You just chose Accept because of Kate Beckinsale. Also, by that rationale I choose Kor and the hypnotic arse gif.

Creating such a thread and not stating your own favourite posters is stupid.

I like old movie posters.

While the graphics are indeed sweet, the facial expressions are still lacking.

That scene with Salma Hayek's leg was awesome.

And anyway facial expressions are very hard to do. That lady's smile for example, looks clearly artificial. I still remember the whole movie theater laughing when the lead character in Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within pulled off a sad face.

I don't get this "deserve to die" stuff. Unless there's a practical point to the killing, why do it at all?

Cute stuff. I'd like to point out that it's "niece" not "neice" you silly american peoples.

I'm the philosopher.

You should try getting laid. :D I'm playing N.

You mean ass. :D

No, I don't. First you say that you don't believe in absolute morality, and then you say you do. I don't get it.

I own and have read Beyond Good And Evil, thank you.

You don't believe in Evil but you believe in Good and Bad, and Right and Wrong? I'm going to wait for to realize the idiocy of what you just said.

So you 're saying that because one person, a few days ago did a really bastardly thing people will always be fundamentally evil? That makes no sense.

Why are you never going to have a 100% success ratio?

The important bit here is not the inherently violent nature of man, but the belief that we cannot change. That's just daft.

So you believe that mankind cannot change and that we are all fundamentally rat bastards who can never look beyond their own noses?

Its not quite that simple. Currently it costs a lot more to use the Death penalty than to imprison someone for 40 years or more, but that is because of the insane amount of checks, balances and red tape that goes along with it. However when I reference Capital Punishment I am not speaking of the exact system we have in place at the moment, more rather hearing the verdict and taking "old yella" out the back to a merciful end at the barrel of a shotgun. Someone goes on death row they are there for a Life Sentence before they actually face the chair, most people sentences to death die in prison during the long wait and the US actually Kills far less people than you would think. The Number of people that face the Electric Chair is relatively few, even in states such as Texas. That's the whole system of applying the death penalty in the US that's stupid, it's not the death penalty that is expensive in itself. Besides, that's just more reason to abolish the death penalty. By the way, if a guy killed your daughter you feel you should have the right to dispose of him as you see fit, right? Now imagine that specific guy had a family of his own, doesn't his family, by your logic, also have right to kill you after you murder him?

You say that some bad things are needed for things to function normally. Would you care to elaborate on that? How is war needed, for example? More importantly, how is the death penalty needed?

We're talking about published fiction that's been read by millions of people, not something written by some random kid in school. Also, I'd like to think I was already a better writer than that when I was 15. But that's just biased opinion, of course.

But they're certainly cheaper than keeping a guy in prison for 30 years (or whatever). Besides, it only takes one cheap bullet to kill a man.

But the bits of Eragon I've read were horrifyingly written. I mean, it's not even competent. And besides there's plenty of books written for pre-teen audiences that aren't so awfully written as Eragon. Also, the whole story seems to have been lifted from Star Wars. Of course, because the book is so bad, it makes it kind of pointless to criticize it in any serious manner.

The way I see it, the only possible justification for the death penalty is economical. Meaning it's cheaper to kill criminals than to keep them in prison. Apart from that, there's no plausible reason for it other than vengeance. And vengeance should never be the basis for any modern judicial system.
