I wonder why it is so important for some here to constantly glorify this score or this film.

Voice your opinion once, sure. Debate with sound arguments. Absolutely. Some here do that, and it is wonderful.

But those who again and again heckle with positivity - what is your intent? Will you only be satisfied when everybody in this thread loves the score and the film?

Good examples are the zillion postings of this AdoKrycha007 - fanboy...

This score is great to write fiction work to. Final Ascent gets me right in the feels. I love the harmony of No Time to Die being used throughout the track. A beautiful seven minutes of music.

Hehe, excellent response. Apparently multiple posts from the same board members praising the score are fine (despite saying nothing new) * but the same doesn’t apply to people who dislike the score. Funny that. And even when a negative opinion is explained, it seems to me that certain people will just attempt to denigrate that justification, and the opinion, suggesting it to be worthless, or ill-infomed. To be honest a very small contingent of people actually seem to be more obsessed with doing this than actually talking about the score or the film.


*For the record, I have no issue with this. I always have the option to scroll on through if I don’t like a particular post.

Edit: I particularly scroll through posts from one particular person who thinks he is oh so superior but who I consider is just a poster boy for legalisation of abortion. I could just block the little flea but he really isn’t worth the effort and its also really funny to see how I live rent free in his little brain - it’s also just easier to zip past his vexatious little comments if I’m not in the mood for his little hissy fits - wipe him away, if you will. After all, isn’t that what one does to wasted ejaculate?

Maybe some wokery in Bond movies will mean that Bond movies will no longer name females Pussy Galore. Blech.


All I can say is that it's just as well they stayed with Pussy Galore and Plenty O'Toole. And didn't mix them around like I heard. wink

I find it's a unique mixture of confirmation bias and toxic positivity.
It's also some of what is called "splitting".

But, on we go.

It is not splitting if one wants to stop the constant negativity and cussing („waste of sperm“).

I don‘t like everything about this score, and I am not a huge fan of Zimmer.

But why is it considered better (and funnier) to constantly enter a thread to pour hate onto something? If some here love this score, why is that toxic?

Hate is toxic. And those who normalize it with a kind of schoolyard bullyism might think they are the victim here when being called out for their behaviour.

They actually are the perpetrator.

Everything you've just said could be applied to yourself.
Think about it.

But I'm not going further with this in a Zimmer thread.
Frankly, his work no longer merits the attention.

Ping-pong strategy, sure.

But your last sentence says everything one needs to know why you and a loud minority here is trying to derail threads.

Right back at ya, babe.
You should remember that I was not responding to any of your posts in the first place.
And I won't have any discussion who takes art criticism personally.
It's a comprehension deficiency that I won't enable anymore.

Excellent response which I suspect is far too intelligent for the person you aimed it at to understand. You’re talking to the deaf unfortunately. You’re trying to argue logically with hypocrites who throw stones in glass houses built on a moral high ground, who insist they just want positivity and rainbows and unicorns and that anyone who is negative is the spawn of Satan. People who pretend they respect polarised views to their own but then label any contrary opinion as “ridiculous” (that’s an exact quote from a particular placental expulsion here in a response to an opinion I voiced about Bond). People who think their shit smells of cinnamon and rose petals and that they know so much more about movies and movie music than mere scum like you and me. People who don’t seem to realise that the things we talk about here are subjective and that there is no wrong or right opinion.

Don’t worry, it was pretty clear to anyone who can measure their IQ in integers…. Might be confusing to one or two people here though; those starved of air at birth and those who’s parents threw away the baby and raised the afterbirth like one particular waste of ejaculate I could name but won’t - I already live in his mind rent free as it is without giving him even more stress.

But for 99.9% of the perfectly reasonable and respectful people here, it would have been very clear and entirely reasonable and understandable.

While I would not go quite that far in describing our esteemed opposing colleagues, there have been many occasions where I felt that shoe fit pretty well.
But I just never saw the point in getting personally riled by someone disliking something I liked.
Why the reverse would be true is anyone's guess.

Sometimes the temptation to poke some fun is too hard to resist, though.

Seriously - why go on like this? Accusing someone of having an IQ that can be measured in integers, and being starved of oxygen at birth? And then piling on even further by calling them a waste of ejaculate and a "raised afterbirth"?

You're not even clever - those are old, tired, unoriginal jokes and insults.

And lets assume you are correct, that your "opponent" has a lower IQ than you, and was literally starved of oxygen at birth. And lets say you have an IQ that's higher than the person you are arguing with. If so, those are literally matters of sheer luck. You did not choose the brain and IQ you were born with, nor did you choose the circumstances of your upbringing. Neither did your opponent. And, assuming you were born with the exact same brain and were exposed to an identical upbringing, you would literally BE that person, and would be taking the identical position.

You can't take credit for sheer happenstance and luck. You are not in the slightest responsible for your own IQ and mental abilities. If you are truly smarter, it's ridiculous to take credit for it because you did not create your own brain. Neither did the person who you might think is not on your mental level.

So, either you are beating up on someone who was not *born with* your mental abilities, which makes you a bully beating up on someone wasn't born with your (supposedly) elevated mental status, or you are simply being needlessly crass and insulting with someone you disagree with.

I don't see the same "assholiness" directed toward you. So what are you getting out of this? Why continue it?
