No idea what that means. Is he another who you think is a troll account?

I agree he's a decent lad. I like him a lot. Sometimes his trolling is annoying but you can tell he is a good guy. Same goes for Temp and Fati. They could all rein in the trolling (Temp has since coming back) but in general I think their hearts are in the right place, especially Fati who is a great guy.

Fati is a very great guy

 

[Temptation]

I'm a bad guy but Fati and Rassy are absolute gems and forum royalty. Wanna make that very clear.

@Temptation

This is it in case you don't know anything about it. Gonna go to the 1.10 pm showing (though that really starts at about 1.40 pm post trailers). It's only £5 admission on a Monday too with my Insider card.

If you knew about SRA and mk hollywood you would know better than to watch their programming.

ok

I am well aware but still watch. I don't take it that seriously.

you don't understand the irony of it only being "entertainment" for you and the masses, because the real thing is entertainment for those in the network, hence programming

Lol it's just a film, I don't take it literally or let it plant ideas in my subconscious.

Stop being melodramatic. Maybe that happens to others but not me - I don't even pay attention to celebrity culture and these days avoid politics.

and your psychotic interaction with jamdav shows otherwise, this isn't to say I blame you or anyone for falling for programming since it's comprehensive in media

ok fair enough if you think that, I don't wanna argue.

I don't think that was because of movies or anything though. That's probably just me being genetically unstable.

Everything has biological effect. Being conditioned to enjoy watching real torture or hollywood depiction of it creates disassociation, fear, anger, and the continuation of psychosis that enjoys it.

You might well be right.

Isn't it possible that I just enjoyed the film, though? I didn't come out of it feeling angry or bloodthirsty or anything. But like you imply, the whole idea is you don't consciously realise what it is doing.

But I do love films. But not just Hollywood ones - I watch a lot of past films and films from other countries too.

Fictional hollywood scenes (ironically scripted/inspired directly from reality in many instances) of war, torture, murder, rape labeled as "art" and freedom of expression.

No free people would ever enjoy that "art."

I wouldn't call it 'enjoyment'. I think it's the wrong word.

Like when you watch the Pianist, or Schindler's List, or Saving Private Ryan, you know they are dramatised and take artistic license. However, you don't 'enjoy' the film. You feel a sense of sadness because you know they are (very loosely) depicting a true event that happened, in this case WWII. It isn't enjoying war, murder, rape etc. Anyone who 'enjoys' that imagery is a sociopath. It's more a case of being horrified, sickened etc. from a safe vantage point i.e. behind the screen.

But I guess you could say why would a person want to be fed images that make them feel horrified or appalled? That's another question and likely backs up your point.

Like one of my favourite films is A Clockwork Orange. I like the theme of free will vs constraint. But you will probably say I must be unwell mentally to like such a controversial film.

It's an interesting debate.
