There's no need that seems worthwhile. It's not a question of affordability. If called cops would be at my place in 3 min or less. If it took them 10 min I'd be more motivated. I have nothing worth stealing besides the things that everyone has (computer, phone, old tv). Nothing worth dying over & nothing worth killing over.
I'm not saying give me your only gun or your only spare over your family. But if you have 6-10 guns & we need to form a militia, why not contribute to the greater safety?
I don't know if any of my neighbors own guns. It's a quiet residential place but it's pretty densely populated. So I haven't done anything to "garner such spite."
I'm familiar with the "have & not need than need & not have" phrase since seeing True Romance many years ago.
So you'd horde your guns & risk getting overwhelmed in a battle to teach me a lesson for not owning?
It probably helped their relationship he wasn't inclined to sleep with her.
You usually loose at least few inches in old age.
First thing I saw her in was an indie movie Cecil B Demented.
I've said the same of Justified. Yeah S4 was great, loved how it ended. The main story mystery.
S5 was the weakest season but she was good in it.
Spies that matter usually have diplomatic immunity and don't need to mess with the border.
With Sebastian Stan & Jeremy Strong I'm expecting good things.
If anyone is actually buying this narrative they're an idiot. It's one of the most ridiculous spins in recent memory.
Immaculate & Reality were evidence that she can act. But yeah through history there were always bombshells, many forgotten or never known.
Chinatown is the textbook example of separating the art from the artist. It's one of the greatest movies of all time. For this film I can separate the two but realize it's a personal choice for each individual. Praising Chinatown does not mean I support Polanski diddling kids.
Prude?
It's been a long time without an update.
Which?
George Miller's vision has evolved for the modern palate. Sometimes, maybe most of the time, it does not work (ie the last 2 Indiana Jones films). Fury Road worked imo.
I'm not usually a fan of prequels, prefer the story moving forward. This might very well be Miller's last flick (he's 79) so kinda would rather see how it all ends. Does humanity restore itself? Do we die out? I find that more interesting.
The Mad Men scene is on YT. Is Bill Burr's JFK in it for more than one scene? If one scene any idea what part of the movie it's in? I don't want to watch the whole thing.
Crockett took the bait. Perhaps her emotions got the best of her which happens, she's human. This seems to have been building for a while. It made them both look bad where it could've been just mtg making as ass out of herself once again.
+10 but my answer might depend on the crime.
If 10 guilty murderers go free to keep one innocent person out of jail how is that doing the greatest good for society?
If 10 guilty shoplifters go free & 1 innocent person stays out of jail that's a lot more palatable
I guess at the end of the day there is no way an innocent person should have to do time for a crime they did not commit.
I didn't get that it was criticizing prostitution as an institution (maybe I'm an idiot like Goldfadd very mean & unnecessarily called you). It was just a thing that was legal at that time. It was only Little Bill's town ppl weren't allowed to carry as Sheriffs had a lot of authority back then. Stealing a horse was a death sentence. They didn't have time for months of trials & appeals. Civilization, and all it entails, was coming but not fully implemented yet. The laws of the jungle were still in play to a point.
Death for scarring & for stealing a horse seems harsh by today's standards. But you steal a man's horse you're stealing his livelihood or ability to have one so there needed to be strict deterrents. I still think death for scarring even back then was a little OTT but again that was the woman's livelihood, or maybe more accurately the man in charge's livelihood under attack. But he didn't even want that hit carried out.
I love Unforgiven too.
In the Deadwood movie sheriff Bullock had a line "My job ain't to follow the law. My job is to interpret it." I think back then they had considerable powers of discretion. Bullock was no villain in that show he was probably the most honorable character.
