Nope. It's just you and 2-3 others who still hold a petty grudge. Unless you think "many" amounts to 4 members?

Yet you keep returning

If that isn't the embodiment of "pig shit" I don't know what is.

Shing, why get pissed over something like this? Bloody stupid to get stressed over something or someone on the internet. You don't even know the other person, won't have the slightest effect on your real life. And look at Brad, he stays calm although he gets more shit and insults than anyone else on this board.

I agree with Hung, I think Shing is being way OTT making a fuss.

The obtuse need their mistakes pointed out to them, otherwise they'll never learn.

Iron Man - 3/5

A lean, no-fat action blockbuster. In a climate where over-long and meandering zillion dollar drecks like Pirates of the Caribbean and Transformers are common place, Iron Man is much welcome breath of fresh air.

The action scenes were exciting and quite well done. The film's plot flowed naturally and was completely followable, just as one should expect from a decently made Hollywood blockbuster.

Robert Downey Jr. was perfect in the lead role of Tony Stark and dominated every scene that he was in. Jeff Bridge's is a fantastic actor, but his talents were wasted in this film. The villain, Iron Monger, was a weak, but that's to expected in a superhero origins film. The supporting cast was serviceable in their various roles.

I'm completely calm, you can be calm and still annoyed at the same time. Brad is the most annoying cunt on the internet, and as you say why bother being annoyed by him. Well, i've had enough.

Tom, look after the DVDMystére thread for me please.

Adios!

HungFist · Post by **HungFist** » 03 May 2008, 15:03

ah, that's exactly what I'm talking about. If you're leaving the forum because of one member then you are taking it pretty heavy. If there's nothing interesting for you on this forums then fine, of course, I wouldn't stay either. But I can't imagine ever leaving because there's someone I don't like.

I don't want you to leave. You're one of the few persons here how occasionally throws good puns at me. Without you this place will get more boring for me.

Bye-bye, Shing.
You'll soon return, I'm sure.

grim_tales · Post by **grim_tales** » 03 May 2008, 16:26

I dont want you to leve either Shing

Reconsider mate.

"Jiang Hu" - 0/5
Turd.

"Run Fatboy Run," "Michael Clayton" - 2/5
Poor.

"Amistad," "Wall Street," "Finding Forrester," "30 Days of Night," "Six Days Seven Nights" - 3/5
Average.

"'Breaker' Morant," "Picnic at Hanging Rock," "Trading Places" - 3.5/5
Decent.

"CJ7" - 4/5
Rather liked this, aimed at a younger audience than his previous films but still rather good. Not much to be said really, if you like Chow you'll like this.

"Brick" - 5/5
Highschool Noir - Black Satire if you like - with a emotionally heavy 'hard boiled' plot which will still lets you smile half of the time. I thought it was brilliant.

Blimey Shingster stay matey ! how many members has Brad now seen off :twisted: Even stripped of his mod powers he retains an uncanny ability to piss rational people off to the point of no return

Well i shall stay strong and vow not to yield to Brad's mysterious ability

Thank you. I try to. I do have outbursts sometimes but I "try" to rise above it.

Exactly though otherwise, leaving over ONE member is just stupid.

Shingster wrote:Adios!

Bye! Please close the door behind you

.

It's ironic that the members who keep proclaiming I'm dumb are the ones who keep leaving. That doesn't exactly show much intelligence and maturity to rise above it.

The simple fact is 4 members don't like me. That's there problem not mine. I'm not going to get worried when it's only FOUR members.

I've been nothing but nice to them recently so if they still wish to be petty children well they've only got themselves to blame. Taking the recent example I said nothing to belittle Shingster personally yet he thought it acceptable to belittle me anyway.

His loss, not mine. Don't forget to close that door.

saltysam wrote:how many members has Brad now seen off :twisted:

To the point of leaving? That would be two: LD and Shingster.

saltysam wrote:Even stripped of his mod powers he retains an uncanny ability to piss rational people off to the point of no return

Well. I did say my Mod powers weren't the issue but no one believed me.

I don't piss you off often do I? You annoy me at times too, as much as I annoy you I'd imagine

I'm sure he will. LD lasted about a week before lurking

Too self-consciously hip for my tastes... the arch dialogue and kiddie grownups made me yearn for someone like Bruce Willis to come along and give them all a pasting. This could have been fun, but it's merely pretentious.

bradavon · Post by **bradavon** » 03 May 2008, 18:05

Anyway back on topic, to something that actually matters:

* I thought Amistad was excellent. When Djimon Hounsou says "Let us be Free", nice and powerful.
* "Trading Places" is a good 80s Eddie Murphy/Dan Aykroyd film.

What do you mean here? I guess you mean:

"but that's to be expected in a superhero origins film."

Referring to the fact that your opinion is often inconsistent, sometimes even within the same sentence.

Yes, I meant "expected". The original post has been corrected.

It's a satire of self-concious films. Not sure what else could be done! You mention Bruce Willis, was Sin City not completely self-concious and cool for the sake of being cool?

Yes, but then I didn't like that either.

Cool is cool. Trying to be cool isn't.

I didn't much like Sin City either, very overrated.
