The analogies.

[Clint Wardlow]

[Jeremy Garchow] “There are more car analogies running around about the CC.”

That is because we love our cars. So much that we think everything everywhere somehow relates to our cars. A car is not so much a mode of transportation as a universal metaphor for all human experience from the beginning of time to present. I am just waiting for the day when it moves from car to hovercraft.

I see that you haven’t really given fcpx a shot, then.

Here’s a recent FCPX news story: https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2013/05/flying-car-crashes-near-elementary-school-in-canada/

Franz, how are we doing? Are the metaphors OK with you today?

Ah…now imaging if everyone had a flying car. It’s just not like they used to show it in Popular Science magazine…

Hey since this is thread about analogies, thought I would come up with another. Since this a site aimed at video editors I think it is apropos to bring up a movie analogy (and also a history one as well).

Maybe Adobe sees itself like the British Empire of the 1880s and their stance on the CC like its own Rourke’s Drift (as detailed in the classic movie Zulu). The PR department is the 1st/24th Foot defending against the Zulu hoard (CC detractors). They just need to pile the mealy bags high enough and hold out long enough. The Zulu hoard will give up and go away.

Then it is Victoria Crosses(or the Adobe equivalent)for everybody.

Or maybe I have too much time on my hands today.

CC is like George Steinbrenner calling pitches from the luxury box.

Are you that dude from Family Guy that has seen every movie? His name is Carl.

No, but I have seen Zulu. Also, Zulu Dawn.
