I do believe we have different looks on what an idol is.
To me, an idol is a person that I currently find amusing or funny.
I do not necessarily want to turn into that person.

Re: Movies
According to Assaultman67, things like "immortal" and "idol" can only be interpreted as "god", so you're caught there.

Uhg, why does everything have to become a flame war?
I watched FMA: Conquerer of Shambala. It was pretty good. The plot line wasn't great, but it was ok. I really liked the animation. But that's to be expected, since it's a full length movie of a very popular series.

"To me, a trilogy is a series in which a farm boy or an exiled warrior becomes [a king, a wizard, the hero of the land, the chosen one] under the guidance of [an old king, an old wizard, a retired hero, the one seeking the chosen one], and gets the girl."Freshbite wrote:I do believe we have different looks on what an idol is.

I once thought that's what a trilogy is. I was 12 or so when I learned that's not what it REALLY means. I think it's time for you to accept that your definition of "an idol" is in the wrong and learn the real meaning, even though it's less funny.

Re: Movies
Yeah, I heard that from a lot of people, still wanna see it though.
Re: Movies
Well, it's definitely not a waste of time, I'll give it that.
It's just that it was wise to watch it with a girlfriend rather than to watch it alone.
EDIT: Just watched "The Lovely Bones", and I've got to say; I hardly find any movies to be touching, but man, this one was damn close. Not sad as in bursting-into-tears, but rather a damn-son,this-is-some-heavy-shit kind of sad.

Re: Movies
Lol not really. Saoirse Ronan was okay but a bit too hammy. Mark Wahlberg was embarrassingly bad, he should just stick to films where he's either (a) Killing People or (b) Fucking People. Also, reasons why anyone would cast Rachel Weisz in anything anymore are completely beyond me (aside from her obvious non-talent-related assets). Stanley Tucci was the only redeeming factor of The Lovely Bones. He was one badass villain. In fact, I wish the rest of them died and he survived.
You could say it's crude to suggest that the film should feature a sex scene, but when you have two people in Mark Wahlberg and Rachel Weisz who are mainly just eye candy (although Wahlberg has his moments of brilliance, Boogie Nights was just amazing), having them be married but NOT having them...umm...consummating things, well...I don't know where I'm going with this, but if Mark Wahlberg and Rachel Weisz are together in a movie they should fuck, end of. At least off camera if not on camera.

Re: Movies
Looking back, they actually do have a sex-scene.
Surprisingly, it's even within the first 3 minutes of the film (right before the "12 Years Later"). Not any nudity, but it's clear that as soon as the camera slips away, they're doing it.

No, I'm pretty sure your views were "can only be". That was about it. You didn't recognise the other side to the coin. You fail this time too.Assaultman67 wrote:You mean "Immortal". and "Can be" not "can only be".Renegade_Turner wrote:According to Assaultman67, things like "mortal" and "idol" can only be interpreted as "god", so you're caught there.

Also, I'm pretty sure you're the one misquoting me for YOUR benefit. I definitely said "immortal". Not sure where you're coming from there, squire.
