Dear god. The wanking over The Last Airbender movie in katara_zuko and everywhere else on LJ today (o hai random comms suddenly paying attention to this fandom, wtf) is driving me nuts. How many posts are we going to have about "racefail" (which there WAS, yes, we've known for quite a while already) and "Ebert says it sucks" and "don't go see this, or else you're stupid".

Be aware now, if any of you tell me not to see it, simply because of what you've heard or you've seen it yourself and disliked it, I will remove you from my friendslist. I do not feel as though you are doing me a "favor" by telling me to believe something without having seen it with my own eyes first. Do me the courtesy of viewing it like those of you that have seen it have done, and I'll reserve my judgment of the film once I've managed to take it in for myself, not by second-hand info.

Apologies if this sounds harsh, but I have had just about enough of the self-righteousness of LJ, today.

It especially does when everyone who has an opinion (and we all know that proverb about what opinions are like) decides to make giant comm posts to accomplish nothing but a) wank about how bad the movie is, or b) tell others what they should and should not be viewing, or both.

It's at the point where people are saying this shit to people they don't even know, in comments of random people's journals.

I actually had someone on my flist, whose last post was in April of this year and last post before that was in 2007 come out of the woodwork to announce that she's joining the boycott. You've had nothing to say for the past three years and the ATLA movie racefail is what brings you back to LJ? Pardon me while I fail to take you at all seriously.
