Umm maybe if I was a steely eyed marine, but as I'm a bookworm 43 year old Aussie who hates sport, I think I might try a different approach.

I prefer the- "Didn't I meet you on the set of(insert TV soap of your choice here)..." type strategy.

Probably explains why I'm talking pick-up lines with Beelzebub.

I'm 28.

I was just naming a few movies off the top of my head, I didn't know you were looking for a comprehensive list of every movie that I have ever enjoyed.

I was just listing a few favorites.

I would have no problem finding 20 good films in the last 20 years under your standards. The thing is, none of them would be Michael Bay or Kevin Smith movies.

I won't argue a matter of taste with you, because it's subjective, my issues with loose changes are about the lies, distortions and untruths in it, I assume thats the same with everyone else here.

Fine you don't like Kevin Smith's body of work, but come on don't equate it to Loose Change. You think Kevin Smith makes bad films, some of us disagree. But the thing about Loose Change is that it's not just a bad film, it's a flat out wrong film.

I respect your opinion.

I think Kevin Smith is awful. Matt Damon is great when he's not acting in ****** movies.

I judge movies by their ability to affect me emotionally. That's how I judge all art, actually from films to wine.

brodski · 8th June 2007, 06:05 AM

So, is there any update on when Dylan will be fulfilling his newfound potential to "die happy" or will this just be another in a long line of broken promises and missed deadlines?

Actually I have to agree with those who are not big K. Smith Fans. Those films I have watched (Chasing Amy, Clerks, Dogma) I have not liked. I find them intellectual in their humor, but too much so alot of the time, and then other elements are just retarded. Dogma, in particular, drove me insane in a bad way.

Now in interviews, I have enjoyed listening to Smith, and feel he is a very intelligent, and likely to many, genius man.

One thing that really bugged me about Dogma was having an Angel of Death called "Loki" and a demon called "Azrael". I mean, why swap names around and mess them up? The actual mythological names are perfectly adequate.

Stuff like that just says to me "We couldn't be bothered doing any research". It's lazy filmmaking. What makes it worse is I suspect Kevin Smith is the sort of guy who would sit around with his friends complaining about how the latest comic book adaptation into film changed x y and z.

Actually, I think that was Smith's way of poking fun at the Catholic church...well one way, anyway.

I could be wrong, but I always interpreted that as just being another snipe at Catholicism.

Except Azrael is from Islamic mythology and Loki from Norse myth. Neither name is associated with Catholicism, as far as I know.

Climate warfare?

Okay now this might sound crazy, but since when has that stopped me? :-)

I have been thinking for some time about the possibility that Hurricane Katrina might have been deliberately engineered by some technology for manipulating the climate. I got the idea from an old Mel Gibson movie, Conspiracy Theory (only, in that movie it isn't a hurricane but an earthquake). The notion is a bit wacky, but I didn't really take the possibility seriously until now. Just now I read this article on 911Booger (not 911Blogger) that raises the possibility that Cyclone Gonu has been engineered deliberately to threaten Iran (possibly accomplished with the use of chemtrails).

I'd rather he lives to 80 with people pointing and laughing at him. It looks very likely.

Foolmewunz · 8th June 2007, 05:55 PM

Well, two of them over on LCF at least go it right. Maybe Dylan's bong emptied out long enough that he finally figured it out because the excitement and thrills have completely died out.

A plug is usually a positive thing, though. It doesn't help having the movie mentioned if KS is taking the piss and being sarcastic.

Dylan, please DON'T play this on any radio show, it will damage the movement! KS is taking the piss and being sarcastic, and if you play it as though it supports us, it's just going to bite us in the arse!

Justicia:

Quote:

He didn't come across as sympathetic to the cause, though. It sounded more like he was making fun of us truthers, and making fun of you. Espeically the part where the other guy goes on about your "whining" voice and stuff - that was just mean and uncalled for. I don't think he's at all on side, and I don't think we should be promoting him when it's obvious he is an anti-truther and when he's dissing loose change.

Both of them are avid truthers, but they could at least see past the celebrity goggles to what Kevin was saying about their precious Dyllie Wyllie! So we'll stop promoting him! That'll show him! Yeah all both of your members will boycott his next film! You guys don't buy films anyway, you rip them from friends.

I know that. Hence, poking fun at the Catholic Church. Especially since Loki is a malevolent trickster god in Norse mythology.

he bought the soundtrack to the movie. And with the background music running he could recited the script as it played; like how it happened in the movie.

Keep reading Dylans response. The boy really has them blinders on.

Quote:

I'll be playing it uncensored tonight on Revere Radio as well.

Look...if he hated the film, or was an anti-9/11 Truth, he would have stopped after saying, "I described it as the Loose Change of UFOs..." Instead, he goes off to describe the film and a claim it made in the first edition.

Just because he wasn't shouting "9/11 Was an Inside Job" doesn't mean he isn't sympathetic to the cause

Those films I have watched (Chasing Amy, Clerks, Dogma) I have not liked. I find them intellectual in their humor, but too much so alot of the time, and then other elements are just retarded. Dogma, in particular, drove me insane in a bad way. Now in interviews, I have enjoyed listening to Smith, and feel he is a very intelligent, and likely to many, genius man. TAM One thing that really bugged me about Dogma was having an Angel of Death called "Loki" and a demon called "Azrael". I mean, why swap names around and mess them up? The actual mythological names are perfectly adequate. Stuff like that just says to me "We couldn't be bothered doing any research". It's lazy filmmaking. What makes it worse is I suspect Kevin Smith is the sort of guy who would sit around with his friends complaining about how the latest comic book adaptation into film changed x y and z. -Gumboot

I could be wrong, but I always interpreted that as just being another snipe at Catholicism.

Neither name is associated with Catholicism, as far as I know.

This serves to highlight the inanity of 9/11 conspiracy theories. And so someone does: Quote: Wednesday, June 06, 2007 Climate warfare? Okay now this might sound crazy, but since when has that stopped me? :-) I have been thinking for some time about the possibility that Hurricane Katrina might have been deliberately engineered by some technology for manipulating the climate. I got the idea from an old Mel Gibson movie, Conspiracy Theory (only, in that movie it isn't a hurricane but an earthquake). The notion is a bit wacky, but I didn't really take the possibility seriously until now. Just now I read this article on 911Booger (not 911Blogger) that raises the possibility that Cyclone Gonu has been engineered deliberately to threaten Iran (possibly accomplished with the use of chemtrails).

Maybe Dylan's bong emptied out long enough that he finally figured it out because the excitement and thrills have completely died out. http://z10.invisionfree.com/Loose_Ch...ic=10382&st=50 The voices in the wilderness: PersonalRevolution: Quote: A plug is usually a positive thing, though. It doesn't help having the movie mentioned if KS is taking the piss and being sarcastic. Dylan, please DON'T play this on any radio show, it will damage the movement! KS is taking the piss and being sarcastic, and if you play it as though it supports us, it's just going to bite us in the arse! Justicia: Quote: He didn't come across as sympathetic to the cause, though. It sounded more like he was making fun of us truthers, and making fun of you. Espeically the part where the other guy goes on about your "whining" voice and stuff - that was just mean and uncalled for. I don't think he's at all on side, and I don't think we should be promoting him when it's obvious he is an anti-truther and when he's dissing loose change. Both of them are avid truthers, but they could at least see past the celebrity goggles to what Kevin was saying about their precious Dyllie Wyllie! So we'll stop promoting him! That'll show him! Yeah all both of your members will boycott his next film! You guys don't buy films anyway, you rip them from friends.

Quote: I'll be playing it uncensored tonight on Revere Radio as well. Look...if he hated the film, or was an anti-9/11 Truth, he would have stopped after saying, "I described it as the Loose Change of UFOs..." Instead, he goes off to describe the film and a claim it made in the first edition. Just because he wasn't shouting "9/11 Was an Inside Job" doesn't mean he isn't sympathetic to the cause . http://z10.invisionfree.com/Loose_Ch...ic=10382&st=50
