QUOTE (impala454 @ May 15 2007, 03:37 PM)  so... it's not a yes or no answer, but you said "no"....funny, I didn't see "everyone bitching about everything" in the topic's subject line. coming into a topic and going blah blah who cares is pointless. Oh im sorry, i COMPLETELY missed how the subject of this discussion was "ONLY IF YOU DON'T LIKE MOVIES IN SCHOOL CAN YOU COMMENT" I was giving the opposite view point idiot. I explained why and stated that this country is just full of bitching and complaining over nothing (to get people 'fired" none the less). So... i really can't explain it any better, hope the brain muscle works for you this time. OH, and when ISN'T billy being an arrogant ass? -------------------- |

QUOTE (Jessica @ May 15 2007, 03:53 PM) Does anyone's opinion in this thread really matter? Only if someone around here has a child, then I think their opinion would matter on this subject, but since no one does, it doesn't matter  I suppose a teacher's opinion might matter, too, but I don't think we have any of those around here either. Seven more months until my opinion matters! -------------------- Spam? Isn't that something poor people eat?

Im super protective of him. I would go to el paso and beat his teacher to a pulp if she showed him that movie....mostly cuz im on the edge with her as it is. That would just push me over the edge

QUOTE (Renegadepeon @ May 15 2007, 03:50 PM) I have decided you must be completely stupid to purposely ignore the rest of the post which explained the first sentence... I didn't ignore it. When I asked you if you thought it was ok to show rated R films to 8th graders, you never said yes or no, and gave a beat around the bush answer. In your analogy of someone hitting you on the subway, you did say a definitive "no". The fact that it was a no with reservations is irrelevant. |

Yes im ok with political films... ITS A MOVIE. I'll care when its strict political teachings every day. R rated movies were shown in my classes (i think the romeo and juliet modern day movie was R) and it was shown in english class. Should they just any movie be thrown around and completely uncensored... of course not, but its not something thats really that horrible either. And if its in NPR that means people cared enough to make news out of it. I think its not news worthy because its not that big of a deal... Did i just start typing in russian or something? -------------------- |

I actually had a class where it was a movie we were assigned to watch, but I didn't watch it. I told my professor I was morally opposed to it. I have never seen brokeback mountain and I hope I never will.
