    I don't really like being forced to hate things and people (I like to do so on my own accord), so when I am forced to, I hate them even more than I normally would. CB's best work that I've seen so far has been in The Fighter, but it's not a saving grace performance. While I was already down watching shitty movies, I also watched The Last Airbender movie. I now hate M. Night Shyamalan for life, that fucking child rapist. I may have liked the village, or 6th sense the first time, but most of his recent stuff leading up to a complete gang rape of an amazing story, it's just unacceptable. I feel sorry if TLA was the only exposure you had to the Avatar series, but at least you didn't have to watch a great thing get skull fucked. I'm pretty sure there are similar stories.

    You liked The Village?Sorry but any thought of speaking with authority about what's worthwhile and what isn't pretty much faded right there.
    Respect my lack of authority.

    Sure did, though I'm already used to not having a lot of people on my side about that one. In fact, I don't think I've ever heard anyone else say in person that they loved the Village. I think it makes me like it even more... it's mine, my village!

    No, staff leaves that thread since it was iLUVNZB's first of the type, but he posts about six of those a day now. It's a lot of work for staff to delete his constant outpourings of man-love.

    That sounds like a difficult process. I don't know how many years it would have taken to get to know everyone that I've called an idiot, my socializing capacity just wouldn't be able to cope. You should have just made a judgment call on it, "the village fool" just doesn't have the same ring to it. I wouldn't mind being the Village idiot, just as long as I'm not the Village policeman, or construction worker. I don't like being in a position of authority and I don't like manual labor.

    You gain personal redemption points for such an answer. You have hope yet...

    As for his l acting skill I think you are confusing lack of range with lack of talent. Some actors can convey a great deal without outwardly expressing a lot .
    Suggest for (maybe ) better appreciation of what he has to offer you watch The Machinist or Harsh Times or American Psycho or The Fighter.
    Saw "The Fighter" last night. Never knew how easily a homeless crackhead role came to him. The film itself (plot wise) was meh.
