What is really sad is they have no idea of how silly they look to everybody who is not a Cameron fanboy, and even a lot of the more rational Cameron fans think they are silly. Saying Trump wants to be a dictator shows you have zero grasp on rationality here lubbadubbadubdab. Cameron is objectively the greatest of all time. There is no blindness here. Only brute fact. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well Infinity War and I2 are already better then BP. So Battle could be better as well. I doubt they will choose them over BP for PC reasons though. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many people voted for him just because they couldn't stand a woman being president. Thats bollocks. I always refer people to this video for the most cleary thought set of reasoning. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomCruiseTop Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 @baumer could you clean up @dudalb's madman political rants please? This is the fanboy thread, not politics or the place where LabDab gets to shreek like an insane liberal who drank the koolaid. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That could even be the vast majority of the voters at the presidential. I fully get the you cannot infer much about someone voting Trump at the presidential, party line, not liking him but hating is competition, etc... In the primaries too, voting for him require different explanation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not entirely sure what you mean with the Newton analogy, so I'll only address the Jim part with a quote from the man himself... "Luck is not a factor." 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Movies traveled and played really well in the silent era in all markets vs now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Luck is not a factor." Isaac Newton gets hit in the head with an apple and is the first one to formulate derivation for existing gravity. Sci-fi movies that please/nourish masses directed by James Cameron(Spielberg)? I think James Cameron has a god-like following like Schwarzenegger and Leonardo DiCaprio. Anything they touch or do becomes symbolized despite talent or anything else. I think Christopher Nolan would be a good case for strong objective movie director. His experiment with Dunkirk seemed effective in bringing WWII to life. The effect in Nolan pictures is much stronger and changing than anywhere else IMO.

About 40-45% of Americans voted for him. Are all of them racist? A large part? Some small minority that gets lots of media coverage and not associated with the rest? At least 90% of them are discriminatory even If they do not admit it or dont know it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
