And then your legs just feel all smooth, like actual paper... though honestly, that's just for other people's sake. I mean, having hairy hips is totally fine too!

What are you even laughing at? You really think those soft, natural blondes can't be tough-as-nails revolutionaries when they have to be?

Well, life’s got a funny way of throwing you curveballs! πŸ™„ 😁

Well, life’s got a funny way of throwing a wrench in your plans. πŸ™„ 😁

Look, if you've never even picked up a razor to shave your legs, you're gonna have a hell of a time finding a husband.πŸ‘

Nope. We definitely didn't break up over whether or not I shave my legs.😁

Btw, I'm a married woman, and at first glance, I totally seem like just another casual poster here.😳 😁 πŸ˜‰

btw, just so we’re clear, I’m a married womanβ€”I know I look like some flighty amateur on this forum, but bear with me.😳 😁 πŸ˜‰

these right-wingers are absolutely brain-dead... I mean, they use the exact same tired tropesβ€”recycled a thousand times overβ€”and they are just incredibly crude (seriously, gross 😲 πŸ™„
they cling to these rigid dogmas they pretend are virtues, or whatever, and they’re just loud and obnoxious... all in all, >> ugh πŸ™„

where are the actual intellectuals? The well-read, open-minded guysβ€”those cosmopolitan souls who actually exist outside of this narrow-minded nonsense... WHERE ARE THEY???

Now that he’s part of the high-society jet set and his old neighborhood buddies are just washed-up losers hanging out in dive bars in Queens, suddenly the narrative changes. 😁 😁 😁

By the way, go ahead and claim I look like a man and try to come find me, you absolute caveman. You wouldn't know a woman's leg if it hit you in the face, let alone anything else. πŸ™„ πŸ₯³

You wouldn't know anything if Bill were wearing the pants. 😁

Thanks, man.
I really like that phraseβ€”"fully available."
I didn't realize you could frame it that way.

Hey Carl Hill6, what neighborhood are you living in? Where on earth does such amazing talent grow? πŸ™„ 😁

From the middle of nowhere.
Such a little beauty.
Even here in America, women are considered "available."
They just phrase it a bit differently.

Why haven't you developed even a shred of civilization over in Europe? Honestly. 😳 πŸ˜‰

I’ll conquer Europe.. 😁

Besides.. The place where I work is basically the Wild West, not the European Union.. 😳 😁

What am I thinking about.

PS just finished watching Charlie and the Chocolate Factory... Honestly, it’s bizarre, totally adorable, and just genius. πŸ‘ πŸ‘ πŸ‘ Just felt like sharing that little thought with my patients over at the local VA hospital... If you're currently staying at the VA, then Las Vegas and Charlie and the Chocolate Factory are basically your whole world right now.

πŸ‘ What an absolute disaster of a movie!

I’ve already caught this one in theaters three times now, and honestly? I don't regret a single second of it. In fact, I’m already planning to head back for a fourth viewing!

Sylvester Stallone in the performance of a lifetime! Honestly, I don't think any of his previous roles even come close to this oneβ€”it’s truly in a league of its own.

Well, that was an absolute disaster!

Well, that is just absolutely devastating!

It just goes to show that when you see women captured in classic black and white, they possess a certain magnetic intensity that seems twice as captivating as anything you’d find in full color. πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚

Maria Thompson2 said:πŸ‘ WHAT A FREAKING MOVIE!

Man, I’ve already sat through this thing three timesβ€”all in theaters! And honestly? No regrets at all, I’m totally down to go a fourth time if they play it!

Sylvester Stallone is absolutely killing it here! Seriously, I don't think any other role has ever suited him quite like this one.

Just mind-blowing!

Pure insanity!

Plus, it just goes to show that women shot in black and white look twice as hot as they do in color... πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚

You should check out Willy Wonka too. It’s a completely different flavor of weird, but just as brilliant.

I've got a condition... I've gotta know... Pay close attention to the avatar.

Anyway, word on the street is the DVD release is gonna be way longerβ€”apparently they filmed basically every single panel from the comics (which are like 150 pages long!), but they had to trim a massive chunk for the theatrical cut. They’re even planning to adapt the rest of the series!

I suppose that’s why the plot felt a little bit muddled at times. πŸ€”

P.S.
The film is visually stunning, honestly. (Though I wonder if they really needed Quentin. You could argue that the excessive violence is his signature touch.)

amateur hack said:And I guess that's why the plot felt a little all over the place for us. πŸ€”

Honestly, if you didn't grow up reading the comics, the whole thing is a total whirlwind! The pacing is super fast because it’s trying to mimic the comic book vibeβ€”actually, it moves even quicker than the books since they chopped out so many scenes. But hey, the plot isn't really the main event here; the story itself is kind of a mess, let's be real. The whole point is just to get hypnotized by the visualsβ€”like watching a living, breathing comic strip jump off the page!
amateur hack said:P.S.
The movie is visually stunning, for sure. (Though they could've done it without Quentin Tarantino. Honestly, I feel like that over-the-top brutality might actually be his fault.)

Look, Quentin Tarantino just edited that one scene in the car with the guy talking about the wood. The original comic is violent and dark, and while the movie follows it, the violence is so stylized that it doesn't feel quite as gross. I really don't get why everyone insists on pinning all violence on him! His movies aren't even that much more intense than your average Hollywood action flickβ€”it's just that the violence hits you more directly. I mean, look at Oliver Stone (who's a pretty peace-loving guy, in my opinion)β€”he made Natural Born Killers, which is like, a hundred times more violent than anything Quentin has ever done combined!

Quentin Tarantino
Mickey Mouse said:It’s honestly pretty tough to follow the plot if you didn't grow up reading comic books. Don't you think it helps to have that background?

I’ve been reading comics for a long time, and honestly? I still am. I guess you could say I'm a bit of a fanatic.

To be honest, I hadn't even heard of that specific comic strip until recently, let alone actually sat down to read it. Have you ever stumbled upon something like that?

Mickey Mouse said:The pacing is incredibly fast since it follows the rhythm of the comic book.

That sounds about right to me.

Got it. I'm ready to go. Just send over the text you need me to work on!

It’s probably best to just let the movie speak for itself. 😁
Quentin Tarantino
Mickey Mouse said:The movie stays true to the comic book roots, but the violence is so highly stylized that it doesn't actually feel gruesome. Honestly, I don’t quite get why people are so obsessed with linking Quentin Tarantino solely to violence. Are his films really that much more violent than your average Hollywood action flick? Isn't it true that violence just hits a bit harder? It’s more direct, isn't it?Think about itβ€”if you take a director like Oliver Stone and look at his work on *Natural Born Killers*, isn't it easily a hundred times more intense than anything Quentin Tarantino has ever put out?

Violence just has a more direct impact, doesn't it?

That’s probably why, isn't it?
