Thanks, Shiksa. I finally got it to work, though. It is pretty much ridiculous how happy that made me. *goes to watch again*

I just saw it. It's absolutely beautiful. I wasn't a fan of the end of Goodbye Love, but this just produced that sinking feeling in my stomach -- exactly the way Halloween should.

It gave me that same feeling, SD. And Shiksa, you are not alone in anxiously awaiting the fight. Ohhhh, I need my DVD.

I had to try it multiple times to get it to work, Em.

Em, we're talking about a fans that watch bootlegs of movie trailers because we can't wait another 4 days for it to be officially released. It will get converted soon enough

For some reason I'm not having any problems watching it, Em. What browser are you using? That link opens another Firefox window for me and then WMP comes up.

That said... the clip is absolutely beautiful. It's perfect. As Lexi said, it's exactly the way Halloween should be. And I've always loved that song. It almost made me cry.

I read your review, saschasf. Very nice.

I had to laugh because I actually used the "pathetic" line the other night, but it really did perfectly describe this one night for me.

*droops*

I feel like the list of things I have to set straight because of INTERNET DRAMA just keeps growing and growing and growing.

Aww poor Em. Don't worry about the people that don't know you. They're not worth it.

[luvtheEmcee]

Posted: 2/11/06 at 2:44am

Yeah, but now an insult to me is also an insult to Anthony, and that makes me feel terrible. Anthony, if you see this, I'm really sorry.

[CanadianSnowbird]

Posted: 2/11/06 at 2:47am

It's not your fault Em. And I think Anthony would understand that. He's in a business where people are either going to like them, or they're not. He's had to deal with all the backlash about the Rent movie, and he handled it pretty well. I don't think one little stupid Rent secret is going to get him upset.

How could you possibly interpret this as being your fault? You really haven't done anything wrong, so I hope you don't think so.

[gertrudejessalynn]

Posted: 2/11/06 at 2:53am

Yes, Sarah.

I still think Rent secrets to far too silly to make a big deal out of...

Posted: 2/11/06 at 2:54am

I'm confused as to what you're exactly referring to, but as Ashley said, you really haven't done anything wrong. Someone is obviously interpreting what you've said incorrectly, has his or her own wacky reasons for disliking you, or is jealous. Don't feel self-conscious just because one person doesn't happen to enjoy your posts.

[luvtheEmcee]

Posted: 2/11/06 at 3:37am

Well, I get upset when people don't like me, but that's because I'm just really sensitive.

But my concern is the implications of all of the drama I've been involved in.

Posted: 2/11/06 at 3:53am

Are you talking about arguments you've been involved witb on here? I think it's really a catch-22 -- it's obvious that you want to express your opinion even if it means potentially getting into an argument, but as a result, some people might irrationally dislike you for doing so. Although, if you stayed out all arguments, then you'd probably be angry at yourself. There are potentially going to be negative consequences either way, so just keep being true to yourself and how you want to express your beliefs. It's obvious that most people do indeed respect you and while I understand why you're hurt and angry at what the one anonymous person said, it's obvious that person is in the very small minority.

I know it's easy for me to say all of this because the secret wasn't directed at me. That said, I really hope you don't change your behavior just because one person decided to be a prick.

Edit: I think I definitely went over the amount of times the word "obvious" should be allowed in one post. Heh. Sorry, it's late. Updated On: 2/11/06 at 03:53 AM

Here, LJ... well, those are the only places I've posted. I think it is a catch-22 to want to express your opinions and want to be liked, but honestly, I can take people disagreeing with me, and I like a healthy debate. I *can't* do the personal stuff. It's petty, rude, and totally uncalled for. I can even accept that there are some people on this board that don't like me, but what this person did is such a low-blow.

But what I meant was I'm sort of afraid of a ripple affect that might be created by some of the bigger arguments I've been involved in on LJ -- I post anonymously, but I don't think my writing is hard to recognize. This is quickly getting out of hand. I think that deep down, I'm too proud to let them get to me, even if I'm a mixture of hurt, confused and angry right now. It angers me most that this person will get what they deserve for it.

Anyway, I guess I should take my racing mind and bruised ego to sleep.

That sounds like a good plan.
