    Two men enter, one man leaves.

    Bryan Singer does not prefer the company of women.

    It sounds like those kittens are Prisoners of Love.

    What is a man, if his chief good and market of his time be but to sleep and feed?
    A beast, no more.

    Surely, He that made us with such large discourse, looking before and after,
    gave us not that capability and god-like reason, to fust in us unused?

    Strange, the only truly winning move is not to play.

    A man comes into the ER with a TV remote lodged up his rectum, and you say to yourself "this man cannot possibly lose any more dignity"

    ""PATIENT STATES HE WAS EXPERIENCING AN ITCHY RECTUM AND INSERTED A REMOTE CONTROL TO SCRATCH""

    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
