Various Rant Threads Merged

Spider-Man and X-Men aren't exactly kiddy movies. They have violence and cussing.

X-Men, cussing yes. Spidey? Uh...because Goblin said pissed? That's the worst I've heard.

But I understand your point, and I want to slap every five-year-old I see wearing a Spidey shirt.

 

[Wilhelm-Scream]

Never heard anyone say anything like that except about Fantastic 4. And since that was crap, I don't care.

You're too kind.

When people say things like, "Spider-Man is for babies!" "X-Men is a kid's movie!"? Even though Spider-Man and X-Men are rated PG-13 and not G or PG? I hate it when people just say that. It makes you feel like a little kid watching, or liking that stuff. It hasn't happened to me for over a year, but it still ticked me off.

Does anyone else get told things like that? What do you tell them?

I agree with you.My mom and sister make fun of me sometimes b/c I like these things but I say screw you!

Remember when parents got pissed off at Burger King because they were marketing batman returns merchandise, which was rated PG-13. Guess that's not a dispute anymore, but that movie had some great sexual innuendo.

 

[Bat Attack]

Does anyone know the names of the various "parents groups" that went after Batman Returns?

 

[Karem-Knight]

I tie em to a shower and chainsaw them.............

SCARFACE style!

 

[psylockolussus]

I don't care. It's my choice.

I use my mutant powers to them.

yea and you know what I tell them? Im a grown man Ill watch whatever I want and if you don't like it you can get ****ed!

(I dont see the problem of grown people watching safe things that bring you joy. But my buddy wanted to have my evaluated because most of the time I watch cartoons.)

 

[Abaddon]

Anything more scandalous?

 

[webhead731]

I'm you all agree with me.

This sucks. Is it our fault we like what we like? I'm just interested in comics and comic games and comic movies. My fault? Heck no.
But yet, people judge us and make fun of us. It's not even a bad thing we like this stuff. We could be interested with things worse than that. Just because I like Marvel Comics doesn't mean I'm weird. I don't go up to everyone and talk about it all the time, I don't have a Hulk action figure I talk to, so I'm not weird. People my age in school do like this stuff, but not as much as I do. Some people can be mature about it, and some are jerks.


Green Goblin said "pissed", and said the word "Hell" a few times. Harry said "pissing" and "Hell". So I wouldn't be letting some 4 year old watch it. Unless they understand that those are bad words and did not repeat them. X-Men had alot of cussing in it, and I'm glad because I don't feel like a little kid when I see it.

So to the people who make fun of people who like comics, comic movies, comic games, etc.....Shut up and think about what's so bad about it.

 

[tzarinna]

I like when my friends kids think they like Spidey more then I do, it is so cute.

 

[Strange]

I really can't tell you just how mad I am at this point. I was driving on the highway, it was a two lane highway, I was in the left lane and was coming up on this stupid dump truck. I read the sign on the back that said stay back 300 feet and not responsible for broken windshields. So I said to myself how can they not be responsible? So anyway he was going kind of slow in the left lane so I move to the right to go around him. I go into the other lane and just as I do several rocks hit my car and one of the cracks my windshield. I was soo mad I wanted to kill that fool. So I call a place to replace my windshield and it will cost $258, which is not that bad but my deductable from in insurance is $250 so it really does me no good. So my question is how can they not be responsible for breaking my windshield? I mean its like someone drives down the road breaks your windshield and then gives you the finger and says that they are not responsible.

 

[jaguarr]

They even warned you with a sign which you read and then promptly disregarded. What else do you want them to do?

jag, who's not saying that there should be capital punishment for stupidity but maybe we could just take the warning labels off of everything and let the problem sort itself out...

 

[black_dust]

Its like a "Wet Suface" sign. If you fall you cant sue because the sign was there warning you

 

[Strange]

So if I put a sign on my car that says I throw rocks out my window periodically and that I'm not responsible for your windshield getting broken then I'm good?

 

[Lemonhead]

...So if I strap a sign to myself that reads, "Stay ten feet away or I will snap your neck. Not responsible for death." And someone disregards it, I can snap their neck and not be responsible?

How can a goat be motherless?

 

[Strange]

How can a goat be motherless?

Exactly!!

 

[Spidey-Bat]

It's like how dry cleaners aren't responsible for lost possessions. It's basically a warning so the owners can be as careless as they want and then say "well, it's not like you weren't warned." Some people don't like to be decent human beings. What else can be said?

 

[Mee]

How can a goat be motherless?

Cloning.

 

[8Ball2/JanG5]

^ Wow, that's actually true.

 

[Warhammer]

Layeth the Smackdown on the damn Truck Driver.

 

[deathshead2]

Well some people are responsible for there own actions. Its your fault you went behind the truck so pay for and stop crying.

What the hell, he was going slow in the fast lane on the highway. What am I supposed to do, drive 50mph on the highway?
