Jeff Ream Posted September 20, 2019 Share Posted September 20, 2019 5 hours ago, Continental said: I think recent announcements are so much more promising than past years. So I'm optimistic. The challenge I have is the Cadets that I love so much vs. wtf is going on with modern programming. I really am so sick of props and the little they add. i'll hope for the best, and you have a lot of folks here with experience working together which helps. but lets be honest, all announcements in the fall are going to be positive. name a corps that announced stuff and said "well, we hope we don't suck"?

So what other corps announced the acquisition of Jay Bocook as well as the Bluecoats brass caption head? I think that goes beyond the normal staff announcement hype. But that's just me and everyone has opinions. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every guard she was in charge of was spectacular. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeff - you are usually a straight-shooter, but this is hardly "any" announcement - the staff is caption loaded with top DCI talent and tons of HOFs -- plus the techs announced so far are ridiculous good. So - while I and everyone here seem to be in "wait and see mode" - it's hard not to characterize the staff line up as ridiculously positive Edited September 20, 2019 by George Dixon 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I apologize if I stated incorrect information. I was under the understanding that Matt was the caption head at Bluecoats. Thanks for the clarification. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But that's just me and everyone has opinions. staff alone doesn't do it all. they have to design a cohesive package and get the kids to pull it off. See SCV 17 and 19.

But anymore, i'm a skeptic til I see it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
