Well, are they?

I think we're talking at cross purposes here. My argument was in response to Ergoat's original comment lamenting the fact that no one rushed the stage during the show and "[beat] that Nazi scumfuck unconscious." Everything I've said has been in rebuttal to that initial sentiment, which I find deeply stupid and…

No, it was Larry. Watched the clip twice.

That's right, I had heard that much of the film's ambiguity was absent in the book's ending. I definitely prefer it to be left open to interpretation. (Roger Ebert felt the opposite, apparently - he thought the film's power was diminished by its lack of answers.)

I know you're on kind of a roll here with your righteous fury, so it's probably pointless to continue the argument, but just to be clear here, you're A) directly opposing the 1st Amendment, and B) advocating assault.

Again, I have no problem with the protesters. It's the assault that I take issue with. I don't think punching one random asshole in the face is the triumphant signal to the oppressed that Ergoat and others seem to think it is. I'm honestly kind of shocked at how much support he's getting on this one.

Adding to clarify, taking the high ground does not equal rolling over and letting the other side do whatever they want in the name of politeness. We can and should fight back. But fighting back with literal assault is, no other word for it, dumb. Sure, you get your adrenaline pumping, I'm sure it feels great in the…

I liked it.

…Is punching one random Nazi asshole really "winning," though?

The scene where they visit Sarah's home is actually the main one I had in mind. The stuff with Ed Harris was well-done, but I agree that the focus was right to stay on Sarah and Fielding.

True, but there's something to be said for taking the high ground. The media loves its images of violent protests and isn't afraid to paint with a broad brush, which plays exactly into the right's hands. If you're not smart about how you fight the opposition, you risk delegitimizing the entire movement.

WikiLeaks is also working now to undermine other elections, most notably in France, where they're trying to get far-right president Marine Le Pen reelected. They've essentially become a tool of Putin at this point.

Yeah, all that does is further the alt-right's persecution complex and give them ammo to point at the "violent liberals." I have a very conservative friend on Facebook who has bought the "fake news" rhetoric hook line and sinker, and lately he's been posting statuses about "how far the left is going to push us toward…

Milo: "The worst people on the very far left and the very far right all hate me."

Waking the Dead would be very close to my top pick. That ending hit me like a gut punch, and the whole thing is achingly romantic from beginning to end. It's such a beautiful movie. If you don't own it, the DVD is well worth picking up. The deleted scenes are just as romantic (to the point where I'm slightly…

Love Carol. That ending is definitely swoon-worthy.

They're up there with the best comic movie couples, that's for sure. I'd still put Superman and Lois Lane ahead of them, though, particularly in Superman II, which is a thoroughly charming romance film.

Aw, Roxanne, now there is a great movie romance. Such a thoroughly strange and lovely movie.

I'd say not only is it romantic but is also one of the best romance films for grownups to come out in recent years. The central pairing is bizarre on paper, but Louis-Dreyfus and Gandolfini work beautifully together in the film.

I'd put Holiday as the more romantic of the two films by a longshot, although I love them both.
