Thor 2 and IM3 both had significant depth in their plot, just not much in the way of character development. What this movie, Winter Soldier, and (to a lesser extent) Avengers had over all the other MCU movies is varying degrees of character development. Ruffalo steals the show in Avengers...

Stupid does indeed outbreed smart. See Idiocracy. Ordinarily, natural selection balances this since the idiots die at a much higher rate, but we have removed natural selection as the primary determinant of evolutionary success in the human race, so the retard superstition brigade shits out...

How desperate if Sorbo for a paycheck that he had to do this film? He couldn't get a part in the Atlas Shrugged trilogy or something?

This is a place of venting and catharsis. Even the happily married people (Lindz, myself, Tuco?) did not get there overnight and like passing on advice. Plus seeing someone else's trainwrecks makes enduring your own not as bad.

@Lithose- You are essentially arguing in favor of my point, which is that hitting these schools/hospitals was intentional. The merits of doing so are a separate issue, but I maintain that a country that was actually concerned with containing civilian casualties would eat the shit sandwich and...

I have not seen this yet, but I will say at the theatre we went to see Guardians at the second time, people coming out of this one did not look too happy. That is usually not a good sign.

I bet you are a lot of fun to be around.

I like the Avengers and it certainly had a better cast, but really this movie is superior to it. Better pacing, better humor, better action, and (it pains me to say this as a Whedon Dick Rider) better dialog. Both are good movies, cut from the same cloth, but this one is just simply more fun.

Toward the end of the cold war, that pretty much ended. Then the John Pollard thing happened. Then Israel sold a bunch of nuclear tech to China. There is actually a fair amount of international journalism outlying their current diplomatic relationship with Putin out there, as well. They may...

Separate issue and Israel and the Soviets were actually pretty tight, behind the scenes. Israel snagged them some of our nuclear sub tech, in fact, among other things.

Just because someone hates Israel does not mean they hate the Jews. Those are two separate and distinct things, with overlaps, though Israel most certainly likes to pretend otherwise. If I say I hate Saudi Arabia does that mean I hate all Arabs everywhere? Fun Fact: The Saudis pull a lot...

I am sure it did. But as I am an atheist I could care less who stoked the fires of anti-Semitism prior to the 20th century as the question I was answering was specifically about Holocaust guilt. I was specifically saying that the entire Jewish people were getting raged on more than normal...

Anti-Semitism was a real big thing in the early 20th century, world wide. No one really gave a fuck about the Nazis crushing the Jewish people (or the Russians), because EVERYONE hated them at that time. Then all the shit involving the Holocaust got out and people felt pretty shitty about...

They want the fuckups to happen. Having more kids and brainwashing them young is the only way anyone ever joins their church, anymore. And they are losing a breeding war with the Mormons.

Its the first play in the book for defending Israel. They even called Jon Stewart an anti-Semite for being critical of Israel at one point. And just so we are clear, I (as a German) have nothing against Jewish people. Israel, however, are a bunch of fuckers who do not hesitate to screw...

Catholics get all sorts of crazy shit pounded into them as children that causes them to rationalize bullshit like that, especially the women. There is no better freaky lay than a catholic girl who finally gets out from under her parents roof, though (except maybe a nurse), but there is a huge...

You are already occupying their soil. You sack up and do a sweep of the city for munitions. If the IDF really wanted to snuff out the tunnels, this would kill two birds with one stone. With zero electricity and martial law in place, there is not exactly a lot of ways for Hamas to move their...

Actually for the amount of ordinance we put in the air in Iraq, civilian casualties were amazingly low. Most happened in the clean up after "Mission Accomplished", actually. And the Mexico thing is a shitty analogy, as I am sure a lot of the indigenous populations of Texas and California...

This. I am sure there is a ton of other bullshit that Catholics are supposed to be doing/not doing that she is selectively ignoring, too.

I am not confused on the subject. You don't rack up a 1K + civilian count in a weeks time if you are actively trying to avoid doing so, especially with drones to confirm targets up to the moment of launch authorization. One off incidents can be chalked up to mechanical failure, ignorance, and...

So the Israelis can avoid bombing out a hotel for rich people they make money on but can't manage to avoid fragging a bunch of kids?

Here is the thing. Israel clearly is using drones to recon the area extensively. So it follows that any casualties are either willful or incompetent, at least at the level of collateral damage we are seeing. You can't tell me they dropped that last school building without at least one guy...

Yeah fucking with Israel is a fools errand because they are both a nuclear power and they are fairly ruthless in retaliating against those who even think about it. The only powers in the area with the resources to even consider it also have a vested interest in the current status quo. Plus...

Maybe if Israel wasn't strangling that area to death and supplies could freely enter the area there would not be a buck to be made in smuggling shit in. I bet a lot of the people making money off of the Palestinian situation are in fact Israelis, not just the ones into the organ harvesting thing.

I bet by the end of the year GOTG will crush everything else. Its a really good movie and worth repeat viewings. Transformers just has a built in audience, i.e. retards. The more disappointing thing to me is how ASM2 did better than Xmen.

I am sure the first neg is Wombat. Dude has been dick riding Israel pretty damn relentlessly his entire posting history. In other news, any bets on who breaks the cease fire being brokered first and how long it takes? My money says, Israel no later than the end of the week. They cratered a...

Get clipped. Unless your ego/thrills preclude you from shooting blanks, its one day of slight discomfort to offset a lot of possible hardships. If you don't mind my asking, why is your wife so massively against BC? Mine is on the Nuva Ring and actually enjoys not being batshit every 28 days...

I am a classics guy since that was the porn when I was a teenager. Lords, Canyon, and Ginger Lynn were the girls to fap to back then. Now there are so many porn people that its hard for any of them to stand out.

Remember that part of this mass appeal is from them adapting the source material into something less convoluted and more accessible to the general audience. There is no way they were going to make Nova work for the average person who only has a passing knowledge of comic books. Look at how...

@Nester- We had some friends go through that and they dumped something like over a quarter mil into fertility treatments and came up empty. My wife and I have zero plans to ever have kids and mentioning that to them sort of made them bitter at us. Of course their situation was made worse by...

It's shit to you because you have never been married, much less seriously contemplated raising a child. But yet you think you somehow have superior knowledge because you read some douchebag dating subreddits and have been able to score granola eating hippy girls who are impressed with your...

If you are not doing anything else to draw ire at work, then you are not likely to get pinched for porn surfing. What will happen is if you piss someone off and they want to can your ass for something else, they will check your browsing to see if they can nail you there.

I believe he is referring to dating.

I am guessing that, given your nature, you were probably a great deal more fiscally and martially stable than most 20 somethings when the first kid came into the picture, though. Some people make babies without thinking through all the responsibilities or consequences.

@Noodle- My bad if its a health concern, but you have discussed other emotional marital concerns in the thread before, so I thought it was along those lines. There are situations where people are simply unable to have children, however, so be ready for that. There was someone else in this...

Yeah in my personal experience, any girl who gets married young and then wants kids right away is doing both to cover up for something or (worse) just trying to fit some fucked up expectation that got pounded into her by her upbringing. Having kids to try and cover up other issues is the...

Yeah, really, you take the good with the bad. Even shit posts are vital cogs in the internet drama experience, unless they are ones whining about shit posts, that is.

Having kids early is a mistake, especially if its the wife who is pressuring for it. This is code for "I want to stay home and watch TV while ignoring the kid all day for the next 18 years." basically. If money is tight without the kid, WAIT. Plus, once you shit out the fuck trophy, her...

Aside from WKRP, nothing good has ever come from Cincinnati. Ask any Bengals fan. As for the a_skeleton_03 stuff, is anyone even remotely surprised by any of it? Two extremely selfish self absorbed people using each other to get what they want is hardly earth shattering. Neither is Rav...

Brad. Lori has nicer tits and they were not even unity assets. As for fishing for more pics, a_skeleton_03 would have to be really dumb to even bother if that were the case. Her fucking cooter is already posted in this thread for all to see. Short of her starring in a Fedor gif, what the...
