After all, Altman was considered one of the greatest living American filmmakers. The subject of this thread is what inspired that post by Spiwak, as Altman recently had a new film released. I don't believe he meant to offend anyone.

I took the comment the way it felt like it was meant to me - seriously. If it was only meant jokingly, I have a difficult time reading that in some people. I wouldn't have said anything even though the original post ticked me off but when Terabin replied - 'I give a shit' followed by Spiwak's correcting of his own post, that's when I decided to say something because it felt like it was a serious comment to me. Also, whatever Spiwak meant, he's the only one who knows for sure. And Spiwak's post was inspired by Lucien's who posted on his death to begin with (which I obviously had no problem with). That's all I'm going to say about it.
