"It would tarnish the legacy!" Who cares, it wouldn't ruin the first album. Not making anything new because it might hurt the legacy of something is dumb and I'd rather get new content even if it's not as good as what came before. That's why I'm happy we're still getting blink music without Tom DeLonge. I mean, that's debatable. If Pulp Fiction had a sequel it wouldn't stand out as much. If another director made a sequel to it you'd think it's pointless, milking it, less of that artist. If Tarantino made a Pulp Fiction it would high and likely be worse, and you'd think slightly less of the artist. Sometimes things are left better untouched. However, I don't think Boxcar would be forced in anyway, so I'm all for it, even though the sound would be different. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just because you don’t like that said artists newer creations doesn’t mean that other people isn’t.

Idk, because I don't live in a bubble. if someone's going to make some garbage ass remake, I'm not going to pretend to like it if it sucks.

Jan thinks her opinion is the only one that matters and if she doesn’t like it then it’s bad and everybody that likes it is wrong and lies about liking it. It’s just Jan’s misguided ego.

Why do you keep using "bubble". Have you always latched on to terms like this? You tend to find a phrase or word or colloquialism "of the week" and use it every chance you get. Is this something you've always done? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not saying you have to like every new thing. I’m saying that if a new thing is bad it doesn’t have any effect on how good the old thing is.

Sometimes it can hinder the past if it gets ugly enough or reveals too much formula. Blink almost changed my perspective of Mark & Travis entirely with this California shit era but I've been able to separate it entirely as a different band and times of their lives. Every artist is going to have their peak and their later career that is going to be different, unless they die (Nirvana, 2Pac), which isn't cool.

Coca-Cola trying a new flavor isn't ruining their classic drink. You get the point, what's great is great and stays that way. There is nothing to lose, and everything to gain.

Because people live in denial and don't want to be negative. You're expectations are undoubtedly high and it's hard to see them crushed. Just look at the current era of star wars, you know how many people pretended to like that utter shit and then finally came out and said it's trash after the finale and years later from force awakens? People definitely don't have to have the same views as me, my views are usually different, but people who like current blink california era or recent star wars are in denial 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why is it that you don’t think that everyone has the right to their own opinion? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
