Sonny Wrote:Just got back from Death Race. I really really enjoyed it! Its like Mad Max 2 on steroids!

It reminded me of the The Running Man, but with bad ass cars.

I just watched Apocalypto for the 3rd time, It's a great movie IMO.

WALL-E is fantastic, I dont mind the subplots too, the opening scenes are great.

It says so much for how great it is that it goes downhill when humans and speech comes into it!

lousy humans!

Thats a bit of a silly reason not to watch a movie. Disaster movie is more insulting, just because its so damned bad.

I have learning difficulties and the term "retard" is offensive to me, it may be a silly a reason not to waqtch it but I'm sticking to my guns as this subject is very imorptant to me

One word can ruins someones day, or brighten their lives.

I'm gonna agree with Herschey on this one Sonny.

Just saw Starship Troopers 3: Marauder, wasnt too bad, very B movie and straight to DVD fare but still an enjoyable film let down only by a somewhat dismal end battle.

Roll on number 4!

See You On The Bounce Troopers!

Well i have learning problems too and i didnt find it offensive, it was just a joke. You said you saw disaster movie yet that makes fun of Amy Winehouse, thus indirectly taking the piss out of drug-addicts or those in re-hab yet you didnt find that offensive, which you should have since its a more of a serious problem and the joke was in bad taste (just like the whole movie).

I just dont see any reason why someone should let a word hurt them or offend them. People need to grow some thicker skins, everyones too uptight and easily offended these days. Its just sticks and stones-remember that, and unless someone directly calls you a name and are in punching distance then dont let it bother you because its pointless to waste your energy on such a stupid, insignificant little thing dont you think?

How much damage can a word do?

Words can change the world Sonny - never underestimate the harm that words can do.

people with drug addictions more often than not bring them on themselves so personally I think they're fair game to ridicule, laugh at mock etc.....

learning difficulties are not the recipients choice and so if they choose to take offense or get upset about them then that is indeed their choice to opt out of watching a movie that they will probably not enjoy.

and why is it sticks and stones unless they are punchable? ..... thats a pretty puerile arguement that they don't upset you but you'd lash out violently for someone saying something that in the same sentence would not affect you if it was across a distance

Streaky is right about words doing a lot of harm

"Let's go," is a pretty good example of how lives can be affected

[Starscreams_Ghost]

oh and the films I saw were Death Race and The Happening

Its not if you gave it some thought.

Metaphorically, if theres something you can do about it then do it, if not stop whinging as that never achieves anything either.

But in my own personal case, yeah i would cave someones face in if what they said offended me.
