and since when did you become movie critic of the year? if you don't like what the thread is about, why **** post? maybe i should start one of 'whos the biggest wanker on this board?'

you're either very bored and have nothing better to do with your life, or you're just taking a stab at me because i'm new here.

well, **** you guys.

dont worry - richey's just like that

tis all about perception really isn't it? some people realise that things are meant tongue in cheek, or are just a style of personality and no malice meant and so harsh posts are read as being amusing. however, if you don't know any of that then they are just read as harsh. thats the problem with forums. you don't have the advantage of hearing tone of voice, or seeing facial expressions to guide you as to the meaning of the words. and even if you actually know the person in *real life* and therefore understand their personality it is still very easy to misunderstand the context and meaning of their posts. there should be a rating thing at the bottom of each post with an out of ten score for things like intended humour, tongue-in-cheekness, anger etc!!!! would avoid a whole load of misunderstandings!

@ Paddy

you have been on the verge of doing something silly for a while now.. has it happened? was it as silly as you feared?

very true...

and though there's no rating, you can have a "message icon" smiley that indicates the general tone if your post... should you choose.

on the whole though i do believe that a slightly thicker than normal skin is required for forums and chat rooms in general...

you know, I used to think that about emoticons until a row with some guy on a forum ages ago. I'd been using the equivalent of the rolleyes icon in an intended affectionate, 'ee what u like but I luv u kinda way but apparently he'd been taking them as a 'christ, you're a dick, I know better than you kinda way' and therefore reading my posts in an entirely different way to the one that had been intended. scary huh? now I'm just really cautious all-round....

@ Panther......

Not just yet, plenty of time though i guess....


Paddy.

oooh, I dunno - life is short you know!

hey look, i never meant to offend anyone. yeah i get deffensive but thats just an instant reaction for me.

sorry for starting a thread and then telling you about the 'crap' films i like, but its just the way i am. i like cheesey, amusing films. i also wanna add edward scissorhands to that list

i agree most of them are crap, but i wasnt asking for the top ten best films ever, i was asking your personnal opinion. i dont give a s**t if your fave film is barbie nutcracker.. haha. okay, well thats going a bit too far.

but anyhow, its personnal taste.
