That is my opinion of Young Frankenstein. Everyone who talked about said something like how it was among the greatest comedies of all time. I watched it and at the end thought I watched some sort of foreign knock-off of the same name because I never smiled.angryfish said:

My point was that the Nolan films basically ignore and are even ashamed of their roots. That's got nothing to do with crazy written stories having come up over the years. If your villians are Scarecrow, Ra's Al Ghul, The Joker and Bane(plus 5 minutes of Talia Al Ghul!), Batman shouldn't feel out of place or unnecessary, but he does, because they're all reduced to just dudes. Even Joker felt like he was reduced to a guy who was just pretending to be "so crazy yo". DKR was also pretty dumb in that Goyer was trying to make some anti 1% statement, but then Batman swoops in and saves the day anyway, when he's like in the 1% of the 1%. The Nolan movies are good movies on their own merits, just not very good Superhero movies.Silvanus said:
Personally, I'm going to attribute this to David S Goyer, a man who is well known for not really liking or understanding comic books, to the point where he's quite happy to insult the very people who make up the core audience.
Oh boy do I have a few...
- I love Bioshock 2 as much as I do the entire Bioshock series (And by Sithis do I)
- I am agnostic towards religion and find religion to be like music, having different tastes can lead to some good discussion but find hardcore followers (theist or atheist) to annoying and a magnet for my anger...
- Gender to me is physical, period. If you want to identify as a man, have a sex change. I won't stop you and I will make a genuine attempt to call you the right pronouns but I won't set you up like some person who beat an army all by yourself.
- Anarchism, while I don't follow it, seem like trying to strive for world peace. Not exactly a bad ideal to strive for if you have the right intentions but you'd have a better chance fighting a bear with your arms and legs hacked off.
- People who see anime/manga as harem porn for people with underage schoolgirl fetishes are at best misinformed or at worst bigots. Granted, there is a bit of it that is just that but that's like me saying you are a satanist if you are into heavy metal.
- I loved X-Men: The Last Stand, I find the only complaint people have is 'my favourite character died!', so what? Itachi and Jiraiya died and Naruto wasn't shit because of it, it was shit because the story went to shit.
- The idea of being a vegan seems almost against nature to me. Are we not omnivores like nature intended?
- The wage gap is a load of shit and was debunked more times than I can count (by a feminist, Christina Hoff Sommers, no less!) and I still have to hear it thrown around as fact.
- The idea of being naked should not be seen as taboo, it's only natural.
- I don't see anything wrong with legal brothels, given it is consensual by both parties and only seen as a service provided by the Sex Worker for adequate pay.
- Top hats, trilbies and fedoras are f**king classy if worn right.
- Spiders are adorable.
- Star Wars is overrated.
- The Avengers is overrated.
- Megadeth is overrated.
- Five Nights at Freddy's lore is interesting but the game is boring.
- Morrowind is either put on a much too high pedestal or severely underrated.
- Oblivion is complete crap with Skyrim-grade story, Telly Tubby graphics, Troll Doll Annoying Fan and game mechanics that are meant for children who were bad at Fable.
- I, for some reason, greatly enjoyed Two Worlds.
- Ronnie James Dio > Ozzy Osbourne in vocals.
- Ronnie James Dio < Ozzy Osbourne in Black Sabbath.
- The Load/Reload Era in Metallica was awesome.
- Linkin Park and Nickelback are great.
- I hate Panty and Stocking.
- Naruto's dub > Naruto's sub.
- Soul Eater's dub is painful to listen to.
- I hate sushi.
- I hate chicken.
- I love eating kangaroo.
- Cicero if hilarious.
- I hate hearing people complain that Mortal Kombat X's fatalities are too gruesome. The game is meant to be as gruesome as it gets without being taken seriously as a game that is meant for 12 year olds who don't know maturity yet. If you don't like gruesome, go back to the hug-box from whence you came.

I have to ask, what is this weird juxtaposition between "natural" and "unnatural" in your opinions? Veganism is bad because it's unnatural? So is every facet of our society. Just a question.MrOmen said:
The maximum one should do in harming another person is doing the same amount of violence the person did in self-defence.
No amount of power should be allowed on a single person.
No amount of power should be allowed on few people.
Rating humans (and other species) by worth is the most damaging thing to ever have happened in human history.
Platons theory of ideas is correct to some extent, and it can be proven.
The Injustice League does not reign supreme.

Honestly, 'natural' is subjective at best but I would say that 'natural' is more what as humans we should do rather than what 'morals' or 'society' tell us what we should do as they are both just subjective preferences that vary from culture. Veganism, as I have heard based on experiences with self-labeled vegans, is just what people believe as wrong rather than what the human body seems built for. As for society's facets as a whole, I can easily say that most of it is 'natural'. Censorship in regards to banning violent video games is something I tend to disagree with but the intent behind the banning is perfectly 'natural'. I mean, would you not want to protect your children if you believed the phrase 'Monkey see, monkey do'? What people believe is 'natural' is actually, in my opinion, a topic that is rarely discussed.DerangedHobo said:

- Skyrim, while a decent game, is massively overrated and only as well received as it is thanks to the considerable effort of the modding community. It's more a pretty-looking sandbox for youtubers than it is a complex RPG.
- 99% of memes, image macros etc. are inherently unfunny, parroted by boring and/or stupid people without an original thought in their heads. If this is the best we can come up with, comedy is dead.

I actually tried to word myself so that these people would be included - so yes. A natural follow-up would be to ask if polygamy flew under this as well, but all I got on that is a faint recollection about something-something Utah and thus no comment. The idea is to put some exclusivity to marriage, but this time without the ol' discrimination.Silvanus said:
I just wanted to mention that I feel you missed the point that he was making with DKR. It was an anti-OWS statement, not anti-1%. The guy touting the "take back your city" message to the proletariat just want to cause chaos for his own benefit/plan. Society fell apart. The vixen anti-hero who started off anti-1% switched sides. The richest guy in town is the true, selfless hero that sacrifices himself and saves everyone from dying even though he could have ran off with the girl and left everyone behind.elvor0 said:
Okay, here we go:
1. I disapprove of the way some parts of the trans community claim that anybody can identify as, say, a woman for any reason. A word has to have some kind of definition or it's useless. "Woman" can't just mean "person who claims to be a woman." I'm not telling you how to decide who's a woman and who isn't, but at least have the courage to stand by your definition and not classify people who don't fit it as women.
2. While I do believe that gay couples can make perfectly fine parents, I'm aware that no side of that issue3 has ever been open to debate. It's pretty much always a case of "I like/dislike gay peope, and now I'll seek out studies that tell me what I want to hear." And while it's theoretically possible that same-sex parents lack something that straight parents provide, the opposite is just as possible.
3. I think it's fine for anybody to use the word "******" as long as you're discussing it as a term.
4. Pretty much all the classic old Disney Saturday morning cartoons like Darkwing Duck, Rescue Ranger,s Ducktales etc. were good, but not as great as people remember them.
5. Most shojo and shonen manga is almost worthless if regarded as an entire story.
6. Considerng that feminism almost always paints men as the cause of discrimination and oppression, it's actually understandable that people get the impression it's about hating men. And I say this as a proud feminist.

My opinion of the human race is not high.
So because this person didn't specifically condemn this particular act in a sentence, they're a disgusting hypocrite? Despite already explicitly stating that such attacks in innocent civilians were unacceptable no matter who carries them out. Do you even read people's responses to you?Reasonable Atheist said:

Fair point. I'm one of those people who use race and species interchangeably, a habit that is incorrect as pointed out by a friend of mine and I should work on dropping.MrFalconfly said:

I think people nowadays are too quick to hold a negative opinion a person or group of people based on what they like or their opinion on a very particular subject, understanding comes to those who speak, question and listen, not by passing judgement.
With understanding comes tolerance and harmony.
Cynicism and pessimism are not cleverness, however trendy that may be, and assuming the worst does not make you a realist, that is the exact definition of a pessimist.

I believe that Pc gaming has always been unreliable and that it remains so to this day. I've been burned before the Steam era and during it.
Despite its pretty big fall I still somewhat respect Naruto. This is more respect for the series it could have been but since what Naruto should be still occasionally shines through I won't write it off just yet.
I don't hold Valve in particularly high esteem.
Democracy is only as good as the time and place it is practiced in. Any outside attempt to artificially breed democracy in places not ready for it is very likely to fail.
I don't get all the praise for Captain America: The Winter soldier. Its certainly not a bad movie but it was kind of forgettable for me due to neither of the villains being very interesting to me.
Populist voters should be disregarded. The solutions they demand are either a joke or self destructive and I feel Politicians just ''lost'' this group. I doubt these voters will ever accept traditional parties again.
I neither like nor dislike Anita Sarkeesian, I nothing Anita and find it weird how no one else seems to.
