes? I'll meet anyone any where in Nor Cal or So Cal, Else don't threaten me with your little slappin theory.

the entire point of a message board is to come give your opinion, not tell people how right and wrong they are. Get off your high horses and relax.

[sawleaf]

BroDZ, you need to calm the hell down and stop getting all pissy from internet posts. Challenging people to fights is ridiculous and probably a great way to get your ass banned.

[Bro DZ]

nice post about Lotr or star wars bud! If i gave a flying fuck I might pay u some heed, but i dont! :D

Anyone ever read any of the star wars novels? I've heard they are pretty good. I'm sure no body stands in lines for days to buy em though.

[gs8778]

I liked the original starwars movies, but all of the new ones blow. And I think peter jackson did a fine job of translating the books over to the big screen. Definitely not a "mutilation." To be honest, I liked the hobbit, but the books in the lotr tril were kind of slow. I've never read the starwars books though. Ever read the wheel of time series by robert jordan, or the song of ice and fire series by george r r martin? Should check em out.

[GHoSToKeR]

the entire point of a message board is to come give your opinion, not tell people how right and wrong they are. Get off your high horses and relax.First of all, by threatening people with violence you've inadvertantly proved my point..

Secondly, if you're such an advocate of Freedom Of Speech and Expression then why are you insulting people who enjoy different things to you?

Thirdly, what in gods name does Tolkeins books have to do with your arguement? As far as i'm aware, this thread was nothing to do with the actual movies/books, but about how 'lame' the fans are..

You're just another person who is afraid of whats different, so you either a) resort to violence or b) stir up shit like this, and try to make it/them look stupid so you can feel superior and secure...

So threatening people here will have no affect, it will probably get you banned, and makes you look slightly, if not EXTREMELY, pathetic.. For your own good, I suggest you shut the hell up

[Bro DZ]

Wow. I was talkin about the books because I was agreeing with another guys post about how he likes the books as well. And if you feel insulted, thats your bad cause I havent targeted anybody except the dude that thinks I need to be slapped, so get the hell off your goddamn high-horse. And the answer to your question should be quite obvious: I'm a very violent person. And I am obviously an advocate for free speech, I'm not telling anyone they are wrong, unlike some other people. I'm just giving my opinion, witch obviously cannot be respected. Do you see any words in this post that could possibly insult you, huh? relax, and stop trying to tell me I'm wrong.

[Lulu]

Wow open a window in here
the testosterone is choking

I can tell what kind of person you are so easily.. all i had to do is look at your profile.. "East of faggot ridden hell" piss off

You better watch it too, that little ghost is pretty close to the ghostbusters logo. I will take the time to complain about anything i want. Same as the idiots who drive up and down my block and crank tunes all nite, they have no life, but i have less of a life for complaining about? Fuck you! And who said i get "fucked up" every night?
I am trying to help people here. I like star wars, but if my kid came home with a stack a magic cards, or some other dungeons and dragons type shit i would sit him down and warn him that he is going to have to be careful to make that part of life a dirty little secret. You want your kid to be like the "tron guy" on jimmy kimmel? Its ok to have star wars memorabilia, but you hide it when girls come over. Become a trekkie or a fat anime loving kid you give up sex, and that is an empty life. And they become picked on. These are the kids who go columbine, i am trying to help. So in conclusion i think you are a nerd who smokes weed, dont start dealing, those fat kids always get robbed.




Well when i was like 14 i used to go dressed up as anime characters to Comic Conventions and it was pretty fun WHEN I WAS A KID. so long to those days now. And your theory its damn wrong man, i do get laid.



Uh no that proves my theroy. You quit that shit, go to a comic convention, look at the hard core "comic book guy" types that hang out there. That is a very very high virgin ratio. Nothing wrong with that. Some people fear girls, like sci fi geeks, i dont advocate beating them up, just mocking them.

[GHoSToKeR]

youre an idiot.. i dont even know where to start...

your theory is this..

1) Mock people who like things that you dont
2) dont let your kid do what he/she wants, because they wont get laid
3) people who enjoy things other than the things you enjoy never have sex
4) its not ok to use violence.. but its ok to "mock them"

well, for your fucking information, verbal bullying can be just as damaging, if not more so, than physical bullying

if these are the kind of values youre gonna teach your kid, then i truely feel sorry for them

and as for saying "these are the kids who columbine"... dude, i dont even think i have to say anything... anyone with half a brain or any common sense will know what i mean

[apsinthion]

I just don't understand why people get so angry on these forums EVERYBODY has the right to an opinion wether you feel that they are sad of not.

Those who feel angry need to take a look at themselves........ Your staring at a computer monitor going red in the face with anger.

Peace.

So you'd discourage your child from being who they would want to be? Now that's the kind of thing that makes columbine kids. Kids whose fathers are shameful of them. Way to go, dipshit.

im not gonna post any replies to this guy or any of the other *cough*pricks*cough* on this thread, coz theyre so narrow minded that they wont ever think theyre wrong.. and IF they ever did think they were wrong, theyd probably just get mad and try to steal our lunch money

The reason I got pissed off with you is because this thread was nothing to do with religion, yet you had to make a ignorant remark about the catholic church, without considering anyones religion. I'm not a big church goer or anything, its just that there's a seperate forum (spirituality) for all that kind stuff, which also says 'please respect others while talking about religion', which you obviously did'nt think about doing here. Please go there with your religous opinions.

In my opinion theres hundreds of people with conflicting beliefs that come on these message boards....Therefor anything to do with politics and religion is a recipe for disaster.

Oh, and please don't think Im bowing down to your aggressive attitude, cos if I did live within distance of you I probably would give you a bit of fisty cuffs.

Just 1 more thing..."I'll put the smash on your bitcha$$"...What sort of language is this, man speak proper it just makes you sound like a p[lastic gangster.

And to get back on topic I liked both films but L.O.T.R is more fresh in my mind so I suppose that would have to win.

Maybe if I watched Star wars again I'd change my mind.

I dunno.

[OceansOfSound]

Opinions are only as good as the facts you have to back it up..Objective fact says you can still be a Star Wars nerd and get laid. Too much hate man...
