The thing I don’t understand is what exactly is being protested here. We’re not allowed to make a movie about people going blind? Why? I seriously just don’t get it…

Wow, with these kind of idiots representing the NFB the last thing blind people should be concerned about is a metaphorical film that, if anything, will probably garner sympathy/compassion for their condition.

…blind people should be protesting their ignorant leaders instead.

Hmmm though I do require corrective lenses I think based on that little quote from the director and the involvement of the NP that I’ll go ahead and be offended because it sounds pretentious. Though I might be wrong I haven’t “seen it yet” get it seen it…? ’cause it’s pictures on a screen.

So this is just like that one time I called this guy a retard and he got all mad, but then I tried to explain to him that I was metaphorically comparing him to a retard–that his character possessed much of the qualities of a retard without actually being a retard, and I didn’t actually think he was a retard. But then he just punched me in the jaw.

“Yes Sean is about to get voicemails from thousands of voice relay operators.”

Blind people can speak, and hear. They don’t need voice relay operators.

Using people’s disabilities as a metaphor is, like, totally lame.

“Hey, did they even see the movie? Errâ€¦ wait a minute.”

OH SNAPPP! No, you did not, Sean. When they run this blog through their voice-synthesizing software (which I’m sure has got to exist) they’re gonna come after you… if they can find you. Just hold your breath and sneak past them.

It’s official: stupidity is running rampant in the world. Gimme a break. The book is brilliant, and I truly hope the movie lives up to it. Gimme a break, I say.
