Yes. Also, that show sucks.

When we say someone 'is' something, especially when that 'something'
assumes a deep understanding of who they are, we are making an
assumption.

I'm telling you my thought process and where it led me to in case it
helps, because I see a resemblance; none of it has to do with making some sort of judgment about how you get there. I'm not ranking it. But if I see things I know aren't correct (after having said them about myself before), and if it looks quite a…

That's what makes it such a virus in my experience, at least with my generation: you wonder about intent because you're seeing what people do and what assumptions they have, but they don't wonder about intent because they've been taught to be against racism while being given an inaccurate picture of what that means.…

It probably takes different approaches depending on the person.
Personally, if someone calls me something I don't want to be, and I
realize they're right, I feel shame, which can lead to feeling like I
can't change that behavior. Buy maybe some people need a bucket of cold
water thrown at them to shock them out of…

If you say, 'presuming all black people voted for Obama because he's
black, makes you a racist' what good does it do? That person is a
racist, all of their opinions are invalid.

"That man said something racist," and "Racists say things that are racist" therefore, "that man is a racist." But that's a fallacy based on the idea of presuming intent.

If we’re supposed to get a thrill out of watching a dude beat two other dudes to death…

I read the novella more than once before seeing this, and so the ending was no surprise…and it didn't bother me, not at all. I was even sort of appreciative that they took the risk of adapting it faithfully and going for the grim and perverse instead of copping out. I wish I could see why it plays so badly when it…

Yep. Might as well have said "MORE TO COME" on the screen. I for one welcome the child measles vampire overlords.

My memory of it is not reliable at this point, but I recall finding it hard to detect much satire. I was expecting it to be an indictment of 'Loose Change'-type "documentaries" (which I was so ready to see), but it actually seemed to be endorsing them, since in the movie those students ARE spreading the truth about…

I'll give it another try one of these days probably, but I found it to be an ass-flavored disappointment at the time.

Accusing someone of ripping off 'Diary of the Dead' is a low blow, sir. LOW.

Wow. I was wondering how this case was going and couldn't find any info as recently as last week. I love that the "Happy Birthday" copyright lawsuit is full of shocking bombshells like this, LOL.

It is, but personally I wouldn't trade it for something faster. I'm way too used to how 24 looks and am one of those people who will think it looks "fake" even at 30. Some judder is worth that "dreamy" look in my opinion, although—even though I loved it, visual direction included—sometimes a movie like this will…

LOL, just noticed your comment is four months old, sorry. Well, if the mystery still lingered hope I cleared it up.

Unless there was something wrong at your theater (who knows), that's just the way it looks when that's done at 24 frames per second. Usually movies don't draw attention to that too much, or find the right speed to avoid too much of the effect (known as "judder"). Like, in the scene at the school, it goes away when the…

It's the quality of the production.
