Fenrir.Enternius said: Fairy.Spence said: Se7en is great, but I find it's one of those movies that's best the first time you watch it, similar to The Usual Suspects. I mean it's still good the second and third time... but ya... It's the law of movies though. If they ever made a movie that was just as interesting the 30th time as it was the first, I would immediately pick it up.
And I almost never buy movies. The shawshank redemption?

My #6 movie would probably be Twelve Angry Men, which came out in the 1950s. It was legit black and white, and one of the best movies ever.

It looks nice on a list, but most people don't like it as much as they say they do.
They just want to have it on their list because they want to be representing something about themselves by liking certain movies.
lol.
not saying you are definitely fit into that category, but that most that do say they like the movie do.
edit:
notice Sect said "theme" lol.
i liked 12 angry men more though lol.

Unfortunately, I'm not one of those people that goes "omg cool flashy effects Avatar was the best movie ever James Cameron spent all of his money on it so it HAS to be good". I like movies to have some sort of meaning, which I guess is why I don't really like Pulp Fiction.

But I've read the book and like the book better.
Read the book lol.
Sure we can disagree.
But don't act like it carries any more meaning just because of the moral obligation in contrast to an antimoral obligation that is displayed.
edit:
whoa.
nvm.
i thought you said fight club lol.
It's more of a bore than trying to watch all of the Godfather series in one sitting.

I didn't like Schindlers list. It feels kinda hipsterish, I think it's just put on top movie lists to try and imply deepness.
But then I don't like the godfather movies either.

It's boring as hell at some point.
The Godfather is one of my favorites lol.
But I wouldn't be able to watch it again for a longggggg time.
Shiva.Flionheart said: I didn't like Schindlers list. It feels kinda hipsterish, I think it's just put on top movie lists to try and imply deepness.
But then I don't like the godfather movies either. yup. I'll get a link alluding to that lol Quote: A study conducted in 1999 by Read, Loewenstein and Kalyanaraman had people pick three movies out of a selection of 24. Some were lowbrow like “Sleepless in Seattle” or “Mrs. Doubtfire.” Some were highbrow like “Schindler’s List” or “The Piano.” In other words, it was a choice between movies which promised to be fun and forgettable or would be memorable but require more effort to absorb.
After picking, the subjects had to watch one movie right away. They then had to watch another in two days and a third two days after that.
Most people picked Schindler’s List as one of their three. They knew it was a great movie because all their friends said it was. All the reviews were glowing, and it earned dozens of the highest awards. Most didn’t, however, choose to watch it on the first day.
Instead, people tended to pick lowbrow movies on the first day. Only 44 percent went for the heavier stuff first. The majority tended to pick comedies like “The Mask” or action flicks like “Speed” when they knew they had to watch it forthwith.
Planning ahead, people picked highbrow movies 63 percent of the time for their second movie and 71 percent of the time for their third.
When they ran the experiment again but told subjects they had to watch all three selections back-to-back, “Schindler’s List” was 13 times less likely to be chosen at all.

That doesn't surprise me lol. I think the Shawshank redemption is another movie like that too, though I did enjoy it when I watched it a while back.

Schindler's List? Once. It was good. I get it. Never again (probably).

Since we all can't be on the same linkshell in game, this can be our cross server linkshell thread.
Like most linkshells, it can be pretty dead at times. Other times it's full of intense conversations about either rl, gear, goals, pokemon or anything else you want to contribute.
We can cover any sort of topic at all, within reason of the forum rules. No real main topic, just a bunch of FFXIAH friends/people coming on and discussing random things.

Update: Sorry Eternaltriumph, too much has changed D: (Page 698)
Eternaltriumph said: Yeah Chuu. Bringing you up to speed, Ludoggy is the LS pedophile. I'm the fountain of random and useless knowledge that makes you go "Hrm" with the occasional side of "holy shit he said what?"
Kungfu is the LS nutjob, spouting super random things that are usually sexist, until Savvy or Alyria comes into the room. Then he's a classic case of sexual harrassment. Rumaha is also true to the second part; we're wondering about his sexuality though.
Daj is Ludoggy's gay lover. Not much else is known about this Asuran. Tairo is kinda new, but since is a female and Alyria's lesbian lover, she fit right in real quick.
Celene(F) and Rowland(M) are more of the shyer members, but often say things that are witty, have a good pun and sometimes cause three page discussions. Celene hates when people hit on her. It doesn't stop them from trying.
Krizz is just social and likes to kill time here during work Tbest is about the same, except tends to be a douche to guys and affectionate toward girls.
Alyria is the most social female, gets groped a lot without provoking it by others, and Tairo ends up stabbing people for it. Cai is just a barrel of lols, I might be gay for him. If I wasn't straight.
Not sure about Citag, s/he's new. Kiriyu is just an in-out kinda person. Says one thing every three days that every guy makes a big fuss over. Ludoggy gets really defensive since she's asian and underage (might be 18 now).
Artem is the wayward soul that makes you ponder the meaning of life by constantly reminding us life can suck. But he deals, and so do we. About the same for Savannah, except people are more "AWH!" to her because of a vagina involved.
Dasva is the ex military man (as is Krizz but this doesn't apply to him) who hates the world and plots a way to destroy most of it.
Number2 is kinda like a mix between Cai and I; never bashes, likes to laugh and has odd avatars. His current suits a lot of the convos this LS gets into. Barti is most well known for his moustache. He gives mousatche rides for a fee. I'm missing a few people but whatever. CARRY ON!
Luelle Smells.
