Grumpy McGrumperpants goes to con

May 31st, 2007 by Dunc · 6 Comments

I admit to being throughly sick of the Star Wars main theme by the end of the con, but “A convention that almost killed Star Wars?” Okay! (Thanks, Bonnie!)

I am more than willing to believe that the cake was that bad. We just wrangled it, dude.

    Yeah, each to his own opinion, but the author’s biographical tag makes me wonder about his capacity for critical judgment:
    Robert Morast supports the Midi-Chlorian concept.

    C*ke aside, what panel was about Greedo shooting first? Did he only go to the opening ceremony and nothing else? He obviously didn’t catch the Clone Wars trailer.

    And all the talk of d-list actors? He misses the entire point of conventions like this. This is not about glorifying people, but a chance to hear their stories and say thanks for being part of something that means so much to me.

    I bet he loves Jar Jar too.

    All I could think of when I read his review was “Hey, the Jerk Store called, and they’re all out of YOU!”

    Wow. Talk about a negative attitude. Honestly. Which convention did he attend? I have never seen such a jovial mood at a Celebration before. People were having FUN!

    Who sucked the child out of this guy? He deserves to continue living in his boring, drab world.

    Another so-called journalist trying to make the story all about himself, truth be damned. Pathetic.

    Booo Hisss! (And I didn’t even attend C4!)

    Then, like a message from Yoda, The History Channel saved me.

    Hmmph. Okay. I guess we’ll let him live.

    For now…
