I would jump in and join this and back you up, but that particular poster and I have gone back A LOT in the last week, and I'm willing to bet they would simply assume I'm jumping on the dogpile :) But you're right, they have particular opinions, and in this case, is completely wrong. McGee very clearly has to move to the edge and look down to see where Tony is hanging, seeing as how they were supposed to be looking at the cars and not down the middle. And McGee IMMEDIATELY jumped into action.

It's not bashing: it's pointing out their inconsistencies and calling them on seeing things wrong. that particular aspect of the scene isn't "left up to the viewers interpretation." McGee wasn't where he could see what was happening, but this particular poster won't/can't see it. I would think about whether or not you want the conversation to become about how you really want to change their opinion, with them not realizing they are acting the same way, intention or not.

I'm finding the CBS boards/forums really quite interesting, and incredibly too distracting for my own good :)
