US Election 2016
It's Trump leading the charge with Carson (who seems to be a cleric) and Christie against the mainstream media, who is emerging underneath the bridge, led by someone i do not recognize with El Rato with a cheese on his head and wife on his side in the background. Behind Carson you can spot Ann Coulter with a sniper rifle. Meanwhile the druid Bernie is summoning his birds against Hillary and what looks like the DNC chair. Meanwhile, lady America seems to be amused. It's beautiful.

He's sending his little birds with their sharp beaks to burst her own glass ceiling. I think.

Actually, they did quite well. The three movies made a combined ~$1.58 billion on a combined ~$560 million budget. The least profitable was the second movie and it still made over $180 million in profit. The series hasn't been finished yet due to some unfortunate hang ups with copyrights and production rights, but there is supposed to be more Narnia movies. Not with the same production company though (due to those rights issues), and at this point very likely not with the same stars. Both also likely unfortunate things. Odd as it may seem that's not considered profitable enough. It's 'only' 60 million profit per movie, on a blockbuster scale that's barely worth getting out of bed for when they wanted LotR numbers; ~2 times the box office on barely over half the budget. Rights issues have a tendency to disappear when movies are profitable in a big scale, as happened with LotR -> The Hobbit. And in that case The Hobbit(s) were made despite Jackson suing New Line Cinema, who he made LotR with. Though some might wish they had been tied up in legal problems... Hollywood accounting strikes again, i see. For example, episode VII made ~2 billion on the box office, but that was simply not enough as Disney had expected about 4 billion. In that way, it was a total "failure".- Daisy Ridley [Rey in Stars Wars] Confirms Talks To Play Lara Croft in 'Tomb Raider' Reboot

Ok, this has to be one of the few videos that actually tries to understand why the phenomenon Trump even exist to begin with, without dwelving into infantile platitudes like "hate", "-ism" and such. Most importantly is 3:10-3:52. Leaders in the EU should take heed as well or they will face the same trouble.- US Election 2016
Here you have everything in one short video: Rigged electoral system, influence of the special interests of the military-industrial sector, the treatment Ron Paul, stagnated wages, the treatment of Bernie and even a nod to him for identifying the problems.- Star Wars: Rogue One

At the same time, some teenage fiction/children's novels can explore deeper themes and be much better written than adult (="mature") literature. What i am getting at is that Hunger Games is guilty of being both bland and targeted to teenagers, while works like "The Lion, the witch and the wardrobe" by C.S. Lewis is not bland, but still for children.- Star Wars: Rogue One
Based on only watching the first movie, the "Hunger Game" in Hunger Games was the most underwhelming with the tacky drama and toned down violence, while the most interesting was the superfluous dress-up and presentation of the contestants. Battle Royale on the other hand seemed to explore certain themes more seriously, like the mental anguish of having to kill your own friend in order to survive, how certain packs are emerging under extreme stress and a commentary on the morals in society in the background. It's like comparing teenage with adult in terms of literature really.- Leonard Boyarsky joins Obsidian

First Sanders got his votes socialized and now Colorado RNC skipped their caucus completely, effectively giving 34 delegates to Cruz without a single vote casted. http://archive.is/al78o ...and of course everything went as good as the DNC primary in Arizona: http://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2016/04/disgusting-colorado-trump-delegate-scratched-list-gop-convention-cruzers-take-delegates/- Gender equality
The poster in question is clearly using the word "misogynic" as a killing word to end the conversation, not as a description of an attitude in a man. It's usually employed by the intellectually stunted when they cannot cope or understand on how to express themselves, so they use these killing words in hope of ending the conversation and the burden on proof is on you on(you guys all know what kind of words there are) to show that you're not the killing word that they accuse you of. You would do better not to care about disingenuous twats like that and treat them accordingly. In the words of our better philosophers of our time, tell the poster to: "Blow it out your ass."- Why Communism Is Coming Back, and Guaranteed Basic Income Will Be Inevitable

While i might play mostly different kinds of metal on my electric guitars, i always go back to Knopfler now and then for pure creative joy. His style of playing simply has that base swing that you cannot help not to play along with. Every time i feel like i have no inspiration, i always put on some Dire Straits and play along with a childish bliss.

"I have friends ashamed of politician guy X" weighs little as an argument for or against anyone. The mongols still hold Gengis Khan in a quite high regard despite he was the destroyer of civilizations, so now what? However, "i do not support candidate X because reason Y will not be beneficial for nation Z" does.- US Election 2016
http://forums.obsidian.net/topic/85040-us-elections-2016/?p=1794586 It was a rule put in place in 2012 in order to **** with Ron Paul and make it look like the party was united behind Mitt Romney. Now it is the other way around and the party thinks that it is open season against Trump. - Star Wars: Rogue One
