So... are you intimating that half the fan base are indeed closet misogynists? That's probably not a thing to be proud of.


Responding like a dumb ass isn't something to be proud of either.


Why don’t you respond to him properly? To be frank you sound like one of the closet misogynists - perhaps you’re in denial, but it comes through in your responses... Sort it out pal.


I'm responding appropriately to idiots. Welcome to the list.

Solium, please stop with the personal insults/name-calling. It’s against forum policy and I don’t want to continue receiving reports on this thread. Thank you.

Personal insults and name calling were lobbied my way first with the closet misogynist comment. I hope you address them as well.

As I said in another thread (bolding and italics added):

"There's hate all right, but it's coming from one side; a side that refuses to listen to anybody with an opinion that is not theirs, that dismisses any facts that are antithetical to their own, that dumps critical thinking for buzz terms and "wins" against those who they toss around idiot labels like "homophobe", "racist", "sexist", "bigot", etc. And that uses regressive thinking wherein they reduce people to their sex, to their skin color, to their age, etc.

This is worse than anything any member has been banned for from this board and it's becoming more pervasive and ruining what was a good place. Every day it's like coming here and taking a big fat shit on the board. And it's disgusting. It'd take that crazy Canadian pony guy over this any day.

Like political discussion, this needs to be banned from FSM.
"



This shit is becoming more frequent and it's dividing the forum and damaging the community.

In addition to being in favor of "older" action film stars, I'm also for there being no age limit for entry into the armed forces.

I'm IN FAVOR of an age limit to run for President. smile

Some great examples of older actors shining in movies are Indy's dad in Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, and The Fugitive. There isn't any reason why this can't apply to the new Terminator movie. In fact, a Terminator film could be a great vehicle, as the terminators can't be physically bested by any human, and defeating them requires the right weapons and outsmarting them. Something a 60+ year old person is as capable of doing as a 20 something. There isn't any reason Linda Hamilton can't be a complete badass in this movie, especially considering Terminator 2 already established her as a complete badass.

Michael, your comments make a lot of sense. I don't expect to see older actors "leaping tall buildings" or running 4 minute miles. However, I would assume Hamilton can heft a bazooka or other weapons, drive a getaway truck at very fast speeds, and outsmart the enemy.

joan my friend, you have asked me why I no longer post here. It isn't to earn a "Where is edwzoomom?" thread. It's because of what appears in this thread....the same ones with the same deep seeded issues that permeate every single comment. Not everything evolves.

EDW, I totally understand, but I miss you here at FSM, and I know Bill Carson has asked about your absence many times. You are missed by us and others, so I hope someday you will return and post more often. Of course, that is your choice.

Its true i have asked.
I dont know about "many times". Once a week might be more accurate. Well...most weeks. But then like last week, when there wasn't the time, but a lot of weeks at least ive asked. A plethora of weeks maybe? wink

In life, if you like doing something...why on earth ever let someone stop you enjoying it? Use ignore button and keep posting. Simples.

It was probably more like daily Carson. Don't get your hopes up btw.

I don't let people stop me from doing something I enjoy. Key word is enjoy. I wasn't enjoying it anymore.

I enjoy harassing you and haven't stopped, no matter how many times joan has asked me to leave you alone.

No way. I keep telling EDW to harass you more often.

Solium, I never personally insulted or called you any names. All I did was point out what seemed like an odd comment to what the director initially stated.

Miller said "If you’re a closet misogynist, she’ll scare the f**k out of you, because she’s tough and strong but very feminine".

Then you replied "And I love how Hollywood thinks it's okay to chastise, name call and insult half your fan-base before the film is even released."

Thus, I'm just trying to follow the logic of your reply, which seems to intimate that half the fan-base are closet mysogynists who were insulted. What else did you mean?

That's a leap that would leave Columbo, Matlock, Fletcher and even Mrs. Columbo scratching their heads.

Not taking sides here..

I think Sol meant by " half your fan base"

He was simply referring to male film goers. No adjective BEFORE male.

Peace.

You are so kind joan. I doubt the misses are very high but thank you. I do come around to watch you bug Carson.

I thought stormtroopers were just the grunts/soldiers in the Empire.
I always thought the sith were the special sneaky dark side of it.
So why would there be a Sith Trooper that just looks like a stormtrooper who supports Liverpool?
Still, I'm deffo buying one to sit on my desk in work to annoy any Evertonians and cos it's a cool koppite stormtrooper smile

Yet you felt compelled enough to come back and post garbage like this. Good riddance.
