Movies

I'm not intimidated by them either; I just hated the obviously misogynistic vibe eminating from the movie's core.

Posted by: goodvibe61 on Mar 28, 08:42 in response to HarryWarden's post No, but unlike them, I liked the movie and am not...

You "talk" about girl power, and empowerment, and all that. Then you turn around and spend a whole movie depiciting young women as sex objects.

The whole thing conceit, not well thought out at all by Snyder, is off putting and sophomoric.

Just my two cents.

I just saw Sucker Punch and I think we are a nation of sheep. its not bad at all. {nm} Moviesnob Mar 27, 21:22

Or you could just simply disagree with the majority opinion. It happens. {nm} tribefan695 Mar 27, 21:27

it does happen, but i think its so similar to 300, but with better art direction {nm} Moviesnob Mar 27, 21:28

300 sort of sucked too. so there's that. {nm} goodvibe61 Mar 28, 08:32

I too liked it. Critics are idiots and the public by and large doesn't truly want originality or anything approaching it. {nm} HarryWarden Mar 27, 22:14

Critics are also sexist though if asked they surely would deny it. {nm} HarryWarden Mar 27, 22:16

and you ? Are you sexist ? {nm} JMT Mar 27, 22:31

No, but unlike them, I liked the movie and am not threatened by action heroines. {nm} HarryWarden Mar 27, 22:34

yep. you were sure to deny it ;-) I'm seeing Suckerpunch tonight. {nm} JMT Mar 27, 22:40

So because I accuse others of it, that makes me it. You're an idiot, just like them. {nm} HarryWarden Mar 27, 22:41

You don't even know the correct title of the movie. {nm} HarryWarden Mar 27, 22:44

Hmmm... ok.... Starwars, Star Wars... {nm} JMT Mar 27, 23:09

Tell that to an editor or your English professor. See if it flies then. {nm} HarryWarden Mar 27, 23:16

I think his English is quite good - it's not his native language. (There are quite a few players/forum users outside of North America.. ) {nm} Facto Mar 28, 00:29

i concur.. my standard of English is bad compared to some of the folks here ;-) {nm} karspov Mar 28, 00:37

refering to Facto's thread.. {nm} karspov Mar 28, 00:38

There's surely a rule against baiting/attempting to start an argument for no reason here. If so, you broke it. {nm} HarryWarden Mar 27, 23:18

Will you two fellas take it easy? Sheesh! {nm} Apokalips Mar 27, 23:35

Have they been at odds before.. ? I must not've been paying attention.. JMT is very difficult to get angry at. I'm not sure what's the deal? {nm} Facto Mar 28, 00:32

I think JMT did a pretty good joke and HW just took it a little bit too serious {nm} krapnek Mar 28, 03:18

yes, I'm guilty of trying to make a joke. It wasn't meant as a trap. No harm done I'm sure {nm} JMT Mar 28, 08:27

If there was, I would have been banned YEARS ago!! secretstalker Mar 28, 08:45

Isn {nm} HarryWarden Mar 27, 23:17

They probably just watch movies on a higher level than "hot chicks = good movie", unlike some around here. {nm} BionicMoron Mar 28, 05:30

Are they hot in the first place to begin with ? {nm} karspov Mar 28, 05:47

I agree.. it had problems, but it wasn't nearly as bad as people are saying. secretstalker Mar 27, 23:35

I caught the first 30 minutes this afternoon and I must say goodvibe61 Mar 28, 00:31

That, as I'm sure most people guessed, is culled from the ending they cut out notfabio Mar 28, 03:33

I agree as well. Not a great film, but not horrible, either. {nm} Buckramega Mar 28, 01:58

The only thing horrible was Jamie Chung mypalfish Mar 28, 07:44

I thought it was going to suck based on trapped in an insane asylum angle, but I liked it. {nm} Panachevitz Mar 28, 08:20
