Guest Yegg Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 romans and greeks (old ones) are responsible for lot of BS going on today. not to mention sexual perversities, dissection of sciences into a bunch of non-compatible specialized teachings with isolated terminologies. omfg, what are you going on about?

playbynumbers Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 Why do I get the feeling PBN has some issues? this is exactly the problem, lol; anyone who disagrees with "perversion and nihilism for all!" is, by definition, 'repressed' or 'has issues'. maybe the people who have issues are those who are entertained by someone cutting a woman's clittoris with a knife? i dunno! but sure, i had a slightly disproportionate reaction to the film, as i mentioned. it seems that, skimming between the lines, he may have recently broken up with his gf. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GORDO Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 collpase of great societies has nothing to do with anything involved in depravity or any preceived notion of moral sense. it has to do with systems that grow beyond their capacity for stability. when the solution to past problems become problems in their own and when it can't no longer old itself together. after it crumbles a new one comes which will lay foundations for a "bigger" society, and when this new one outgrows the foundations... I'd say you could judge a society on how much the average actions and average moral standarts differ. ie. how hypocritical it is. you know, like priests being kiddie fiddlers. I say yes, our current one is pretty bad in this aspect, even in the least controvertial ethical issues. since there is no absolute moral what counts is only what the individual or the collective consider as ethical and how that differs with what he7they actually do. although maybe.. maybe.. the preceptions of right and wrong come from the perceptions of what disrupts the established order or not, then maybe yes; if people disregard things once considered as bad then ok yes i could see how you could argue this could lead to collapse. however if the aspects which threaten order change over time then so should the perception of good and evil. in this last case it is those fundamentalist puritanicals that advocate strict adherence to outdated moral principles that threaten the stability of order.

Squee Posted May 30, 2009 Author Share Posted May 30, 2009 I love how people comment on a movie they haven't watched. I watched Antichrist yesterday and none of the scenes that the press went apeshit over in Cannes were even close to what they managed to describe them as being. It's an absolutely beautiful movie - actually I wish I could get every single frame printed as a poster. And fuck all that morality bullshit you guys have got going.

Squee Posted May 30, 2009 Author Share Posted May 30, 2009 that would be, like, a lot of posters man. Yeah, just around 144.000 posters. I'm not kidding though. I would love 144.000 posters on my living room walls. And if I put them chronological order and run by them really fast it would be like watching the movie with no sound on.

Guest Shit Attack Posted May 30, 2009 Share Posted May 30, 2009 i love the idea of a guy having nightmares of a film hes never seen, can you describe the nightmares please ? also if youre admitting that people have been depraved throughout history or whatever what difference does it make if we watch films about it now ? was there a point in history where people werent depraved and did this coincide with "art" only showing people doing nice things ? and would the concept of genital mutialtion (or whatever other depraved stuff qualifies) never have occured to any of us if it werent for this film or others like it? also if films like this are twisting our minds and causing depravity what should we be watching so that our minds dont become twisted and we can stay on the straight and narrow ? do you think if we only watched films about nice non depraved things then we would all become good people who only do nice things ?

Squee Posted August 31, 2009 Author Share Posted August 31, 2009 I may watch this tonight. Is it worth it? Absolutely. If you love a movie with great atmosphere, beautiful cinematography, and great actors then you're in for a treat. There are a few hiccups along the way but if you can look beyond that then you've got yourself a great movie. Also, make sure to watch it with a great sound system. It's worth it.
