guys in horror
 

fuck you guys, if there are 'blah blah blah, women' threads here, then guys can have a thread, too.
to kick off the guys in horror thread righwise:

let us bask in his bad ass-ness and manliness for a moment.

Ash is cool but for superior geneticly engineered intellegence and a awesome set of rubberized pecks I have to go with the mans man, Khan

KHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Couldn't help it.

Check out the views this thread gets in comparason with the views the Female's in horror thread gets:rolleyes: Good ol' double standard....

Oh so true, Creeper. Khan was probably the first guy that scared me. I saw "The Wrath of Khan" when I was just a wee lass. Definitely a ruthless bastard.

I wish I could bring up video games, because then I could really....anyway.

Villains: besides afore mentioned
Jack Torrence/the Overlook Hotel
Pennywise (although turned out to really be female)
Pinhead
Dracula (camp, but timeless)
wassname from A Clockwork Orange (before the govt. got him)
Bad Ash (had to)

Heros:
Dimitri (Exorcist)
Stu Redman (The Stand...book and Gary Sinese rocks my socks)
eventhough he dies, the man from NLOTD (the guy the rednecks kill because he's black. (I cannot for the life of me remember his name, but I remember really liking him because he knew just how to survive....until they shot him.
Ash- no brainer he's just so, well, ash.

That's all of the good guys. I could make an eternal damnation scroll of the bad ones. I LOVE a good bad guy.

What are you implying?

heres 2 big guys in the horror genre.

Re: guys in horror
 

LOL As if men don't already have enough attension. Its kinda like this: A group of fat people, and one skinny person, go on a picnic. The fat people scarf up all of the food in the basket except for ONE lemon meringue pie. The skinny person jumps on it out of desperation and promptly eats it up. The fat people get mad, and begin to scream "Hey, that's not fair. You ate the whole pie by yourself and we didn't get a single piece!" The skinny person explains, "Well, if you all had not ate up everything else in the basket, you would have gotten your share of the pie. As it stands, you deserve no pie because you were selfish in your desire to take everything else for yourself. So, from now on, when we go on other picnics, nobody will get ANY pie, until I get my fair share of the rest of the meal."

The moral of this story is... Well, if you don't know, then your mentality is that of the fat characters.

Why does everything always have to be male versus female?:rolleyes:

Im implying that the gulf between male and female is deeper and more vast than any ocean. And i venture to expect we will never even begin to understand eachother.

It isn't necessary to "understand" each other...Sometimes the differences are so great that it is impossible to understand ...The important thing is to "be aware" that the differences exist and to accept and respect each other, despite our differences...no matter how different we are

If there are threads about women, then in interest of equality there should be a guys in horror thread.

Sure, knock yourself out. But remember that the ONLY reason there is a women in horror thread is because there are so few important female roles in horror films. There is really no need for a men in horror thread because most of the significant roles in horror are played by, well, MEN. Get it?

yes or no question: Do you want gender equality?
not a poll, it's directed at SFF

sure, but actualy, I wasn't speaking about gender equality when I said it made no sense to have a men in horror thread. I just meant the forum itsself is primarily about men. Because most of the monsters are men. Its called practicality. Aparently you failed to read my "Fat people and the pie" story.

why the hell are you guys turning this into a sexism issue?

the only reason i asked about horror womenis cuz i wanted to see any burnt women or ones that looked like fish with masks or something. i dont know horror like most of u do so i was wondering if they made some.

<~~ didnt intend on this equality/.inequality shit

Burnt=Darkness Falls

Fish Women=Dagon

but the topics aren't exclusive to being about men. There are 2 topics that are about women. Not a character or characters that happen to be women, but women. "Horror chicks" and "How are women represetned in slasher movies?" (paraphrasing, obviously). That a lot of the characters are men, and that there are threads about them, do not mean that the threads are about men. Is a thread about Freddy about men? No. It's about a particular man, just as a thread about, say, Sadako/Samara isn't about women. There are threads about women that are specifically made for conversing about women. One about women horror characters and one about how they are represented in slasher movies. If you are for gender equality, then you have nothing to complain about that there is a thread about guys in horror.


Star Trek isn't horror, though.

When did I say anything about Star Trek?

it was said in response to Kahn being brought up.

Now, lets get back to the subject.

The best thing ive ever heard out of your mouth sam, good form.

well thanks, Ar. I've gotten "OMG shut up!" and "OMFG stop" and "you suck!" but never a "good form".

so true

bad way to do it:
recognize it, try to change her, try to change yourself


good way:
recognize it, deal with it, live with it.... in harmony

another great 'Guy' in horror: The pimp in Demons. Door locked? Kick the fucking thing in.
