Wojo 2,456 Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 Guilty as charged. I was going to ask what people called grammar Nazis before WWII, but it turns out the term itself isn't even twenty years old, first noticed in usenet forums. Though the terms Soup Nazi or fashion police may have lent inspiration as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uni 307 Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 Lemme tell you, working in an airport is a veritable breeding ground for pet peeves. I can't stand it when people get off an escalator and then stand and pause to look around and see where they're going next. They're completely oblivious even to the possibility that people are landing behind them.There are others, but Brian Regan lays it out much better than I could (especially the last bit about the moving sidewalks): Guilty as charged.And that's fine. There's nothing wrong with wanting another person to communicate properly. The "grammar Nazi" reply is the equivalent to saying "let me live in world of absolute fucking ignorance, please". Ofcourse, but when doing it on a forum of which a large amount of it's membership includes people for who English is NOT their first language, it can come of as beligerent.Yep.

It's the new pan and scan.I've known these snooty film student types who think they're King Shit and that orchestral film scores are meant to make the dummy masses respond to a film a certain way. Isn't film or art meant to evoke, provoke and manipulate? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nightscape94 967 Posted October 4, 2014 Author Share Posted October 4, 2014 It's the whole package. Editing, acting, lighting, camera angles, music. They're all designed in such as was as to touch on certain emotions. I never understood why people complain about a movie being "manipulative". Of course it is. Now, not all directors are Steven Spielberg, and not all composers are John Williams, but every film, even documentaries, have a point of view and try to, on some base level, create an emotional feedback loop.
