You blow up a building and/or kill a bunch of people, there’s a certain amount of power earned with that.

Yes, but the jamokes would say that they aren’t looting or destroying property. Both sides will use whatever they can to justify attacking “the other.”

You know what’s funny? You sound just like they do when they’re talking about Ferguson and Baltimore protesters.

I wasn’t arguing your point about them being terrorist. I was referring to your “kid gloves” comment, which, without any context, seems to be suggesting that we treat these idiots like we treat PoC (of which I am also one, btw). Instead of taking the kid gloves off for every incident, I simply suggest that maybe we…

I don’t understand why this is such a difficult concept for some to grasp. These people aren’t serious, and by acting like they are we endow them with power they don’t deserve, don’t actually have and didn’t earn.

Burneko already replied to this type of thinking. He stated—and I paraphrase far less eloquently—that extending unjustified use of force to others is not a proper reaction, either. How about we just stop using unjustifiable force period.

Creed was mostly alright. But I didn’t find Adonis to be an interesting character. It was just another, “Oh, look, a good guy with a temper who is eager to fight.” It’s one of those so-called “juvenile wish-fulfillment fantasies.” The cool thing about Rocky was that he was a gentle dude who just happened to be good at…

Well, I get no pleasure out of watching the specific incident this article is referring to. But I enjoy MMA because it’s speed chess where the only pieces are a person’s body. It takes intelligence, wits, speed, power, strength and of course courage and bravery to be a successful MMA fighter. It is a sport that often…

What the hell are you talking about? This is the website that published an article entitled, “Bernie Sanders can’t save black people” and which article then proceeded to spend several thousand words demanding that Bernie Sanders save black people.

Also, undersized superhero Frankie Edgar continues to beat the shit out of everybody despite being ignored and refused a fight with Mr. McGregor, because, you know, Edgar would take down Edgar repeatedly and probably win.

This movie took shit from critics for including too much of what is described as “fan service.” This is a concern that can only be had or expressed by critics. What devoted fan is ever gonna complain that a movie has too much shit in it for the specific enjoyment of devoted fans? Yes, this movie has Khan, and it…

This series was probably my favorite weekly reading on the interwebz. Thanks for that.

I didn’t say that the movie wasn’t true to life, to some extent. I said that it was boring.

Oh, yeah, agreed. But you know what they say: desperation is the mother of invention. Or something....

I was being somewhat facitious with my comment. But, regardless of the motivations, I can’t remember ever watching a movie with such a high percentage of the running time being montage. In theory, one could argue that it’s the most concise movie ever made. No wasted motions. It’s not a “great” movie, by any means,…

Really? Somebody said Only Built for Cuban Linx 2 was disappointing? That is arguably the best hip hop album for 2-3 years on either side of its drop date.

The really cool thing about Rocky IV is that it’s basically an experimental film. The movie is like 3/4s montage. And, yet, it’s still comprehensible and coherent and there are things resembling such storytelling staples as “plot,” “character,” and “emotions.” It’s incredible, really.

I don’t care what anybody says. I don’t care how bad Rocky V was. I don’t even care how awesome the final act of Rocky II was. Rocky II is easily the worst of the series. This is my favorite film series by a lightyear and I still can’t care enough to stay wake until Adrian wakes from the coma and Mick finally gets…

You understate the outright awesomeness of what we’re witnessing. Not only are they playing great, they’re undefeated at 9-1. INCREDIBLE.

This is true.
