Val Kilmer's the worst.



I must respectful disagree - to the EXTREME.

 


ok, who is your opinion was the worst?


Clowney, err i mean Clooney.


I can respect that choice.  Clooney was indeed terrible.    But I am still curious as to what DuracellEnergizer thinks.


Yep, it's Clooney I find the worst.

His Bruce Wayne was tolerable, but his Batman sucked to infinite depths. I saw none of that gothic darkness or seriousness that I like about Batman in his portrayal at all.

 

That's maybe because THAT ENTIRE FILM WAS CAMP.

What's with Roger Ebert and... sex... recently?
Time

I don't know how I leapt to the conclusion that this guy has creepy sex on his mind no matter what the subject matter.I don't know how I leapt to the conclusion that this guy has creepy sex on his mind no matter what the subject matter.


What a blatant, embarassing inability to comprehend irony.

No, I can't exclude that he was horny for some reason while writing all those critiques, but there is no reason to conclude that based on a few SARDONIC REMARKS.
If I wrote that, I could also find myself rolling my eyes at the bland, uninteresting romance in those movies, maybe just a bit, and then type in some remark along those lines just to be sardonic and nasty, while swinging a few jabs at the rating system, marketing, target audience etc.

Now ESPECIALLY in that last one about alien anatomy, the humor should've come through.

But to a mind compelled to read everything completely straight and literally, yea, Ebert was turned on by the wicked tentacles inside of Aliens' chest, and was dreaming about some slimy, violent Alien & Predator porn.
How else could it be? How far-fetched it must be to assume something like this, based on a paragraph like this! I mean, it's right there, clear as crystal! He said "sex", what more do you want??

*HUGE eyeroll*
I'm done here.

Okay, who actually HATES the Prequels
Time

Heh - what I like about my mind is, it's very eager to relive movies and can forget what came before, or after :D

If I watch the Matrix or something... the first hour, I don't know the mystery behind the Matrix... I don't know that Commander Lock is somewhere down there... I don't know that Morpheus is a deluded crackpot.
My mind just blends it out when I'm watching it :)

Same with SW, I know what happened in the prequels, but at the same time I can watch any of the classic movies and my mind gladly pretends like the other stuff doesn't exist.
Vader isn't Leia's father, he's just a brute pointing a finger at her in that white corridor. The Emperor isn't called Palpatine, he also wasn't a slimy politician once, he's just a mythical dark wizard emanating power and evil.

So I guess I'm kinda lucky that I'm not bothered by whatever came after or before the part I like.
But some parts in the prequels are just unbearable :D

Oh, and leave the C3-P0ns alone, they at least manage to bring out a chuckle or two... I think... the serious ones are just a drag ;)

*facepalm*

I never chuckled at anything C3PO said.  I just got mad.  Thankfully the best fanedits never let him leave the ship.

But, you know, the Ewoks compared to the Gungans, were like fucking Shaft!

Adventures in Raising the Next Generation of Original Star Wars Fans

There seems to be a bit of a double standard here:

1. Star Wars (The Original Trilogy) is not so important or great as to cause you to do much to not ruin it.

2. Star Wars (To include The Prequel Trilogy and the Clone Wars TV Show) is too important to not show your kids.  You should buy them their own PT boxset for their birthdays.

If it's not important, why is it important that I haven't shown the PT to my kids?

It was sarcasm ;))
(In case you let them watch stupid cartoons on TV)


Heh, always had the feeling I'd missed some important bit in that thread... so /bump.

"Well, then my Jedi protector will have to prove how good he is."
With Anakin giving her a creepy sex look from behind.

Just seems so off considering they're going for the "red-blooded male & chaste, responsible woman" plot later on, but this scene looks like it's gonna be some merry romantic teenage trip... then again, they are sitting around in the grass inbetween.

Just LOL at the entire love plot :D

I respect your opinion,  I never meant to imply otherwise.   I'm not really sure why you are getting upset with me.    However, I am fine with agreeing to disagree.



This... is a perfect example of the kinda pleasantries I'm trying to avoid like pestilence :D
It's so... Chris.

No disrespect intended ;)
