A Clockwork Orange was a "smash hit"?

I think we agree. I mean, I am mildly interest in seeing this, but mostly because I am interested in SW, as are many people that grew up with it, in a scholarly sense. It's interesting to see how the story evolved. I do not, however, read EU, so I don't know where that leaves me. I think what I am saying is, it's a…

Come on, romakan. You don't see how climate policy favors some business over others? If you really think there isn't money to be made by corporations lobbying the government for climate change legislation, you haven't been paying attention or you are being willfully ignorant. "Green" is big, nay, HUGE business now.

Are you working for the Koch brothers or big oil?

Can you recommend a good book about this subject? Preferably something that doesn't involve liberals and conservatives trying to out-do each other? I seriously need a recommendation, if you have one.

LOL

It's fun to bash Star Wars, isn't it!!

True, true.

Please, then, educate the masses, Oh Omniscient one.

I think those are all very valid opinions. And, hey, I wouldn't worry about not liking something that many other people do. Popularity has never been a measure of quality.

Yes.

I still, after all this time, have a hard time understanding people's hatred for that film. I am a big fan of the book, and I thought the film was actually pretty damned good.

The movie opens with Thor saving the nine realms (including earth).

Your comments were very hurtful.

Look at it this way, if you ever find yourself in a depressing dystopia where you're the only person left alive on a barren, frozen, climate change-afflicted Earth, you'll have no trouble amusing yourself.
