That's an interesting and comforting point. Can't wait to see it regardless!

I anticipate a fatwah, but I must say this trailer nearly exceeds my tolerance level for dwarf slapstick. Hope it's not overdone. Guess I'll find out when I go see it on opening day...

Two things about Apocalypto:

I seem to be the only person I know of who caught the "severed head POV" shot. Nobody I've mentioned it to has known what I was talking about. I need to watch again to confirm, but one of the beheadings takes place in POV, and we see the world spinning around for a few seconds after the axe falls, as if through the eyes of the head bouncing down the steps...very subtly done, I thought. Of course it might be the most obvious thing in the world, I dunno.

And when the baby was born in the water, my son, who was 13 at the time, said, "I didn't think they would go there." A nice bit of understatement, that.

Ridiculous. After 9/11, TV shows including "24" bent over backwards to avoid depicting only Muslims as terrorists, to the extent that they had the courage to depict them at all. Weren't the first Muslims visible on the show, innocent bystanders in a shootout between CTU operatives and non-Muslim terrorists, as well as other innocents depicted as falsely suspected simply due to their culture? How many seasons in before they permitted themselves a Muslim terrorist plotline?

The Sixers -- refugees from the same place as the TN's -- suddenly decided they didn't like life in TN and went and got their own place. Then they started lobbing bombs and sending infiltrators into TN. Jurassic Israel, anyone? When we're expected to identify with the first Sixer suicide bomber, don't say you weren't warned. Sucker punch in waiting...

Just like the earnest "truth-o-meter" things the liberal newspapers trot out at election time to prop up their lying agenda, we need a scorecard for whether libs are joking. Suspending elections? Just a gag, lighten up! Confiscating wealth in order to prop up job creation? Totally serious, man.

(Not that I think it's a noose, but you can bet they'll say anything to avoid having to address the issues raised in the post.)

Wow, thanks for an interesting insight into the situation. So Crowder's manager having broken down the trust level between producer and agent -- is he likely to suffer because of this? Seems like he kind of screwed the pooch, industry-wise. I mean, I too am glad to know about the naked ideological prejudice in hiring, but now this manager is going to have a whistle-blower rep, isn't he? Or at least loose cannon...

Great job, moonbats! May I suggest you try that sh*t at Arlington National Cemetery next?
