Coito, can't you go to one of those big film palace things, you see your film and she see hers and then go out to eat, for example?


Just showed the trailer to the kids - they definitely want to see it, no surprises there. Thanks eXc for posting it! :tup:

Of course, but we love each other, so we go places to be together. It's not about the film, it's about doing things with each other. I don't ask my best friend to go to the movies so I can sit in another room. If I did that, I'd go to the movie myself and meet her afterwards.

Plus, like I said, the movie doesn't look like anything special, so I don't care much about not seeing it in the theater. Or, theatre, to our Britlanders.

Probably the demographic it's aimed at.

At least that CGI isn't likely to become an anti-semitic drunk that makes Christian torture porn movies and is abusive to women.

I'm looking forward to it. It looks good.
I'm wild just like a rock, a stone, a tree
And I'm free, just like the wind the breeze that blows
And I flow, just like a brook, a stream, the rain
And I fly, just like a bird up in the sky
And I'll surely die, just like a flower plucked
And dragged away and thrown away
And then one day it turns to clay
It blows away, it finds a ray, it finds its way
And there it lays until the rain and sun
Then I breathe, just like the wind the breeze that blows
And I grow, just like a baby breastfeeding
And it's beautiful, that's life

From the clips, there seems to be quite a negative portrayal of males in that movie.

I also take issue with this tiny girl's ability to pull the draw-weight necessary to fire a medieval bow. That's not a long bow, wouldn't a medieval bow have like a 60 pound draw weight, with long bows having draw weights from like 80 to well over 100)? And, women were like, averaging like 5' tall back then, weren't they?

Although, she was somehow able to flex and rip her own dress off with the force of her musculature....maybe she can caber toss too.

What say the bow-experts?

Are you saying, CES, that this cartoon might be unrealistic? For shame!

I always tell Ayaan she can see another film if she's not interested in the one I'm wanting to see. Doesn't harm our relationship any, just an accommodation to different tastes.

It's Braveheart, with a chick playing Mel Gibson, only I'm betting they don't rip out her entrails at the end of the movie.

To each their own. We just do things together - things are more fun that way, for us.

We do everything we can together, but acknowledge that we don't have to everything together. More freedom that way.

I have 100% freedom. I choose to do as much as possible with her, and She vice versa. I couldn't imagine it any other way.
