Well, it appears that I have struck a cord with a few of you. It appears my sarcastic take on ghostbusters three was taken… differently than I had anticipated. No matter, however I will defend my claim.
In response to Kingpin who said the following:
“You're kidding…right?”
Yes. I was.
"Don't you realise the things actors have to go through to get into big budget movies? Do you even have any professional training as an actor?"
Actually I do realize the things actors have to go through. I have been taking theatre classes and participating in shows for over eight years. To confirm that I am on the right track I have been given awards and scholarships to continue my education in theatre. This by no means makes me a credited actor, but I have the talent and the intelligence to have a shot. I'm also positive that I have a better understanding than yourself on the subject of how hard it is it become a actor, nonetheless star in a big budget movie.
Now for my personal favorite. Venkmanfan49. Your nuggets of wisdom resonate through my mind as I write a response to your claims. LetÂs go over this step by step
“They always cast guys with the name of one of the characters in as the part. ”
First of all I donÂt understand what you are saying. I know it was your attempt at sarcasm but I fail to comprehend it. Maybe its the last part of your sentence where you boast the following:
“in as the part.”
And then there is this:
"I mean even if your dad's name is Ray and yours is Peter you're definatly in!! That's the way Hollywood works."
Thank you.
Now my favorite. This is by far the winner:
“PS- This guys an A-1 Nut Job”
Ahh yes, I love being called an A-1 nut job by a man who is wearing a six foot cowboy hat and has an instant messenger name of mypantsfell49. He who also claims that Bad Boys is a great movie. The irony is ever so prevalent.
Then there is Doctor Venkman. Who grasp of the English language is stunning. I personally am not a very great writer. As I am the first to point out that I have made a few mistakes in this post alone. However, when writing one run on sentence I tend to try to make it as literate as possible. Lets take a look:
"Sadly enough, there are proabably lots of people with names consisting of, Peter, Ray, Winston, Oscar, maybe not Egon, your dad would have to idolize the movie to call you that, that were born in 1983 that think the exact same thing, and i agree, A-1 nut job seems about right."
Okay, lots of mistakes here. First of all, only Illiterate people can understand this by reading it only once. I myself, an above average reader had to read it multiple times to gather its pointless meaning. Lets separate this sentence into three complete thoughts so it is less confusing.
"Sadly enough, there are proabably ]lots of people with names consisting of, Peter, Ray, Winston, Oscar, maybe not Egon that were born in 1983 that think the exact same thing"
Okay, there is one thought, now for you second:
“your dad would have to idolize the movie to call you that”
And the third:
"and i agree, A-1 nutjob seems about right"
Now you managed to mash this into one mega sentence.
In response to your first thought I say that you are wrong. I don't believe it and it seems I'm the only person who has ever claimed that I should star in a movie because of my namesake.
In your second thought I say to you that it has nothing to do with my father. I noticed it as mere coincidence and my name, Peter, has no actual reference to the movie.
The third thought now has no credibility as even if you called me this to my face I would laugh because it looks as if you would screw it up. Even if you speak half as well as you write. On a side note I loved your location, Ecto Plasma Containment Unit, how clever.
Allright, now that my rant is over I can safely say that your warm welcome to the site has impressed me. I don't expect anyone to have the same sense of humor as my friends and me, but I thought it was clear through heavy sarcasm that I was kidding.
