I'm pretty sure that was it. The 4:51 video was kind of draggy...

ergh... I can't think of a better word. Hopefully you understand what I'm saying.

I think we're bitching in a different way this time. We're actually saying "Wow, I could do with some more of that" instead of "Jesus Christ, can we get this over with?!!"

I hope it lasts. I'm afraid my faith will be renewed if it does, though.

I really didn't mean to stir up a mini-fuss guys...

You couldn't be more wrong.

There is no Bree-Jonas love angle; there was playfulness. Jonas is lost, but he does understand that Bree still doesn't understand romance.

Daniel is lost as well. Sarah seems to be interested, and the cherry stem thing is a bar trick that men use to pick up women:

1. Take two cherries from the condiments tray in the bar.

2. Secretly tie a knot in one stem, and then put it under your tongue.

3. Get the desired woman's attention and say "check this out."

4. Show her the untied stem and place it in your mouth, then swirl it around a bit.

5. Pull the tied stem out of your mouth, look at the bartender, and say "check please."

This actually works more times than "knot."
sometime people actually can do it though!

*can actually do it*

*can actually do it, too!*

Calling someone's personal opinion wrong? Calm down there Apo..

And I now must say that YOU couldn't be more wrong =)...

There definately is a Bree-Jonas love angle..

It sounds like what they cut was what many have been griping about lately
Poor Creators just can't win anymore

I couldn't agree more, Flowers. Some of what was missing wouldn't have been all that bad, but I suspect we would have complained anyway. Just so everyone (that mean you, Miles et. al.) knows--I'm not complaining about a short video. Disregard that insane person up there that was using my name. 5 seconds, 5 minutes, 5 hours.

I'll take what I can get.

lol @ bree and jonas can't keep their hands off of each other.

DB looks way hotttt in this vid.

The creators have romanced me once again, and without giving me a decent answer. Who would've thunk it?

I don't think you did. Several of us noticed the difference in the time. We're thankful you saw it and were able to give us an idea of what we missed. And we're not mad at the Creators (at least I don't think). We just liked the vid and wish we could see more.

If there wasn't before, there certainly is now.

I realize that your intentions were probably positively meant, but I'm trying to look at it from the Creator's perspective, which few take the time to do. It's the situation where 'They're damned if they do, and damned if they don't".

If they don't take people's criticism into account, they are accused of ignoring their audience and face a general backlash of constant complaints until something is done. Then, when they do take people's comments into account, the masses still aren't satisfied with the result.

I think that they probably had a reason for cutting the video, and the most likely reason was because of all the recent criticism about 'filler videos' and 'pointless sequences'.

I just feel badly for them. No matter what they do, there will always be people to find something they didn't like. What’s even more frustrating is that this change was probably due to people on the forum’s earlier comments.

Seriously. They're still not off the hook, but for now, they're winning my heart back.

Bastards (said without malice).

I completely agree, and in a totally non kiss-ass way, may I say that I enjoy the HECK outta your posts. So articulate!

Are you a journalism major?

ApotheosisAZ · Post by **ApotheosisAZ** » Thu May 03, 2007 12:41 am

I'm telling you, this whole thing points to Sarah convincing Daniel to go to a bar.

This vid has definitely restored my faith in The Creators ability to spin an interesting tale, even if my assumptions are completely wrong!

Thanks

I'm currently pursuing a double major in English and History, with any extra credits going towards classical studies (Ancient Greece, Rome, Classical Mythology, etc)
