That sucks, if they can show a movie as disturbing as Hostel, they can show a gay romance.

Okay then. I'm so tired of people saying that mexicans and black peoples and asians mattered. I wish they would take down movies about them, because they're worthless and don't matter at all.




And scots.

It's SHITE being Scottish! We're the lowest of the low. The scum of the fucking Earth! The most wretched miserable servile pathetic trash that was ever shat into civilization. Some people hate the English. I don't. They're just wankers. We, on the other hand, are colonized by wankers. Can't even find a decent culture to get colonized by. We're ruled by effete assholes. It's a shite state of affairs to be in, and all the fresh air in the world won't make any fucking difference!

Choose Life. Choose a job. Choose a career. Choose a family. Choose a fucking big television, choose washing machines, cars, compact disc players and electrical tin openers. Choose good health, low cholesterol, and dental insurance. Choose fixed interest mortgage repayments. Choose a starter home. Choose your friends. Choose leisurewear and matching luggage. Choose a three-piece suite on hire purchase in a range of fucking fabrics. Choose DIY and wondering who the fuck you are on a Sunday morning. Choose sitting on that couch watching mind-numbing, spirit-crushing game shows, stuffing fucking junk food into your mouth. Choose rotting away at the end of it all, pishing your last in a miserable home, nothing more than an embarrassment to the selfish, fucked up brats you spawned to replace yourself. Choose your future. Choose life...

The reason for the theatre pulling this show is obvious. It's in Salt Lake City! Everyone there is Mormon, and of course this movie is probably widely shunned there since they are very conservative. What I don't understand is that they condone violence, but are touchy when it comes to sex??

This isn't the first time this kinda thing has happened, although im sure there were many more sexualy provacative movies shown there before.

It is their decision, and this happened before with the last temptation of christ.

it will happen again with the da vinci code

who cares it's self plublicity made for the movie to drive up hype about it.

and mnrx weren't you just bitching at a bunch of college aged members a couple days ago about drinking and drugs at shuch?

now who's close minded?

I have to agree. Why don't some of you grow a fucking penis and quit bitching about something being offensive to gays, mexicans, or whatever. I've always said that people are hill billies to gay/race bash before that whole homosexual thread started (which was like a trashy talk show if you think about it) but this is getting ridiculous...

Veek

09-01-2006 10:30:32

I think it's pretty obvious that even some straight people in here do find it offesive to bash a sexual prefrence, race, or religion. I mean, everyone should find it offensive. But usually the people who are saying to get over it, are the people who want to cover up their tracks.

bballp6699

09-01-2006 10:33:04

It is offensive, but do you run around in public and yell at every person that doesn't approve of your "ways" and call them ignorant? It's just a way or life, live your life the way you want and let others live theirs.

Veek

09-01-2006 10:36:47

No, I don't. Believe it or not, people here aren't as closed-minded. But when I'm at a board and there are people from every state, someone is bound to leave a stupid comment.

Not only that, this is a message board. People post their opinions and others approve or they don't. I choose to respond to them because I want to. If anyone has a problem with that, they can download the Firefox plug-in and block my posts. ;)

Alright, first of all, Mormons are not close-minded. Quite the opposite, actually. Secondly, I think doing drugs and getting drunk is the worst thing a person could do, but Im not stopping people from doing it...and thirdly, F.T.W. and all of you!

tylerc

09-01-2006 16:25:35

Have you ever been drunk or done drugs?

No. Don't knock something until you try it. You could say "I don't want to myself, but I don't care if you do".

Are you suggesting that drinking/doing drugs is worse than murder or rape?

Ond town didn't play a movie with gays in it...so what's the big deal? u honestly think that everyone u ever meet will agree with you on everything? no. You guys are gonna go round in circles and continue to say the same things over and over again. (how much of this stuff was said in the homosexuallity/christianity threads?)
