Edgar Allen Ho posted:PHUO: The Hobbit movies weren't just awful, they retroactively ruined the good LotR movies. Fellowship alone could make me overlook a mountain of criticisms of the later two movies but now I can't see Orlando Bloom or comic relief Gimli or Sir Ian as Gandalf without seeing PS3 cutscene love triangles and stupid sexy Thorin and GandalfxGaladriel. I'd watch an Attack of the Clones threepeat before sitting through the Hobbit trilogy again LOTR PHUO: Fellowship is the only good LOTR movie, it was more accessible for not having Tom Bombadil show up, and every movie following was more and more Green Screen FMV: The Movie. And in that last way, they are really similar to the prequel trilogy. Directors finally got the power to basically do whatever the gently caress they wanted in post, and there was a period where they were doing it really badly. poo poo like Clone Troopers being entirely CG for no reason, or making Ian McKellen break down as he had to act to a set made almost entirely of green boxes.

Nah, McKellen's greenscreen sadness was the first Hobbit movie - they still used forced perspective and everything for most of LOTR.

Almonds suck rear end. I don't mean that almonds are over used, or that they're a fad food, or that people should eat them less. I mean almonds are a garbage nut that taste bad and aren't enjoyable to eat, ever. The only good kind of almond is a Jordan almond, and those are only good while you're enjoying the Jordan part. Once you get down to the almond, it all goes to poo poo. In a world where things made sense, almonds would not be sold as food. The fact that almonds are even edible should be something that you only know if you watch a documentary about the Great Depression and somebody who lived through it was like, "times got so tough, ma ground acorns to mix in to the flour to make it last longer, and even gave us almonds to eat. Those were equally bad, because both acorns and almonds are garbage nuts"

Once you get down to the almond, it all goes to poo poo. Almonds are only good if they are heavily salted, and I'd rather be eaten a salted cashew 100% of the time. Almonds, walnuts, hazelnuts, and peanuts can gently caress off out of the mixed nuts. Give me 100% cashews with a few brazil nuts for some variety and I'll be happy.

No one says either of those, it’s either phuh or phoh E: Reading a majority european forum for 5 minutes will demolish the idea that Europe is more progressive than the US, unless your idea of progressive is "universal healthcare but you know, for us, not them" Edgar Allen Ho has a new favorite as of 02:19 on Sep 26, 2018 |

In 2018 of course words dont have a gender. Someone might take offence.

It is inherently regressive to assign people or objects gender. Hän means he or her, there is no need for xir or what ever the fix for this fundamental failing of the language is.

I'm always curious when people express this opinion, what do you believe should be done about it? Like, you're already free to not spend your money to support professional sports. Do you want some authority to determine what forms of entertainment people are and aren't allowed to pay for?

I would also like to know how such an organization would determine its standard of defining each thing's value. This seems a smidge authoritarian.
