"Inspired" and "Some Events have been altered for dramatic purposes"


The disclaimers "Inspired by history" and "Some Events have been altered for dramatic purposes" pretty much say its made up nonsense.

Why even bother to disguise something as a documentary when its fake anyway.

Why should I even bother to waste my time with this when I have to check the facts later anyway because who knows what could be real and what could be fake?

Lame!

Either stick to the facts 100% or don't even bother to make ridiculous crap like this!

I disagree. Let's dismiss your typos for now; I just want people to know they're yours, not mine, but I digress. Now where was I?

Just because they chose to include a scene in which Mrs. Pulitzer tells her husband, ¨Re the newsies, dear, WTF?¨ does not invalidate everything the narrator tells us occurred. When you're older, it will be easier for you to tell what is clearly factual and what is clearly a dramatization. Until then, try not to express your insane opinions publicly.

Lolwhut? Sorry, but you really sound like a wannabe pompous ass.

Loonybin? Dead-end job without anything to show-for? :-)

If they only added some fluff to flesh it out for better presentation on tv they could have stated that exactly so and also added that the facts are correct, but with the kind of wording they chose it makes it very likely they could have invented or changed critical information to make it more "spectacular". That you apparently cannot understand that tells me much about you.

What has age to do with the fact that the opening statement pretty much undermines everything else they present after it? I would have to recheck the facts myself to be sure so why even bother with it in the first place? To lure some morons in so they get entertained for a little while? Sorry, but I do have higher standards than you apparently.

Btw. I'm curious... are you that decrepit that you have to reassure yourself that being old(er) is a good thing by posting this kind or rubbish or do you really have to resort to such childish jabs?

Hahaha, wannabe pompous ass inded...

I find the things your post tells about you quite funny. You think you're smart, but you're obviously not, otherwise you would never come to your hilariously stupid conclusions, that really make me laugh out loud. I mean, "insane"? Really? Do you even know what the word means? And why would I care about expressing myself publicly? This is the internet and I am pretty much anonymous, so why should I care? Or do you really identify yourself with your online persona so much?

I can see that you have an extremely skewed self-image and some serious mental issues. You sound completely fake and pretentious to such a degree that one can't help but laugh (not with you, at you). And you seem so lost up your own ass, that you probably don't even realise it.

There are various clues within your post (and your posting history) that make that quite clear, but 'ey, I can't be bothered to waste that much time with the mentally unfortunate. I didn't want to even post this much, but you really made me laugh a few times, and that I appreciate.

So, thanks for the good laughs and take care, don't let life punch you down to hard...

:-)

PS: Now please point out and correct my typos :-)
