"Archive discussion post."
Mon May-28-07 07:29 PM by Frank Longo

  

          

UPDATE: So we've kind of slowed to a halt. If there are any posts you feel STRONGLY that we should get rid of, please post them below. Also, to Ryan, Wordman, and Kurly, if you want to look at Ricky's posts and get some quick ideas about what you'd like gone, go ahead and glance through soon please.

I'm gonna try to delete the ones I feel the committee agrees should be gone, and I'll make judgement calls based on individual requests. I probably won't get rid of ALL of the ones you recommended, Ricky, simply because our archives are comparatively small anyhow. I will try to get rid of a page or more, especially the pointless repeat/list posts. But it'll probably come down to judgement call for some of those.

So if anyone has any hardcore campaigning to do, please do it in the next 48 hours.

Thanks, Frank

*** ORIGINAL POST ***

I believe the people in this post are Ryan, Wordman, Kurly, and genius.switch (a.k.a. Ricky B). Thank you guys for agreeing to do this. I've asked a couple of others that I'm waiting to hear from. Also, if anyone searches and stumbles upon this post and is interested in joining in, welcome. I've basically got two goals with this post.

1. Discussing "archivability": i.e. what constitutes a post worthy of archival, what are the specific attributes of a post the mods do or do not archive.

2. Discussing the specific posts currently archived in detail: do they meet our list of attributes for archivable posts? Are these posts that can easily be repeated? Do they contain material held more eloquently in other archived posts on the same topic? Are these posts that are on a good topic that we should perhaps create a new post on the same subject to see if we can get better, more up-to-date responses, rendering the older one obsolete?

I'm in the process of moving all music related posts archived back when PTP was Reviews, but that should be done soon. I'd like to start talking about this as soon as possible.

Also, in the interest of keeping the masses who either haven't been here long enough to know what we're about or don't really feel like dedicating the time to reading all of these old archived posts, I've decided to hide this post from the public. If you could either bookmark this specific post, or (the long way) you might be able to find it via the search function, then please do that. But I'd probably do that right away, before you forget the link to this post, lol.

Thanks,
Frank

1. "Archivability."
In response to Reply # 0


  

          

Here's just some thoughts I have on archivability.

1. Is this a post that can never truly be replicated, i.e. really valuable information, an epic poster fight, or just some really funny reply? If so, it should probably be archived.

2. Is there valuable information/discussion in this post that truly captures a moment of good in-depth analysis/conversation in PTP?

3. Is this post screamingly funny? Does it have a classic beef between posters that people will talk about for years?

Those are my big three requirements. Add on?

In response to Reply # 1


  

          

And I can't help but feel like Anthony Michael Hall.

I think there are a couple kind of posts that should be chopped off first.

1. Repeat Posts
--stuff that's covered multiple times
2. Quote / List heavy posts w/out much dicsussions
--what's the point?
3. TV Show Season Posts
--i can't imagine too much rereading comes from a lot of them.
4. Impotent Reply-wise
--obviously, they offer little dicussion.
5. Prep Time
--i think there are a number of great comic posts, unfortunately they're the exception

Basically, as Frank said, archived posts should offer insightful discussion or something else that makes rereading them worthwile (jokes, information, etc.).

There are others that don't fit in those five categories, but we can get to them later.

Since I'm in a cutting-type mood, let me at least offer some of mine up for execution.

In response to Reply # 3


  

          

Keep the discussion - informative, fun read.
Get rid of number 2 - pointless
keep number 3 ("worst best film oscar ever") - If for no other reason than to see Frank Longo pissed. It's just fun reading stuff from folks who are passionate about their haterade.

It should also be noted that while I thought Crash was good (not great, not amazing, not better than DTRT, I just thought it was good), I definitely do not think it should have won best film.

Keep the first one. Maybe 'cause I enjoy reading posts by people who don't like the same movies I do.
Lose the second one. How many Big L quote posts does one board need?

I prefer it the other way around.
Lose the "I like AD but" post and keep "I just watched AD". That "I just watched AD" post was up on the boards FOREVER.

I'd get rid of both.
While I'm sure we'd all miss Janey's rules on movie theatre sex, most of the info in the post is outdated.

I don't think I've found a message board with so much to say about Spike Lee. Every post about this cat becomes a goldmine for some reason. Don't get me wrong, his movies are good, but damn, do you think people argued this much about Hitchcock back in the day?
As for the posts, I say keep 'em both please. I love reading 'em.

In response to Reply # 2


  

          

I think a case can be made to keep TV show season posts (as they can't really be duplicated a la Frank's stipulation), but a lot of the discussion doesn't make sense out of context, i.e., months or years later they lose their flavor.

Definitely. And I got about another batch of 15-20 or so to throw out. But take your time, as I'm still impressed that this project is even being contemplated.

59. "reasons to keep "I Love The 70s - VH1" post"
In response to Reply # 2


  

          

only reasons I could think to keep it are:
* Johnbook
* Janey
* Is a fun read.

But other than that, I say nay.
It also doesn't help that I was born in '82.

62. "You gotta keep "Persona"!!!"
In response to Reply # 2


  

          

I was so happy this was archived!
Do you know how hard it is to find discussion on this film?
I find reading stuff on particular films in depth VERY interesting, and I always go back and read them.
I was more upset that I didn't find the post until it was in archives.
I don't necessarily know that it fits any of the requirements we set, but I like this post and - when my archives function was working - would read it every time I went 'archive fishing'*.

*'archive fishing' - 'bout 2, 3 times a year I'd go through the archives and read, or in most cases re-read posts. You know, if I had the time to kill.

I think it does merit re-reading.
I enjoy posts like this, posts that critically look at the industry as well as the films. I haven't found too many boards that intelligently (note: INTELLIGENTLY) discuss the film industry, so I think keeping posts like this is a good idea.

I'm not trying to save everything, you just started with ones I like. I promise to get the chopping block going any second now...

And you wouldn't like me when I'm angry.

yeah, there's other stuff that covers the same ground, but I dug this one just the same.
Plus Prof. Calculus dissing OE, and remembering the "no diss" comment 3 sentences later was a laugh.
I'd be sad to see it go, until another "I like Art School Confidential and Rocky IV" post. So off with its head.

Is there any particular reason I can't get into the PTP archives?
Every time I click the link for it, everything but the archived posts come up (meaning I get the top two menu bars, the 'topics sorted by' line, the key, the 'jump to another forum', but no actual posts).
What am I doing wrong here?

LOL no, not really. I'm gonna start making individual posts about posts I think should not be archived in a bit, and we'll just go into them, poke our head into that archived post, see if we want to keep it or not, say a short thing why (or don't if everyone's in agreement), and we'll move forward.

I just kind of want to start trimming it now. I have no real deadline.

19. "FIRST UP FOR DISCUSSION: Pulp Fiction posts."
In response to Reply # 0


  

          

Stanley Crouch's essay on Tarantino flims (everyone should read this)
http://board.okayplayer.com/okp.php?az=show_topic&forum=23&topic_id=28110&mesg_id=28110
How well do you think Pulp Fiction has aged?
http://board.okayplayer.com/okp.php?az=show_topic&forum=23&topic_id=48386&mesg_id=48386
The Pulp Fiction Post
http://board.okayplayer.com/okp.php?az=show_topic&forum=23&topic_id=1928&mesg_id=1928

Personally? I would keep the first two, if simply because the Orbit_Established blowups over Pulp Fiction are simply legendary. The first one having a great O_E vs. Damaja battle, the second having a great O_E vs. AFKAP battle. O_E's hatred of Pulp Fiction has been an institution of PTP for the last several years, and I really actually like both of these posts as evidence of such.

The last one is superfluous, has no true value that couldn't be repeated, and I think it should go.

Thoughts?

Perhaps, this is where there might be some disagreement.

For the most part, the posts that break from discussion and become big ol' tangled messes of tangents and ad hominems are boring to me. It's alright to highlight someone being clowned or bickering back and forth in some really notable fashion, but I think if you try and carbonite a couple meager examples, it brings the worth of the whole lot down. Basically, you don't see every time WC and AFKAP go at each other in the Lesson being archived. That shit is rather common place and not all that exciting once it's been a minute or two after. And O_E's argued with anyone and everyone, so I don't think there's any special need to save these.

I think all three posts, and any that are being perserved simply because hand-slapping was involved, should go. I'm sure you, Frank, or whomever, might feel different, and that's cool, but I'm just stating where I side.

With most of y'all on this one.
Keep 1 and 2. Those arguments are legendary.
Gotta cut 3.
The first half dozen or so posts are about "check the archives". Would seem a little weird to have it in the archives.

*******'Crash' Discussion Post
http://board.okayplayer.com/okp.php?az=show_topic&forum=23&topic_id=24262&mesg_id=24262
A brief word on Crash
http://board.okayplayer.com/okp.php?az=show_topic&forum=23&topic_id=48755&mesg_id=48755
WORST BEST PICTURE WINNER IN THE HISTORY OF OSCAR
http://board.okayplayer.com/okp.php?az=show_topic&forum=23&topic_id=37102&mesg_id=37102

This is gonna sound like nepotism, but I think the most archivable is the last one, my post. I think it was the apex of the anti-Crash movement, it has the strongest opinions of all 3 posts, and I personally just think it's pretty damn funny.

I'm torn on the first two. See, I feel the Crash reactions are somewhat symbolic of how PTP feels towards popular "meaningful" movies: at first they love it (the first post), then someone states how strongly they hated it (the second post, which I believe was the first really strong anti-Crash post), then the lovers of the film never show up anymore for fear of mockery and the hatred runs rampant (the last post).

In order of importance of archival, I'd say the last one, then the first one, then the middle one. The last one is the only one I REALLY think should be archived, but I also think it could be really great to have the first one archived too with all the love in it (especially ?uestlove's glowing heartfelt praise for it). The second one... after the original comment, which I think is hilarious and damn near legendary for how much it pissed off some people (who found it representative of the PTP style of reviewing films), there's not much else, so I'd probably be okay with losing that one.

Okay, in hidsight, I think there probably should be something to note the "anti-Crash movement." That was, as you pointed out, a "memorable" time here. However, I think having a dicussion post archived, where discussion actually happened, isn't so bad. So maybe keep the first and the third and axe the middle child.

I think the most memorable part of when Crash came out was the backlash it had ESPECIALLY after the Best Picture win. Your post was the apex, as you said, and I think that one needs to stay.

Keep the discussion - informative, fun read.
Get rid of number 2 - pointless
keep number 3 ("worst best film oscar ever") - If for no other reason than to see Frank Longo pissed. It's just fun reading stuff from folks who are passionate about their haterade.

It should also be noted that while I thought Crash was good (not great, not amazing, not better than DTRT, I just thought it was good), I definitely do not think it should have won best film.

In response to Reply # 0


  

          

It loads the first third of the page, but I get nothing after that. I've tried it on two different computers on two different servers with the same result.
I'm able to pull up specific posts when I do the search feature, but when I try to click on 'PTP Archives', I get the same result as before.
I can open the specific copy/pasted posts in this thread, so I'll probably just contribute about those until I figure out how to resolve this problem.
Sorry about the mix up, you'll be hearing my opinions this week.
Peace

Keep the first one. Maybe 'cause I enjoy reading posts by people who don't like the same movies I do.
Lose the second one. How many Big L quote posts does one board need?

you know, i like Arrested Development - a lot even - but...
http://board.okayplayer.com/okp.php?az=show_topic&forum=23&topic_id=32301&mesg_id=32301
I watched arrested develeopment last night.
http://board.okayplayer.com/okp.php?az=show_topic&forum=23&topic_id=47572&mesg_id=47572

This one is interesting for me. The first one I definitely feel should be archived, but I'm torn on the second. There's definitely some funny bits in there (Rjcc's legendary AD hate, the "My Name is Earl" comeback, The Damaja saying he thought The Contest and The Soup Nazi were "shit"), but I do feel like it's a bit superfluous in some manners.

In terms of archived posts to delete based on the repeat factor, that one would probably be near the end of my list of posts to axe... I dunno, it's still pretty goddamn funny. I'm torn over post #2.

Numero uno goes into criticisms of the show without being so feisty. It actually offers up some good points on both sides without reducing itself simply to back and forth squabbling, i.e., it has real discussion.

Keep 1, Ditch 2.

I prefer it the other way around.
Lose the "I like AD but" post and keep "I just watched AD". That "I just watched AD" post was up on the boards FOREVER. Not much of a reason, but I just enjoyed reading the second one more than the first one.

NBC's the Office > BBC The Office
http://board.okayplayer.com/okp.php?az=show_topic&forum=23&topic_id=33611&mesg_id=33611

I'm not sure which one of these to save. One has more people in it, and more opinions as a result, but it also has more namecalling and less legitimate discussion.

I don't know. Thoughts? I can be convinced either way...

You could make the argument that it's more recent. And funnier. But maybe I'm biased because I've watched waaaay more episodes of BBC Office than NBC Office.

1. Didn't become quite so big a reenactment of the war of 1812.

2. It came first, so any cliche arguements it fell into seemed more fresh at the time.

3. It's not populated by a certain unnamed okp with an annoying penchant for caps locks and general New York arrogance.

I'd get rid of both.
While I'm sure we'd all miss Janey's rules on movie theatre sex, most of the info in the post is outdated.
But then again, I'm sure I could be persuaded otherwise.

In regards to the first two, there's MUCH more in-depth discussion in the second post that really gets down to the detailed nitty-gritty-- what worked, what didn't, what things mean, etc. However, the first does have some insightful things to say about the film and a rare ?uestlove in PTP appearance.

The third post was interesting and would be a very good companion piece to whichever of the first two posts we archive imo.

The final post-- can it.

The second one (Matrix Reloaded *SPOILERS ABOUND* thread) is probably the more archive-worthy because it goes deep into all sorts of possible theroies and interpretations of the movie. Looking at them again, I think we could keep just it and then Matrix Reloaded would be well represented (whereas if you had one in there, you'd be getting short-changed).

The third is interesting, as you say, but I don't know, the trilogy went belly up, so I'm less likely to wanna see a Revolutions post at all, especially a highly abstract one. Similar feeling about four.

Two can win.

Uhhhh... I'm really kinda torn. None goes fully in-depth enough to really be the ultimate City of God post. To be totally honest, someone could say "Save none of these" and I wouldn't gripe. I have no strong opinions to keep any of these three, but I could hear an argument for any one of them.

Because people saw the movie at so many different times (when it first came out to when it got released on DVD all the way to the Oscars), dicsussion has been rather fractured. At the same time, it did become a definitive Reviews / PTP films so I think it needs *something*. I'd go with the first one because it actually came first, and then also 'cause it got the most replies. Discussion throughout may not be exactly sterling, but it's the clear favorite IMO.

I'd have no problem keeping both. The first is a must-keep, and unless there are multiple posts about the plight of black cinema and Bignick's criticisms of the way blacks are portrayed in popular movies, I'd say the second one has value too.

In response to Reply # 42


  

          

So why it should go:

It's a swipe, and the poster who swiped it and carried most of the early "dicussion" hadn't even seen the movie, thus negating most of what he said and swiped in the first place (from a purely argumentative POV). Beyond that, I'm willing to bet whatever great conclusions were arrived at about the state of black film are present in at least half a dozen other archived posts and in threads somewhat routinely on the active board.

The first actually addresses the movie by people who actually saw it. In fact, it then goes into the weaknesses / flaws of black movies just the same.

Swipes, IMO, aren't exactly archive-worthy, even though in this case Nick made some great points. I think the first was much more valuable in the long term.

KEEP BOTH POSTS.
Alot of good reviews that would take way too long to find, plus I thought the convo about the film good.
Can you believe I still haven't seen this movie?

My job just added some responsibilities that I have to handle (without adding to my 'fiscal' responsibilities - the punks). But I'm here, and I'm gonna be getting on it. Still having some trouble loading the archives, so I'll just click on the individual links in this post.

I'd appreciate even MORE suggestions for what to cut. Ricky's links are phenomenally resourceful, for those looking to cosign posts to cut.

Thanks to everyone putting in work though, it really means a lot and will make this process a lot smoother.
