She's only in it for a few minutes and for me was partly there to underline how different her and Renton's worlds are and maybe how sometimes over the years you blow that one fling up in your mind into something it never was.

C'mon, who doesn't like oranges ?! And order.

Sometimes his style gets in the film's way but his stuff is always at least worth a watch IMO. Bit like Nolan, i'd rather watch one of his failures than lots of other directors' successes.

Yeah, this film was basically review proof for me (although the UK reviews were generally more positive anyway). It doesn't land like 'Trainspotting' did but then anyone expecting that is kidding themselves IMO, in a sense that loss of/search for youthful potency is what the film's about.

I completely got that from it personally. The scene just after the Orange "Lodge" scene is basically that "glory days" subtext made text, the film is deeply nostalgic but it's also _about_ nostalgia.

Very cute video, love how calm the guy was.

No need to apologise, you've pretty much nailed it. The only unrealistic part is that you've got two complete sentences of dialogue but only mention tea once - we'd never go that long without it coming up in conversation. So to speak*.

Definitely more of a goofus, even on my good days !

Not just a good line well delivered but totally speaks to the character with its combination of the Victorian era imperial British attitudes William was born and raised with alongside the punkish disregard for social niceties he assumed later on as Spike.

Xander always felt the most real to me for the reasons you mention. When the other characters wobbled a bit it was high stakes or even world changing but for the most part Xander wobbled the same way the rest of us do - one day he's a dick to someone when he shouldn't have been, the next he's being kind when he…

They're way more likely to do that than ask themselves if they're the baddies.

"And Amanda Waller's respect for Batman doesn't come from his ability to fight or know things or defeat villains, but in his moral capacity for actual good in refusing to kill someone."

And then every once in a while, they're not:

Have you met people ?

It's the "kicking K" sound combined with the hard 't' I think, got some bite. That's why I use it fairly sparingly - it's good to have something that still feels like a proper swear word.

'Berk' is also much milder and suitable for pretty much any company. As you say above, though we do use "c*nt" a lot more than in the US, it's still not something you'd just drop into casual conversation unless you're _very_ sure it's not going to cause offence (or really don't care).

Well now you're just repeating yourself. Enjoy the rest of your day, random person from the internet.

Well, sadly you seem to be what's becoming typical for the right wing in that you deny facts as well as the basic elements of a well established body of knowledge like statistics while simplistically misapplying evidence you clearly don't fully understand in order to perpetuate your view of the world.

My point is that despite what you seem to think the verified statistics you quote _actually_ demonstrate what is better seen as a "We don't know" conclusion rather than a "These are confirmed false" conclusion - absence of evidence isn't evidence of absence right ? All the "No reasonable cause" harrassment claims may…
