Poor Willem DaFoe. First "Body of Evidence," now this.

He seems drawn to roles which pose clear and present danger to his junk.

And anyway, since you brought it up: what in the world does MTV have to do with judging music videos anyway? That makes as much sense as a gay dude judging a womens' beauty contest.

Stick to what you know, MTV. Staged reality shows, blipverts, and regular fluid changes on Kurt Loder's formaldehyde tank.

"The stunt reveals his modus operandi. He instinctively provokes conflict, then rails against those angered by his comportment."

That's an awful lot of words to describe what Usenet classified two decades ago as a "troll."

Related phrase: "plonk."

Thank you for your valiant effort at contributing to the proposed flamewar, but that part about it requiring some sort of effort to be cooler than trekkies kinda blew it from a plausibility standpoint. ;)

"This film asks the classic Star Trek questions: Who are we? Why are we here? Is this all that there is?"

Actually those are the classic Babylon 5 questions. You know, that vastly superior series that DS9 ripped off, badly.

/flamebait :D

Those who glorify the 60s do so because they generally can't remember them. :)

"Hey hon, come watch this movie with me."

"It's not that Seven Samurai thing again, is it?"

"Nah, this is a western. Yul Brynner, Steve McQueen, Chuck Bronson. You'll LOVE it."

"Doesn't Henley have a right to protect his creation?"

He's not protecting his creation, he's trying to use copyright law improperly to bludgeon someone whose politics differ from his own. Go look up parody and fair use.

Really, in this day and age, someone doesn't know this? Really?

Hard to believe this is the same guy who sang "Dirty Laundry."
