    It is not funny. It goes against all I believe in as a Canadian.

    Do you have to start a fight over everything? Why can’t you just let it go once in a while instead of being confrontational over every last thing?

    I am not Canadian and did not submit the item posted above at 1:01 PM. It seems pretty clear to have been the work of Mark/bicycle bob/The Woods/et al. Because emasculated shitheads like that just don’t know when to stop.

    Is there a need for foul language here? You’re talking about movies here. There is no need for the profanity you spew on a daily basis.

    I am Canadian. Please stop the lies before I start a lawsuit against America, Terrence and Phillip, and the movie industry.

    The 5:42 PM posting was not submitted by me. I will never allow falsely identified statements to be attributed to me. Is that how you plan to destroy this website, Mark – By filling it up with nothing but your distinct brand of garbage?

    Boys… please!
    It would be nice not to have to referee. PD can speak for himself, but please, if you feel the need to satirize, call yourself NotPeppersDad or something like that…

    What the hell? NONE of those postings about were made by me. I hadn’t even clicked on this thread until this morning, and this is the kind of stuff I see! I really am starting to think about legal action – no more threats! I have called my lawyer. He is a goat, and I pay him by licking his balls.

    I did not place the disgusting 6:19 AM posting here.
    It’s very revealing how, even when the word come from up high (David Poland), these SOBs simply cannot cease and desist.

  15. Mark says:
    January 17, 2005 at 2:42 pm

    Oh no. Lawsuit time!

  16. PeppersDad says:
    January 17, 2005 at 2:56 pm

    What lawsuit? How many times do I have to say it: THERE’S NO FUCKING LAWSUIT. Just because I have at times pointed out the unlawfulness of some of your childish behavior does not mean I am taking any legal action.
    Again, when you mock the protections historically afforded by the law since the dawn of our system of justice, it speaks volumes about your upbringing, psychological state, and your venal Republican values.

  17. PeppersDad says:
    January 17, 2005 at 3:13 pm

    I will sue all of you for punitive damages. The Liberal court system will let my opinions prevail. Down with the Constitution.

  18. PeppersLawyer says:
    January 17, 2005 at 3:14 pm

    I will be calling people to the stand soon as the trial starts. PeppersUncle, PeppersGrandma, PeppersBoyfriend will all be character witnesses.

    Who are these people? Isn’t there a way to prevent them from posting here?

  20. PeppersDad says:
    January 17, 2005 at 4:03 pm

    I did not submit the 3:13 posting. Obviously, it seems that Mark did.
    The juveniles who continuously post sneering comments about the legal issues I’ve raised in the past have no comprehension that prohibitions against libel and identity theft have nothing to do with liberal or conservative ideologies. These laws date back to the origins of our legal system, the English Common Law that even strict constructionists have no quarrel with.
    But because these oafs are mind-snatched from the Republican pod pool, they have nothing but contempt for the law in general nor common decency. So they proudly wind up as Nixon’s Watergate henchmen, Reagan’s Iran-Contra team, the Florida election bureau, the Enron board, the KKK, etc.
    And yes, Stella’s Boy, there is a way to prevent them from posting here. Among other things, Mr. Poland can be a responsible adult and require some bona fide registration, thereby causing these belligerent goons to think twice before posting such hate-filled trash in public. Too bad if that’s an inconvenience. Other blogs do it, and only the worst blogs have this sort of ongoing problem.

  21. PeppersDad says:
    January 17, 2005 at 7:05 pm

    I did not post 4:03pm either. I will have to sue the internet police now too.

  22. PeppersDad says:
    January 17, 2005 at 8:53 pm

    For the record, I did not submit the 7:05 posting. As long as David Poland allows people to submit fake postings under my name and e-mail address, I am going to have to post these corrections. Don’t blame me, blame them.

  23. Stella's Boy says:
    January 17, 2005 at 8:57 pm

    I feel for ya Pepper. This is ludicrous. I can’t even tell who’s you and who’s an impostor anymore.

  24. PeppersDad says:
    January 17, 2005 at 9:24 pm

    I did not post that at 8:51pm. This is not my beautiful house.

  25. Stella's Boy says:
    January 18, 2005 at 3:44 am

    Hey, Pepper – you wanna make out?

  26. bicycle bob says:
    January 18, 2005 at 6:56 am

    How quickly we forget about Brad and Jen…

  28. PeppersDad says:
    January 18, 2005 at 3:02 pm

    If you continue to bring up Brad I will have to include him in my lawsuit. As a co-plaintiff.

  29. Mark says:
    January 18, 2005 at 7:11 pm

    Pepper, you ever hear of the word “relax”?

  30. PeppersLawyer says:
    January 19, 2005 at 1:51 pm

    If you insist on telling my client, The Peppers, what to do and where to do it, I will have to include you and your heirs in the lawsuit that we are filing on behalf of democracy everywhere. You have been warned.

  31. Mark says:
    January 19, 2005 at 3:06 pm

    I am waiting for the papers to be served by Peppers.

“I don’t really think, Sean, that you need to know about my various sexual liaisons. Or that anyone else needs to. I did write about them. I filled a hundred pages of Moleskine notebooks with my one-night stands, my affairs. But I decided they didn’t belong in a professional memoir. First of all, these are real people we’re talking about. Many of them were enjoyable. Some were abject failures. My wife said to me when she read the pages, ‘Of what purpose is this in a memoir? Of what purpose is this other than to titillate?’ The point is, I never see them. It’s because I have nothing in common with them, frankly. And probably didn’t at the time. I could not provide a sensible reason why I married these women. The thing is, in the case of my marriages, it takes two people to fuck up a marriage. It wasn’t simply the fault of these women that I lost interest in them and realised they were insignificant relationships. Which is how I look at them right now–as being insignificant. I see them as blips.”
~ William Friedkin On Cutting Interviewers Off At The Sass

“I have to imagine from Mr. Spielberg’s point of view, the paradigm shift in the 1970s was just the new “normal,” a “halcyon era” from which we are straying in the 21st century–because theatrical exhibition is tenuous (as it has been since the 1940s), the home video market has dried up and people are watching pirated movies on their phone. Spielberg’s coming-of-age era was for him the halcyon period that the 21st century “implosion” will cause to go “crashing into the ground.” But he is wrong. The market for movies is actually diverse and highly segmented–although from the top-down movie industry vantage point and media punditry you would not think this to be true.  Would we really mourn for Mr. Spielberg or ourselves if Lincoln would have been made for cable or had played on public television?  Is it bad for humanity that cable television is creating wonderful, resonant stories in long-form series that people want to watch at home on TV (or streamed onto their computer)? I don’t think so, but it is a paradigm shift and it might affect people’s theatrical moviegoing habits. Televisions in people’s homes have had that effect for seven decades–it is not a new phenomenon. As Art House cinema impresarios we need to focus on what WE can do at our theaters and in our communities. It is not productive for us to fret over what pundits say or about what well-meaning filmmakers like the Stevens–Spielberg and Soderbergh–say. We should fret about what we can do in our communities. What we can do to support filmmakers.”
~ From A Response By Russ Collins, CEO, Michigan Theater – Ann Arbor And Director, Art House Convergence, To Mr. Spielberg
