Jules and Thor review Frozen 2

[primetime]

I've been on here a while, thank you very much. And I certainly won't let a twit like you run me off.

By the way, I may have a Ph.D. but if you're ever in Tennessee, send me a PM and we can get together for a nice little chat. Somehow I think you might take my welfare a little more seriously after said chat.

What did you think of Frozen 2

What did you think of Frozen 2

I'm on a self-imposed moratorium of studio films - I haven't seen one in several years. Even when I still watched them, I didn't care for animation. Kracauer's Theory of Film is considered one of the most important books ever written on film theory; Kracauer has a pretty good line in the book about animation, while discussing Fantasia: "A single ripple of a leaf in the wind suffices to denounce their [animated films'] treacherous glamour." No doubt Tarkovsky read the book and made full use of the idea in his films.

What the f**k is your problem?

Damn! I thought his other blowhard posts were endless bloviating. Thank God that one didn't get an honest answer

"But I tell you that everyone will have to give account on the day of judgment for every empty word they have spoken. For by your words you will be acquitted, and by your words you will be condemned.”

Just a thought but perhaps you might benefit from reading Matthew a bit further...

"But he who is greatest among you shall be your servant. And whoever exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted"

This gimmick owns a lot, big ups

Congratulations, you joined the club of those in this thread tossing around empty words that squarely qualify for the verses I quoted. I did nothing more than defend myself after being insulted; the apostle Paul did no less dozens of times throughout his letters.

God has been humbling me since I was seven years old. You, conversely, could stand a little (or a lot) of humbling. Be aware that everyone gets theirs sooner or later; sooner is a lot more pleasant than later.

"God opposes the proud, but gives grace to the humble.".

Get crackin, TN.

But there is also this:

“Dear God, Life is Hell.”

Oh, wait, that’s Salinger.

 

[PatsWickedPissah]

EPIC Thread. We need one like this in the offseason.

Disagree all you like... it's a fact, Jack.

Wonder if Jules knew what he has wrought

I am an engineer (truly a humbling profession) married to redhead, together we have 5 children. I get humbled on multiple occasions every damn day by God, people and circumstances far better positioned to point out my many failings. I'm afraid your judgement will have to get in line.
Ice up son.

Salinger? Knife to a gun fight, okay maybe a sword but still...

 

[oldrover]

I was gonna jump into this thing...

...then I reviewed my professional credentials of "radio jingle writer who fritters away a surprising amount of hours on the internet"...








...and I opted to back off.

 

[aluminum seats]

There’s just MASSIVE trolling going on in this thread, right? Right?

The Big Fish got the old man in the end though.

And Hemingway's overrated. Very good writer.
Not in the same class as Melville,Twain or Steinbeck.
Oh shiit, I better call Twain Clemens or The World's Greatest All-time Literary Genius will attempt to wound my pride with his biting wit.
Literally. His wit bites.

 

[Tony2046]

Moral of the story is..... Piss off a humbled rednecked Christian and watch the flaunted degrees and personal barbs fly.

" Turn the other cheek"? Nah.... that's for wussies.

" Educated retorts"? Nah.... That's for dummies.

Wow, I thought you were a twit before but now you have removed all doubt. No one with half a brain considers any of the three you listed as on the same level as Hemingway. Melville is several levels above Twain or Steinbeck - I have never met you and I'm embarrassed for you that you are so oblivious to your fathomless ignorance as to type a sentence that values those two above Hemingway - but, good as he is, he didn't change all of literature as did Hemingway.

You can find plenty of third-rate hacks who teach Comp 101 at community colleges who will disparage Hemingway for the price of a latte at Starbucks, and it's a sure sign of a tyro who has no understanding whatsoever of literature or art. You'll never find an important critic who puts any of the writers you listed above Hemingway. No writer since Shakespeare has influenced literature as much as he did. I could teach you but it would take months, or in your case more likely years, and you would be too busy mocking to learn anything.

Every two-bit producer in Hollywood knows what subtext is, and faults any script that doesn't have it in the dialogue. There was no subtext before Hemingway: every writer, Shakespeare included, told the reader what he was supposed to feel at any given moment. Hemingway so thoroughly changed literature, and by extension art, that it's impossible to fully grasp his influence because it's everywhere.

Matthew 12:36. I have no doubt that you think Jesus is a myth; someday you'll learn otherwise, and you won't enjoy it.

Oh, so you're related?
