Ok, so far we have a 1, another 1, a 3, and a -5. Add all that up and its a 0. As in ZERO. That's about how many cylinders zanetti's story is running on.

The author gets a 0, but I'll give the first part of the story a 2. I fell asleep about half way through so I don't know if it got better. Maybe the next time I get insomnia.

Screwloose, Chase Bansi and BBB be still my Dogs of war, I understand your pain...

But if we can try to confine the comments and discussion of this piece of shi... literary work within this thread and try not to be provoked by him (Capt Chaos) in replying when he hi-jacks another thread then it's gotta be a good thing. Don't you agree?

Arena, however good or bad, is part of this MM discussion forum and until something more provocative comes along, is a current topic whether we like it or not. This thread is, perhaps the last ditch attempt at convincing the author to acknowledge that despite his best efforts, most of us didn't like it and no amount of convincing, goading or pleading will change that opinion.

When anyone writes a Mad Max piece of fan fiction it becomes a little part of the Mad Max world. Whether it's liked is entirely another matter. Yin and Yang and all that.

Just some thoughts from the padded cell.

Ps realMax. Sincere apologies for being guilty of hi-jacking this thread myself with my little chat with OHC and that leader tangent thing. I'll behave.

I pwomise.

I'm with you bike, Max stopped being Max and the story stopped being Max quite early on and it was obvious what was going to happen next, especially with Spunk.... I mean Sprint.

I thought it was thoroughly gay. Gives people with real talent and consquent quieter voices even less of a chance of getting a decent script into production. 1 / 10.

You all get zero out of ten for failing to realize that "realMax" is in actuality HUMVEE Driver...

Post by **Biker** » Tue Dec 06, 2005 11:29 am

... And what exactly has that to do with the price of spuds anyway Zanetti?

Whether it was HUMVEE, using another name, or someone else entirely. They're just expressing the same thoughts everyone else has been saying for the past 4 weeks since your appearence here.

Yep it's been exactly 30 since you crawled out of the dustbin, in that tine you've clocked up 94 postings. That works out roughly 3 per day and every last goddamn bleedin' post being something to do with promoting you Arena story.

They say 'Variety is the spice of life' so why not try it Zanetti?

Or better yet. Move on with your life and while you're at it move along to another film forum as well. The Care Bears forum might be needing to new script writer for thier film, try there.
