Forum rules
We once roamed the vast forums of Corona Coming Attractions. Some of us had been around from The Before Times, in the Days of Excelsior, while others of us had only recently begun our trek. When our home became filled with much evil, including the villainous Cannot-Post-in-This-Browser and the dreaded Cannot-Log-In, we flounced away most huffily to this new home away from home. We follow the flag of Jubboiter and talk about movies, life, the universe, and everything, often in a most vulgar fashion. All are welcome here, so long as they do not take offense to our particular idiom.
After I finished watching the new Maleficent trailer (I'll save the embed for the trailer thread), I read some of the comments. There were some doozies, but this was the one that really stood out for me:
ZephonT Lucifer wrote:SHAME ON YOU! SHAME SHAME SHAME SHAME! Walt Disney's memory has been soiled. How DARE you FUCKS call his vision a lie. When at least his work is actually in keeping with the REAL story. You bastards.
The user name suggests that there's at least some chance that the person is trolling. I couldn't get a good read on Ol' ZephonT by visiting the profile, so I dunno.
Whatever the case, I did enjoy the "REAL story" bit.
I tried to post the above about an hour ago, but our Internet was down. Since then, ZephonT Lucifer has edited the above comment. Now it reads thus: "Walt Disney did not tell a lie! He was LOYAL to the REAL fairytale! You fuckers."
YouTube RandomTashAnia responded to ZephonT with this: "They know. The film is a most probably going to be a prequel as to why she did what she did. It's not a re-telling. "
YouTube user RavenYoung responded with this: "It's called Maleficent, and it says 'find out the truth'. If you're smart, you'd put together that that means we're going to find out Maleficent's story. It's called 'Maleficent', not 'Sleeping Beauty,' so it's not a retelling of Princess Aurora's story."
All right. Gettin' good. Lots of stupid swirling about. ZephonT has a response for both of them:
"Here's the thing, Aroura pricks her finger IN THIS movie, she is laying asleep in THIS movie and the story centers around HER destiny - guess what that makes Walt Disneys hard work on the actual story? A LIE. When this movie is marketed as the TRUTH. There is no actual maleficent fairy tale - this movie is the actual LIE. It is the Anakin Skywalker to a story that had nothing wrong with it."
Then some other people tell ZephonT to relax. Here's what ZephonT says to that:
"Aroura NEVER meets Maleficent in the sleeping beauty story for there to be HER side of it. If you think this story is going to tell her story then it will be about those 16 years she spent LOOKING for Aroura - but it's NOT. It's a fucking Star Wars prequel. It is taking a classic, done by the founder of Disney - and perverting it for no good reason."
