Dude......you are taking everything I say wayyy too literally. The flak jacket would not be worn with the intention of trying to intimidate people. I meant it as a nerdy comment dressing up as a military officer or something. It was nothing more than a joke.

You seriously need to relax. The people that think they are above everyone else can just keep talking. We all know what the truth is and the truth of the matter is they paid $20 just like everyone else to support the show and have some fun.

These boards are so dramatic.

Anyways, that's all I have to say. I'm outta these boards and this community. Way too much drama.

Thanks for the fun premieres and whatnot, but I can't deal with this garbage. I'm not going to keep paying to support a show that just gives all you guys ammo to try and be the next big wig at the following premieres.

I hope you all had fun at the premieres. I won't be attending any more of them, and this thread is a prime example of why.

Cheers

Bahahah how very topical of you.

But yeah, people should expect other people to be stupid. That way they'll never expect anything that won't occur 9 out of 10 times, and anything unexpected will be pleasant. It's a good way to lead life. This all does kind of seem over-dramatic to me too... as has been said, mob mentality + fans = chaos. No point in getting so indignant about it, next time chill out and life will be cool.
I think... regardless, as time progresses the age level will increase. The times will a change. So just wait it out...

Seriously though...He shouldn't take it personally i was simply discussing a mindset that notable group of people has taken on. It really don't have much of a problem with the crowd at all. It was the elitist mindset some people were taking on: JUST because they were in the GA. I was discussing that and the fact that a lot of these people are in denial about it.

Small note:

Bellmore Premiere: I believe the theater holds about 500 people. We had perhaps 100-200 show up total. Very orderly, only one line, very quiet, well-behaved.

The pushing was pretty much caused by one group of guys on the left side of the entrance that started yelling and pushing.


Sounds like they deserved a old fashioned ass kicking and no one stepped up to plate.

I didn't take anything here personally. This is a forum full of people that I could really care less what they have to say about me or anyone for that matter.

I just really wish the people on this forum would stop being such high and mighty wannabes. You think because you have been here longer than others it gives you some kind of insight as to how the world should work.

Trust me if the world was run by people on this forum, it wouldn't last long. You'd have 500 people trying to compete to be the boss when in actuality no one here is any better than anyone else.

I don't care who you know, how you helped out, or whatever you've done to make you feel you deserve any more than any other fan. Simply put, you are all FANS nothing more nothing less.

kthx bye

You need to understand that calling me Esca / calling me any kind of name in general is just as childish as the people you are refrencing.

Esca was a good guy who left the forums because of elitests and jerk off kids who think they have some insight into life, when they have absolutely no life experience.

Mummy and daddy still pay for their tickets, and gas and food and whatever else it takes to get them there.

Anyways whatever I don't quite care for name calling doodie head...

Sounds like you guys had a bunch of idiots up there in Canada. We had a great crowd in New York. People were freindly and excited. We all waited in line to get our tickets. It turns out that the preorder tickets had to wait in line longer to get in than the people who just showed up (like myself). We all waited in the same line outside the theater, but when we got inside, the ticket window was for preorders and a guy at the door sold tickets. EVERYONE at the show was respectful of other people and genuinely wanted to see everyone have a great time. And people say New Yorkers are mean people. LOL

And according to the stars of the show, our little crowd of about 150-200 were louder than the crowd of 800 in Toronto. NY FTW!

I also was pretty disappointed at the premier. I mean, its hard to enjoy the eps when you can hear anything cause of all the fucking kids yelling at the god damn screen. I don't know about anyone else, but I surely don't need 15 year olds commentary. ESPECIALLY when all there doing is yelling about boobies and weiners. Maybe thats the problem? Perhaps the majority of fans are just immature kids? A few times throughout the night I literally had to tell kids to shut the fuck up!!! I'll be damned if I drove all the way from fucking INDIANA, TWELVE FUCKING HOURS only to have a handful of kids talk over the entire new episode. Its nonsense. I think in the future the cinema should have ushers throwing people out for disruptive behavior during the actual screening of the episodes. SO FUCKING WHAT if they replay past episodes who you think everyone has seen? I had two friends with me who knew nothing of PP whom I wanted to introduce to the series and they sure as hell didn't get anything from ep 11 or 12. UGH! Frustrating. I'd like to return to Toronto for premiers in the future, but its things like this that make me second guess the decision.

I feel ya Spazz. I was on a Greyhound for 12 hours, coming from Cincinnati, Ohio to Toronto. I almost strangled some teenie-boppers and tweeners that butted in line and were being general asses while stuff was going on. Fortunately I managed to snag a seat in the 3rd row on the far left of the screen (when facing it), and while I was surrounded by people in their mid to late teens they were blessedly quiet.

I think I was the n00b whom made a few loud and stupid comments in my section about a few items (Was that the Kane edition of CnC3? Or just the standard release?). >,>. But for the most part I was quiet, or tried to be.

I feel you, man. Some guy right behind me kept yelling "BUTTSECKS" with every scene with Tagi and Jer in ep 12. EVERY SINGLE ONE. I felt like just standing up randomly so that I would block his view, but then I realised thta other people were behind HIM. So, I just decided to take it.. he stopped at the actual premiere.
I have the better micro.

Again with the grading grub and the fact that you are a hypocrite. You were just saying how you should be a bouncer, a bunch of you were, JUST because you are in the GA. Look have some self respect: Either admit you were wrong or be stubborn, dont change your opinion and act like you didnt. I'm sorry, but werent you just saying how...

See what I'm trying to say here?

Wow, Esca might be a good guy, but he acted like a dramatic jackass on these forums, he pulled some elitist bullshit, and blatantly insulted the community.

Look at this thread.

Some of the people i respect the most in this community said it how it was: Esca was a dramatic elitist.

You arent acting any bettter.

I'm not very happy to say that I was extremely displeased with the premiere today.. The cast and crew, did and outstanding job with their planning, preparation and presentation of the entire premiere, an obvious evolution from any others I've attended. Yet I'm still VERY agitated, at us, YOU, the fans.

I find that despite the crew's and staff of bloor cinema itself best efforts, the fans outmatched them tonight with pure illogical stupidity. The non-preorder ticket line, as soon as they finished buying, didn't go the back of the line or to a saved spot where they should be going(cause y'know, there's a POINT in pre-ordering! They just CROWDED in front of the line, right at the doors, past the barrier set by the crew.
Agitating about the first 50 people in the line, the barrier was pushed further and further forward and the entire entrance was filled with uncomfortable fans.

They were told to line up in an orderly fashion to get in the theater, but they ignored this, the crew decided just to, well, open the doors, the most violent stampede or retards swarmed into the theater, enraging employee's of bloor cinema leading them to screaming the line into order. Many poeople were crushed, pushed, bombarded or trampled in this particular event and I just felt that pure pwnage fans have once again earned themselves a bad name.

Once we got in I felt that the entire fanbase just seemed to be getting more and more rude and inconsiderate every time I came to a premiere.
Half way through episode 12, they ran into some trouble and the color crapped out, there was NOTHING that could be done, instead of being considerate, this enraged a lot of fans and the crowd just seemed unorderly at times... You guys are supposed to be FANS of these kind people, is there any room for any kind of respect here?! I suppose not.. we watched the new ep in B&W and I for one did not miss the color and think the episode was just as good without it, if not better, I hope that doesn't spoil anything.

The crew then announced they'd be heading up to the upper level for autographs and whatnot.. what happens? The second people get up they CROWD and barricade them on stage and well alright I guess they're just gonna do their stuff right there on stage. I talked to as many people as I could and tbh, the crew seemed a bit stressed.

So, once again, despite their best efforts, the crew and the staff at bloor cinema, with some outstanding preparation and organization this time around, the fans manage to ruin that, all at no one's expense but the people serving them making this EVENT possible.
Congratulations.

I personally only wish it were humanly possible to think of something to keep this from happening again, but I don't believe there is, people just wanna do whatever the hell they want, and not at their own expense.

Please, anyone attending a future premiere either this tour or the next far down the line, try to make this more of an enjoyable event for the people making it possible for you, it's the very least you could do.
</rant>



I was just going to say that I wholeheartedly agree... while I was one of those "blessedly quiet teens" (hopefully) that was sitting next to Aeros, I sat on teh aisle side of the third row. And could not believe how crazy ppl were getting... even playing ds' and psps throughout the first two repeat eps (i counted 6 ds's and 2 psps while walking back from the n00b store)... Regardless of what is playing or going on, ppl just need to remember that everyone is there to see the eps and meet the cast... not listen to u yell @ the screen...and while i traveled from colorado to be there, i had a blast still, but the eps 13 premiere was still kind of disappointing to me... esp. becuz evry1 wouldn't stop bitching about the B&w due to the faulty projector... seriously, i still wanted to hear the eps...atleast

I said what I said to help out the people complaining about people pushing and shoving. I'm nothing more than a fan that will speak up for people too afraid to. There were people getting fucking trampled by people like you I am assuming rushing the door and trying to run down to the front aisle because you think it's fucking owed to you.

We all paid the same amount to be there. So shut your face, stop making me look like an ass hole. I said I would try and help keep the line orderly. I didnt say I was going to come break some heads, or start a fucking fight. Shut your face! Stop taking what I am saying and twisting it to suit your story about elitest bull shit.

Whatever man I'm outta here this is horse shit. You are one of the elitest little bitches that makes this forum dumb. Stop acting like you've never said something that was taken the wrong way before.
