In Reply to: i'm sorry but you contradicted yourself within all of your own responses posted by NuWave on September 12, 2006 at 13:43:09:

Saying that "Since I haven't seen it I can't comment on it's merits" isn't a defense, it merely provides context. "OTOH," ...on the other hand, is entirely appropriate, as is "but" given the context. As for the film, it's easy to find cause for concern based on a) the theme, as it's being promoted, and b) the still photographs which display the PinocchiOTUS's ugly mugg superimposed over an actor's face.

So, does one have to actually SEE a movie before questioning certain controversial aspects of the film based on publicity? Given that context, m'thinks not, but that doesn't qualify as a review either; it's just a subjective impression of how the film is being marketed to the public. I'd have to see the film before providing a first hand analysis of it's merits (hence my comment).

Furthermore, I'm adamantly opposed to 2nd hand reviews being posted as first-hand opinions, so you never have to worry about me trying to snow you with my opinions; FYI, they're almost always strongly formed and adequately informed.

Trust me, I was being kind! Furthermore, it isn't name-calling if such comments aren't directed specifically at you (they weren't). In fairness, those terms were a triffle harsh, albeit completely honest. Sorry if you were offended by the truth.

>>> "You are correct in that these types of comments ARE more at place in the outside asylum, which is what I try to avoid it, but it seems to have leaked into here." <<<

No, it isn't a leak (those usually originate from the Bush WH, BTW). Try to keep in mind that YOU are the person who brought politics into this discussion with a couple of ridiculous statistical fractured fairy tales that don't even begin to give an accurate picture of how things are in this country.

You would probably do well to continue to avoid the great Outside. No offense, but you're apparently too sensitive and easily offended to hold up well in that fast paced environment.
