Spirited News & Observations II -- NGE/Baxter

[PhotoDave219]

Savages, great way to put it.

Since my only foray into journalism was HS yearbook, is cropping ok? Not being a jag, serious question. The more I think about it that could really change the context. Blurring, black boxing, that's seems black and white to me.

I hav no problem with it just as so it doesnt alter what youre communicating. Great example, there was an AP photo from Monday of a guy in a wheelchair from Boston. 90% of the time, I've seen it cropped in. The Atlantic ran the original crop and its quite the stomach turning, graphic photo. Cropping in doesnt change anything in the photo and make it more palatable to the viewing public. But those are decisions done farther up the chain by the AP.

Again, the general rule is not to deceive people.

The author is an idiot.

That is beside the point. He makes a good case. I'm thinking he might have even read some jt04 musings once or twice.

Does wanting pandas make one a fanboy?

That would depend on what you want them for.

I just never saw one IRL and I'd like to. I like animals.

I don't even really care if I am called a Fangirl. My skin is pretty thick. Fine by me.

Good job being Bob, btw!!!

Oh, right. I care for neither and I refuse to work for them both.

Not to rehash ethics, but any deception if wrong, especially visual deception. Gotta be true to the public.... even if the guy has no legs.

If they don't want people to see it then dont publish the photo.

OK then. I thought you had BBQ in mind.

As a close personal friend of the author, I can definitively say that nothing you may have said had any bearing whatsoever on the article.

I wanted to have a group screening with MAGICal members so we could take it apart and get drunk together.

As bad as you think it is, trust me, it is much, much worse.

If I were someone looking to take my first WDW trip (and didn't have KIDS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!), then I would be making plans to go elsewhere after viewing it.

I was praying for a Stacey Aswad appearance!

MST3K style commentary? I'm for it.

Oh, OK.



Bahahahahaha.

The sad thing is you could probably watch the WDW vacation planning video from 5 or even 10 years ago and it would look almost the same as the 2013 version.

And would be a lot more fun to watch!

Someone, anyone, DO NOT LET BOB IGER SEE TONIGHT'S PARKS AND REC!!!

Why not it does not conflict with canon.

LIES!!!!

LIES!!!!

Yeah, I should have watched the whole thing first but Boba Fett surviving the Sarlacc is canonical.

 

[HMF]

I don't believe Disney is interested in selling P&R at this time. BUT ... a spin-off could be something that is being considered ... much like another division of the company!

At this point I don't care if they sell P&R. It's obvious to me that the Disney Holding company is no longer interested in running theme parks.

So you missed the whole crossover till your nose bleeds bits?
EDIT: That was a BioShock Infinite reference, my apologies...

@EPCOT Explorer retweeted a tweet from an interesting fellow named ALittleWhistle

Walt Disney Studios Park in Paris is openly recognized as the worst designed Disney theme park in the world. The creative team was promoted.

The executive Imagineering team responsible for Walt Disney Studios in Paris is now entirely in charge of the Disneyland Resort in Anaheim.

I'm gone for a few days and The Spirit makes his return. And with amazing Universal news at that! Thanks again Spirit! Looking forward to seeing what amazing things Universal has up its sleeves.

No I heard that part. A Marvel Star Wars crossover would be horrible.

Don't forget Clash of the Titans.
The Weatherman should take painting classes!
