Top 5 Movie

[VanHelsingh]

Nevermind WLS. I won't talk to you 'no more'.

The fact that you think some animated films cannot be categorised as art goes some way to explain your own slanted take on the medium.

I personally think you're trying too hard to come off as 'avant-garde' but you're completely missing the beauty to be found across the whole spectrum of film. The fact that it doesn't conform to your tastes is not a slight on its achievement and quality, but more a reflection on your prejudices and what you deem to be "worthy".

But like I said, nevermind. If you honestly didn't know what I was referring to earlier in terms of Persepolis, you could've just said "Never heard of it to be honest." Instead you go on to belittle something that is widely accepted as something so far removed from what you're assuming it is, you just make yourself appear uninformed. If you'd seen the film and then decided to trash it then fair enough but you aren't even aware of what I was referring to. You know, it is okay not to know something on the odd occasion.

Then you insult me by suggesting any discussion of animation is the equivalent of talking to a child about Nicklelodeon cartoons.

I'm really rather surprised that someone who posseses the vast amount of knowledge you clearly do, can be so lacking in nuance and sensitivity when it comes to appraising something based on its merits, and not some hugely misplaced, pre-conceived notions that are so wide of the mark they are entirely laughable.

Here's one rant that is truly over. Seriously disappointed, dude.

thought persepolis was a great film really eye opening.

The raid is a great film too just start to finish action packed!

Taken 2 = horrendous built on the original taken they changed maybe a couple of pages of dialogue not worth the admission price.

Boy with the striped pyjamas decent film amazing book!

Ha, ha, no worries. It's great to be in touch with your inner child... as long as you're not possessed by the bhoot of a young child... that's a whole different kettle of fish! :biggrin2:

this topic has gone on too long, over 15 pages on a topic that has nothing to do with sikhi, there are many topics i've noticed on here where people are asking geniune good questions about how to improve their jeevan etc and there are hunderds of views and maybe 1 reply and in some cases none and yet a thread like this gets so much attention, the bottom line is we are wasting our time by watching tv, we will happily sit and watch a three hour film like scarface no problem, but when the times come to do some path or simeran we arent prepared to do it for three hours, tv is a massive waste of time, count up the hours you watch tv in a day and see how much it comes to, the average person watches 4 5 hours a day if not more, and the time wasted watching tv can be spent doing simeran or listening to katha. i dont mean to have a go beceasue I am not one to talk myself I used to watch hours of tv before but now I dont watch any but still on some occasions watch the footie when liverpool are playing. the below video is very good

Bhul chuk maaf karni

[VanHelsingh]

Good point, NewSingh. Personally speaking I gave up TV a long time ago. Whilst I'm not a film junkie (as much as I use to anyway), I still manage to squeeze in about 5 or 6 movies a year at the tail end of the year on DVD. For me the concepts behind the movies (a decent movie of course) are more interesting than the films themselves, lol.
