Well yeah, because orcs aren't human - they're swarthy cannibals from the East who speak a horrid gibberish language.

Mast?

Man, I have a copy of that movie on the shelf at home, and I'm gradually working myself up to it. Attack of the Clones was surprisingly watchable, and now the morbid curiosity about Ep 1 just won't go away.

You know, this argument has been going for weeks, and you're the first person to bring up a good old fashioned pelting. I like that idea much better than punches - it's humiliating and comical and it ruins clothing.

Sounds like Anakin had the higher ground on that one.

And plenty of people who get die deserve to live - since we can't bring them back we shouldn't be keen on adding to the pile. (Gandalf said it best.)

It's a situation where technology and art are working at cross purposes - the more "realistically" a household object is rendered, the more our brains reject the idea that it has a little face. There's an interesting anecdote about Pixar's early development, and how it was a breakthrough when they started using more

Counterpoint: Ewan McGregor doing bad accents is one of the finer things in life.

The CGI characters in this movie are supposed to fit into a "live action" world, so their more expressive qualities are replaced by realistic textures and a simulation of weight, neither of which are mandatory or even desirable for cartoon characters (CGI or hand-drawn).

"Here's this actor as this character - and here's what this character is up to."

To be fair, Disney's Peter Pan is a piece of shit. The songs are shit, the character designs are shit, the writing is shit, the animation is a little above shit. It's shit, and it was only inflicted on our generation because it was part of our Boomer parents' childhoods, and it wasn't quite racist enough to be

Super Bowl Li is one of China's most famous pop stars, and her wedding to an industrialist three times her age cost 875,000 USD.

There was a nice op-ed in the Chicago Tribune pointing out how most of the people protesting the immigration ban are not directly impacted by it, and how Preibus or Spicer or some idiot was trying to spin that as "overreacting," which is hopefully a sign of how clueless the administration is about its own unpopularity.

"Stop that! Stop pretending to be frightened when you are not frightened!"

They aren't on your side, they just want to wring as much as they can out of the world before they destroy it, and they're annoyed that Trump is in such a goddamn hurry.

I wonder if the marketing team at Budweiser is going to get fired for its pro-immigrant sentiments.

Granted, I hadn't heard of Yuengling before last summer, but it's not that bad. Granted, it's not good.

That's why it's fiction and not function, all right?

From what I've seen on the internet, some guys like to have their balls stepped on. That makes way more sense to me than what you're saying right now. I guess you never sat through "celebrity impressions zip-zap-zop" in your friend's basement?

And they're usually so calm and even-tempered.
