As if beady-eyes locked in a death glare weren't enough as part of Zimmerman's attempt to present himself as a peaceful mild-mannered man, he now sports a militaristic buzz-cut nearly shaved head, and Una-bomber esque beard?

He's a timid coward trying to embrace a mentality of "look how hyper-masculine I am!" —…

I did love these characters so much I wanted to see that world again; I'm just worried they won't get it right.

What comes after is the freedom of complete Anarchy. *EVERY* government inherently turns into Fascism, given enough time. So that's what the battle between V and the Norsefire party basically is: utter neo-Nazi Fascism vs complete Anarchy.

The Land of Do As You Please.

Thanks for the memories.

The thing you have to understand, is to step back from the absurdity of Castro's statements - he is not a poorly written "crazy person" from a comic book. Rather, he is following the *textbook* pattern of clinical Psychopathy. He maxes out Hare's Psychopathy checklist: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hare_Psyc……

These stories ain't no The Colour Out of Space, that's for sure.

The little children at least have the excuse that they don't know any better; how stranger-adults think they can do this without permission is absurd.

It always strikes me as absurd that people do this: you wouldn't touch a non-pregnant woman's baby...NOR would you reach into a carriage and start touching someone else's baby (like tickling their toes or something).....so how did touching a pregnant woman's belly become acceptable?

This can't be real, it reads like some sort of Dadaist parody of modern hookup frat boy culture.

Kubrick's film does feel a lot like we're watching ants inside of an ant farm, an outside observer noticing these things going wrong.
While it has interesting cinematography, the film's characters are only a pale shadow of the book ones, when it's really seeing the mundane turn evil, or the Adult Horror of something…

This all seems rather cynical.

World War I doesn't have a lot of games because the enemies were really their own generals: General Hague and the British military command were idiots whose answer was to throw men at the problem rather than admit they'd simply run out of ideas. *HALF* of the French army mutinied, specifically because they wanted…

Maybe this will be like the Gundam universe, with megacorps like Anaheim Eletronics spearheading space development.

Beethoven's alcoholic father beat him his entire childhood to make him practice constantly because he wanted to be famous as the father of the "next Mozart", because Mozart was famous for being a child prodigy.

Ariel Castro's own family said they felt that the death penalty would just be a means of escape for him; death would be too good for him, basically, and I would gladly pay tax dollars to make sure he suffers in jail for the full length of the rest of his natural life. He deserves to rot.

Someone else replied to my post yesterday and thus the thread came up in my feed today.

I dress up in a V costume and run panels at comic book conventions in it, mostly anime and comic book stuff. Sort of my meta-commentary on how for all intents and purposes our online screenames and avatars have *become* our social masks. More simply, I started using a V screename when the movie came out (though I…

I don't personally blame Powell, as even Powell got duped into doing that performance; at least Powell subsequently and vocally complained to the press, in later years, that he was lied to and felt utterly used. I mean think about it; what's more effective than a liar trying to convince a crowd that lies are the…
