  1. RIPD - Mighty dissapointed in this one as I was looking forward to it - espicially since it was being bashed as a 'rip off of MIB' which I'm all for ripping off good movies. Sadly, this is definitely the worse movie I've seen in theatres since my comeback. There were parts where I just wished it was over and that despite me worried that at 96 minutes it be too short. The comedy was not funny enough, the action was nowhere near as good as the other summer action blockbusters, and the acting was alright. Some of it was genuinely entertaining others were dreadful. ie. The so called 'romance' between the old man and the RIPD leader was beyond lame. No chemistry just plain forced. The chemistry between Reynolds and his former partner was more believable. I did love the connection between him and his wife. The deadites, however, were lame. Plus, movie was way too short to have such a so called 'save the world' epic story. It was unneeded. I'd say they should have saved it for the sequel but I don't think RIPD really deserves a sequel. Too bad too as the concept could eb cool if handled better.... 5.5/10...
  2. "P.S. For unsee this terrible thing look this video. This is true Finno-Ugric beauty non-corrupted by Scandinavian inbreeding." Why are you such a bigot?
  3. I recently reread The Great Gatsby and To Kill A Mockingbird. Both are still amongst the best. Atticus is probably as close to a perfect human being as possible. Maybe *too* perfect. L0L Plus, anyone who claims that Daisy never loved Gatsby apparantly did not read the book properly. He just shouldn't have asked too much...
  4. Theron is beautiful but most beautiful? Nah. That is like saying I;m the ugliest. I'm ugly but I'm not ugliest.
  5. "Hispanic is white in the same way French or Irish are white." No. Only if you are insane. To say the French and Hispanic are both white is laughable. It is illogical it doesn't make sense. You put say a French and British side by side there is no descernible difference in their skin colour. You put a French person beside a Hispanic there is a difference in skin colour. I guarantee you, you saw me and din't know my background, you could mistake me as most European country even though background wise I'm 90% french, some Indiain, and abunch of European countries mixed in. But, you would never look at me, and say, hey guyz, look at the Hispanic dude. So, don't be silly.
  6. Exactly. Again, nobody is gonna pirate a movie they never even heard of. It doesn't make sense. Period. The potential market simply isn't there. Anyways,.... The Lone Ranger - Nowhere near as bad as people make it out to be. My most hated part is the munching on peanuts... I nearly walked out in firsts cene when the little boy was munching them as my ears felt like theyw eren gonna bleed. Disgusting., I'd rather be raped than listen to that garbage. Why do film/tv makers think it is EVER a good diea to have character eat on screen like that? It is NOT entertaining. PERIOD. On to the meat of the film. I liked it. The guy who played TLR did a heck of a job even when they were ridiculing him for no reason. depp did alright playing his usual character though I actually liked how his backstory was handled. The love interest was fantastic even if it was weird that she somehow had three men wanting her including 2 brothers. Just a question.... was she think of Dan while having sex with his brother when their son was created? The action scenes while over the top and stetched beliveability considering the setting, were entertaining. 7.5/10 P.S. I also find it funny that people continue to think it is okay to be racist towards whites.
  7. Raithe whines about skin showing so he posts a pic with someone showing skin... L0LZ
  8. No. Not when a blockbuster can make 200mil and still be cosnidered a bomb. While an indy film can make maybe a mil and actually still turn a profit. So, your numbers, yet again, are foolishly inept.
  9. That is here and there. It blows your silly point out of the water. You make it sound like blockbusters don't get pirated when they do - at a larger rate. With rarer indie flicks most people aren't even aware of them so they don't bother watching them - either by purchasing them or by stealing them. They just don't care. If you never heard of something why would you bother to steal it? L0L Like your example, I never HEard of that movie until you just mentioned and I'm an internet geek who hears about all sorts of weird indie flicks... so why would I have bothered to steal it 9I don't steal movies but it's a point)? Your logic is illogical.
  10. Except Hollywood blockbusters are pirated an extreme amount too. nice try, though.
  11. "Antje Traue, definitely the hottest woman on earth right now." Not even top 1 million.
  12. The Bill of Rights is man made not 'nature' made. (thoguh I perosnally would argue that everything man made IS natural since man is apart of nature so everything we do - be it something deemed fantastic like a beautiful painting or sacrificing yourself to save someone or something horrific like the holocaust or nuclear weapons is natural). What humans do is as natural as what bears do.
  13. Zimmerman was not acting reasonably that night. Deal with it.
  14. Sharknadow - Defintitely better than your typical B Movie. Kinda helps that the stars were above average though some of the lesser actors were , well, lesser, lol. I'd give it a 6/10
  15. "Just because the media doesn't blow up a story, doesn't mean you don't get help from law enforcement. " I';m not talking about legal help. I'm talking about the typical blaisse attitude that CK illustrates (in a comedic way) in his routine. The idea that anything negative that happens to whites is deserved because of 'past sins' is beyond ridiculous. It is racist. And, when I say racist, I don't mean 'reverse racist' which is a made up word that doesn't even make sense. I have never treated someone differently based on race nor should I be shamed into feeling guilty because of what others did. no more than blacks should be ahsmed that blacks in the past were selling each other as slaves for money. No more should a son or daughter be punished for the crimes of their parents. Plus, as far as race goes, Zimmerman isn't white no matter how people spin it. He is hispanic... but, that doesn't work for the story. He has to be a white guy... yet, when it comes to immigration story people paint republicans as racist towards hispanics... Talk abotu having it both way. Bottom line here is Zimmerman should ahve been found guilty since it is obvious he was aat best criminally negligent. Both him and Martin were in the wrong that night. Martin paid the ultimate price.Zimmerman should pay soem price as well. But, I don't believe that racism really played a aprt in it. And, if it did, it cna be argued that Martin was the racist and a homophobe to boot. L0L
  16. Louis CK is funny but that video shows a down side of the anti white stance in modern world. It is stating clearly that it is okay to be racist against white people. If a white person is murdered, raped, or otherwise hurt... big deal. They were white so they aNd it coming 'cause, hey, at least they were white. L0LZ
  17. "If you want to get angry at the Alexander case, get angry at the minimum sentencing law as it allows prosecutors to play judge and jury." That's a different issue. She should have been found not guilty of attenmtped mruder. She didn't try to murder anyone. t worst it should have been child endarment and unlawful use of a gun. AT WORST.
  18. "the woman in question fired the gun in the general direction of her CHILDREN and did so after having got away the first time. Warning shots, no matter what that stupid ****head who is our current Vice President might say, are almost always illegal. The only possible exception I can think of would be threat of mob violence. Moreover, SYG applies to percieved imminent threat. You are not allowed to go away and then come back and shoot at someone." You are evil. the woman did nothing wrong and she did not shoot in the 'general direction of her children'. That's a blatant lie. I guess you wanted the husband to murder the wife. That is sick. She should spend ZERO days in prison.
  19. "Prosecution witness Rachel Jeantel, speaking to Piers Morgan on CNN last night, explained that George Zimmerman had misunderstood the beating he was receiving from Trayvon Martin, and so had the jury in his trial. Zimmerman was not facing a potentially life-threatening "bashing," but simply a "whoop-ass." They don't understand, they understand, "Oh, he would just bash, or was kill." When somebody bash somebody, like, blood people, trust me, in the area I live, that's not bashing. That's just called "whoop-ass." You just got your ass whooped. That's what it is. It was Zimmerman's own fault for not understanding the cultural context in which he was being attacked. Morgan tried to save Jeantel's statement by asking her whether Martin would have "whooped ass" in self-defense. But the damage was done. For a split second, the camera caught a member of the audience reacting in shock, her jaw dropping at Jeantel's admission--and her apparent expectation that Zimmerman should have understood the supposed cultural practice of "whoop-ass," rather than acting to protect his own life. That was one of the prosecution's 'star witnesses'. She also admitted to be a racist and a homophobe on the stand. No wonder they lost. L0L P.S. Also, to counter upcoming lawsuits against him, Zimmerman should look into suing a bunch of people who harassed, threatened, smeared his name and did all sorts of nasty things in a blatant attempt to destroy his name. I mean, peeps labeled him white! That's the biggest insult in 2013!!!
  20. The problem is they only plan to step in because of the media hype/PC crap. Just look at the idiots claiming this was ahate crime of white on black when Zimmeran isn't even white. No way would the KKK accept Zimmerman in their group. The only time I think the state should get a 'second chance' if there's actual new evidence that could be seen to have a shot at reasonably changing the jurors' decision. This is just an act of a butthurt Federal punk.
  21. "Was there an explanation during the trial for why a big man like Zimmerman couldn't overpower a 15/17-year old?" The 17 year old was said to be in much betetr shape. The civil trial is sucha dumb idea. If someone is found i9nnocent they shouldn't be able to be dragged to some lesser court where proof doesn't really matter. Plus, the Federal Court and crap are trhetaening to jump in because they didn't get the result they wanted and need to do something to prove the PC crap.
  22. I don't think it being 'expensive' would neccessarily hurt it - as long as it is advertised properly, put together well, and have the right mix well known and 'cheap' talent to do it. The film(s) certainly wouldn't cost more than certain over the top pricey movies.
  23. Safe House - Good action thriller. Denzel does a good job basically playing earlier roles. Ryan reynolds is fantastic in a rather gritty role. Not surprising as I know he's capable of it. 7.5/10 Hit & Run - Nice slightly comedy-action here. I love the different take on the antagonist. The slightly dark humour was decidedly un PC. L0L 7.5/10
  24. "He had a confrontation with someone who was trespassing." Except Martin wasn't trespassing. He was there via invite. I do laugh at people making this a white vs black thing since Zimmerman is not white. I'll be honest, I can understand Zimmerman not being found guilty of murder but surely he was guilty of something. To me, manslaughter could have been argued if the prosecuters weren't too busy being idiots and trying to play the political media game.
  25. They sound like Bitter Betties who are crying because they are egotistcial and need everyone to pay attention to them. Pathetic.
