'Cause my points shouldn't have had responses to them other than casual "lols" or joking "nuh-uhhhs!"
And, don't talk about my hotes like that. It's rude.
It's a typo, but it's nice to know you came running to this thread to comment on it.
Very flattering, says a lot.

Clearly I meant holes.
Also, what do you mean "Shouldn't have"? The world and forum does not start and/or stop at Dadudemon's say so, sorry to inform you.
I'm not RJ. My posting vocab does not begin with boobs and end with playground retaliation. Whatever, though. You're not gonna reply, so I'll discuss the movie with someone else.

I meant, "Should not have..." with that.
Originally posted by Alpha CentauriRelax. You get more into it than DDM sometimes.So...basically what I said.
The moral was that the book can inspire good things, because that is where we know of Jesus from.
No, he said that the book was CLAIMED to have been the cause of the war, and I'm not saying he said it WAS. He said that it was claimed to have been the reason and that the books were burned as a result.
He never put such a spin on it as to say: "People went on a bible hating spree.".
The fact is, it's never explained how or why the book is believed to have caused such a devestating war. If it did, IF, then getting the **** rid of them would be justifiable cause. The one book that Eli had caused a shitload of people to die that wouldn't have died had it not existed. Eli could have gone around and done good things for people regardless.
It's not a movie that makes the best case for the bible, to be honest. It's the most ridiculous message to have: "The bible has some good messages.". Thanks...I didn't know that in 2010. "The bible can be bad if misused by ANYONE (Because killing people for it is as bad as killing people to get it, Eli was blind in more ways than one).". True, because I didn't realise that either in 2010.
My mistake, you didn't get that I was making a joke.
I enjoyed it up until the ending where it just didn't have a f*cking clue what point it was trying to make, and so it tried making the most obvious and most cop-out point available.
What bothers me additionally is the fact that Eli said EVERYONE burned the bibles, right? So obviously it was popular opinion that they were to blame (Whether they were or not is unstated). Why, then, does Terence Stamp's character think that religious texts are something that they need to be carrying into a new world?
It obviously didn't do a ton of good when they had them before.

Debates are debates for a reason. I've asked this to a billion people, but how would you have me act? How do people expect debates to be handled? Would it make you feel better if I sat here wearing a party hat?
Leave those who want to get into it, to get into it. Getting into a debate doesn't suggest a need to relax.

So does this movie suck or what? I was planning on maybe seeing it tomorrow.
It doesn't suck, it just completely defeats itself. You may like it though, lots of explosions and Jesus stuff.
I'm hesitant to really recommend stuff to you, simply because you thought The Hurt Locker and Inglorious Basterds were shit films.
