Does the South Park movie offend Canadians at all?

It never offended me or my friends. We saw that movie multiple times and laughed our tails off. Why?

Just wondering. I haven't watched it since it was in theaters so I really forgot the plot till I happened to catch it today. I damn near pissed myself when the senators where all picking on the Canadian senators for saying "about"-"aboot"!

Not even slightly.

And the tv show has done much worse jokes about Canada and it has a huge following here among its usual Males 12 - 25 proof demo.

Yeah for sure. I'm rooting for an HBO series of the book of Judges!

'Your stature is that of a palm tree and your breaststroke are it's fruit. I told myself "I will climb up and grab hold of its fruit..."' SoS 7:7-8

Yup that would translate well to TV/film & yes I didn't need to look up the verse. Got bored in sermons & stifled giggles at the back of the church a few times when I was younger...

Concerning Pacific Rim... who thought that movie was going to deliver anything OTHER than just huge fucking robots fighting godzilla monsters in beautiful HD. It even had Charlie Day!

I guess this is what I get for not expecting anything from anyone other than Christopher Nolan.

Trouble arrives when the opponents to such a system institute its extreme opposite, where individualism becomes godlike and sacrosanct, and no greater service to any other ideal (including community) is possible. In such a system rapacious greed thrives behind the guise of freedom, and the worst aspects of human nature come to the fore....

In fact, I would love to see David's more bloodthirsty era (while Jerusalem was still the domain of the Jebusites) followed by his son's much more wisdom-filled one, including the building of the famed temple and perhaps even Solomon's ascension/inheritance as King while they stood next to the Ark of the Covenant. Fascinating stuff.

The stoning of adulters would make good screen time
as would the enslaving of your enemies and the taking of Jabesh-gilead, great stuff for all the family

I was saying this to my brother. Noah and Moses are the two big obvious cinematic Old Testament stories that we've all seen and heard plenty of times before. Someone should take on David, or the full story of Jonah, and the like.

Saw EARTH TO ECHO. Basically SUPER 8 minus a budget. See that instead, or better yet just grab a bag of Reese's Pieces and watch E.T., which is still the best version of this story.

OK, I think I got it, but just in case, can you say the whole thing over again? I wasn't really listening.

Winter Soldier. Was good.

It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; because there is not effort without error and shortcomings; but who does actually strive to do the deed; who knows the great enthusiasm, the great devotion, who spends himself in a worthy cause, who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement and who at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly. So that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.

Transformers AoE

waste of my money.
1 was ok, entertaining enough, 2 was poor, 3 was a mess 4 was an experiment in torture. Far too long and just a fucking discombobulated mess. Stanley Tucci and wahlbergs daughters legs were the only good things in this movie.

Saw DAWN OF THE PLANET OF THE APES. Fantastic acting, direction, and effects. The story is kinda minimalist and not very original, but that actually showcases how strong the other aspects of the movie are. Highly recommended.

Yo MCLovin, I saw it too and it was quite possibly one of the greatest things I have ever seen. Koba in the tank?!?! AWESOME!! Koba on hoseback with two machine guns jumping through a wall of flame?! DOUBLE AWESOME!!! Keri Russel?! Felicitous!!! I don't know how they managed to cram so many story arcs into one movie, but hot damn they did it and it was awesome!!!

Theorizing that one could poop within his own lifetime, Doctor Poopet led an elite group of scientists into the desert to develop a top secret project, known as QUANTUM POOP. Pressured to prove his theories or lose funding, Doctor Poopet, prematurely stepped into the Poop Accelerator and vanished. He awoke to find himself in the past, suffering from partial amnesia and facing a mirror image that was not his own. Fortunately, contact with his own bowels was made through brainwave transmissions, with Al the Poop Observer, who appeared in the form of a hologram that only Doctor Poopet could see and hear. Trapped in the past, Doctor Poopet finds himself pooping from life to life, pooping things right, that once went wrong and hoping each time, that his next poop will be the poop home.

This looks good, though oddly the trailer is devoid of singing...for a musical.
