wow, touching, I agree with it 100%

What a load of tosh. I think there was supposed to be a political message in there somewhere. I was too busy gagging to fully apreciate it, but the basic message was 'wouldn't it be nice if everyone was nice'.
What exactly is this film trying to say? War is bad? I don't suppose anybody actually likes war. People who whinge about the problems of the world but don't have any solutions annoy me, but not as much as people who whinge about the problems of the world, offer no solutions but pretend that they offer a solution. The solution presented by this director seems to be 'if only everyone was as enlightened as me, there would be no more suffering'.

heh, I agree meg, it kind of sucked... probably the weakest political message... ever. And just what the hell was Mother Teresa doing there at the end?

But I really liked that tune, anyone know what it is?
I've heard it before but can't for the life of me reember what it is.

It's by Moby. Not sure what it's called.

Sigmar · 11-23-2004, 03:07 AM

Sheesh, easy now!

I thought it was a nice little thing.

I'm of the belief that the world is full of morons who love throwing rocks/missiles/bullets/arrows/penguins at each other to see what will happen, therefore there will always be war and one day humanity will wipe itself off the face of the earth, and the universe will be grateful.

The martians/transformers/klingons living on the dark side of the moon will then finally decide to visit Earth as it is no longer inhabited by war-mongering apes.

They miss those peaceful dinosaurs y'see.

Humanity=stupid

Thank ye for sharing Shamrock.

I thought it was a great message! Why scoff at the simple, obvious truth? I didn't get any kind of political message out of this; just good will toward man. I'm sure we've all committed acts of good and bad. Which ones do you feel better about?
So, do a nice thing for someone today: help someone change a tire, carry the groceries etc. The Ironworks family seems pretty close to me and look at where we're all from. If we can get along online, why not in person too!

Lol, ye cynics out there, what's wrong with a little dreaming every now and then? [img]tongue.gif[/img]

@Jorath, to add to what Dirty Meg said, I believe it is called 'Play'

I saw parts of that before. I think it was exactly the same texts and maybe some of the pictures were in there as well but I couldn't really remember. It was on the video screen in a club.

That was beautiful. Something that really has a meaning. Had to right music to back up the intended emotion.
