With or without religion, you would have good people doing good things and evil people doing evil things. But for good people to do evil things, that takes religion.

I cant think of any movies. I must have seen them all. There are a few that I'd like to see again though.
The only way I'd see an Opera is if it was a "best-of" special production.We need seperate human-only games for MP/PBEM that dont include the over-simplifications required to have a good AI
If any man be thirsty, let him come unto me and drink. Vampire 7:37

That would be the Met's annual Opening Night Gala. Tickets start around $200, IIRC.Tutto nel mondo è burlaComment

Shawshank Redemption: My favorite movie. See it.
Unforgiven: Great movie.
Movies I want to see: Godfather part I and II,
Blade Runner (more for the fact that is constantly referenced as an inspiration for stuff, than interest in the movie per se),
Casino Royale (my family got this from Netflix, didn't tell me.
),
2001: A Space Odyssey,
A Fistful of Dollars & A Few Dollars More (I like Clint, and The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly is my second favorite movie.),
Citizen Kane,
Raging Bull.You've just proven signature advertising works!Comment

I watched Taxi Driver when I was a little boy
The funny thing is that I remember covering my eyes at sex scenes with a very young Jodie Foster hooker.
I watched it again 15 years later and there were no sex scenes in the movie, apart from those porn theater scenes, so probably I imagined them.I need a foot massageComment

They usually don't let you have sex scenes with 12 year old girls.
BTW I thought Taxi Driver was a great movie.

Books are often better than the movies, but Blade Runner is simply a good movie. Cast aside your prejudices for once!"An archaeologist is the best husband a women can have; the older she gets, the more interested he is in her." - Agatha Christie

Jodie Foster's older sister was a body double for the riskier scenes in Taxi Driver (as well as The Little Girl Who Lives Down The Lane).Originally posted by Deity Dude

Well worth seeing if you keep in mind when it was made. A startling vision, not totally accurate but remarkably prescient, of a future we have now lived through.Originally posted by BlackCat
