Re: Politics
This is a disappointing thread – I get that political discussion has been overruled. Films have had a profound outcome on politics and politics have had a strong influence on some of the greatest films.
It’s too bad that this won’t be a forum where we could discuss political issues that effect our avocation in an intelligent, meaningful way.
That’s OK the sands warm…

Re: Politics
I think the rule is really "don't make threads specifically talking about politics" than avoiding talking about politics altogether. If a film is about the Rwandan genocide for example, you will possibly talk about some of the politics behind it but you don't start something with the politics.
I believe that's where the line is really drawn. This will accomplish the avoidance of those hot button issues but also still keep things fairly laid back...

Oh - damn.
OK then, I'll reiterate. I'll try not to deliberately piss anybody off but Terry. He I will irritate on purpose, he's masochistic in that sort of way...
