You say this as if you don't feel the same way about all the crap that you pimp around here as "transcendent" and "mystical."

At least I have the courage to admit my taske is better than everyone's instead of miring around in the passive aggressive muck.

Choosing not to shit all over everything other people like that I'm not particularly into does not equate to being "passive aggressive". It doesn't even really equate to being passive. I just usually don't feel the need to do it or particularly enjoy it in most cases.

I hardly "pimp" anything around here anymore, and I challenge you to find the last time I claimed anything to be transcendent or mystical, using those words or anything to that effect.

As usual, though, you're presenting a straw man argument, and I don't even know why I bother to respond.

I'll concede your points here, I was sort of hoping for one of our epic brawls, but my heart isn't in it and obviously your's isn't either.

I do shit on a lot of stuff, but a lot of stuff just isn't that praiseworthy and I think that the reason most of us are here are to express opinions about entertainment and culture at large. Mine happens to be mostly negative, especially about anything that is overly meager, yet overly praised....which happens to coincide with nearly 98.6% of what the collective obner mind loves.

If I ever read this as a kid I have no recollection of it. Although I'm now inspired to get Bartholomew and the Oobleck made as quickly as possible.

I had no idea how this would be turned into a film but the additional scenes with the parents and school and so on so far look like they'll actually be really good and not extraneous.

Hopes are high.

Leave bandanas out of indie-schlock. I've had one in my back pocket since I was 14. You never know when you need one; they're always handy and after 2 kids, more so. And, no I do not leave it hanging out for all the world to see my exquisite buttocks. :wink:

I couldn't figure that out. That's a keffiyeh.

I'm cautiously excited about this movie. If I'm being honest with myself, I think the monsters look pretty goofy but there's a darkness to the trailer that gives me hope that I'll be able to get past the costumes.
