And by heart I mean "masturbate to".
I'M DEF GONNA SEE THIS by BringingSexyBack	Mar 6th, 2008 11:07:52 PM
This is Camilla Belle, yall. The goddess herself. If only she would trim her brows just a tiny bit though. But that's not a deal breaker.
"blissfully retarded" is shoot 'em up or crank. by Holodigm	Mar 6th, 2008 11:11:19 PM

The review, that is. I'm not gonna even bother with this outrageous dreck movie.
Seriously, has Roland Emmerich made a halfway watchable movie si by TVguy4566	Mar 6th, 2008 11:36:00 PM
Independence Day? Godzilla was monster-sized crapola with Matthew Broderick cast as the action star (seriously, could you pick a worst actor for this type of movie). The Patriot was American Revolution, Braveheart ripoff crap and casting Mel Gibson as the lead didn't help with the comparisons to Braveheart. The Day After Tomorrow made me want Global Warming to come and destroy all remnants of that film. Even Independence Day and Stargate had their flaws and weren't exactly tops on my list of great popcorn or Sci-Fi movies. I hold absolutely no hope for this movie being good. It just sounds dumb and not in the good way no matter how much Harry enjoyed its stupidness. I would have rather wanted a straight remake of One Million Years BC and screw the fact that humans and dinosaurs never existed together. Were Mamoths and sabertooth tigers around when the Egyptians were building the pyramids? There is about a 5,000 year mistake right there. At least if you are going to make it stupid anyway, up the dinosaur action.
If slaves didn't build the pyramids.... by closeencounter	Mar 6th, 2008 11:36:33 PM
Then who did? The Egyptians themselves? Please.
why by The Real MiraJeff	Mar 6th, 2008 11:37:27 PM
can't Hollywood do these types of movies right anymore? I'm sure this one will make a ton of cash but I wonder if Sony's rethinking that decision to committ $200 mil to Emmerich's 2012. I doubt the year will make much of a difference. Emmerich's made one good movie, Independence Day, which some, not I mind you, feel doesn't even hold up that well. The Patriot was alright, I suppose, but the rest is sadly dreck.
I'd feel offended if i'm a retard by DarthBakpao	Mar 6th, 2008 11:37:41 PM

I barely made it through half this review. by LoneGun	Mar 6th, 2008 11:42:27 PM
And even that was an effort. But I think I get the general idea. The film is cheese - bad but in a fun sort of way. Sometimes I don't mind Emmerich (STARGATE, THE DAY AFTER TOMORROW), but other times I can't stand his work (the GODZILLA reinterpretation). And this one looks about as ambitious as GODZILLA, so I'll probably pass on it.
Not blissfully retarded, just plain retarded... by Sledge Hammer	Mar 6th, 2008 11:47:34 PM
...that's what this movie is. It's the most embarrassingly awful wannabe epic blockbuster since...ye gods, I don't know when. I mean seriously, this thing is awful even by Roland Emmerich standards. In fact I'd say it may be his worst film yet. This thing is Godzilla bad folks. Hell, it's borderline worse...
WELL I AM A RETARD AND I AM OFFENDED by cromwell1666	Mar 6th, 2008 11:48:57 PM
BTW- Independence Day-Godzilla-The Patriot? Devlin and Emmerich are terrible terrible filmmakers. If you want them to stop, STOP GOING TO THESE AWFUL MOVIES. YOUR voices are loudest at the box office.

Harry, learn the difference... by Law Talkin Guy	Mar 6th, 2008 11:54:40 PM
...between "infer" and "imply." Infer means to deduce. Imply means to suggest. Try not to mix them up, especially in a sentence about mental handicaps.
We had a dumbass crying SPOILER again!! by pdennett316	Mar 6th, 2008 11:55:17 PM
Fuck sake, if it seems spoilery then stop fucking reading the text dipshit!! How can you even read the text, what with smacking your own head and being unable to focus? I figured out there was a spoiler coming before anything major was spilled, how can so many lack that basic skill? Instead they keep blindly reading till the end and get all pissy because they were too fucking stupid to stop reading. As for this film, I'll never pay to see it, instead I'll wait till it's on Sky Movies where I've at least got the satisfaction of paying for good movies, while laughing at shit like this comes as a bonus. Oh, SPOILER - I tore whiny bastards a new asshole in the preceding sentences.....you have been warned. SPOILER. Dingleberry's.
gorked / yo-yo / retardo by mr.brownstone	Mar 6th, 2008 11:58:30 PM
Those three are all gold standard descriptors of Roland Emmerich picture shows.
To add to pdennetts thought by cromwell1666	Mar 6th, 2008 11:58:46 PM
This is basically a spoiler site. It almost seems redundant to have to repeat it constantly. AICN is usually inside and early information, and as far as I know thats the main reason people come to the site.

Have you no shame? by TerryMalloy	Mar 7th, 2008 12:04:49 AM

Um...Harry...it WASN'T Jewish slaves who built the pyramids. by NapoleonDynamite	Mar 7th, 2008 12:14:22 AM
It was the Egyptians themselves. First of all, if you check your Bible, you'll see that it doesn't say the Israekites built pyramids, just that they were slaves. The word "pyramid" is not in the Bible. Secondly, and more importantly, THERE NEVER WERE ANY ISRAELITE SLAVES IN EGYPT. It never happened. They were never enslaved. The story is a myth. There was no Moses, no exodus, no fucking Mt. Sinai, no wandering in the wilderness, no conquest of Canaan. None of it. The archological evidence debunks every fucking bit of it. Look for a book called THE BIBLE UNEARTHED by two Israeli archaeologists named Israel Finkelstein and Neil asher Silberman. Finkelstein heads the archaeolgy department at Tel Aviv. The book details what has long been known among archaeologists of the Ancient Middle East -- that the whole of the book of Exodus is fiction. According to the Bible, the Israelites were slaves in Egypt for 400 years, yet not a trace of their presence has ever been found in egyptian archaeology. 2 million people supposedly spent 40 years in the Sinai Peninsula yet not a trace of their presence has ever been found there ever. There was one oasis in partticlar where the Bible says they spent 38 of their 40 years. Not a single sign of human occupation has ever been found there either from anywhere close to the alleged time of the Exodus. Archaeologists can find the remains of small campsites from small bands of bedouins dating back hundreds or thousands of years, yet 2 milllion people in one spot for 38 years left not a single potsherd or bone. Even the amount of shit -- literal shit as in feces -- that would have accumulated from 2 million people in 38 years would form a literal mountain, yet there is no shit, no garbage dumps, no signs of building, domesticated animals any habitation whatsoever during that time. The archoleogy also shows no influx of invaders from the sinai, no conquest of Canaanite cities Jericho was an unoccupied ruin during the alleged time of Joshua and it had noi walls. What the archaeology does show is that the culture who became the Israelites emerged around the 10th or 11th century BCE from the Canaanites. Their language and the pantheon (the Israelites were actually polytheistic until after the babylinian exile)came from the Canaanites. The Book of exodus is ancient, bullshit propganda, loosely based on the Hyksos expulsion in the 16th Century BCE (several hundred years before the Isralites even existed). As it happens, there WERE all kinds of migrations in Egypt by all kinds of people and those who worked on the pyramids probably were multi-ethnic. No one knows for sure exactly where the labor came from, but one thing we DO know for sure is that it wasn't the Israelites. Having said all that, none of the pyramids were built as long ago as 10,000 BCE. The oldest pyramid (the step-pyramid of Djoser) wasn't built until about 2700 BCE. There wasn't even an Egyptian civilization until until about 3200 BCE.

Roland Emmerich did more damage to films that Michael Bay by lavatory love machine	Mar 7th, 2008 12:28:13 AM

There were no Jews at the time of the pyramids. by Dave Bowman	Mar 7th, 2008 12:35:45 AM
The Giza Pyramids date to around 2500 BC. There was no identifiable Jewish, Hebrew, or Israelite race for a good thousand years after that.
Messi by NapoleonDynamite	Mar 7th, 2008 12:36:49 AM
There's nothing unrealstic about prophets getting their visions from drugs. Zoroaster did it. Some of teh ancient Hindu Vedas were written on mushrooms (which they call "Soma" in the Rig Veda). The only theing wrong with the "Moses was tripping balls" theory is that there wasn't any Moses. He was a purely mythical character. Having said that, it's possible that those drugs influenced the ancient mountain worshipping cults from whence the Mt. Sinai legend was derived, but there wasn't a literal Moses.
Camilla Belle is drawing me closer and I can't resist! by Kirbymanly	Mar 7th, 2008 12:52:36 AM
There's a part of me that wants to hand my money over just so maybe they'll put Camilla Belle in more films.... but after the shit-fest streak of The Patroit, Godzilla and The Day After Tomorrow (watch our heroes out-run weather!) I'll never trust that guy again. So long folks, going to rent "Quest For Fire" and "Caveman".

BEST REVIEW EVER, HARRY! by superduper3000	Mar 7th, 2008 01:39:30 AM
Seriously, this is the single best review of yours I've ever read. You admit to liking a movie that has no merit ala Ebert loving big-titty films. BRAVO! Just the right balance of pussy-speak and nuance, you really should speak your truthful mind more and be less worried about impressing anyone. In the end, the truth always comes out with crap-fests like this! Oh yeah, WATCHMENT CAST PIX!! In full garb!! http://tinyurl.com/384o6a
I agree that it's actually a pretty good review. by NapoleonDynamite	Mar 7th, 2008 01:43:42 AM
I at least feel like I know what I'm in for. It sounds like the kind of movie that it would be fun to watch on DVD with two or three buddies after sparking up a big, huge fatty. Basically it sounds like a Conan movie.

An Orion Tall?! Revisionist lies by aliies of the J-Rods by BrandLoyalist	Mar 7th, 2008 02:12:14 AM
Just another J-Rod smear campaign... the Orions have never enslaved, abducted, nor experimented on humans. It was the J-Rods or "Greys" who provided the advanced technology it took to build the network of pyramids and configure them as a properly functioning stargate, and who pursuaded the leaders of the Egyptians and the many resident Semitic tribes to provide a labor pool for their huge "public works" project. Much of the language of their agreement is said to appear nearly unchanged in the infamous Tau-9 treaty; notably, passages regarding provision of subjects for biological research. The ultimate cost of their betrayal may prove more terrible than most will dare imagine.
Straightforward by Don Lockwood	Mar 7th, 2008 02:14:03 AM
I know Harry feels like he has to jazz things up with his particular "style", but for the love of Buddy Christ, how about a straightforward review that actually says whether you liked the goddamn movie? I think he was trying to say that it was so bad that it was good, but I couldn't decypher his particular brand of Variety-speak. What the fuck is a skein?

The reason Hollywood can't do these kind of films anymore is because they keep handing them to shit directors.

Why can't you just say its a terrible film. Its clearly another badly written and directed mess that will make money on the strength of good advertising and Cgi. Don't go and see it. If everyone stops going to see this vacuous shit, Hollywood will take notice. Stop trying to justify it, Harry.

Prequel to 2012? by cunningmunki	Mar 7th, 2008 06:54:41 AM
Whaddya reckon? When I heard Emmerich's next film was gonna be about the Mayan prophecies/end of the world, I wondered whether there was another reason this film was set in 10,000 BC, which is around the supposed time the Giza Pyramids were actually built according to the whole ancient-civilisation/Atlantean theory, from who's technology the Mayans supposedly got their 'advanced' calendar that predicts the end of the world in 2012. And lo and behold there's a "alien Atlantean" building the pyramids. A link to '2012' seems the only logical reason for including such a bizarre character in this movie.

Eating paint chips by jefflebowski	Mar 7th, 2008 07:10:07 AM
What is truly retarded is the number of dudes saying they will actually watch this tripe because Camilla Belle is in it. If you wanna get some mental ammo for your "alone time", there's this thing called the "internet" that is full of hot chicks. Don't spend your hard-earned Taco Bell Shift Manager money supporting retarded films like this or Transformers, Armaggedon, etc. You're only encouraging the problem.

The tower of BABEL, not GIZA!!! by fjosman	Mar 7th, 2008 07:55:56 AM
I see all this stuff about people complaining the film is about Egypt and building the pyramids at Giza. Well, duh, although the movie is clearly no history book, everyone knows the pyramids where NOT build in 10.000 BC, come on people! This must be a twist of the story of the tower of BABEL, probably ripped off from the good book. The pyramids at Giza was built ca 2500 BC.

This might have been enjoyable as by veritasses	Mar 7th, 2008 10:21:36 AM
a "blissfully retarded film" IF it had been made in an era - like in the 1950's and 1960's - where that sort of genre was cool and hip and audiences didn't know any better and if it wasn't so way, way over the stop stupid and it wasn't made by a director with a proven track record of wasting budgets (think of what other directors could've made with that money) and if a night out at the movies weren't so expensive that seeing a movie like this makes you feel cheated etc. Saddly those days are long gone. It's not often I have ill will towards anyone but for all our sakes and for the sake of the artists who could put that money to better use, I hope Emmerich never makes another film... plus it's not like Emmerich is going hungry or anything so I don't feel that bad.

Giza? In your imagination! by conchetumare73	Mar 7th, 2008 11:35:42 AM
I think that the definition "retarded", and any kind of synonyms it could bring with itself, fits better as the real description of your review...Emmerich never confirmed that the pyramids in 10000 BC where the ones corresponding to Giza. Get your self well informed before criticizing others you Star Wars freak! And that goes to all the freaks in this web page too. It's really disgusting too see how you all freak out when some bullshitty science fiction film like Cloverfield goes out...Bunch of nerds...

Since Michael Bay has been brought up . . . by jimmay	Mar 7th, 2008 11:58:27 AM
And I'm one of the haters who feels the need to point out how terrible his movies are every chance I get, I will go on the record here to say that Emmerich is in every way a worse director; and his films are simply unbearable. Independence Day and Godzilla are atrocities, MST3K grade boondoggles that should fill anyone in their possession with soul-crushing shame. I'd watch Transformers for weeks on end before I'd ever sit through Independence Day again.

Anchorite by jimmay	Mar 7th, 2008 12:01:10 PM
That animation has been driving me nuts since they put it up. I assume it's Lawrence of Arabia (which I'll sheepishly admit I've never seen), but it's so vague and un-iconic it could be from any movie ever made where a guy in a turban made a facial expression and looked at something.

We are all Jewish slaves today, am I right? by performingmonkey	Mar 7th, 2008 12:49:33 PM
Yes I am. The whole point of democracy is to fool people into thinking that we're not. The Holocaust's books were cooked to make us feel guilty. Operation Northwoods - the 1962 plan to stage acts of terrorism on U.S. soil and blame it on Cuba in order to gain voters' support for military action.

Scientific Criticism by Vergil	Mar 7th, 2008 01:21:11 PM

Is it better than Dr. Zhivago? by Reel American Hero	Mar 7th, 2008 01:23:01 PM
One thing that truly bugs me, especially when I worked at Blockbuster, was when people ask is "insert cheesy comedy movie title here" better than "insert drama title here". Honestly, how do you compare movies of two different genres on merits of quality? So asking something like, is 10,000 B.C. better than Semi Pro is really subjective. I've heard bad things about both, but one is an intentional comedy, the other is a soon to be relabled a Sci Fi Channel original B-Movie. It really all depends on what whoever is in the mood for. It's like saying which is better food buffalo wings from Hooters or a Filet Mignon. It's really all subjective to particular tastes and shouldn't be compared.
Harry is my favorite reviewer by dr sauch	Mar 7th, 2008 01:29:19 PM
I love the fact that he enjoys a good retarded movie. This is why we have VanDamme, this is why we have BIG TROUBLE LITTLE CHINA. Am I comparing this piece of shit to those movies? No. What I am asking is why is it okay to love old stupid movies, but when they come out during our time, we shred them? My kids will watch 10,000 BC on digital cable and laugh and talk about it, and ask me how they could make such crap back in the 2000's.
dr sauch by Vergil	Mar 7th, 2008 01:36:42 PM
Since you have a question mark in your post I'll assume you are asking a question. And the answer is: Silly can often be fun, but stupid rarely so.

that's the best review you've written in a while harry. it actually kind of made me want to see the movie--despite the fact that i wrote it off five seconds into the trailer. Tall alien-atlantean pyramid builders? Pussy-Motivated Savages? hah. nice.

Pyramids by Alientoast	Mar 7th, 2008 02:13:52 PM
The Great Pyramids probably predate the Egyptian Civilization as we understand it, TBH. We basically base our "knowledge" of when they were made to Herodotus, who basically took it for word from the ancient Egyptian version of a tourguide.

Alientoast by Vergil	Mar 7th, 2008 02:30:33 PM
There are a couple of bits of evidence that the pyramids predate the "Egyptian Civilization as we understand it". Namely, the water erosion of the Sphinx, and some astrological calculating (the Orion Mystery). But these fly in the face of MUCH evidence to the contrary (not just Herodotus...not by a long shot). So we should probably downgrade your "probably" to a "possibly".

If you were a little more perceptive, my post was a response to the chronic HATE-BUSH shit that is always frequenting these message boards. There was an earlier post that called this film "THE GEORGE BUSH of Films. I simply responded to such ignorance with a more clever dose of sarcasm, calling it "THE BARACK OBAMA of films." At least I saw it as overrated -- just as I see the inexperienced and unqualified but rhetorically eloquent candidate. sigh Don't you guys ever know how to take some sarcasm? Such mindless "Obamatose" behavior is almost an "Obamanation" (like this ridiculous film).

RottenTomatoes: 10K BC = 8% favorable... by ccchhhrrriiisssm	Mar 7th, 2008 02:58:29 PM

I suppose that some people are simply moved by the hype (like Harry). They take Harry's advice and turn off their minds when they walk into the doors of a theater, a show or a voting booth. I'm going to the movies this week. But I am going to watch BLINDSIGHT. ;-)

The Bible doesn't state what they were doing, just that they were slaves. As for Moses being on drugs, sounds like another dreamt up and failed attempt by the 'enlightened' to try and tarnish a religion. A movie like this should totally appeal to these folks... I bet it sounds way more plausible to them! Someone's on drugs, and I'm pretty sure it ain't Moses...
harry, do you avoid reviewing certain movies that by Lloyd Bonafide the Korean War Veteran	Mar 7th, 2008 05:41:35 PM
you dont like? or accentuating the good attributes of bad movies? what im getting at is, does your business you are in force you to pick and choose what you say or what you review? (please take this as a question, not an attack - after all, good business is hopefully good business). The reason i ask is that every movie review seems to be a good one, and then i go and see a movie (that i probably would see anyway) that i think is, ahem, "retarded."

Seems to me that if we want to see more original content and less liscenced properties and remakes, we've got to put up with some misguided efforts. Harry's right. This is exactly the kind of thing either Harryhausen or Charleton Heston (or, GASP - BOTH) would have been sucked into before the 70's ended. This COULD have been a classic. It just isn't. If it IS fun, I think we might want to support it, just to keep GhostRider 2 waiting in the wings. Besides, if this is a hit, Vern will be inundated with DTV pre-history movies, and that's a collection of reviews I have to read!

You're right. It wasn't "the Israelis" claiming that Moses was on drugs, it was one Sraeli psychology professor witha pet theory.

the other reviewer thought arabs built the pyramids by Happy Boy	Mar 8th, 2008 01:15:15 AM
why are you all even arguing this, no one thinks israelites built the pyramids save people who get their history from "The 10 Commandments" with charlton heston. of course the egyptians built the pyramids themselves and that's what anyone with a decent education is taught. one of the reasons why egypt was able to divert the huge amount of labor the pyramids required is the high/low season of the nile itself. the incredible richness of the soil following the yearly flooding of the nile allowed the egyptians to cultivate their crops for the entire year in a short season, thereby freeing up labor for the rest of the year. FREE EGYPTIANS built the pyramids as huge civic projects living for months of the year in massive labor camps in service to the pharaoh. no where else on earth did a civilization have this luxury, it's due to this basic surplus of food in addition to architectural prowess that was the crucial piece in allowing egypt to create these great works. no jews anywhere in this story except in jewish myth itself which sought an association with the glory of the greatest historical nation of ancient times

You don't know what the fuck you're talking about. You really don't. You've obviously never taken a course in archaeology or read single peer-reviewed journal. Almost none of the historical claims in the Bible can be confirmed by archaeological evidence and a great deal of it is directly REFUTED by the evidence. I detailed some of it upthread, but that's by no means all of it. You are uneducated on the subject and you are making yourself look stupid. Go read some journals and come back when you know something.
TomBodet by NapoleonDynamite	Mar 8th, 2008 08:18:25 PM
This Alexander canard (or sometimes Julius Caesar) is a common gambit used by literalist apologists. It's bullshit. There is a great deal f archaeological and documentary evidence suporting the campaigns, conquests and influence of Alexander the Great. It's not comprable to the character of Moses who is unattested outside the Bible, but the more damning evidence is the simple fact that there never were any Israelites in Egypt, therefore, no role for the leader of an Exodus. It never happened. The battles of Alexander can be confirmed archaeologically. The archaeology CONTRADICTS everything about the Moses fable. As to Jesus, most historians do believe he existed but that (obviously) he wasn't magic and he never came back to life. Almost nothing is considered to be historically verifiable about him other than that he was crucified under Pilate (the one thing which iscorroborated outside the Boble by Tacitus and Josephus). One thing you should also bear in mind is that any ancient attestation of an ancient personality autromatically becomes suspect when supertnatural claims are made about that person. Impossible claims can alwaus be safely assumed to be impossible. That is the standard for evry other religion and mythology but Chroiwstians want special rules for their own fairy tales. The person alleging a "miracle" is the one with burden of proof.

Napolean by snomusic	Mar 8th, 2008 08:44:12 PM
"For the wisdom of this world is foolishness before God." I would reccomend watching Mountain of Fire: The Search for the True Mount Sinai. Also, I suspect Fireball isn't too worried about convincing you of God's existence, it's God that makes Himself real to you, not our arguments. Asfor the existence of Christ and His resurrection, consider this: How would a handful of followers scattered by the death of the man they followed for three years, return from that devastating loss proclaiming He rose again on the third day, enduring persecution, torture and slow agonizing death? The only way that would happen is if it were the truth. Men are willing to die for two things - that which they love and the truth. Men are not willing to die or be tortured for a lie. Christianity has survived and spread because it is truth and the testimonies of God's transforming power continue throughout the centuries, not only of the revelation of His Son and the price He paid for our redemtion, but also of the miracles He continues to do of healing, both physical and circumstantial. This post is not expected to convince you, but just for fun - do some research about the many atheists and scientists who set out to disprove God's existence and ended up believing on Jesus and His sacrifice and resurrection.

Testify my brothers! Hallalujah and amen! where are my snakes? I need to handle me some, maybe drink some strictnine to show my faith. Snocum, why don't you mention any of the following: 1.) The sheer numbers of scientests tthat have BECOME athiest or agnostic far outways the ones that went the other way. 2.)The fact that YOU PERSONALLY believe in bullshit fairy tale stories that are rooted in BELIEF doesn't mean the rest of without the herd mentality and irrationl fear have to buy in. Lastly, you seemed to gloss over that the largest growth in "christian" business churches are the charismatic end of the world types and the Mormons. Unless you're the kind that believes there type of delusions are not in the business of christianty. Oh yeah one other thing, Allah Akbar, these fuckers are dwarfing the buddy christers nonmormon type of converts then christian big business. Hail Luciefer! that made up story is just as likely as your made up story. There is no truth in relgion ya knob only irrationallity and fear of a dude wearing diapers that lives in the sky that knows all. Also wasn't Hay-sus a jew? So why do all you christers hate the jews? since you know he's like elvis and all to you guys ya know the king and all and hes a yidshe you should like those guys since you're ripping them off. Fuck i needs me anothe belt of whiskey so I can beat up my old lady like it says in the biblecomic.speakin of that shit why is there 2 bibles couldnt get it right the fist time. as a matter of fact take your bullshit christer stuff and stick it right up your jesus hole aka the glory hole.

this movie fucking blew by WolfmanNards	Mar 9th, 2008 12:46:39 AM
it wasnt even entertaining on a crappy level. At least with day after tomorrow, there was tons of shit to laugh at. This movie was long slow, pointless, thoughtless shit. There was 1 mammoth scene. It was about 7 mins long. The tiger thing lasted about 3 mins. And the bird things (which Im fairly certain never existed at any point) was about 10 minutes.) The rest of the movie is people walking in the desert in their underwear. Pure fucking shit. Waste of my time. I go to shit movies like this looking to at least have a good laugh. Like Dragon Wars. There's a fun romp. But this thing? Piss poor.
Hey, Snomusic by NapoleonDynamite	Mar 9th, 2008 01:58:18 AM
There is no evdience that the disciples ever claimed Jesus rose from the dead, nor that they wree ever executed for their beliefs. They left no writings of their own (Nothing in the New Testament was written by a disciple or an eyewitness of Jesus. The authorial traditions around Matthew, John and the apostolic epistles grew from 2nd Century folklore, not from historical reality). Also, people die for false beliefs all the time. Joseph Smith was martyred for his claims and refused to renounce them. Plus, unlike Jesus, there is first hand testimony from witnesses who say they saw his golden tablets. Those Heaven's Gate whackos died for their beliefs. The 9/11 hijackers died for their beliefs. Even the Christians who allegedly got persecuted by Nero and in later centuries weren't killed for their beliefs or their claims about Jesus. No One gave a shit about their beliefs or their claims about Jesus. They were scapegoated because they were despised for their lack of patriotism, their refusal to contribute or show respect to the state temples (something which wasn't really that religious but seen a s a symbolic gesture of respoect to the state -- very similar to saying the "under god" part of the Pledge of allegiance) and they wouldn't fight for their country. Also, they were obnoxious, proselytizing tools who constantly insulted pother people's gods. Everybody hated them because they were self-righteous assholes (the more things change, the mor they stay the same) so they became easy scapegoats for guys like Nero. No one gave the slightest shit what they believed.

My response was the only one I could come up with. When people "investigate" as you claim to have done, and come up with the conclusions you have, then what good is a rational, logical response? One hundred percent accuracy? That one phrase alone about anything that happened a few thousand years ago is enough to negate anything else one might say.

Jurassic Ripoff by Cheif Brody	Mar 9th, 2008 06:58:35 AM
Just call it what it is. Emmerich just looked at the Jurassic flicks and said..."Well...there's no ostriches...wholly mammoths or sabre-tooth tigers...so that makes this seem original!". By setting it IN 10,000 bc, he further distances his "vision" from the Jurassic series. Quite frankly...I was hoping to see a sabre-tooth tiger in JP: III. The "raptors as bad guys" premise was getting weak. I'll wait for Blu-Ray for this "retarded" version.
A MAMMOTH WOOLY TURD!!! by football	Mar 9th, 2008 07:29:03 AM
Emmerich is the anti-christ. His films have no soul or grasp of what makes a good story. What you get with Emmerich is always a few flashy effects and that's about it!! I can't think of one good Emmerich film where he's broken the mould and made a stand alone masterpiece. He really is the shittiest director out there, even worse than Bay (and that's saying something!) The only bit of news I want to read about Emmerich is his obituary... and what a joyous heavenly moment that'll be. Fuck him and all his films!!
Does anyone talk in the film? by andyman3000	Mar 9th, 2008 08:47:34 AM
I've seen the trailer where nobody talks and all action. Since this is a caveman film, and language was not yet invented, it would seem 'idiotic' if they did and ruin the magic of the era they're trying to recreate. Does Emmerich stick to that world?

Queefer Bukkake and Napolean and Vergil by snomusic	Mar 9th, 2008 11:53:42 AM
QB - My only response for you is seek some anger management counseling - that's seriously hate filled post ya got there. Napolean - That was an entertaining post. Especially where you state there was no evidence for what I stated in my post, yet you somehow magically have evidence to state they wre "obnoxious, proselytizing tools who constantly insulted other(sic) people's gods. Everybody hated them because they were self-righteous [expletive deleted]". That's rather amazing. It's not my job to convince you - seek Him and He will be found. Fox's Book of Martyrs would be a good read. If you feel more inclined to believe evidence from the twentieth century do a search on testimonies of Christians that survived China's persecution. Vergil - Did you have a point with that verse? In reply to your "anyone who lives their life by the bible probably never read it" is of course impossible. One could not live their life by the bible if they hadn't read it. In all seriousness thogh, if one has read the bible and is not convicted, profoundly changed or even stirred, then God has not made the truth contained within real to them [yet?]. I don't fault those who don't believe yet I find it interesting that because I do, folks like suit and tie and Queefer find it necessary to insult, demean and swear at me. That's cool though, I was told long ago to expect that ;o)
snomusic by Vergil	Mar 9th, 2008 12:33:12 PM
My point with that verse is obvious. If you don't see it then that explains your position. The implication of anyone "living their life by the Bible" is obviously anyone who SAYS they do, or even attempts to. Do you seriously believe in the literal interpretation of a book that advocates genocide, rape, infanticide, slavery, self-contradictory language, obvious scientific fallacies, and no way to justify itself other than to say it is right because it says it is right? Or perhaps you just see it as the original "Chicken Soup for the Soul"?

I believe. As I have stated before, the bible is spiritually understood - God hasn't given you understanding so we really don't have any common ground to actually discuss the Word. BTW, posting one verse does not make it obvious and my not having the ability to read minds does not explain my position. I have not put you in a box, please don't attempt to put me in one either.

"Spiritual Understanding" is Jabberwocky. There is understanding, and there is not understanding. My point in posting single verses is in response to you trying to make an arguement by posting single verses. The point is that you can make just about any arguement from the bible by posting single verses. Except the ones I posted are very much in context.

I really just wanted to voice my support for logic and reason. if someone wants to believe in God, the bible, quran, whatever i could careless, it's their right to do so. BUT when they start flying planes into buildings, bombing school buses, lighting themselves on fire, and using tanks, fighter jets and attack helicopters on civilians.. well then i have a problem. religion would be fine and dandy if they would chill the fuck out, to be blunt. science is not without it's troubles either, wmds, using humans as guinea pigs, but most of what science has done has been a benefit. show me 1 fucking bible thumper or holy roller of any faith that is even 1/2 the person Norman Borlaug is, I challenge you, it cannot be done. http://en.wiki pedia.org/wiki/Norman_Borlog

Spiritual understanding is a real thing - the fact that you don't believe or understand what I'm talking about does not make it any less real. I would have to say the starting point for such a conversation would be understand what utter holiness means. VERY funny page, BTW.

Come on Holy Rollers, show me one of your faith, a Pope, Prophet or Pupil that can match the acheivements of Dr. Norman Borlaug, look at his honors. The man saved the lives of over 2,000,000,000 people!!!!!! fuck your religious bullshit, because that's all it is BULLSHIT!! not one of you preachers has EVER DONE SHIT. I'll take Dr. Borlaug over Jesus any fucking day.

because I know by dudemandude	Mar 9th, 2008 02:04:52 PM
that Christians are lazy here we go, an abridge version of some of Dr. Borlaugs achievements, besides saving the lives of BILLIONS of people. In 1970, he was given an honorary doctorate by the Agricultural University of Norway. In 1984, his name was placed in the National Agricultural Hall of Fame at the national center in Bonner Springs, Kansas. Also that year, he was recognized for sustained service to humanity through outstanding contributions in plant breeding from the Governors Conference on Agriculture Innovations in Little Rock, Arkansas. Also in 1984, he received the Henry G. Bennet Distinguished Service Award at commencement ceremonies at Oklahoma State University. He recently received the Charles A. Black Award for his contributions to public policy and the public understanding of science. In addition to the Nobel Prize, Borlaug has also received the 1977 U.S. Presidential Medal of Freedom, the 2002 Public Welfare Medal from the U.S. National Academy of Sciences, the 2002 Rotary International Award for World Understanding and Peace, and the 2004 National Medal of Science. As of January 2004, Borlaug had received 49 honorary degrees from as many universities, in 18 countries, the most recent from Dartmouth College on June 12, 2005, and was a foreign or honorary member of 22 international Academies of Sciences. In Iowa and Minnesota, "World Food Day", October 16, is referred to as "Norman Borlaug World Food Prize Day". Throughout the United States, it is referred to as "World Food Prize Day". The Government of India conferred the Padma Vibhushan, its second highest civilian award on him in 2006. Dr. Borlaug also received the National Medal of Science the United States' highest scientific honor, from U.S. President George W. Bush on February 13, 2006. He was awarded the Danforth Award for Plant Science by the Donald Danforth Plant Science Center, St Louis, Missouri in recognition of his life-long commitment to increasing global agricultural production through plant science. Several research institutions and buildings have been named in his honor, including: the Norman E. Borlaug Center for Farmer Training and Education, Santa Cruz de la Sierra, Bolivia, in 1983; Borlaug Hall, on the St. Paul Campus of the University of Minnesota in 1985; Borlaug Building at the International Maize and Wheat Improvement Center (CIMMYT) headquarters in 1986; the Norman Borlaug Institute for Plant Science Research at De Montfort University, Leicester, United Kingdom in 1997; and the Norman E. Borlaug Center for Southern Crop Improvement, at Texas A&M University in 1999. In 2006, the Texas A&M University System created the Norman Borlaug Institute for International Agriculture to be a premier institution for agricultural development and to continue the legacy of Dr. Borlaug. The stained-glass "World Peace Window" at St. Mark's Cathedral in Minneapolis, Minnesota, depicts "peace makers" of the 20th century, including Norman Borlaug.[34] Borlaug was also prominently mentioned in an episode ("In this White House") of the The West Wing television show. The president of a fictional African country describes the kind of "miracle" needed to save his country from the ravages of AIDS by referencing an American scientist who was able to save the world from hunger through the development of a new type of wheat. The U.S. president replies by providing Borlaug's name. On September 27, 2006, the United States Senate by unanimous consent passed the Congressional Tribute to Dr. Norman E. Borlaug Act of 2006. The act authorizes that Borlaug be awarded America's highest civilian award, the Congressional Gold Medal. On December 6, 2006, the House of Representatives passed the measure by voice vote. President George Bush signed the bill into law on December 14, 2006, and it became Public Law Number 109–395. According to the act, "Dr. Borlaug Has SAVED MORE LIVES THAN ANY OTHER PERSON THAT HAS EVER LIVED, and likely has saved more lives in the Islamic world than any other human being in history." The act authorizes the Secretary of the Treasury to strike and sell duplicates of the medal in bronze. He was presented with the medal on July 17, 2007

Vergil, anything you refuse to accespt is jabberwocky? Enjoy the kool-aid. dudemandude, it states he "has saved more lives in the Islamic world than any other human being in history". Then if you believe the official story of 9/11, it's his fault! Just kidding. Acheivements of any man, while impressive, are nothing when compared to his Creator without Whom, none of his acheivements would have been possible. I look at that man's biography and remark, "Wow, God certainly used that man!" He may have an impressive resume, but without faith Christ, he's still destined to spend an eternity in Hell with Mother Teresa.

It's useless to argue with true believers of any stripe by trollkiller91	Mar 9th, 2008 02:20:28 PM
The fall back position is pompous declarations of you not understanding because you have not been choosen to understand. Look at Snomusic posts, he cites the bible and books by other nutjobs that believe the same nonsense he does. Then when he's called on his BS by other posters he tells them that they could not possibly understand because those posters aren't "chosen" or some such drivel. There is no difference among true believers. Be it a prosthletizing charismatic christian like snomusic or the well scrubed, blue blazer wearing, scientologist wierdos in Hollywood. Not a one. Although I know snomusic will say that he has the calling and is awash in the blood of the lamb and he KNOWS, but he only believes and then cite some bible verses like that means anything. The bible it was book written and assembled by men, just like the torah, the bagvagita, the quran or any other religious tract. PS. How do you put in paragraphs?

You clearly are deranged as Trollkiller, myself and others have so aptly pointed out in previous posts. There is no common ground with you, there is no REASON. THIS is why religion ferments violence. No where on Earth where religion has brought its "peace" is there said "peace." Religion brings war, famine, superstition, civil division, hatred, intolerance and cruelty wherever it rears it's ugly head. Where as, Dr. Borlaug brings food, hope, freedom, love and PEACE.

Movies that are great when you're twelve years old and go out with your pals and have a good time then go home and play some video games an forget about them. But none of them hold up, I know Emmerich made Stargate and Independance Day when I was a young teenager and I had a blast at both at the time, but never revisted them ,and when I did catch moments of them again recently they looked really bad to me.

athiests and thiests should stop arguing by systemsbroom	Mar 9th, 2008 07:53:44 PM
And I suspect that they would, if they would realize that they are really only debating where the burden of proof lies. Because you can't prove or disprove the existence of a spiritual aspect of reality, because it is by definition undetectable by physical means. Which would be fine, except this debate (and the concomitant debate as to which type of theism is correct) is a ruinous one that soaks up a lot human GDP. Which is why the best solution is to ignore the question and instead construct a society which has agnostic social and political spheres. Said society will never resolve the above debate, but it will (and has) done all sorts of wonderful things, like land people on the moon and figure out what DNA is and develop working anthropological, biological, geological, and cosmological histories that are very probably largely accurate. So, snowman and vergil, cut it out and let's focus instead on a question that can be resolved: Should Harry buy and read an English language style manual? (hint: he should).
We did cut it out by Vergil	Mar 9th, 2008 09:37:47 PM
...and thank you so much for bringing up such a painful subject. While you're at it, why don't you give me a nice paper cut and pour lemon juice on it?
Yeah systemsbroom by snomusic	Mar 9th, 2008 10:40:00 PM
what do you do for an encore? Pour sugar in our gas tanks while anally raping our mothers?* *[apologies to Kevin Smith, but that line is too good not to use]
This movie made 61 million over the weekend? by Mr Incredible	Mar 9th, 2008 11:45:03 PM
It will drop like a rock after all the bored people who spent money on this get the word out.

THIS MOVIE MADE 61 BC million! by skywalkerfamily	Mar 10th, 2008 02:37:50 AM

61 million suckers....i want my money back! by emphasize_the_tard	Mar 10th, 2008 03:20:43 AM

I have some relatives who lived through this by PaceSet	Mar 10th, 2008 03:52:48 AM
They said the film is accurate. Back off Emmerich everyone, he did his homework.
Harry, the forthcoming 'Speed Racer'... by Billy The Fish	Mar 10th, 2008 05:05:37 AM
...could, with the benefit of much charity, be classed as 'blissfully retarded'. This, however, is just plain awful. There was more plausibility in 'Ice Age 2'...

Waiting for the full trilogy: by CrichtonAstronut	Mar 10th, 2008 08:55:11 AM
10,000B.C.: the Quest for Pussy-- 10,001 B.C. Raiders of the Lost Pussy(or A Pussy Odyssey)--10,010: The Year We Tap Pussy. I'm only shocked to learn it's not historically accurate.
Seriouslty though the real problem I have by CrichtonAstronut	Mar 10th, 2008 09:21:22 AM
with Emmerish isn't that he makes cheesey popcorn eye candy. It's that nhe takes his cheesey popcorn eye candy too seriously. Like the Day After. If your gonna make a cheesey disaster own up to making cheesey dkisater movie. Don't slap the Global Warming label on it and pretend it's an important issue movie. That kind of thing just makes it harder to take Global Warming seriously. also in onee othe Stargate editions I heard Emmerish and co. spent the whole coommentary bitching about how the SG-1 series ruined their great franchise plans. Now I like the original Stargate movie, but get real. It was a fun popcorn movie it was not Lord of the Rings or anything fucking sarcred. Get a reality check, basic out adequastely handled. Also, the series came out years after the movie. If Emmerish couldn't get his sequal green lighted before the series came out it must have sucked beryond beliefe. Big effects action movie aren't that hard to sell in Hollywood. Case in point 10,000B.C. or the 90s pretty much the whole decade. the thing thing i like about Emmerish, sincerely. He only fucks up his own mythologies. He doesn't go around and fuck up other people's cool shit like Michael Bay did with Transformers.
10,000 BC - plus, M. Night's Next/Trailer ! by aerodude73	Mar 10th, 2008 12:04:15 PM
hello, saw this movie yesterday, and it wasn't great, it wasn't horrible--it was just, okay. yea, the trailer leads you to believe there will be more of the Sabre-toothed tiger, but both clips in the trailer are right after the other in the movie, then no more tiger. I agree, they should have used the tiger more, or at least in another scene or two at the least. "From the creators of Independence Day & The Day After Tomorrow", yea yea yea. Nice how they mention one great popcorn flick from what, 12 yrs ago(?), and a decent disaster one of more recent years---and NOT the glob of spit that was Godzilla, which would have been more telling to what we might be walking into. anyway, the Best part of going? Seeing the New Trailer for M Night Shamamalalaamamama's latest movie, of course with Mark Wahlberg--"The Happening", opening June 13. Looks Really really good. Spooky like his "SIGNS" was. Seems all the worlds' BEES (yes, buzz buzz bees) are disappearing, then thousands of people are dieing, but you don't quite see why (the bees? who knows), or how. --- Tagline: We've Sensed It. We've Seen The Signs. Now... It's Happening. Plot Outline: A paranoid thriller about a family on the run from a natural crisis that presents a large-scale threat to humanity.
Actually.... by RichieRich	Mar 10th, 2008 12:14:00 PM
...that review was right on the money. The first 30 minutes were horrible and when my brian finally turned to mush, I actually enjoyed the rest and had a good time. Sure the audience laughed at the wannabe godfather-sounding albino when it was probably a serious moment, but fuck it, I enjoyed it.
The religious debate by MovieWhore	Mar 10th, 2008 02:08:55 PM
By todays standards many things in the Bible would be considered ridiculous (like many of the verses that have been listed above) .. and yet it is in the Bible so zealots will eat it up … yet another reason I believe the Bible is just a book … a good book mind you … with a great message .. but just a book … live your life because you think it’s the right thing to do .. not because some book told you to do it … live it because its right not because you will be go to Hell if you don’t … that is why I am not religious because I believe you can be a good person – check that – a better person without it …
A Ka-Zar movie would be pretty cool actually. by Reel American Hero	Mar 10th, 2008 02:26:49 PM
At least then they'd be able to get away with crazyness such as people riding pterodactyls, and a lot more crazyness without having to even have people try to think of it as logical. It'd be pure entertainment if done right. It'd have something for everyone really, crazy dinosaur type action and a pet sabretooth tiger for the kids, a half naked dude running around for the ladies and fellas that are into dudes, and a scantily clad Shanna the She Devil for the guys and ladies that are into ladies. Everybody wins. Money is made, and the world goes around.
didn't see it by penguinblooz2	Mar 10th, 2008 03:36:39 PM
not gonna see it. made fun of my friends who did see it. they were bored. out their money. i went to a bar drinking with friends which is much more fun than going to most event movies nowadays ...
Harry... by ziggy5yrs	Mar 10th, 2008 06:13:37 PM
While I appreciate your general (and incredibly genuine) enthusiasm for sitting in a darkened theatre and being entertained, can you please try hating something? Just this once?
CrichtonAstronut: You have your dates backwards... by gerrylum	Mar 10th, 2008 06:51:11 PM
10,000B.C.: the Quest for Pussy-- 9,999 B.C. Raiders of the Lost Pussy(or A Pussy Odyssey)--9,989 B.C.: The Year We Tap Pussy. Remember, it's B.C., not A.D., unless you're talking about PREQUELS.
Good point always forget that by CrichtonAstronut	Mar 11th, 2008 04:24:34 PM
Course the last two wouldn't make much sense unless we went 9010 and 9001.
And that's a long time to wait especially for by CrichtonAstronut	Mar 11th, 2008 04:28:03 PM
a guy. We'd George and Jerry asking if he was Master of his domain.
Shanna the She Devil would be awesome by CrichtonAstronut	Mar 11th, 2008 04:29:37 PM
in a movie, and Ka-Zar to of course. And we otta have the Sabertooth tiger.
Roland Emmerich's gay by Buck Turgidson	Mar 11th, 2008 10:54:59 PM
No, really, he is gay (not that it matters): http://wcbstv.com/slideshows/g ay.celebrities.gay.20.228680.h tml?rid=25

Blissfully retarded? by BobbyBowfinger	Mar 12th, 2008 03:51:37 PM
No, it's just retarded. The only thing that might have made this crapfest watchable is if Camilla Bello wore a costume similar to Rae Dawn Chong's in "Quest for Fire" (ie: nothing but body paint).
hmm by slkboxrman	Mar 14th, 2008 12:24:05 AM
i always get confused with these off topic tangent conversations.....and im shocked theres a bible thumper in here... religion in any society and its individual interpretations are just a form of control...be good and u will be rewarded, be bad and u will be punished..i think like whoever said it earlier, the bible is just a book, just like the koran is just a book...and george carlin was right when he said religion is the biggest bullshit story ever told...and about 9/11 yes get over it........as for the movie, looks decent ....dont know if id spend money to see it in the theatre , might catch it online tho
Remember Godzilla? by Kevin the Nerd	Mar 14th, 2008 10:27:43 AM
I am enough of an old timer here to remember your rave review for Roland Emmerich's Godzilla. What is your deal with this guys movies?
THEY LEFT OUT THE ARK OF THE COVENANT by AMAZING_BIZARRO	Mar 15th, 2008 12:00:06 AM
This movie had everything but the ark of the covenant!!! Man, and everyone's teeth were soooo white. Skip this piece of crap and read CONQUEST OF NEW SPAIN by Bernal Diaz and you'll get a REAL adventure. Roland should just have made a movie about the conquest over the Aztecs since this is where he stole most of the plot. I hear his next film is 2012, the end of the Mayan calendar....yawn.
HARRY WAS BOUGHT OFF BY THE STUDIOS A LOOOOONG TIME AGO!!!! by AMAZING_BIZARRO	Mar 15th, 2008 12:08:04 AM

It could have been a masterpiece... by TheManBehindTheMask	Mar 17th, 2008 04:24:56 AM
Or maybe at least a good film if it was released in 1980 (with 80 special effects of course), but seriously...this film is just another prophecy shit film (enough prophecy shit in movie please!!!) that every twist of storie have been seen in other movies for ages! (some even in Emmerich ones!): Conan, Stargate, JP2: the lost world, Apocalypto, 300 etc.. takes all these movies and turn them into family sunday afternoon garbage... Emmerich said he wanted to do this film for 15 years...well even in 1993 it would have been difficult not to laugh at 10 000 BC.
dumbfcukereeoneone by I know your sister	Apr 4th, 2008 01:23:01 PM
Harry! You fat fuck! Find me at the crossroads of sell out and free tickets aren't worth it lane and I'll sell you back your soul. The briefcase is getting a little too full of souls to continue holding your fat one anyway. JUST SAY IT SUCKS COCK you can't have it both way. You peecee queer. "Well, It wasn't a masterpiece, but I was able to embrace it for what it was." You pretty much just said - sure he hacked up a bunch of people and raped a bunch of pumpkins but its not his fault, he was beaten as a child. FUCK THAT. I hate you.
Mammoth Ivory by Hat Man	Apr 6th, 2008 08:36:18 PM
I would agree with Harry on his review. This film is fun and/but dumb. I enjoyed it depite myself being a tedious intellectual. Just as Independence Day was like a big old labrador dog. Dumber than a box of hammers but lovable. Personally, I feel that more films could do with a token mammoth in them. After this film, there is clearly a lot of them looking for work. Merchant Ivory should change their name to Mammoth Ivory and put a mammoth (or even a mastodon) into their Jane Austen films. Imagine a wooly mammoth charging through one of the more emotional scenes of Atonement! I'd wake up for that.
Fucking retarded... by SenatorNado	May 23rd, 2008 10:59:34 AM
... so retarded, in fact, it may bring about our doom. Thank you, Roland. For reference: http://www.theendisnear.co.uk
