    V for Vendetta

    I love IMAX, but the last time I went was the last Harry Potter movie. It was very good, but I started cramping up at the very end. Long movie.

    2006 NFL Off-Season

    Moulds to Eagles could work. I'm far more concerned about the stupid Burleson/'Hawks deal, and I LIKE Burleson. I have a friend who raced against that bastard. I suppose it's injury insurance. That's a LOT to spend on injury insurance.

    And We'll be able to converse in peace. Evander and Leena aren't fucking close to fanofcoils. Leena can be a bitch, fine. If people didn't cream over her avatars, it wouldn't be an issue. I've only seen her once going off where it was unwaranted. And that was in HD. She knows far more about sports than I do. Evander can be a dick, but he is certainly not a troll. He's opinionated. He tries to back his shit up. And I think he has some unique, good takes on the NFL. If fanofcoil/fishyswa wants to make another dumbass account, ban him again simple. Look at the V thread. People actually want to talk about that movie.

    V for Vendetta

    That said, a really good adaptation, IMO.

    V for Vendetta

    Yeah, the kiss was pretty corny. As I said, Evey debating unmasking V is SO much more effective, and will probably be in the Director's cut. It's a pretty essential scene they left out.

    THIEF

    Rooker is Henry, right? THERE's a guy that should've had more parts. Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer is a fucking terrifying movie. One of the best horror movies ever.

    THIEF

    How was Thief? I have very limited cable. (actually cheaper to have with internet) Was it good? It's Monday! I'm retarded. I'm still looking forward to this show.

    V for Vendetta

    OH SHIT! We can talk about the movie! I really liked this movie! No scene was wasted, the matrix knife scene was actually really cool. The previous action scenes with V were unsettling though, it definitely establishes him as a madman. (especially that close-up knifing of the kid at the station) As i said before, I think they'll have at least 10 minutes of scenes on the DVD. V was a sick fuck, and that's what matters. The ends may justify the means, but his means are BRUTAL. He's charming as hell, but when push comes to shove, he's a madman. I thought he was definitely a grey area. Just like Sin City.

    I will drown fanofcoils in my magnifecent cock. I no longer give two tugs of a dead dog's dick about that troll. Carry on, you piece of shit.

    Who do you think is the worst poster on the board?

    Leading the charge.

    V for Vendetta

    Because you don't. Blondie and Evey are very similar? One is, as a previous poster said, a deus ex Machina who drives the protaganist's actions. Evey shapes V, and changes him. She is an actual character in the movie, that changes V. He's already driven. Ban.

    Fine. I'll PM someone.

    And if Leena's ever a bitch, it's usually an overreaction to someone trash-talking her. And in HD. EDIT: Not kidding, please ban fanofcoils.

    You just have no conception of the phrase 'very similar'. God, I hope they ban you.

    Leena keeps the shit-talking to HD, which it's meant to take place. I don't see her derailing threads in Sports or LSD or anywhere else.

    V for Vendetta

    Yeah, I accidentally cut some of my text there that so it made no sense. I meant to say: 'exaggerating' (I would prefer the word misusing the word 'clone' is like 'exaggerating' the word 'literally', it makes the use of the word complete incorrect. And while adapting from a comic book about superheroes may make a movies similar, the graphic novels V and the 3 Sin City books 'Sin City' are taken from are almost polar opposites. V is about a mad master manipulator. He is verbose, articulate and works in the shadows. He takes in a young girl and irrevokably changes her life to see the world as he does, and fights to take down an entire corrupt government. He is truly a morally ambivalent character. Sin City is about a bunch of tough guys, who get by sheerly on their guts, toughness and cleverness. They are probably the most visual, least wordy comics I've read. However, the main characters all follow an iron-clad code of ethics that definitely make them heroes. You never really wonder if they're in the right like you do with V.

    V for Vendetta

    The word 'clone' has a very specific use. It means 'an exact copy, or a very close copy.' Misusing 'Exaggerating' it is like misusing the word 'literally.' Calling V a Sin City clone because it has a dark color pallette, (something that is only a very small part of creating a movie's tone) and both movies have violence (though Sin City is a much, much, more violent movie) is simply ridiculous. Of color pallette is the most important element of movies, are all black & white movies the same? Psycho and Un Chien Andelou are both violent, and they have the EXACT SAME color pallette, they must be clones!

    The Shield, season 5, official thread

    Overall, a great season, much better than Season 4, IMO. Glen Close was great, but her character was more 'OMG celebrity on cult show!', in that she didn't really mean anything in the long run. And none of the main characters grew as a result of her geting so much screen time. Much different this time around. Kavenaugh was the driving force behind the plot, so his scenes didn't seem wasted. The Strike Team finally imploded, and we finally have real tension between Dutch and Caludette.

    THIEF

    By the way, Braugher looks like he's barely aged since Homocide. Compare that to Kyle Secor (Bayliss), who was Jake Kane on Veronica Mars. I didn't even recognize him. Don't forget it's got Ann Veal!

    Neither will I. Way too soon, guys. I wouldn't even watch Over There.

    You still can't convince me he doesn't purposely derail threads. He simply makes outrageous claims. People respond pointing out how he's wrong. He makes another outrageous claim to further derail conversation, and make people start to lose it. Then he starts calling people stupid because they didn't understand his misused words and vague arguments, and brings out the dreaded hammering smiley. He's a troll, guys. Can you honestly believe that he saw Hills Have Eyes and didn't know it was about nuclear-fallout mutants? That is just ridiculous! That when it's pointed out that V and Sin City are in very different genres, and have very little in common, he still insists they are clones, because they are 'dark'? (not even dark in tone, literally, that they have a dark color pallette?) His WWE threads are, if possible, worse. Look at that 'Meltzer no sells emails' thread. It is mind-blowing. I've heard he's made point-blank outrageous claims in the Sports folder too. He clearly has nothing to add. He ruins threads. He is a troll, and he's not even funny. Of course, I still can't believe CronoT was a real person, but he was. However, CronoT was at least (unintentionally) funny.
