However, you thought that Adam West played the mayor on American Dad (wrong) instead of on Family Guy (correct).
Now, that's really stupid.

Re: Dunkirk
Well this is a disaster of a topic. I don't think I was prepared for the hostility from the right, looking for a way out. If only there was a movie that in some way reflected that.

Somehow, I don't entirely trust your taste in movies that you haven't seen. I'm not sure what it is exactly though. You do seem a tad over-reactionary, but that can't be it entirely. I mean, this Nolan film you haven't watched seems to have irked you, and I can't quite put my finger on why I don't respect your take on it.Thorthoth wrote:I told you nobody cared about your stupid movie.Symmetry wrote:Well this is a disaster of a topic.

Perhaps it's me reading in to your posts too much, but I think there's just something there about the way you're judging a truly amazing piece of cinema (that you've not seen) that seems a bit off.

Re: Dunkirk
Logically, if it's 'you' then you would be the best one to explain... but your neuroses and poor communcation skills seem to always throw a spanner in the works.Symmetry wrote:Indeed, I kind of thought as much, would you be willing to explain why?Thorthoth wrote:Yea, probably just you.Symmetry wrote:Somehow, I don't entirely trust your taste in movies that you haven't seen.

I don't know what right-left has to do with it.Symmetry wrote:Well this is a disaster of a topic. I don't think I was prepared for the hostility from the right, looking for a way out. If only there was a movie that in some way reflected that.
I was listening to talk radio on Monday (even in Canada talk radio is very right-wing) and a majority of the callers loved the movie.

Re: Dunkirk
Well, outside of the context of the French Revolution, left and right have always been a rather crude and clumsy way to categorize things. Still, a crude and clumsy way is better than nothing.mrswdk wrote:Also there is no such thing as right vs left any more.Dukasaur wrote:I don't know what right-left has to do with it.Symmetry wrote:Well this is a disaster of a topic.

Maybe.

First movie I've seen in a long time that really blew me away. Zimmer's soundtrack is amazing.
