    Django Unchained

    Lots of makeup. "Cut hand scene" was an accident and Leo stayed in character.

    Django Unchained

    If there were a spectrum of movie watchers, I'd be towards the Szila end. With that said, I loved the movie, I'm a big QT fan and I'm sure I give him more credit (on a film snob level) than Szila does. I thought Django was Tarentino's least stylishly interesting film but also his most...

    Would you want to know?

    I'm not sure I understand the OP. Are you stipulating that as a cost of knowing we would necessarily feel apathetic about everything (i.e. you can fly but only if you give up your thumbs) or are you stating your opinion of our probable reaction to knowing?

    The Hobbit

    Shorten the bolded. Cut the warg/rabbit and the storm giants. By dwarf introduction scene I mean when the dwarves show up at Bilbo's house, not the flashback to the sacking of the mountain city.

    The Hobbit

    I read The Hobbit back in middle school but I don't remember it much at all. I wish Jackson had cut some of it, much like he cut Tom Bombadil from the LOTR movies. If not that, he could have at least shortened some scenes. Candidates include: the warg/rabbit scene, the troll scene, the...

    The Hobbit

    I saw it tonight (2D, 24 fps) and enjoyed it but wasn't blown away. 3 stars, 6 out of 10, that sort of thing. The bad: It was too long and I found myself growing bored at times. The first 1/3 of the movie could have been cut heavily. It ran a problem with repetitiveness, where the group...

    Murders and Shootings

    If your intention was to kill as many 6 years olds as possible, would you use a knife or a gun? If you had a choice, would you rather be stabbed or shot? The whole knife thing is ridiculous. Guns are more efficient tools. Cops carry guns. Soldiers carry guns. Not knives.

    Murders and Shootings

    From what I've read this morning, shooter was a honor roll nerd and goth kid who,during high school, held LAN parties with the tech club. His mother was not a teacher at the school but police believe that shooter went to elementary school there himself. Also, his brother reportedly told police...

    Banning guns is completely unrealistic. The necessary amendment to the Constitution would not pass. If you are just talking about changes you would implement if you were king for a day, then my apologies.

    Murders and Shootings

    I think it's incredibly naive to believe there is a single source to this problem. It is almost certainly overdetermined. But guns -- their efficiency and availability -- are certainly part of the problem. And we won't fix media over-exposure, which is another part of the problem, because of...

    I don't think he's a comp. hero, but do remember his nukes are pure dmg most of the time. And his 15% stat reduction is useful against carries. He's a lot of fun in pubs so far, but that may just be because people aren't respecting him yet.

    Gunman opens fire at Oregon mall outside of Portland

    I don't understand why you find the lack of classes weird. Many rights are not covered in their own high school classes. Someone above mentioned gun death statistics. Those statistics often include a large number of suicides.

    Thank you Draegan, Goodbye FOH

    I could be missing some of it, but I don't think there's really all that much to it. First, Tyen and Trexx were asshats for a couple months and upset a bunch of people. Then, FoH became infested with malware. Chrome wouldn't let you visit the site without clicking through various warnings etc...

    Thank you Draegan, Goodbye FOH

    I guess it's fitting that a mod's g/f, and his treatment of her, caused a bunch of drama resulting in the dissolution of FoH. It started with a guild and it ended like a guild. Between the stalkers, the creeps, the manginas, the trolls and the ass burgers, I never thought Tyen would end up the...

    The Walking Dead

    I'm with Cutlery on this one. It doesn't make sense to spend so much time developing Rick only to kill him off. And who would be leader after that? Michonne and Carl are the only ones that really make sense, character wise, and both would be problematic.

    Yes, I know. That's part of the reason I was concerned. If they were German then picking a German name would be less suspicious to me. And of course, there are a number of non-German NSBM bands, so simply being French does not alleviate my concerns. Indeed, I think France has seen a rise in...
