  • MORONS! I'VE GOT MORONS ON MY PAYROLL!
    Whenever I read true art tropes all I see is 'I don't like something critically acclaimed and this is my way of getting back at people who study the medium making me feel stupid.'

  • B-but... a month is a long time...
  • I had fun watching the first Transformers movie. There. That is my defense.

    I also had fun reading The Third Policeman.

    Welcome back, Bob. Hopefully this doesn't look too bad. >_>

    ^^ She's been giving us a lot of crap lately, let's just leave it at that.

    ^^^^^...Wait, how long was I gone?

    Also, thanks! ^_^

    ^^^^Ditto.

    ^^^I'm gonna miss her. :<

    ^Thanks! :3

    Also, sorry, but it does. Not on you or anything, but, in general. I'm just sick of all of this happening every other week.

    It's only 2/3 a month. I think you were gone a couple weeks or so.

    ^^^^More fun than you would have in another action movie with a better story and characters?

    ^^^ If it makes you any better, I'm really sick of it, too. I don't take joy in reducing our already-small userbase.

    ^^^ Eh, the first Transformers was fairly decent. I can't stand the second, though, which is why I'm going to see Winnie the Pooh instead. 
  • ^^^^ Not more fun, but a different kind of fun.
  • MORONS! I'VE GOT MORONS ON MY PAYROLL!
    How? What about the Transformers action scenes were so unique or great? What about it was so dazzling, exactly?

    And 'giant robots' is not an answer. You can get that plenty of places.
  • If it helps, we hadn't had something like that happen for some time.
  • You can get giant, state of the art CG transforming robots elsewhere? In a movie that I could watch in a theater with not very nerdy friends? I'd be much obliged if you pointed where.

    Till shade is gone, till water is gone, into the Shadow with teeth bared, screaming defiance with the last breath, to spit in Sightblinder’s eye on the last Day.
    I enjoyed watching them. That's enough for me.
  • So, who's to say you can't watch both Transformers and these other, apparently better giant robot movies?
  • I liked the first Transformers' movie, too (haven't watched the others).

    I could do without any of the robotless parts, tho.
  • MORONS! I'VE GOT MORONS ON MY PAYROLL!
    A) If technical aspects are all you need to make a movie good, you might want to get some oil for your joints because you officially look at art like a robot.

    B)'it's fun with my friends' isn't a good indicator of if the movie is good. It's a good indicator of your friends. Who you watch it with says nothing about the film.
  • ... since when are we arguing as to whether the movie is good?
  • MORONS! I'VE GOT MORONS ON MY PAYROLL!
    I'm arguing that your fun could have been had with the same friends watching Batman & Robin, or Hudson Hawk.
  • "^ Find the first locked thread on the page.

    Oh, and Vivi's banned until August."

    I didn't intend for that to happen.
  • Till shade is gone, till water is gone, into the Shadow with teeth bared, screaming defiance with the last breath, to spit in Sightblinder’s eye on the last Day.
    No one said you did.
  • I still feel like shit.

    The onus is on me.

    Solution: Forget the movie and just order some pizza and play games all night with your friends. Problem solved! :D

    Alternate solution: Convince everyone to get totally stoned. Then it won't matter what movie you see! :D

    ^All you can do is wait for it to be up and apologize, I suppose.

    ^^^Not your fault. He caused a bunch of drama the other day, then ignored three mod warnings in quick succession today.
  • Vivi's a she.

    ...I think. >_>
  • OOOooooOoOoOOoo, I'm a ghoOooOooOOOost!
    Vivi is Saturn.
  • ....So he isn't a mother?

    -dramatic gasp, followed by an equally dramatic "DUN DUN DUN DUNNNN"-

    ^I choose to believe that he is.
