They've been beating this "realism" drum from day one and it doesn't wash. Not one damn thing about this is realistic, with the possible exception of the sense of scale but you'd be hard pressed NOT to get that right in a live action film.

When I read ill-informed, overbearing, sabre-rattling, chest-thumping, war-mongering stupidity on a level that is so base it's disgusting, rest assured I do care but not very much.

FYI, Iraq didn't attack America on 9/11. The End.

No, no, no. Starscream is a jet (an F22) but his robot mode has a tiny head, huge arms and dinky little legs, in short he looks like a gorilla in "robot" mode.

And no, no Soundwave either. Frenzy is in it somehow (he's whatever that thing is under the guy's chair, a laptop or something. Bay said there would be no mass-shifting, so no Soundwave, no gun Megatron, no-any-transformer that either shrinks or grows when they change.

Don't even get me started on the lips... guh, Optimus Prime? More like Optimouth Lame...

It's already in the works, in fact the transformers movie's success or failure will have a direct impact on the greenlighting of the JOE movie. Mark Walberg is slated for Duke.

YESSSSS Starscream is going to be silly in this movie.

If by silly you mean shitty, then yes. He's a monkey for fucks sakes, A MONKEY.

And you guys really need to stop looking at pictures of the vehicle modes and saying "Gee this looks pretty good..." Of course THAT looks good, those are real fucking vehicles!

Is it too much to ask people to have some basic fucking critical standards these days?!

FUCK!!

I like 'em just fine, so you're wrong.

You guys need to get over this concept of "formula", all tv shows are formulaic, it's what makes tv TV for fuck sakes!

Distantly related to the house of Windsor but that's meaningless, we're all related to somebody important if you go back far enough.

The Colbert Report isn't much better. Steven acts like an egotistical ass.

You people really have no grasp of the concept of SATIRE, do you?

And your president IS retarded. Okay? He's a fucking drooling moron ex-cokehead drunk with a fake southern accent. FACE FACTS.

Skepticism is simply doubt, with no prior assumptions as to the validity of a claim. Cynicism is doubt based on the assumption that the claim is false.

We tax alcohol.

Why is marijuana different?

Of the three, maijuana is the easiest to self-produce, no plantations or distilleries required.

At 4/9/07 11:42 PM, Elfer wrote: Fun fact: Alcohol prohibition was the time when big organised crime sprang up in the US, due to the need for a supply and distribution chain to be set up. Before that, the local city-sized crime syndicates had no reason to communicate with each other.

Point of order: if those crime syndicates already existed prior to prohibition then all that means is that prohibition simply served as an extemely profitable opportunity for them, not a point of genesis. Further, those crime syndicates did not disappear when prohibition ended, ergo existing drug gangs would refocus their efforts into other areas of crime were drugs to be legallized.

Ultimately however, there is one HUMONGOUS flaw in this argument: regulation relies on honest governance. Obviously, this isn't the case, one only has to look at the tabbacco industry and the enormous pull it has on government through lobbies. Can you imagine the fiscal weight behind cocaine?

Even in cases where legalization exists, there's no guarantee people will aqcuire their drugs through approved channels.

If by worst you mean most truthful, then yes. I was ugly and skinny when I was his age. Guess what? I'm still ugly and skinny now. All the platitudes and positive thinking in the world isn't going to alter his genetics or scoiety's standardized beauty model. Better he face facts now and get on with it rather than seek conformation of things that aren't true or erect fantasies to distract him from the reality of his predicament. Life sucks, so grab a fucking helmet.

That's still beneficial. Anything that removes stupid/useless people from the gene-pool is a-okay with me.

Of course, I don't claim this is a realistic goal right now, probably not even in the next fifty years, maybe not even in a hundred. But if you want to get the ball rolling, people need to get talking about prohibition and the harm it's causing to society, and we need to stop supporting a policy that doesn't work.

I don't think you're following my argument. There is considerable evidence to support the notion that governments are actually responsible for most of the illegal drug trafficking that goes on (CIA connections to columbian drug lords, etc). In other words, they're playing both sides of the field. It's not in their own best interest to legalize drugs that are making them millions while simultaneously justifying the need to maintain a tax structure to fund agencies whose theoretical mandate is to fight those self-same drug sources. Add in the massive amounts of money they make in lobbies from pharmaceutical companies and the sheer volume of money becomes dizzying.

And let's be realistic here, governments don't really respond to the will of the people until they're one hair away from open revolt. Remember the literal MILLIONS of people who protested the invasion of Iraq around the globe? Didja happen to notice Iraq still got invaded? Me too. Odd, isn't it?

There's no statistical data to back up that assumption. That said, if true it would be benefitial.

The private companies, government and criminals are the ones ALREADY involved in the distribution of drugs illegally. They're not going to upset their own apple carts just so the drug addled masses can get their fixes minus lawful entanglements. What do you think the DEA's gonna do, start handing out parking tickets? Not fucking likely.

Not to be overtly cliche but if you think the government will EVER legalize drugs, you must be seriously high. Some? Eventually... maybe. All? NEVER.

Why the hell would want to buy a soft drink called "Mr. Pib" anyway? At least "Dr. Pepper" sounds credible. "Mr. Pib" sounds like the name of that creepy guy who lives down the end of the block that everyone suspects is a child molestor...

The notion that legalizing drugs will somehow effect the crime rate is hopelessly naive. It would certainly put darwinism to the test however.

Nope.

Why would you need another version of Dr. Pepper? You can't improve on perfection, you silly billies!

He's trying to put forth the notion that saying "I believe in..." lowers the credibility of the statement, rather than addressing it as a limitation of the english language. If I say "I believe the sun will set around 7pm" I'm really making an estimate, not stating some ephemeral notion.

In other words, he's just being a tool.
