If you're ever wondering why we end up with crap politicians and really lousy countries, look no further than Ric. He's a classic example of "I agree with your right to free speech as long as you don't say something I disagree with".
He's also butt hurt because I didn't like the new Star Wars
We shouldn't tolerate intolerance
That's not an argument, it's just baiting. Please leave this discussion for the adults
And if it is, I'll just not bother posting in this section because I sure as hell am not going to be told what to think.
So it's really about whether you agree with it or not. Ok. Gotcha.
Unfortunately, the powers that be on this forum (actually one moderator in particular, I'd wager) think that wishing someone was dead is illegal - it most certainly is not. It is illegal to incite murder, or say you yourself are going to commit a crime, but not to say you'll be happy if something does happen to a person (in this case, a particular politician). How many posts around the net expressed a wish that Saddam or Bin Laden would die? I bet I can find you a post from this very site. We've descended around these parts into telling people what to think and moderating based on a flimsy understanding of law. If you want that to be the case, at least place it in the rules. The edited piece from above was not illegal in the slightest, and editing it is just stupid.
@vgr, editing and moderating for the sake of boredom is not the job description. If the mods around here want to conjure up some special rules, I'll be fine obeying them. But nothing I wrote above was against rules or illegal.
Apart from the end boss... who literally comes out of nowhere like FF8's.
That would just make you poorly informed and a liar, and based on the number of facts you got explicitly wrong about the film, such a lie would become immediately obvious. I suppose that's a good move if you're trying to lose people's respect.
All you're doing here is pooping in the punch bowl. Is it not enough not to enjoy it, you have to ruin it for everyone else who might have enjoyed it too? Angry, poorly informed complaints won't stop anybody from seeing the film, they won't prevent more from being made. Literally the only thing your ranting could possibly achieve is to make people less happy, and I sincerely hope that's not your intent. Heck, the constant obsession with things you don't like can't possibly make you feel better either. At best, you'll share mutual dislike of something with someone else, but there's no joy in that, only salt.
As I said, you're well within your rights not to see it, or even to watch it and not to like it, but if you're not going to see it, then say you're not going to see it and move on like a normal, decent person instead of maintaining an unnecessary and unproductive hostility.
Well, I disagree, Ric. "Really." People who like atrocious music are akin to those who think random smatterings of paint on walls is talented or "art". They try to come up with some pseudo-intellectual argument also. But the truth is it just sucks and so do they.
But it's my opinion and, well, that's that. If that makes me an ass or arrogant or any other label you wish to use - cool
But the truth is it just sucks and so do they.
It is objectively wrong to think he's a brilliant songwriter because he doesn't even write most of his own music. He gets it all from the studio, and just performs it.
He actually is a remarkably talented singer, and I think it's a shame he wastes it on the music he sings.

I disagree. I think they're actually laughing at people who fall for it as they roll around with their money
But there are thousands of people out there who think Bieber is a genius. What does that tell me? We have an awful lot of silly people about. But I am not one of 'em
I know that no matter what those two release, I won't like it. I consider them intellectually bankrupt (thick as turd) and there's no chance I would ever be optimistic based on a number of factors. The same goes for these cash-in sequels.

I would literally rather they toss the SNES or GBA version into an emulator. This port was trash on mobile, and it's even worse on PC because it's got an ill-fitting mobile UI.
Ditto. Also ugh, those graphics look bad. Not as bad as the FFIV port, but still bad. If the port is pretty solid, I would probably get it, but if it ends up like the mess that was FFV, I'm having none of it.
a. Wasting money on the same product is stupid. And I don't like stupid.
b. In this case, it impacts ME - because by doing this I never get to see NEW content or well designed content (nor do you - as mentioned previously, the MAIN FF game releases are WAY down). I get mindless content, like this disease of a remake, which is already all over the place and being split into parts. This is a direct result of there not being more people like me - People who speak out against what is going on in this piddly ass little games industry. If people wasted their money and it didn't impact on me in any way - it would still annoy me. But I wouldn't feel the need to whinge about it. I'd just weep for humanity, which is what I do quite often. But no. As I said, this current mindset is reinforcing Square's belief (and it's a correct belief) that they can get away with whatever they want, and do whatever they want.
No, they don't. But that's not answering the question. They were hardly released in 1996. It's just a cash grab. I don't speak for people who think buying games again and again and again is a cool thing; I speak for what I see as plain sanity.
Where does this end? Do you have a limit on when you say "enough is enough" or do you just continually buy the same game ported or arranged slightly a ton of times? I fail to see the logic of that. Is there a limit? At what point are people just going to stop feeding a company that is clearly laughing in their faces?
why on Earth would we need the spin offs re-releasing?
While I'm trying to remain neutral on the remake(even though there are parts of the trailer that irked me), not sure how I feel about this statement. I could be reading/understanding it wrong, but it feels like, to me, it's going an episodic route? I doubt they'd sell the game in pieces(or rather I dislike that method), but knowing SE I wouldn't put it past them. But like I said, I could be reading it wrong.
