Pixar akbar
Vanity | 6/19/2017 | Self

Posted on 06/16/2017 9:20:31 AM PDT by bk1000

VANITY Ok, I got tired of seeing John Ossoff ads every time I opened Youtube, so I cleared my history and cookies. Now getting random ads. Here is one fro. Pixar, the company that makes the cartoon movies your kids love so much. Notice their little symbol. Looks vaguely familiar. Where have I seen something that looks like that? Hmmmmmm.....

So the little _ball_ has evolved into a specific angle via Disney, which does match another symbol. Was that random? Or more likely not?

Might be a subtle sales/marketing effort. Those people in Muslim countries who see it will immediately recognize it as an Islamic symbol, and it might encourage them to patronize the movie. Indonesia has 257 million people in it, and it's Muslim.

Most of the rest of the world will simply ignore it.

And you run to the insults again. Thus proving, again, that we both know I’m right. And then you pick a different screen grab. Nothing like lying to add to your need to insults to show that you’re wrong, again. Because in reality the FIRST PICTURE at the link I already provided:

Show the ball in the EXACT angle you’re whining about. So once again we see that you’re a liar, and wrong. Because you are always wrong and always run to lies to hide it.

Nope. It didn’t “evolve”, that’s the angle it’s been at in first sight for 30 years. The only thing that changed is certain whiny people finally bothered to notice. The fact that it took them until 2017 shows just how moronic the complaint is.

Any anger at the OP is ignorant.
Perhaps it is islamic, perhaps not but there is NO HARM in drawing these sort of conclusions based on the world we live in today.

Another example of how you are annoying. 1, "annoying" is hardly an "insult." 2, even if it were, insulting you does not make you correct.

And then you pick a different screen grab.

So did the guy who posted before me. Look up thread and you'll see he picked the same screen shot. As a matter of fact, it appears to be the most common one.

Nothing like lying to add to your need to insults to show that you’re wrong, again.

And here you go accuse people of "lying", and you wonder why I find you "annoying." Here is a link to the original video "Luxor Jr.". If you will watch it, you will find that the view of the ball that you picked is the most uncommon view of the ball in the entire short clip.

https://youtu.be/6G3O60o5U7w

So once again we see that you’re a liar, and wrong. Because you are always wrong and always run to lies to hide it.

Brave internet warrior safely behind his keyboard would not say such a thing to my face.

I shall let the public judge which of us is correct. As I said, in the original short clip (1986) known as "Luxor Jr." the ball spends the vast majority of it's time on screen in every orientation except the one you picked. (occurs at 51 seconds in and is very brief) It likewise does not appear in that configuration in the subsequent "Red's Dream" movie.

Put down the weed and grow the f*** up.

No. "Discostu" is incorrect as I show in my previous post. The ball spends the vast majority of it's appearances in every angle except the one looking like a Crescent and Star.

The Pixar logo actually did change (evolve) over the years.

A sharp eye can discern the ball has a star on it. The star essentially consists of five triangles. Triangles are a symbol of SATAN! I order an immediate boycott.

Annoying IS an insult. And you ARE a flame war addicted liar.

I don’t wonder why you find me annoying I know why you find me annoying: I don’t give into your lying bullying BS, I point out that you’re wrong and I KEEP pointing out that you’re wrong because you are ALWAYS wrong.

BWAHAHAHAHAHA The insult addicted liar who turns everything into a flame war accuses somebody else of being a brave internet warrior?! That’s rich. Anybody lies to me, on the net or in person, gets their lies pointed out. I’m not afraid of liars, I know they’re cowards.

The main logo. But the ball position they’re using comes from the first frame where the ball stopped in their first short. Nothing about that has changed. That frame is that frame and has been that frame for 30 years, and that frame has that ball in that position.

And you studiously avoid the frame I’m talking about. Because that’s what liars do.
Why can’t you be bothered to look here:

Oh yeah, because that proves you WRONG.

Deliberately deceiving people is also lying. I posted a link to the clip above. The first several times they roll the ball, it comes to rest at completely different positions from that which you have posted. Your version only occurs once and for a brief second before it changes.

Most of the images of the ball show it resting in a completely different position. The frame you chose is the rarer of all the available examples.

In fact, *this* is the first frame of that movie.

The frame to which Discostu refers does not occur until 51 seconds into the clip. Before it gets to that point, the ball rolls and stops in several different positions, all of which last longer in the film than the one he picked.

He is simply trying to force reality to conform to his preference instead of seeing it as it actually exists.

I didn’t chose a frame. That’s their frame which they use, and have been using for that short for decades. Yes the ball winds up in many many positions. Including that one. Which is the frame you’ll see if you search for the short on youtube.

That’s the title card. Different thing entirely.

I looked there. Those are links to the same clip "Luxo Jr." that I linked above. The Video still does not support your claim. Your image is not the first frame. If it was shot at 24 frames a second, your image comes up about frame #1224.

Before that, lots of other frames show the ball in completely different orientations and for a much longer duration.
