Most people seem to take it for the light hearted avatar that it is but you'd be surprised at some of the people that seem to think that insulting the teddy bear will get me worked up.

Havent seen Pain Olympics or Serbian Movie, are they twisted sister type movies? I saw the other films. CW we had this conversation once before re Savage Grace. Match Point, for some reason stresses me way out, I saw the film at the cinema and have the dvd, but cannot bring myself to watch it, sooooo stressful. The part where he murders the elderly lady, the tension and Scarlett's role descending into utter degradation, trying to win her man. What was interesting was the depiction of the chasm between the classes. I love the British. So many eccentrics in the aristocracy.


The Antichrist, can't forget that lovemaking scene by the TREE! He would have to be on Viagra to get it up under those circumstances. Although VoT, its seems to have had a similar affect upon you. LOL

I trust you waited until after the movie! That movie was in 2009, a long between "drinks".

the later, if you meant "sinister" and not "sister", is indeed so. The former... well. Why don't you give google a quick search? I'm sure you'll find lots of.... meaty information

.

But this is exactly why the film is rubbish: its an American's outdated view of a class system that no Brit would recognise. The US has a far more structured class system than the UK. The only difference is that it is hidden by the lack of honorifics and titles.
In my experience of both countries the US is far more snobbish about wealth and birth than the modern Brit.

You could have made this film 60 years ago, but it seems a bit hollow now.

The US likes to think of themselves as rid of aristocrats etc. but the wealth gap is bigger their than anywhere else.
60 years ago it was unthinkable that the Queen would have participated in the way she did on the Olympic Opening Ceremony - but even the Royal Family can't take itself seriously anymore. Things change and Woody is out of touch.


As for "Antichrist" is managed to miss it!
What is VoT?

VoT = The Voice of Time ^^ Like Chaz or RE (reasonvsemotion). You're a slow one there ^^

Not really. The context did not seem to make sense.

Maybe you can explain: "The Antichrist, can't forget that lovemaking scene by the TREE! He would have to be on Viagra to get it up under those circumstances. Although VoT, its seems to have had a similar affect upon you. LOL"

oh common. People say "VoT" all the time over this forum. You've read must be dozens of times. Anyways, nothing worth discussing, you got your answer.

What now? That the girl I talked about wanted to kill herself after she had had sex with me blaming herself for the suicide of her best-friend?

What lives we lead.

mine is actually quite exciting, always something happening, though that one is an example of something I could've been without...

(talking about what lives we live I just now staying at my parents farm without their knowing while they are on vacation in Greece! A friend (which by the way is a crazy 50-year-old former money-launder caught in his first attempt) invited me here to stay...)

Urban Dictionary twisted sister

The art of a man tucking his balls and weiner in between his legs acting as if he had a vagina. This is usually coupled by dancing in front of a mirror while saying "Put the lotion in the basket"

Dude grossed me out. He got me with a twisted sister

in other words.......... naaaaasty.

That is interesting. When I lived in Britain and visited Scotland a few times, I noted "eccentricity" there, in the so called creme dela ceme. I was under the impression the Americans "bought" their titles. Ha I was thinking more of the titled, rather than the richest in wealth.

CW, if you Google, The Antichrist, "the tree" is shown in one of the trailers.

okay. But the example given was not approaching for galaxy's distance to anything you'll see in those two movies in terms of nastiness or just simple plain inhumanity. Pain Olympics are, by what my more interested friends tell me and a quick search on the internet has provided me of too much exemplification: the abomination of human beings natural beauty through the partition of body parts and other forms of bathing people in their own blood and gore. The one example-picture I got and which pretty much sent my bowls in full retreat from the website was a woman carried, no, not carried, but stuck, on a spear over a camp fire, blood coming from her mouth. It looks so real, and nothing has of yet indicated for me it isn't real, or indicated for my friends who did have the stomach to see a portion of a movie from the stuff (although I think many of them had twisted bowels when finished). The given movie was a man who voluntarily partitioned his penis and testicles etc., or no, I think instead he smashed them with a hammer, that was the case...

A Serbian Movie is renowned for specifically one scene (though the rest of the movie is not much less bad) where a newborn baby is raped in full footage (this is fiction of course) because of some remotely bizarre situation of a guy having the only chance to save his life or something like it.

BUUUUUUT, now we're waaay beyond topic, and I don't think I have much of the stomach to argue more about nasty movies. The word nasty just isn't sufficient for these movies. I've seen Brüno, a gay version of Borat, and to some extent I thought it nasty, but it's a nastiness incomparable to these other movies, so somebody better think out a new more appropriate word for baby-raping and testicle crunching!

Abomination comes to mind. That sort of stuff should be reported.
