My original point was that I feel sorry for the Club being jerked around so much by things that are out of its control.

The club never officially announced the convention site in the beginning did they? I remember they announced the dates and that was it. I am correct about this?

I'll admit, one of my first thoughts was that all the location and registration mania was related to this insane film news and you guys just weren't allowed to say anything. And then of course once I actually started thinking about it instead of reacting to it... I realized that the Club had no idea this was going to happen. And that these things are not related. Nothing that has transpired on the Club's end could be related to this news. It wouldn't make sense. It DOESN'T make sense. I thought it did until I considered everything BUT the timing. Sure the timing makes it seem "obvious" but the information makes the premise that registration's delay had anything to do with yesterday's news almost sound silly. So I'd listen to Pete, guys. Maybe not if Pete tells you to run down the street with a box on your head and ear plugs in... but I'm pretty confident we can take his word on this absolutely insane turn of events as it relates to the Club and Con.

Good points. I think emotions are high right now, for obvious reasons, and everyone needs to take a chill pill. That includes the execs at Hasbro and Paramount. lol

On the toy side... there's no way Hasbro wanted this. I'd be surprised if they even knew about it considering Paramount is the bigger animal. But one of the points that was brought up last night on WOJM was that Hasbro hopefully realizes that even if they want to be a major hollywood player independent of their Disney and Lucasfilm ties or even in conjunction... that they remember that it was TOYS that got them this far. Not film. Not hollywood. Not 3D. Not Channing. TOYS.

KEVIN! I'd kiss your ass before I'd kiss Pete's. I've only met Pete once. (No offense Pete). Besides I have zero reason to kiss the Club's ass until I've registered for con. Then... MAYBE. But I'd do anything at this point to go to con so really beggars can't be choosers.
