    Why does anyone in Middle Earth take the Orcs seriously?

    That deus ex machina shit is because of Peter Jackson. In the book it isn't even clear whether the ghosts can physically harm anyone.

    Help me figure out American Psycho

    Almost all of his murders are ridiculous and over-the-top, and it's well established that he's bonkers (I doubt the ATM really said "Feed me a stray cat"). The killings being figments of his imagination pretty well explains the more bizarre aspects of the film, like the fact that he runs naked...

    AN AWKWARD RELIGIOUS AND MORAL DILEMMA

    Wait, I don't get it, are you currently in a relationship? Are you even sure this girl is into you?

    Breaking Bad discussion thread

    Walt will never have an empire comparable to Gus IMO. His greed, pride, delusion and carelessness (shooting someone in a fit of rage is not something a cautious man does) guarantee that he's doomed to failure.

    Breaking Bad discussion thread

    I really don't think Walt cares much about Jesse (or anyone) anymore, not enough to risk his life again anyway. Mostly he just has a weird obsession and probably enjoys the fact that he can manipulate him so easily.

    Jesus Christ Marie, it's a mineral.

    Poll: Internet license

    That's a good point, because the internet is just as dangerous as a 3000 pound vehicle that can go 150 miles per hour or a firearm that is literally designed to kill things.

    Poll: Internet license

    Or, how about we all learn how to take care of ourselves and not turn this into a nanny state?

    Bad Language and the US of A

    Of course not. If you're mature enough to handle the show where we see a child shot in the chest and corpses being melted in a barrel, you should probably be able to stomach the f-word. This is just how AMC is though, they have particularly stringent rules about profanity. I think Breaking...

    Help choosing a second language.

    Spanish is definitely a global language - it opens up almost the whole of Central and South America for you, as well as Mexico. French is huge in much of Africa (and France obviously) and it's a great language to know in Canada, since bilingualism is hugely appreciated here. This depends...

    What Job do you think you would good at?

    Anything where I ruthlessly pursue wealth, Daniel Plainview style. Love that movie.

    The best hat (No not the tf2 kind I'm talking about real ones)

    "Really cool movie and video game characters wear fedoras...that means a fedora will look really cool on me!!!" - neckbeard logic Odds are you don't look like Don Draper or Indiana Jones, sorry. The only acceptable time to wear a fedora is with a suit (PROTIP: the situation must actually...

    The best hat (No not the tf2 kind I'm talking about real ones)

    Wearing a fedora is going to make you look like a socially awkward neckbeard. Please don't do it.

    Tae Kwon Do or Aikido?

    Great excuse for unrealistic training. How will you ever know what an actual fight would be like, if you don't train against resisting opponents? Yeah...this is ridiculous. For one thing, how do you have any idea your "deadly" moves can actually do anything? It's not like you've ever executed...
