Well personally I don't need a definition of "end credits". I know what they are. I do not believe the sentence you are referring to is defining end credits at all. Neither do I, and that is my point...and here is the sentence I am refering to: "For the purposes of this section we define "standard" film credits as those where all credited actors involved are listed together in a single section at the end of the film - defined here as the "end credits"." What, other than the cast list, could the last part of the sentence be refering to? In addition to that there is this sentence: "For any film with standard credits, take the actor information from the end credits only..." Why define 'standard credits' then tell us to take the actor information from the end credits only? Shouldn't it say to take the actor information from the 'standard credits' only? Again, it just doesn't make any sense to me. | | | No dictator, no invader can hold an imprisoned population by force of arms forever.

| | Posted: | | | | I agree...it doesn't make any sense the way it's written.
However, I do not believe there is any doubt that puppeteers are members of the cast per the Rules, so "standard" credits do not apply to this film anyway. | | | | Hal |

| | Posted: | | | | And you are wrong, hal as I have repeatedly described. there is NO WAY to take the Rule as a whole and allow for Puppeteers in this case. Of course when you do as you are doing, it makes sense but it is completely illogical as it invalidates the primary Rule, for waht purpose, a personal agenda and that belongs only in your local. As I said i have been trying to create a logical argument that supports you and it simply is not possible. Your premise is flawed and cannot be reconciled with the rule in total.

Skip Maybe she was afraid you'd lock her in the cellar if she DARED disagree with you.  Statements made under duress are not admissible. |

Your snide remarks betray your immaturity. They also reveal nothing that is not known here. Now since you know nothing about me or the whys and wherefores of why things are as they are. Before you tread further into the area of personal attack insult I will tell you now BACK OFF. Despite what you think you know. twenty years involvement in the Video Industry and my wife and I together have over 50 years in database design and development, to your what 0 years.
You have been warned.

| | Posted: | | | | Ok idiot. Like I said this is NOT news., All you need to know that my wife is not a well woman and what have done in the past few years were based on allowing me to back her up in what she did. I needed something to do that allowed me flexibility to be able travel whne necessary because of her job, she was unable, and still is to do the long-distance driving that her job required.
I doubt seriously if you are even old enough to to be out from under your parents wing. In my life I have done far more than you will ever be able to understand, let alone understand why it might be necessary to sacrifice myself for the benefit of the woman that I am married to. I have forgotten far more about database design and film than you are EVER going to learn.
Like I said this nothing new here, others like you who have nothing of worth to say have tried the same smear game.Now keep your snide remarks to yourself.
They like your avatar only define your lack of knowledge. All you have the ability to do is make assumptions and they make a total ass of YOU.

Skip Database design I'll give ya, film, you're talking out your backside. I'm not going to get in an argument about your wife. I don't know her, and I only mentioned her in the previous post to make the point that you can't stand when anyone disagrees with you. I wasn't casting aspersions against her with that remark. So relax |
