lol.. conclusion... mostly waffle...
I was thinking you would be onto something here and my opinions on the locks as a whole group would improve, but by the end this sounded like the speech between the architect and Neo in the matrix 2... in your efforts to sound highly academic and professional (funny considering those google images in the background XD) I'd wager you barely understood that yourself by the end if at all!
Saying something isn't a flash may be used too much around here, but over half the users here wouldn't exactly win any intelligence tests...
The issue I assumbe you were discussing was it's more a case of anyone can do flash movies but not anyone can do it well... it's a versatile program but as with any it has it's limits, however if a movie has genuine effort put into it (more then a couple days worth unless they work flat out -_-) it still counts as a flash movie... and that's putting meaning aside and not examining the meanings of the flash movie content... and that considered too locky guys.... could fill a fucking book you could go on that long about it...
Anyways I was hoping to be enlightened by this... when in fact the parts that weren't waffle I already knew! But hey whatever to each their own... ¬_¬
