Thank you Teague (and the rest of the gang). This podcast has meant so much to me. Didn't really sink in til I read all these posts and the wonderful things everyone has said. Pretty much covers it all. Just wanted to say thanks for all the free funny and insight over the years
Y'all are beuatiful. I just got home from some fights and am a little drunk so I won't spill my guts here, but the love you guys have for the podcasts and this community writ large is humbling. I'll post a longer thing later but in the meantime....thank you all.
Aw, No...
Well, it was fun while it lasted. I enjoyed your podcasts since the days of geekza, and have known who fig was on the internet since the np2k forum days. I originally listened in because Chris Hanel was one of the two geekza guys in the beginning. And over time I became familiar with Teague, Michael, Bryan and Trey since you all did Star Wars fanfims back when tfn was big.
I have thoroughly enjoyed the content that you guys have put out under down in front and friends in your head. I've also learned a lot about how and why movies work the way they do from you guys. There have been some real eye-opening discussions on this podcast.
The community here has been a unique one, and in my opinion better than the community on tfn. I got along handsomely with all of you and although I didn't chime in all that often over the last year and a half, I've still read what people had to say.
Teague, Bryan, Michael, Trey, Eddie, Chloe and whomever else has been on this podcast; this is the closing of a chapter in you life. It's been fun. I can understand you guys wanting to move on to other things, it's in our human nature to grow and change. I wish you all a very fond farewell and hope you all have a very happy and great life ahead! Cheers!
Do you guys have any backlog of podcasts that haven't been released yet? Something to tide us over till the inevitable JJ-bashfest in December?
I don't post here often enough and I lurked too often in the live chat, but I have to say this really hurts.
I understand some of reasons for this hiatus and of course I wish the whole WAYDM / DIF crew nothing but success & happiness but my Sundays and my heart are both going to be a little more empty.
Thank you for the laughs, the discussions and the thought provoking analysis. Thank you for sharing yourselves and that weird type of friendship that I feel for a bunch of people that I've never met, have never really spoken to and who don't know me at all but who are all very important to me. Thank you for everything.
I'm just an engineer with delusions of being a piss poor writer, so I'll steal some words from someone better than me...
I suppose some birds aren't meant to be caged. Their feathers are just too bright. And when they fly away, the part of you that knows it was a sin to lock them up DOES rejoice. But still, the place you live in is that much more drab and empty that they're gone. I guess I'll just miss my friends in my head.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!
You guys are one of the few things I look forward .
FUUUUUCCCCCKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK..........
Now begins mass downloads of all podcasts that I don't have, this will take some time.....
I certainly don't have anything profound to add, but I would like to say thanks for the hours of entertainment. I found you guys entirely on accident (that's for Trey) when someone emailed me a copy of the Phantom Menace commentary instead of a Riff Raff Theater file I asked for that I'd worked on with Chris Hanel. Seriously... best mistake ever. After giving that track a listen, I wanted to see if you'd done anything else and when I searched I hit the exact time period that you were transitioning from DIF to WAYDM and I've been hooked ever since.
You guys have the amazing ability of making me interested in things that never even occured to me to check out. Brian's love of all things space related leaked into my subconsious enough to get me to watch From the Earth to the Moon, and order an out of print copy of Lost Moon. The Malariathon got me to read the Harry Potter books, and subsequently the Methods of Rationality (which is amazing). And I didn't know I could listen to a four hour discussion about film scores, with no musical background and be interested the whole time. While I don't agree with Eddie on a lot of his film opinions I was listening to him going through the process of being a new dad, while I was doing the same. I've even grown used to Jake's "name a different actor than the one that's on screen" schtick although I'll admit, I have skipped a few Jake episodes as I've gone back through the catalogue.
I've enjoyed the variety of content you provide, from the film school breakdown of Mulholland Drive to whatever the hell you wanna call the Wanted episode. And I could listen to Trey tell stories all day. I've started tracking down a lot of the films he recommends even in passing.
I'm not active on the forums, as listening to DIF is a chore time and commuting to work activity, so the end of the podcasts really does feel like a loss to me. That being said, I'm not nearly as crushed as I was with the initial news of Mike's accident, so at least I can put things into their proper perspective. That being said, I'll try to read and post more here in the future, and if you do end up releasing new episodes, even better.
Seriously guys, thank you.
