Well I don't think this is a "crappy" song at all, but a lot of people do for some reason.

There’s even monster rape in couple of movies I remember from the early 80s. Humanoids From The Deep 1980 and The Beast Within 1982. Don’t forget tree rape in The Evil Dead.

Religion has done a lot of good in the world. It's just the corrupt giving it a bad name Look at it this way, people will fight over anything. With or without religion With the absence of external or 'spiritual' Gods, we turn to other Gods to worship. Materialism, power, money, sex, control. Most of those “gods” are pretty closely entwined with religion anyway.

Not sure why this thread got moved. It was clearly labelled OT and I assume the intent of starting a thread of the Politics board is to discuss the topic with people who frequent the Politics board.

I finished the season - I cried when Gogu was taken from Mando, and I'm a little confused. The Jedi is Luke Skywalker? If so, how is it that Yoda is still a child, and how can it be Luke that teaches Yoda when it was the other way around in the films? It's not Yoda, it is a child of the same species as Yoda. The events of "The Mandalorian" take place after the end of "The Return of the Jedi". Darth Vader is dead, the emperor is dead, and so is Yoda.

Yep really enjoyed it - and without getting into spoilers, the CGI at the end was definitely better than in Rogue One...

I know the answer perfectly well, it’s the US by far. I just wanted to see if you could give a straightforward answer to a simple question, and as usual you can’t. As usual you prefer to reduce everything down to simplistic buzzwords so you can make up simplistic answers that relate more to your bigotry than to reality. It is a pretty simple question, with a simple answer. It's not "bigotry" to point out the fact that the US has much more religious freedom than Pakistan.

Since you’re focusing on the blasphemy angle, I’ll ask another simple question - which country has greater religious freedom, the USA or Pakistan? You are even more stupid than I thought if you dont know. Despite American politics being tightly controlled by evangelical christian zealots Pakistan is said to have much less religious freedom. I know the answer perfectly well, it’s the US by far. I just wanted to see if you could give a straightforward answer to a simple question, and as usual you can’t.

Yes, Islam is a problem, as evidenced by the fact that every single Muslim majority country is more repressive and less free than any Western democracy. Or do you deny this? You saw my list of Americas freedoms, leading with locking up more people than any other country. But being good christians they let prisoners eat pork. Is Pakistan using the military to stop protests about repressive policies against minorities? Is America? I forgot. Pakistan has a law against people calling its prophet a paedophile. Of course good Christians and Jews allow their Priests and Rabbis to be paedophiles. Ah freedom! Since you’re focusing on the blasphemy angle, I’ll ask another simple question - which country has greater religious freedom, the USA or Pakistan?

And I' m sure no Muslim countries do that... If you think that you are even more naive than I thought, although no more stupid. So it is Islam, not Pakistan that is the problem. Why dont you give us some examples in Western Sydney where Christian proselytisers or anti Islam activists were executed, or even are illegal. Or Malaysia. Or Londonistan. Yes, Islam is a problem, as evidenced by the fact that every single Muslim majority country is more repressive and less free than any Western democracy. Or do you deny this?

Can you please answer my question? No. Its worse. America imprisons people without trial for political purposes. And I' m sure no Muslim countries do that...

So you really think that the US is more repressive than Pakistan? I know you hate the US and love Islam, but surely you can't actually believe that. Pakistan is Muslim. It must be the worst. Fucking ignorant bigot. Well, even the most liberal Muslim countries have less individual freedom than any Western democracy. And Pakistan is hardly one of the most liberal Muslim countries...

Which country is the more repressive of the two - Pakistan or the USA? Looking at the blm protests and their repression by troops. Thinking of more people imprisonned than anywhere else, including more children than any other country Looking at institutional disenfranchisement by gerrymanders, removal of polling places, attempts to prevent people voting by onerous rules Looking at massive enforced poverty in oher countries by restrictive sanctions designed to destroy a countries economy, affecting the poorest people inordinately Looking at thousands of deaths by illegal wars for regime change, and in one case, support for chemical weapons on civilian populations No contest. So you really think that the US is more repressive than Pakistan? I know you hate the US and love Islam, but surely you can't actually believe that.

And apart from the few 'do the crime, do the time' politicians it is generally acknowledged here that long term racist policies are responsible for Australias Aboriginal prison population. Alcoholism, domestic violence, brain damage leading to violence and poor emotional tolerance caused by foetal alcohol syndrome and child petrol sniffing are leading causes. There appears to be a strong movement illustrated by the lack of seriousness given by the right to BLM that since the racial discrimination laws of the 1960s America now has no racism. A ludicrous claim. But my point remains. While Pakistan can rightly be criticised for some cultural habits, Americans seem blind to equally obnoxious laws and culture. Which country is the more repressive of the two - Pakistan or the USA?

Egh, i’d still give the edge to Sean Connery even with his share of bad films. I do enjoy most of Daniel Craig’s better than the other eras. The only really bad one was Diamonds Are Forever (Never Say Never Again doesn't count).

Considering Lazenby only made one film and Dalton two, but I liked each of them, they're batting 1000. NTTD would have to be amazing in order to make up for Spectre. What about Brosnan? Brosnan had one great film (Goldeneye), two decent ones (TND and TWINE) and one dreadful one (Die Another Day).

Since Quantum of Solace is by far the worst Bond film Im going to say no. Worse than Die Another Day or Octopussy? No way.

mad that some directors don't feel the need to have mandatory diversity quotas in their movies? Mad that women and black people exist? Just because they exist, doesn't mean they need to be shoehorned into a story that doesn't call for it.
