New movie-making fun of greeks??

[ASTalumna06]

hey hey, kids... new rule. No more talk about the movie until it comes out. We're fighting over nothing here. If I wasn't Greek and I came into this blog, I WOULD think negatively about Greek life because you're all at each other's throats about a stupid movie that NO ONE has seen yet. That's like criticizing a food before you've even tasted it.

Be happy :-)

Why can't those of us who are eager to see the movie talk about it?

We're grown...and happy. And we don't need your stupid rules.

You and these nonGreeks don't have to come back to this thread. But we will continue to post as we choose.

Sound good?

We can and will.

If you had more than 14 posts, I'd listen to you. Okay maybe not. Gotta love n00bs who like to play Judge.

If a non Greek came and saw this bickering, I don't care. If they form a negative opinion because of this thread, so what? It's a waste of time caring about what people think, anyway.

When does this movie open again? Woohoo Beverly D'Angelo!

Will you be the first to see it and start the worship thread?

Maybe I'll go see it by myself (none of my peoples would see a quirky comedy in the regular theater) in a week or so.

While I have no reason not to love Beverly D'Angelo, I have yet to be a part of the D'Angelo Love Renaissance.

(Or perhaps we can't call it a Renaissance because it was never gone?)

Can someone poetically explain the D'Angelousity or D'Angelicness?

I mean, I did enjoy National Lampoon's Vacation. I have a foundation.

wow, so... evidently telling people to be happy is the wrong thing to do now-a-days.

And apparently because i've made less than 20 posts on some random website, I'm not allowed to have an opinion.

so... everyone hate each other! woot.

You're grossly oversimplifying your initial post. Don't kid yourself.

look, half the people in here are talking about how this movie is making Greeks look bad. How do they know? They haven't seen it?

Half the people are saying that it doesn't, and that it looks funny, which is making the first half offended. And this second half hasn't seen the movie either.

I simply said that everyone's fighting over something that they know very little about.

Sarcasm is clearly a lost art.

Who's fighting? Are we not on a discussion board?

Yes it is when a random pops in to moderate the discussion.

And don't backpeddle like you were just being sarcastic.

[ASTalumna06]

Wow. Do you seriously think I was pissed off, and came in here to act as mom to make everyone stop talking?

Why are you taking this so seriously? If my opinion really didn't matter to you, you wouldn't be responding over and over to everything I say

The fact is, people are saying the movie portrays Greeks in a bad way when they haven't seen it yet. Same stuff everyone else has said. Move on.

I learned a long time ago that sarcasm doesn't work at all online -- message board, AIM, etc. etc.
