Az, I apologize, I was out of line. I think you know that was uncharacteristic of me. I meant no disrespect, if I didn't respect you I wouldn't keep commenting.

I know you're not saying your view is the "right" view. I just see this like those Debate Faith discussions where no one seems to hear the other person.

Sometimes emotions cloud my reason. I'm sorry for my rudeness. I apologize.

This video is hardly an argument for the movie to be interpreted as I have interpreted it. It's an explanation of my interpretation. I don't appreciate your tone, nor your presumption that this is somehow an attack on you and yours. I'm certainly not the one claiming that interpreting it my way is the only way to be considered smart in this area, so piss off. I don't deserve your rudeness.

Nice Nose Ring, Where Can I Get One?

I'm kidding, don't tell me.. I don't give a shit.. It looks gay.

I liked Godzilla. :(

And the egg at the end was meant to lead into the animated series, where that Godzilla hatched, saw the main character, decided he was its mother and then protected New York.

Dude, that was the worst video I've ever seen.

Well like Jeff here I didn't quite like the movie, and consequently I'v sort of forgotten what he looked like there, but he certainly looks nothing like the Comedian in the GN

[xsilexemcx]

You don't see the resemblance?

[hazaraku]

Uhm, no?

[xsilexemcx]

You know, you kind of look like the Comedian.

Mind, this isn't to say that the underlying story was all that bad - just that it was covered withan intolerable layer of Moore's "dukkha".

I don't begrudge others for liking his stuff (unless they piss me off). But I don't like his stuff in general - not because I don't "get" it, but because I do.

Moore can be a real pain in the arse when he wants. Snyder is not nearly as bad. He does a good job of sanitizing and tightening Moores story - which may not work for everyone, but does for me.

*) The vacuous Left radical ideology slammed home at every opportunity.

*) The lame insults directed at others in the comic business (especially Ditko).

*) The allegories to 1980s politics that fall flat when taken at face value (ie, the squid).

*) The generally weak understanding of concept ramifications (ie, how precognition would affect behavior).

*) The overall obscene pretentiousness of the work throughout.
