Possessed

Star Wars and Citizen Kane are both unique and amazing movies but I’m not shocked when someone likes one but not the other.

There’s a difference between sex as part of the story and nudity because BOOBIES!!!

It may come as a surprise to you but boobs are extremely common. And so is nudity in daily life. So they are essential in terms of authenticity.

Outside of actual sexual encounters, I wouldn’t say that I’ve encountered naked people all that often. Maybe it’s because I don’t peep, but who knows.

You care for Led Zeppelin but not Styx???

Considering how incredibly different they are, I don’t see how that’s hard to understand.

People will probably say the next Star Trek film is too much like Star Trek.

I would be more likely to say I respect Styx but didn’t care for their music, but since the precedent of “Music I don’t like is shit” has already been set there you go.

By the way I don’t really agree with any of LH’s arguments about it. I don’t even like it a ton, I just happen to enjoy it once in a while for whatever reason when I’m in a bad mood.

Collective Soul’s Self titled or “Blue” album is the last I’ve listened to.

I’m okay with listening to music that’s not geared for people who are in their early 40’s and pretentious teens who want to be in their early 40’s. Also my shit has actual content. Maybe not lyrically but riff, solo and drums wise your dad music can’t really compete.

Lol most of the people in the bands we’ve talked about are at LEAST in their 40’s. Morbid Angel’s first album was 1988, Kreator’s album we’ve discussed was in 1986, Slayer started in 1983.

That being said, just because I happen to enjoy thrash and death metal does not mean I don’t also listen to other types of music, and I don’t even consider it one of my favorite types of music. I just enjoy it some, and have commented on Lord Haseo’s posts about it simply because I don’t know anybody else that enjoys them.

Stevie Ray Vaughan is my favorite musician of all time, one of my favorite bands is Led Zeppelin. I enjoy slow blues and classic rock such as LZ, Alice Cooper, Aerosmith and the like.

Also one of my favorite bands is Collective Soul, a pop/rock band.

I love so much music outside of metal.

But Styx sucks.

I’m sorry to hear that.

Cursing and sex/nudity always take me out of a movie and detract from the enjoyment. Neither of those things offend me, I just don’t really think they have a place in art except in some cases of nudity in paintings and such.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with nudity. It is funny how so many morons easily tolerate violence (which is present in so many films) and at the same time do not tolerate nudity (or sex).

Which part of the concept “they don’t offend me but they take me out of the film” was confusing to you?

Also comedies are an exception to the cursing rule in my opinion. (Not saying my opinion means anything)

No wait, that doesn’t work there.

What about on your movies?

Indeed.

generalfrevious pillow-talk thread

Ftfy

Plot twist: Luke has become feral.

I’ve never seen a James Bond film.

JDownloader is more better-er.

Meh, I was hoping it would feature generalfrevious saying something insane.

What’s the 'general grevious pillow thread"?

Could you imagine pillow talk with that guy.

The only two production flaws I ever noticed in ANH before the internet pointed them all out to me were the two bad jump cuts when igniting lightsabers. (Luke in obiwans hut and obiwan on the death star.) yes I see there are others now but only because of the internet.

What thread are you folks talking about? I’m scared to visit the general star wars forum anymore.

Ripping corpse and pleasure to kill are the only two Kreator songs in General that I like. But I like them a lot. Strange.

I did use to have a shirt for PTK though, cuz I just couldn’t get over how cool it was.

The contrast/white levels of the 2004 transfer bothers me way more than the color. Everything looks so dim and the sabers never have a white core.

They are basically squids and we know what that means.

But not captain Kirk.

Wtf are you smoking? I spelled it the same as you spelled in the thread title and the way harmy spells it. If you at some point changed your mind on how it’s spelled I honestly wasn’t aware. It was an honest question and I wasn’t trolling.

It honestly is a misunderstanding. That being said, based on your reaction to it I’m really not all that sorry.
