By this, he is NOT saying that they DIDN'T die, but rather, just that the film does not openly declare their deaths. It IMPLIES that they died, but does not verbal SAY so.

Sto's claim of a lack of evidence to the confirmation of their deaths in just the film alone is a general statement. You are misinterpreting this as though he were instead saying "They did not die," which he is not saying at all.

Sto's claim of "There's no solid evidence from the film's narrative to confirm that they died," only means that we can't say yes or no either way without consulting external material--meaning info from stuff outside of the movie.

The statement that you think he's saying (but isn't) of, "They did not die," gives a definite answer to their fates. Sto, however, is merely saying that there is NO definite answer to the fates. He's not saying that they did or didn't die, but that we cannot say for certain what their fates were from just watching the film alone. We can IMPLY that they died, but we cannot say that they DID die and take it as a fact from the movie alone.

Long story short, Sto is not saying one way or the other about whether or not they died, but instead that the movie is simply AMBIGUOUS on this matter, giving NO answer one way or the other at all.

There is no right or wrong answer. There's just NO answer period.

Sabrblade wrote:Oh brother. Decepti-Scott, you completely missed what Sto was trying to say to you.

He DOES believe that they are all dead, but that's because there has been outside material to confirm it. The movie by itself, however, bears NO such confirmation, giving NO answer to say whether they were dead or alive.

But I do like to think they died.

Edited. Changed the word "believe" to "think".

I wanted to find out just how many people share your theory to see just how bad you were or were not in the minority with your thinking.

You know one could argue that...ahem... " I never refered to our other post and I never quoted anyone. Theres no proof from within the narrative that I was referring to the other post"
If you think them dead then why do you attack people who refer to them as dead? You make no sense. If you wanna stand out as an individual paint yourself purple, get a peg leg what ever but for gods sake abandon your whole "theres no PROOF that a toon character died or didnt" crap

Since stovokor and sarblade have deliberately ignored what I humbly asked in my opening post the mods may as well close this one up.

decepta-scott wrote:The fact of the matter is I asked people not to post anything but a dead or alive answer but you and your pal deliberately ignored that request.

Is it a law that you have to do as the thread starter asks? No, but it is respectful.

Though I should have known better than to expect anything more than complete disrespect from you.

decepta-scott wrote:My arguement never failed. You never proved me wrong .
I know that I dont run it. Youll know If I ever do because you will be removed.
I know its an open thread and that I dont have the right to make anyone do anything. Thats why I ASKED people to respond a certain way.You ignored that. because You are disrespectful. TA TA.

decepta-scott, please try and understand:

A. Stovokoor does NOT state Windcharger and Wheeljack ARE ALIVE, he is merely saying that because there is no evidence to the contrary, it is POSSIBLE, and i stress possible, they may be alive, but HE LIKES TO THINK THEY ARE DEAD. As do i.

B. He hasn't attacked you at all, not once, and i've been following the animated thread.

decepta-scott wrote:O.K. Now you try and understand.
As long as he follows me around the board telling me that it was never proven they died over and over every time I refer to them as being dead and delebratly trying to annoy me by force feeding me his "points", I am going to argue my points right back.
Also, He most certainly DID jump down my throat for telling him where to find the scene with wheeljack when I thought Hed overlooked it. I guess he couldnt believe that anyone had challenge the knowledge of stovokor! He had a few people give him a copmliment ya know? There right under his pictures for all to see.

This is childish behaivor.

All I did was ask you to back up your claims of FACTS.But since you couldnt you chose to launch insults and make it personal.

And following you around??? Please, if you hadnt refered to our debate I wouldnt have ever replied.
