126 - lol.

170 - No idea who that is, but I used to do that to magazines in doctor's waiting rooms. Mostly to the adverts.

Also, I have a bone to pick with the fine people of this community, because today I wasted my precious little money seeing TDK because of all the raving and drooling over the Joker. And yeah, Heath was good, the Joker is cool, but why the fuck didn't any of you warn me that the actual movie is a failboat full of fucking crap? Cardboard characters, shittastic plot, lacking tension, excitement, or recognizable human emotion. Not blaming the cast, some fine actors in there, but I kept waiting for it to get good, and it never did.

My theory is that they've been lacing the soft drinks at cinemas with E or crack, and the rest of you have been drinking it, because WHY SO FUCKING SERIOUSLY OVERRATED, YOU GUYS???

I'd make this a secret, but it's not secret.

[vashti.livejournal.com]

Oh, is it crap? I was thinking about seeing it soon.

[(Anonymous)]

Give it a chance - you won't know till you try it. It might not be your thing but then it well might be. It is a well-made movie, you're not going to see something with Rob Schneider in it or anything.

[cdaae.livejournal.com]

Well, you might like it. I disagree that it was particularly well made, I found it disappointing on pretty much all fronts, but obviously a lot of people thought it was so fantastic that they're personally wounded by anyone who disagrees.

[alleykitten.livejournal.com]

I love Batman.

[(Anonymous)]

You have an opinion that's different from the majority? Wow, how edgy of you.

[cdaae.livejournal.com]

Gosh, yes, it's so very edgy not to be afraid to disagree with people!

[(Anonymous)]

No, it's edgy to state your dissension with antagonistically phrased statements such as 'failboat full of fucking crap', 'shittastic plot' and implying that everyone who enjoyed it was unknowingly drugged.

You disagree? Fine. You didn't like it? I'm cool with that, whatever rocks your boat. But that doesn't mean you've gotta piss in the pool just cause you don't like swimming.

[cdaae.livejournal.com]

Oh, so I'm not allowed to express my opinion when I think something is shit, because it might in some way upset some anonymous person on the internet. Expressing my dissenting opinion is pissing in the pool.

Cry moar.

[(Anonymous)]

Anon is afraid of the acidic quality of your piss.

[cdaae.livejournal.com]

Yes. Disagreeing with people on the internet is very scary!

[alleykitten.livejournal.com]

What's wrong with pissing in the pool? Isn't that what chlorine is for?

[cdaae.livejournal.com]

Remind me not to go swimming with you!

[(Anonymous)]

HYPERBOLE KILLS!

[(Anonymous)]

*sighs*

My problem is with your phrasing. Not your opinion. To make it simple for you: you sound like a troll. You sound like you want to rub a load of people up the wrong way, get them chomping at the bit and massing together with cries of 'you're wrong!' either for a sick sense of amusement as you watch them expend their energies in a useless attempt to change your mind/prove you wrong, or you're wielding some sort of badly aimed preemptive strike because you know you opinion isn't the same as the majority, and that makes you so very special and put-upon.

I'll repeat: You don't like the film? That's cool, I've got no problem with that. You feel like expressing this sentiment in an open forum? Also cool, freedom of speech and all that. You feel like harshly insulting both the film and the people who did enjoy it without any balanced arguments? Now you've lost me. And now you're edgy.

[(Anonymous)]

edgy

You keep using that word... I do not think it means what you think it means.

[cdaae.livejournal.com]

or you're wielding some sort of badly aimed preemptive strike because you know you opinion isn't the same as the majority, and that makes you so very special and put-upon.

Either you are understandably cynical from many years on the internet, or you're projecting. I don't think I'm special or put-upon when I think something popular is crap; I just don't feel the need not to say what I think because other people might be butthurt over it. "Harshly insulting" a film does not make someone a troll. As for "harshly insulting" the people who enjoyed it, no. If I'd said "I think the people who loved this movie must be cretins with no inkling of what makes a good movie, and are probably the same kind of people who think McDonald's food is equal to five star cuisine", that would be harshly insulting them (and no, I don't think that).

If my intention had been to post a thoughtful review or "balanced argument" I would have pointed to various aspects of the movie which I thought were crap. My intention wasn't to post a thoughtful review, it was just a brief rant in reaction to the huge numbers of secrets over the past week from people loving the movie, employing a similar degree of hyperbole.

If I'd actually wanted to be obnoxious and cause trouble, I would have gone through and replied to the comments by all the people who loved the movie telling them what I thought.

[(Anonymous)]

You know what is even MORE edgy?

Being anonymous!!

[(Anonymous)]

I don't actually have a livejournal account. So, no gold star for you.

[(Anonymous)]

Are you sure that watching the same movie as me? Meh, it was the best superhero movie for me and I was excited the whole time and while I admit Bale's performance was completely overshadowed by Ledger and Eckhart, but if you didn't admit that Eckhart gave a good performance, I don't know what to tell you.

Also, maybe it didn't appeal to you, doesn't mean it's a shitty movie. You just happened to be the minority who don't like it.

[(Anonymous)]

and therefore a shitty movie to them.

wow, you people get all kinds of buttasssore when someone doesn't like what you like and actually calls it out that they think it sucks fucking ass.

[cdaae.livejournal.com]

I didn't have a problem with any of the performances, I just felt none of the actors had nearly enough to work with.

In my opinion it was a shit movie, based on criteria such as script, editing, direction, and general coherence. If you liked it, good for you. It's sad that people should feel they have to be anonymous just to disagree with someone about a movie.

[(Anonymous)]

I don't have any problem with performance, baby ;) You, me, a bag of weed and a weekend on the beach. How about it? ;)

[cdaae.livejournal.com]

Do you promise not to piss on me??

[(Anonymous)]

hey... I don't care WHO you are! you have to pay extra for the kinky shit. just like everyone else.
