Thats cause you old people keep dying on us.... so don't hold it against us, its your fault, now go eat tapioca pudding or something.
Kidding, but just so you know, just because your older, doesn't make your opinion true. If you say something is good, its your opinion its not fact, hell i could say that The Toxic Avenger was the best horror movie ever (Although its a favorite of mine) Doesn't mean that it is. And im only saying this because from what i got from you and that other guys conversation to me means that your saying that younger people don't know whats good. If thats not what your saying then ignore the post. But if it is then screw off because im sick of old people telling me that my opinion doesn't matter, and im sick of them acting like they are always right.
yeah anyways.... im gonna go sulk about Bruces defeat, oh yeah.... and whoever thought that "Oh my votes not gonna count, we allready know who's gonna win so I don't really care."*COUGH*bloodrayne*COUGH* YOU ARE AN IDIOT, THATS HOW WE GOT BUSH AS A PRESIDENT.

But if it is then screw off because im sick of old people telling me that my opinion doesn't matter, and im sick of them acting like they are always right. No, I'm pretty sure that means that people are USUALLY more familiar with the movies, actors and actresses of their OWN generations...And many younger people haven't seen or even heard of a lot of the movies that the older actors have been in, so it's natural to go with what you know...Everyone IS entitled to their own opinion (no one has said otherwise), but it's kinda difficult to FORM an opinion about something you're not familiar with
and whoever thought that "Oh my votes not gonna count, we allready know who's gonna win so I don't really care."*COUGH*bloodrayne*COUGH* YOU ARE AN IDIOT, THATS HOW WE GOT BUSH AS A PRESIDENT.Umm...Actually...This last time, my vote for Campbell would NOT have mattered, because he lost by more than 1 vote, MY vote wouldn't have even TIED it...And the time before that, I SAID that my vote wouldn't have mattered because he won by a large majority, so my vote WOULD NOT HAVE MATTERED...Thus, proving MY point, TWICE...See how I can do that without childish name calling?
Roberts only good in NOES movies.Although this is certainly a matter of opinion, it leads me to wonder if you have seen Galaxy Of Terror, Tobe Hooper's Dance Of The Dead, 2001 Maniacs, Strangeland, Wishmaster, Urban Legends, Eaten Alive, Night Terrors, Mangler and a few more that I know I'm forgetting to mention...Whether the movies were good or not, Englund's performances were infallible (although he WAS a bit over the top in 2001 Maniacs, but that whole thing was cheesy as hell, so...)...Anyway, if NOT then I'd call this an example of Neverending's point...

I see your point on the voting thing and appologize, but, I have seen most of those movies englund was in (except galaxy of terror), I just don't think that he did a good job in any of them. I also forgot to note that it was my opinion that he wasn't good in anything else. I was going on about opinions and totally forgot to note mine, which made me feel like an idiot. But hey, that happens. Anyways, yeah so i guess i was wrong and apologies all around to whoever this effects.

and psycom, here's a few heads up about this forum.
1. Never call BR and idiot. Trust me, she's from Kentucky and I once argued with her...just not a good idea.
2. Get an avatar, it makes you look more experienced and less, sorry for using this word, noobish.
3. You can edit the message under your name to anything you want. Look at mine for instance.
4. Welcome and have a fun time, never use the letters OMC together, never trip the riff and whatever you do, don't become a bigloader. (The others who have been here from b4 a couple of moths ago will get this)
