For you maybe. If you want to defend the MCU, why don’t you try doing that once as well. No, not for me, for you. Your whole persona is weak, and you ain't got the stones to mess with Death Man. You're a troublemaking troll a coward and a liar. Yeah, DairyHeiress and I exchanged notes on your extracurricular activities outside of the CBM boards yesterday. You're a colossal joke. I got you on speed dial, dipshit. I don't just own you - I operate you, and I void the warranty - for laughs. How long will it be before your running scared again and self-delete because you got cornered on some lame and ignorant nonsense you posted? You want to act stupid, and play the fool, do it on your own time. When you tell me what I should like and how I should like it; you're clearly losing your battle with sanity, son. You savor the opportunity to walk up to people's front doors, defecate on their lawn and tell them it's gold. But, the thing is, you have nothing to say of any merit about anything to anyone. Chimps throwing feces at the walls of their cages have more well-reasoned arguments and opinions. Tired of humoring you, kid. Now before you respond, take a minute for yourself and set some goals. Well that was easy 😎

So if "someone" is employing racist, homophobic, etc lingo, admin should be notified for the health of the board. It's long overdue to cull the herd. This should not be the playground for "someone's" personal assaults and vendettas, and blatant lies. The intent to inflict harm upon another member, come to find out, is not okay. I've never used the Report function up until last week, but now I understand how the politics board got overrun by the perpetually hostile. Dunno how it is here, but worthy dialogue, and yes even passionate disagreements, need not be sullied by outrageous and purposefully obscene behavior/language. Anyone can believe whatever they want, it's a matter of context and delivery. Now, I believe I've kept within the boundaries of my "truce" agreement in terms of protecting "someone's" fragile sensibilities, but if anyone sees it otherwise, I'd be happy to hear honest feedback. Peace be with you, LDM Keep fighting the Good fight!

When agitators make it hard for people who are just looking for good conversation and a place to relax and enjoy themselves, that's just not okay.Peace be with you as well, DH. -LDM Well put, LDM! THAT sums up the crux of my ongoing discussion with the mods. I don't need anyone to protect me from naughty words, or members that are not being "nice." I've been called any number of vile things without even thinking of having "daddy" come in to mediate, or punish my "opponent." I can fight my own battles. However, seems that tact isn't reciprocated by the ones who know how to manipulate the rules and mods. In terms of "someone," s/he knows well how to cross the line, achieve her/his objective, retreat when admonished then turn the focus on the other member who is simply defending themselves and responding to the initial assault. I did get called out for "flaming," a term I didn't even know the meaning of until accused of it. (For real, cuz chat rooms aren't my entire world.) Given what "someone" did to prompt this act, I am no longer apologetic to the mods or "someone" because I feel my actions were justified. Moreover, that "bad" act resulted in getting to know uber-cool cats like yourself, people whom otherwise I wouldn't have bumped into, so I put my "flaming" spree in the win column. I'll take my lumps like a big girl, I'm just not going to sit here and be stifled by a known recidivist. As far as I'm concerned, and I told the mod this, I was doing this forum a favor, and kinda doing THEIR job. Letting a rabid dog loose time and again thinking the slap on the snout "cured" the disease has been an entirely impotent and ineffective approach, and at the expense of the overall health and reputation of the board. Like you, and I think a lot of folks who just browse but dare not post for fear of absurd retaliation, I think the intent is for this to be an enjoyable place to exchange ideas and sure, debate varied points of view. No one gets anything out of an echo chamber. It's just a shame when vitriolic responses or targeted assaults trump or squelch honest, measured dialogue. Don't get me wrong, I'm no angel by any stretch, but I don't approach any session hoping to get into a pointless brawl. It appears that many get pleasure from that type of experience ("someone" comes to mind, say), but me, not so much. Sorry, this kinda got away from me. But this pretty much sums up my new mission as it applies to those who bully and assault for sport. I'm not having it anymore. If I get sanctioned/banned for it, so be it. It'd at least be for a good cause. It has been such an unexpected pleasure meeting you, LDM! Heck, b/c of you I may hover over here to learn something new. 'Course I wouldn't know a DCU(?) from MIT, so then there's that.... Rock on, Lord Death Man !

Annihilation sucked balls.
1. Why didn’t they just drive to the lighthouse? Wearing bio suits? Surely there was a road leading to the lighthouse.
2. You mean, no one ever walked into the shimmer a short distance ... with a rope tied around their waist ... took samples ... and then walked (got pulled out) out?
3. You mean, no one ever reached the lighthouse, even when the shimmer was real small?
4. You mean, they couldn’t have dropped a smart bomb on the lighthouse, since they knew it was ground zero.
5. You mean, they kept building those permanent concrete structures when they knew that they would have to soon be abandoned when the shimmer engulfed them?
6. Hey, how about we stack a bunch of human bones outside the lighthouse for no reason, just to befuddle the audience. Audience theories should be fun to read.
7. The Natalie Portman character unloads a full clip at an alligator at point blank range, and the other characters are impressed with her ... marksmanship?
8. So, every interesting development was revealed in the trailers. No surprises, no sense of discovery for the audience. And the big payoff at the end was that silly mime routine at the lighthouse ... by a goofy alien entity that may or may not have been sentient?
9. Oh wait, the big payoff at the end was the glowing eyes ... indicating a sequel if this movie is successful. (Looks unlikely)
I grow tired of this sort of movie where the filmmaker can only provide the style and makes the audience concoct the substance out of thin air.

nice. Thanks for the tip. Cult film a la Cronenberg. But only for the cerebral mind. Probably on par with Ex Machina.

Yup its very good. And many films are greater than Black panther. But really what is the point of this thread other than to try and goad people? Because some people are acting like BP deserves an Oscar nomination and we're not even 3 full months into the year. Yeah, how ridiculous is that?! People were never like that with Wonder Woman.

SJW, feminazi and all-round Internet moron, Grace Randolph, has already done a run down of BP's chances of winning an Oscar in just about every freaking category.

Let's not make this about any individual users as we all know how that turns out in the end.
Stick to the weird comparison that is Annihilation and Black Panther I guess.
