And Nickelback, for that matter.

no, nickelback is better than ex-girlfriends. i can turn nickelback off.

But you can't stop them from making records.

Don't have to listen to them though XD

Well, if that's your case, you don't have to listen to ex-girlfriends either. :lol:

Nickelback don't send me messages on the ol' facebook or texts. Though if they did, that'd be pretty rad. As long as I didn't have to listen to them ;D

oh, and the star trek film is kinda good :)

little bit cheesy, but totally entertaining

I heard that Trekkies hated the new Star Trek movie...


...because it DIDN'T suck. :lol:

Well it basically effs off all the backstory for the original Star Trek stuff by ignoring continuity and starting a new timeline. So die-hard fans hate it :p

And that's so true... I watched Star Trek: Nemesis last night, and it was so much fail in so many ways :/

I saw Wolverine... entertaining, but not what I'd call "good", barely enough to keep the franchise afloat. 99% of credit goes to Huge Jackman. Although the guy who played Victor Creed I thought did a great job considering what he had to work with.

Yet to see new Star Trek, I heard they wanted 0 association with the Shat man though, wonder why :rolleyes:

I still liked Picard > Kirk

Any comments?

Sleep now, Diazepam is taking effect. Or is it affect, I should know dammit, I study this **** for a living. You know what makes me laugh? Correcting people on the proper use of whom and who when they're almost effectively interchangeable and even if they weren't no one gives a ****. And then throwing words like Iambic Quadrameter, Dipthong, Enthymeme and Syllogism around. Hah!

[QUOTE=fatbandit;17233553]ex-girlfriends can go and die, seriously.[/QUOTE]

and this.

yeah picard is way way better thsn kirk even though both suck and i'm in no way excited to see the new star trek

shitty michael bay explosions and boring space effects with lacking plot and sexy cast...

sounds like a winning formula... :rolleyes:

lmao everyone is a professional film critic i forgot about that

do you have to be condescending about every thing dude? get over yourself

movie looks like another dime a dozen pg13 action movie

i apologize you are obviously a seasoned and experienced critic who has spent many years working in the business and have a keen sense and understanding of the process and art of film making

and im the condescending one

So because I am not "a seasoned and experienced critic who has spent many years working in the business and have a keen sense and understanding of the process and art of film making" I can't say "movie looks like another dime a dozen pg13 action movie"?

I MUST be an expert in order to have any sort of opinion this movie?

Sade youre mad retarded shut up once in a while

what is also funny is that most directors who "people" like you respect, jcs, cite "dime a dozen action movies" as the most difficult to direct and the most fun to watch =/

Professional film critics are only as credible as anyone who watches movies on the regular.

Professional critic of anything is one of the biggest BS jobs out there.

yah i agree

point: elaborating on film as if you [I]are[/I] some kind of professional critic is horrifying to me

like funkyhoney's wonderful thesis on the dynamics of the entertainment industry

when in reality they're just talking out their *** and making stuff up





one thing critics have that people like jcs dont is experience and knowledge of the business (some of them) and there are some critics that are very respected, thoughtful and resonant in the industry












you can say you dont like it sure

but lol@trying to pretend like you understand the process

I don't give a **** whether it was hard to direct, and I don't give a **** whether it can be easily forcefed into the american public's ****-eating mouth because most people like bland soulless movies with lots of cool sparkly **** and big explosions and 1 scene with tits and an underlying romance between the main character and the hottest chick in the movie and the 3rd most important character dies at some point blah blah blah blah

That ****'s stupid and overdone.

Movie's gonna be another Tranformers

I NEVER SAID I HAVE EXPERIENCE AND KNOWLEDGE OF THAT ****. I never acted like I know everything (or anything) about making movies. I made one comment about how the movie's gonna suck and you start putting words in my mouth about who I am. You don't know me. We've never had a conversation about movies. You don't know whether I'm a film student or whether I'm Peter ****ing Jackson so shut the **** up already!


edit: Yes I judged the movie before I saw it. I'm not a "movie person". I don't sit and watch all of the classics and dissect them and analyze them. I don't think about how the directing process went. I don't care. Really. Movies are one of the least important highlights of american culture. I was just saying that the movie looks dumb.

lmao jcs just "yelled at me" in all caps what a pro

I wasn't yelling I was putting it in caps so you'd read it because evidently you're not reading and actually processing what I'm saying.

lmao "i wasnt mad dude i swear"

Anyone here use Ableton Live?

You're the one that went on the butthurt tirade about me not being an all-knowing praise-worthy film critic as soon as I posted one comment about how this bland movie's gonna suck.
