Voice Post: That Sucks (a venting post)



I'm leaving this post, but the issue it was about has been resolved. Assumptions were made on several sides.

I wish I could listen, but my speakers aren't set up yet!!

It was vent (which has been transcribed).

We've patched things up.

All happy now, if a bit sheepish about the misunderstanding.

I HATE it when people do that.

Alas, it was all a big misunderstanding.

Man, that sucks!

FYI - I think "our CP's" was "RSVPs".

Oops!

Alas, all a big misunderstanding. Thanks for the sympathy though.

I saw it last night at 12:01 and I'd see it again tonight! I'm in L.A tho. That's kinda hard for either of us to travel just for a movie ("just" for a movie?! ::G::)

We saw it 2 weeks ago at a press screening and we did see it with friends tonight, but just seeing it wasn't the issue.

It was the perception of being ignored by our friends that set us off.

We feel a bit sheepish about the misunderstanding.

Ouch. :( My heart knows how that kinda thing feels.

[identity profile] johno.livejournal.com 2005-10-01 08:57 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, it kinda pushed some old buttons, which is a major part of why we reacted so strongly.

[livejournal.com profile] jemstone & I probably will not be seeing Serenity until Sunday, time & location TBD. I am also attempting to arrange a meetup of 2 different groups of people. I'll see how things go.

Enjoy, when you do see it!

We may do a Sunday Mattinee with a friend (probably Union Landing),
but more likely is a Saturday Midnight Madness at the Camera 12 in San Jose.

Don't know about you...

..but the movie left me very hollow.
Empty inside.

I swallowed a bug.

Sure would be nice if we had some grenades!

Re: I swallowed a bug.

[identity profile] johno.livejournal.com 2005-10-01 08:55 am (UTC)(link)
The grenades leave you feeling like you've fallen to pieces, not hollow.

Also, some bugs are good for you. Lots of protein.

It was a great ride and resolved some issues from the series.

What you may feel lacking is the character development. With a large cast and only 2 hours, most folks character development was miminal to non-existant.

the film was amazing. well worth the wait.
what did you think?

[identity profile] johno.livejournal.com 2005-10-01 08:46 am (UTC)(link)
Loved it.

Not perfect, but it was great ride, resolved some issues raised in the series, but leaves others to explore.
