I've seen the CAPalert site a couple times - is this just one guy who goes out to see all these movies he hates?

It would be so awesome to follow around the guy who reviews all the movies for a day. The level of anger and sexual repression pouring out of this guy must be incredible. It's like an entire nursing home of angry bitter old people was concentrated and used to form this guy who sits in movie theaters and counts how many times they say the word "fuck".

I'll bet this guy is writing down the license plate numbers of people with those "Calvin peeing" decals for his future shooting rampage.

actually he's pretty much got the movie dead on. not that i agree that it shouldn't be seen, but rather seen by age-appropriate viewers.
"if you let your kids watch *Fight Club* don't be surprised if one day the influence of *Fight Club* hits them right in the face."
and that has been proven true by every n00b on this site.
but of course, my opinion is not a popular one. so yea, i'll just follow along like the rest of you and say
"yea man, damn those people for saying it's not a cool movie and that the fighting isn't realistic, i mean, me and my friend we broke each others noses after watching the movie, it was so cool dude, and yea, we laughed about it until we broke a finger and a jaw. but fight club is just a cool harmless movie that no one should speak against for fear of a 'real fight club' come kicking their ass..."

i have nothing to say about any of this.
Focus On The Family owns the town i live in, so we're made to feel guilty about every movie we ever see.
especially when one of my own family members works for them....
i'm accustomed to coming home from a movie and being told how evil and satanic (!!) and corrupting it is; at least i was, until i moved the fuck out on my house many years ago.

yes.
Focus On The Family. It's, uh... the third or fourth biggest Christian organization in America. Ever hear of James Dobson? He runs it, he's also written a thousand Christian books.
They are responsible for the shutting down of about three strip clubs in town, and also they are constantly on the look-out for inappropriate (sp?) billboards placed too close to schools. They're pretty anal, and although they have a few projects that i have to admit are pretty honorable, for the most part they're just so damn conservative it's made them blind.

I did a little searching on this site, found one of the big things on blasphemy was comparring Buddha or Alah or whoever to God. Strange, I always thought they were well-known to be GODs, just not the Christian God. Talk aboot close-mindedness.

Everyone is free to roam and believe what they want but there is seriously something wrong with the world when people can find defiance of God and perversion in Finding Nemo. I think I said this on another thread about CAP awhile back. Ah well.

FAWKERZ!

Technically you gotta ask his forgiveness, and these evil films kind of flaunt how evil they are by saying 'Fuck you god! What the fuck you gonna do about it!' Not exactly atoning for their sinful nature...

I don't know what it's like over in the US. But in Aus our R rating means that it's illegal to see the movie if you are under the age of 18, so it sort of kills the danger of kids watching this stuff and the point in reviewing a movie from the aspect of what effect it could have on your children. I mean, why isn't this guy reviewing porn movies? Oh wait. That's it. They're aimed at adults.

I have to say that I agree with trypdwyre, although a large part of my dislike of kids watching adult movies is that I hate it when I go to see what is clearly an adult movie and some stupid parent brings their kid and they start crying right in the middle of it.

Having said that, I saw Fight CLub when I was 15 and it certainly wasn't the most violent thing I'd ever been a part of. Incidently that's also about the time I settled down and stopped getting in fights....

people with such hindering comfort barriers certainly shouldn't be reviewing movies that shock them so much. It interferes with their work and is downright unprofessional.

"my experience tells me...." i dont think he can tell how stong they were hitting each other, or exactly where they were hit

"they all got up, shook hands, and hugged each other" isnt this what christians promote? forgiving each other and being nice to everybody???

funny he didnt mention the priest who gets into the club

noticed he says things like "man in underwear", "male anatomy", but nothing about marla's tees and ass flashes while she has sex with Tyler???

The W I S D O M thing is so stupid!!!

Portrayal of attempts to commit murder or suicide and deaths by police action or war are incorporated into Wanton Violence/Crime. And why is this? Is the police God???

Let's all send the guy hate email and porn pics, see what he does!!!!!

I think Johnny Cash said it best when he said something to the effect of (sorry Johnny for the paraphrasing): Real Christians are o'tay but the fundamentalists and those assholes who make money from waving their finger in the name of God, they suck.

maybe it's a penis that likes ass. Smile

that guy is an total penishead. what a blasphemist, how dare he spit out such blatant bullshit about The Holy Fight Club! even though i am SO against censorship, i'd still like to sew his (and others like him) mouth shut!

about kids watching stuff, well i am very against censorship, but if i had a, say 10 year old kid who wanted to see Fight Club, i would tell him/her that he/she is not old enough to see it. not because of the violence but because i remember when i was a mere ten year old, i didn't fully understand all of the movies i saw... and had i seen Fight Club then it would have been sorta ruined. so i would wait til my kid was mmm... maybe 17 cause that's how old i was.

i wouldn't censor my kids like that on other movies though, cuz everyone's different. my mom didn't want me to see movies like Copycat and such when i was a kid, just cause she didn't want to see them. and i missed a lot of good stuff as a kid cause she thought i couldn't handle it cause she couldn't.
so yeah, i wouldn't let my kid see something reeallly sick until they're at least 15. but i'd be much more leniant than my mom.

i saw fight club when i was like elevn (im thirteen now) and i loved and understood it, maby not as much as u, being 17 did, or whatever, but evrytime i watch it, i get it and love it more. to me, its the bible, and it wasmt ruined at all.
plus, if u tell ur kid not to watch something, they will, just because u said he shouldn't, u cant watch them 24-7, so its best to tell them why they shouldnt watch it and then let them make the decition. i think.
