Description I rarely do stuff like this, but I can't stand it anymore. This is a representation on how I've been lately. If you haven't already figured it out, it's my current feelings toward the controversy surrounding the upcoming Big World, Big Adventures. I originally was just gonna ignore it and not let the heat get to me, but lately it's been getting harder and harder to escape seeing posts from both sides fighting each other, and its killing me. In fact, it's gotten to the point to where I now don't wanna see either side come out on top!(*sigh* insert your own forced reference to the current political climate here ) And it gets worse, it's so bad that it makes me NOT wanna see the movie the moment it comes out, if at all. Not because I think the movie's gonna be bad, but the controversy is now making me feel like I'd be watching it out of obligation instead of genuine interest, which I believe should not be the main motivation to see a movie(unless you're a professional film critic who does it for a living, and thus doesn't have that luxury). Oh, and this is also coming from someone who does not believe in the over-exploited notion of "there's no such thing as bad publicity"(shoot me). Plus, whether or not the film turns out to be good or bad, all can see is one side smugly say "told ya" and thus leading to more fighting for a while, til like the end of the year. I'm sorry if this upsets you in any way, but this has beaten me down so hard that it's driven to this level if I'm to stay neutral on this. Maybe if everyone shuts up by the end of the year, then I might see the film(at least then I would be doing it out of interest rather than obigation). If not, well I guess that's how it has to be.

Dan: Yeah, I was originally on the side that was willing to defend it and give it a watch, but now that side has gotten just as bad as the other so I don't wanna see either side win.

Fletcher: Agreed. No matter where I go I hear *mocking* "Big World, Big Adventures is crap don't watch it" and I just feel like saying. For Baldwins sake. Stop acting like 2 year olds and grow up and act your age. If you don't like the movie you don't have to watch it.

Dan: This has all made me NOT wanna see the movie. Not that I think it's gonna suck, which doesn't really matter at this time, but because if I do the moment it's released, I feel like I wouldn't be seeing it out of genuine interest, but obligation. I believe that shouldn't be what drives me to see a movie, unless I was a professional film critic who does it for a living. Also, keep in mind that this is coming from someone who doesn't support the overly-exploited notion of "there's no such thing as bad publicity".

Maybe after the dust settles and both sides shut the frick up, I'll go see it. At least then I'd seeing out of my own interest. If they don't, well I guess that's how it has to be.
