Star Trek: Nemesis Trailer to Premiere Tonight
savagexp writes "Dark Horizons is reporting that the trailer for the next Star Trek movie will premiere tonight on Entertainment Tonight and via the official website tonight at 7:30 EST." Makes me wish I could stomach
ET, or at least had some real bandwidth. Hopefully it'll get placed in
front of some of the movies coming in the next few weeks (maybe MiB2?)
thing about that is James Cameroon is not directing. And Arnold is fat and lazy...
Hey, I'm a clueless Windows(tm) user, but I wanna whine about QuickTime too! Come on, guys! It sucks! Yeah!
meh.
Okay, this really deserves a "Are the moderators on crack?!?" post. WTF... insightful?!
And I will continue to voice my irritation at people who pick two individuals out of a group, point out their differences of opinion, and call the group a bunch of hypocrites for disagreeing.
I'm not referring to two posters out of a community, I'm referring to two editors working for a corporation with an editorial policy. If two members of the Free Software Foundation, the EFF, or what have you engaged in this the organization in question would be accused of hypocracy, and rightly so.
Slashdot, as an organization, is incredibly hypocritical in their stance vis-a-vis the Entertainment Industry, and while today it may be michael and timothy rallying the troops while hemos and commander taco pimp for Hollywood, that (a) wasn't true a few short years ago when, particularly around the time the DeCSS thing first blew up and (b) isn't relevant anyway. Having a specialist in one's organization who concentrates on one aspect, and another who concentrates on the opposite, doesn't make the organization in question, in this case the Slashdot editors (and arguably, to some degree, VA, though I would't personally take things that far), any less hypocritical, or despicable, in their behavior.
So get used to being irritated, because I'm not going away.
