Passion 2: Return & Revenge

You stated in your opening post: poker isn't a sport.

What are you guys... 😁
The word is he’s heading back to football, but not as a player—more like taking on some kind of role at Real Madrid.

Didn't Carpenter direct The Invisible Man (or was it Chevy Chase?)

It's a disaster...They essentially coasted into second place in their group..It was like squeezing through the eye of a needle...

Exactly. With this lineup, they should have cruised straight to first place in the group.

Nicholas Perez33 said:that's just not true
he didn't have anything good 😬

What do you mean?
He definitely did. I just can't recall the specifics right now.

It’s just like how 1992 Reservoir Dogs didn't get a nomination, yet it's easily ten times better than...
Unforgiven

🤣 🤣
Honestly, a person can say just about anything and still walk away unscathed.

Zak would eat Chuck alive.

The Film is a total failure in terms of the script. How did the captain of the first Icarus lose his mind? What actually happened to that initial crew? To quote Zachary Thompson2: "I get the feeling that after watching the first hour, they realized the story was going nowhere, so they just decided to throw an 'eighth passenger' onto the ship to slaughter the rest of the crew. How original."

Jason Chavez32 said:You guys clearly don't get it. Attacking Morales is an attack on the entire history of dance music culture itself. 👎

Morales is garbage. 😬

The Canadians are going to crush us.
(Being pessimistic during previous games actually paid off. 😁 )

Steven Green2 said:It bugs me how they always seem to set things up so that Americans and Canadians meet in the final (assuming they lead their groups). Why can't they just face off in the semifinals for once?! 🙄
It’s the same deal with the domestic cup, where they favor teams like the South and Youth. Honestly, it rarely happens that they clash in a semifinal, but it's incredibly rare... They could at least shake things up to make it more interesting and give other teams a shot at reaching the final. 🙂

It's just like tennis, where they rig it so Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal don't meet until the final.
It makes zero sense. 🤣

Which movie takes the crown: The Godfather or any Star Wars film? What’s the actual verdict here?

nimblemarlin17 said:Listen, you absolute idiot, he’s part of it too. Honestly, The Phantom Menace is easily one of the top three films in the Star Wars franchise, maybe even one of the top two.

Tim Howard belongs in the top 100 players globally. He might even be in the top 10. 🤣

Sorry, nimblemarlin17, but you've lost it.
Let me put your logic into perspective: imagine someone looking you dead in the eye and saying, "Tim Howard is going to be a world-class soccer player." 🤣

Jerry Martin19 said:I'll pretend I didn't see this nonsense, especially regarding Christopher Lee...

☕

Look, I've been a fan of Christopher Lee since his days playing Dracula, so... Honestly, maybe he was off his game too. 🤣

Look, it’s tough for any Star Wars fan to admit the newer films are bad. I’m a fan myself—I caught all three of those in theaters during their premieres (plus several more times)—but they just aren't good. Like I said before: the dialogue is clunky, the acting is subpar, and while the high-level concept works, the actual execution is full of holes. It is what it is.

The acting in Episodes I, II, and III is just desperate. The only exceptions are Liam Neeson, Christopher Lee, and Yoda 😁. As for everyone else, they’re either giving poor performances (Hayden) or seem completely checked out (McGregor, Jackson).
The dialogue in Episodes I, II, and III is beyond abysmal. The motivation behind Anakin turning to the dark side and murdering kids? When I saw it in the theater, I literally said, "Don't screw with me." Out loud. In a movie theater. I almost got kicked out. 😁
What keeps those three episodes afloat is the Star Wars name, the special effects, and pure nostalgia for the original films. It could have been much better—it really could. We miss Harrison. And we miss Darth Vader.

Start with Episodes IV, V, and VI.
Skip 1, 2, and 3 entirely.

What’s the first absolute disaster of a film you ever saw?

Or this: "All the files are in this box," they claim, then toss the "box"—which is actually the PC—onto the floor. Once the components shatter, they just look disappointed and mutter, "Well, there are no files in here." 🤣
