seriously, great post Duke. breath of fresh air here at one-liner wars. you've crystallized the fact that it was apples v. oranges when a few simpletons tried comparing you to max, with their cries of foul that you got fist bumps upon arrival, whereas max got a 'take care brush your hair' upon his departure to prison.

the diff seems clear: you guys would probably care less about continuing a scene if the cam suddenly ran out of batteries and died, whereas max would keep on trucking in the automaton motions, cam but an afterthought.
