  • Tim Burton had nothing to do with the plot of 9. Don't believe me, look up Writer/Creator Shane Acker's original Short Film of 9, the story is essentially the same, only shorter.

    True, very true... But he was the producer, he endorsed it and put his name on it, and his name is the largest on the marquee, so he will be the recipient of my nerd rage.

    Yes!

    ...and my own silly entries (since most of the heavies are taken):

    Jonathan Frakes - For re-making Thunderbirds and essentially murdering the franchise.

    J.J. Abrams - Hubris, pure unadulterated hubris.

    Fox Executives - For canceling Futurama in the first place.

    John Russo - For re-editing his own "version" of Night of the Living Dead.

    Girl Scouts of America - For making those damnable cookies so delicious!

    Jan Jones - (This is a Local Las Vegas one) For fostering ridiculously unrestricted growth in Las Vegas throughout the 80's and 90's.

    Steven Spielberg - For having made only a very small handful of really good movies and a bunch of really crappy ones.

    George Lucas - Not for how the prequels turned out (which were bad enough) but for having made them at all. Should have moved forward.

    Tim Burton - For the same reasons as Spielberg as well as overusing Johnny Depp.

    Seth MacFarland - Because many people actually consider Family Guy groundbreaking and a work of genius when it is actually derivative and sophomoric. I still blame him for this.

    Everyone involved in both Fantastic Four movies - Shame on you.

    Hollywood - For making so many films which amount to 'technical exercises' of having seen it before. ZZzzz

    I'll go with this but that's still two more good seasons we can drag out of it before it dies. It's just be the new Babylon 5 where you only watch the first three (four) seasons and pretend the other one(s) doesn't exist.

    Everyone who voted for Obama should apologize.

    Any record label that signed on all these crappy boy bands ought to apologize as well.

    --The whole concept of government granted and government regulated 'permits' and the accompanying government mandate for government approved firearms 'training' prior to being blessed by government with the privilege to carry arms in a government approved and regulated manner, flies directly in the face of the fundamental right to keep and bear arms.

    Stuff I'm Apoligising for:

    1. Being honest to people because nobody else has the stones to tell you what you need to hear to knuckle up and be responisble.
    2. Driving any vehicle in any video game, ever. Sorry about crushing you former teamates.
    3. Being a cynical, sarcastic smartass who can connect with other people only by being cynical and sarcastic.

    Stuff People Should Apoligise For:

    1. Being stupid.
    2. Having stupid children.
    3. Living.
    4. Judging me by just looking at me befoer getting to know the complex mind within.
    5. Ensemble for making Age of Empires 3.
    6. Monty Python for being so damn funny.
    7. Stephen King for writing quite possibly the most anti climactic ending to a story.
    8. Uwe Boll for breathing.
    9. Al Sharpton for being a hypocritial douche.
    10. Burnie Madoff for being the biggest douche ever.
    11. People who don't think the death sentence is right. Mass murderers deserve to die!
