Don't go calling TC's argument dumb. Just kick back and watch the lemmings go over the side. "Well, THEY went over, I'm going too!"

He didn't call TC's argument dumb... he called the argument that TC gave as an example dumb...

But the games are alitte different though. They didn't take two fighters which we had seen previously, use the same name, but create a horrificly different ship out of it.
I challenge you to explain any of those I just listed.
Whether it be TWO TCS Iason's, with TWO Captain's of the same name, meeting similar fates (and both apparently starting the war...)
or whether it be the Pilgrim War occuring before the Kilrathi War totally destroying the story of Action Stations
or Blair's parents dying when he was a just a kid even though Academy clearly shows they didn't...

No. In fact, I think you and I are on the same channel as far as the movie is concerned. But the lemmings don't like voices of dissent.

Have you *played* Super Wing Commander?
You just explained that one, except they aren't two Iasons. The refit is mentioned. It's just a bitch that the same ship gets taken out twice. Your only error is saying that they both seem to start the war. They don't. You just need to be clear on which Iason incident is being spoken of when.
That doesn't destroy Action Stations at all, though. Be more specific about your problem with it.

Yes it does....in Action Stations, the military is suffering from cutbacks and such. People don't even want it anymore. They see no need in it. There's been peace for so long that there's no point in having it.
But...if mankind has just faught their first interstellar war and assembled a "Grand Fleet"....isn't that kind of weird? Now it seems to make sense on some levels, in that the Pilgrims assumed that Confed wouldn't be able to defend themselves.
No. You don't get it. It's O.K. to disagree with me. I even said so.Originally posted by Bandit LOAF
I love how your proof for how right you are is simply that people who don't agree with you must be 'lemmings'. Everyone who *doesn't* agree with you is mindless! Of course! Brilliant!
So, allow me to invoke the rule: QUIT BEING STUPID AT THE CZ.

You know what? I was going to go into a big long deal, be really nice, but it's late, and YOU'RE being stupid, and my legs work.

Wow, that was your 8000th post... congratulations!!!Originally posted by Bandit LOAF
Though people in the movie seem to have been affected by it, the Pilgrim War is certainly a tiny conflict compared to the Kilrathi War... involving a few systems instead of hundreds and hundreds.
