read the books a few times, saw the movies, both versions.. i don't get
bothered by the things like toys made from movies.. anybody ever bought anime
plushies? yeah.. okay those are low budget crap shows compared to Peter Jacksons
films... 3 years to make those movies.. or was it more i forget.. @ least 3. If
you don't like the figurines i see that a silly thing to bitch about. The
integrity of the film is not bs, 13 Academy award nominations for just one..
many more when all 3 are combined, best picture of the year for Return of the
King.. be sick of it all you want but i really don't think it is
"over-hyped". It definately is a milestone in movie history (the
trilogy). The games btw are very good in my opinion, several different style
games all loaded with good stuff, go read some reviews for the
"official" games. anyhoo in the end, everybody is intitled to their
opinion.. i just hate when ppl aren't logical. We are all part of society, deal
with it, these films will be remembered forever.. will you be remembered?
now if only i were to be soo "hyped" lmao
i believe some of mine were deleted because i didn't link to the original scans,
i removed a LOT of bad crap from the scans i used, and took several hours to do
so.. getting an automated PM pisses me off, i'd like to know how somebody knows
that a wallpaper did not take much time if they did not see the original scan...
blah
Quote by harrmdYeah, Halifax NS really
sucks. We have only three comics/specialty
shops, only two are of any good, and all they sell is licensed anime,
no imports. Too bad we don't have a China Town, huh?
Halifax actually had one small anime specialty store a few years back,
but it went out of business because of poor sales. I've been up to
Toronto and Montreal, Montreal was okay but I could die happy if I
could shop around in Torontos China Town all the time, they had
everything.
I know of Strange Adventures.. but could you drop me the name of the other anime
shop here in Halifax???
lol, jeeze.. yes it didn't take long, BUT why does that matter, i wasn't wanting
to change the scan much, i saw it, thought it looked good but needed a little
more, personally i like simple wallpapers sometimes, too many times ppl over-do
them to the point it friggen hurts your eyes
since when is plain bad? i've seen some shitty wallpapers, this one is one of
the few of my OWN that i really like... i have a friggen fine arts degree.. but
yeah.. ur right, plain and simple.
The wallpaper you have submitted was either too blurry, over filtered (i.e. an
standard image or screencap with a few filters over it), or otherwise felt
unsuitable. We only accept wallpapers where the members make a true effort to
submit quality works for critiques and advice.
i put my hands on a lot of food... does that count? =P

lmao.. sorry somebody had to do it..........
yeah u can trash this if you want. lol, i'm silly
......................................................................
i do have to admit that the borders of anime are blurring, i do believe US
studios and Korean studios especially make good anime (see Oseam), however they
are keeping true to the stylistic properties that is anime, the big eyes, the
high detail, the pan shits all the good ol anime nuances.
Smokers are often respectful of other ppl, i know i am. i have a right to do to
myself whatever i wish, also yeah 2nd hand smoke.. even though there is NO
scientific proof that it kills most ppl think it does.. c'mon i know i don't get
high when i am around ppl smoking pot and not smoking it myself, the smoke
coming out of a persons lungs is filtered. anyhoo.. like i say smokers should be
respectful, but @ the same time ppl need to f'n respect us. a lot of us don't
like the habits we have, and being ridiculed and looked down on because of it is
cruel..
..yeah smokin will kill you slowly right.. well i am healthy, and NOT
overweight, what about eating till your too fat to walk properly? is that not
one in the same? you don't see smokers going up to overweight ppl and saying
"ya know being that fat will kill ya" .. do ya now.. it's not socially
acceptable. I don't think that it shoudld be acceptable to treat smokers like
crap either, be it Cigarettes, or pot (which is less harmful, and i am not a
user my parents are..for 30 years and nobody would know if i didn't tell them
=P)
soo yeah, rant about us dirty smokers, but realize, when you treat us like shit,
we lose respect.. and i'd much rather respect ppl who don't smoke and leave the
room when i need a quick puff, than smoking in front of them for spite.
i think it is "ghosts in shellS" :P
lol, it's a well done series.. but then again i'm a hrdcore masamuniac (lmfao)
yeah, i like Shirow Masamunes stuff... and no there isn't such thing as a
"Masamunic" i just done made that there one up =) pretty tuff huh
Shirow Masamune.. in my opinion
- Dominion Tank Police
Black Magic M-66
Ghost in the Shell
Appleseed
^anime & mangas
then there are his amazing posterbooks and calendars.. a bit hardcore..hehe and
i love it.
Mayazaki is also good, he is the Walt Disney of the anime world to me.
fantastic post rknight1 i agree with ya totally about "Prayer and
meditation can be combined" i think you may have helped Noeru a lot there
=) a lot of info!
i see them as being the same thing. Both are the practice of focusing ones mind
on one intangable concept, and trying to make positive effect in the real
world.
i saw a very very interesting examination of the healing effects of prayer and
meditation on the show "The Nature of Things" , possibly you could
find a transcript. It showed statistics proving that when ppl were sick if they
had others praying for them they were more likely to become healthier (i
simplify, trust me it was well documented)
I'd love to hear more explination as to why your prof. believes that prayer and
meditation are two different things. Many religions use "prayer" and
many use "meditation", overall trying to reach the same goals, though
in some more christian religions it is more about "i want" than
"it would be if it should be".
Meditation to me is the act of being @ one with yourself and your environment,
and prayer is about sending positive emotions to help others (or yourself) those
would be the simple ways to pull them apart, though i think that is silly to do.
I see more similarities between the two than differences. power of the mind,
connectivity between ones self, others and the world around them. Using ones
aura, chi or spirit to cause other spiritual changes in other people... this is
a huge topic, and a great one.
and again.. i think your prof. is a bit off if he thinks prayer is only
religious, may people who do not consider themselves "religious" pray,
and sometimes more often that "religious" ppl. And likewise, many
people who meditate are strong believers in doctrine and their faith and very
religious.
