    Are the "best" movies TRULY the best?

    I don't understand what you are asking, or saying. Of course nobody considers that list to be the list for best movies. Look at all the sequels on that list, when one film establishes a connection with an audience, they'll be more likely to see it's second part. And most sequels suck. Most of...

    The Dark Knight Revisited

    A major part of judging a movie is your first thoughts. This captivated millions, that still must be factored in. This movie had a mountain of hype to overcome and there was only a very small minority of people who didn't think it was any good. The plot was very good, the acting was solid...

    Green Day's Legacy

    They are definitely, at least, on the same tier as Pearl Jam. They accomplished as much in just the 90s, yet alone their continued success in the 2000s on. They have built huge followings on two different levels. They belong #2 only to Nirvana.

    Green Day's Legacy

    Looks should have very little, if nothing to do with it. They changed the basis of their style, and didn't miss a beat. The entire album is amazing and well written. This change didn't take forever to make, they made it and it worked right away. And the point you're making isn't a fair point...

    Green Day's Legacy

    Its a hard argument though, I think, because they were never in a rock era. Sure, I love A7X and Slipknot, but they haven't been able to cross the barrier yet, mainly due to genre, but to me that makes it more impressive for Green Day, because they've stood out to such a large crowd. So I agree...

    Green Day's Legacy

    They seem to be a love them or hate them group, but regardless of which side you take, everyone knows they've been extremely successful. In a pop-dominated era, they've injected rock and pop-punk into the bloodstream, pretty much the only band to do so recently. They have won 3 Grammys for best...

    Best live DVD!

    You bolded too much. LIVE singer. Most guys sound like crap live due to various factors, but he always sounds really good live. I didn't say best, just acknowledging he's well above average. By the way, Myles Kennedy might have the worst live voice I've ever heard.

    Avenged Sevenfold's New Album

    Some songs didn't feel complete, and a few of them sound too similar overall. Save Me could have great, but it didn't feel right. And I hated that stupid woman howling at the beginning of Victim, and there wasn't as many great guitar solos as they grew us used to. I agree, it wasn't perfect. But...

    The Mount Rushmore Of--Actors

    Nicolas Cage? I'm about to barf. He's truly a terrible actor. Anyways: Jack Nicholson- The Departed, About Schmidt, A Few Good Men, One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest, Batman... All major successes, all had tremendous acting performances by Jack. He's a polarizing figure and always demands your...

    Avenged Sevenfold's New Album

    Oh yeah, the CD was sick. Nightmare was nice, but probably not on the top half of songs. It was a very well put together album. God Hates Us was by far the best song on the album, not sure where its related to death metal, more so a hybrid of its Waking the Fallen and City of Evil days. Welcome...

    Best live DVD!

    This. The DVD was very well done. But Green Day wrote King for a Day, and Shout was written by the Isley Brothers. Other than that I agree. They are a great live band, and Billie Joe's voice has one of the best live voices I've ever heard.

    Mike Portnoy quits Dream Theater

    I really hope he sticks with AX7. He was great replacing the Rev, and his talents fit the band. At first he didn't commit long term because of DT, so this could be a huge break for AX7 nation if he decides to stay on as the official drummer.

    Marilyn Manson-The Most Controversial Musician in History

    Manson is definitely more controversial. Cooper is considered a classic artist now, and is well respected, and has come out and been open about his conversion to Christianity. He's a better musician, but everyone knew Cooper was an act, Manson, although BC doesn't think so, lives more of that...

    NFL 18 Game Season: Good or Bad Idea?

    I didn't cite a poll, yet alone try to use it as evidence. I was simply countering your unfounded claim that the entire NFL fanbase would welcome the change. Well, obviously not.

    My solution for the BCS drama

    Since BS took care of the rest.... Your example is the perfect example of dilution. Did you try to make yourself look that stupid? They lost a game, so giving them another chance would mean the one-loss suffered wasn't a crucial to its title hopes as it is now. The late season games between...

    NFL 18 Game Season: Good or Bad Idea?

    The VAST MAJORITY OF FANS IN THIS THREAD ALONE oppose it. Fans on every football MB i'm on, as a whole, do not support it. The players don't support it. You wouldn't get a tune up if your V8 car was getting 90 mpg, would you? The NFL is as popular as ever, why screw it up? I don't care about the...

    My solution for the BCS drama

    You have about 2-3 really hard games every year, lose 2 of them from a power conference, you'll likely be in the top 8. If you can't win the majority of your tough games what gets you in ahead of 9-16? It's pointless. Its a waste of time for everyone involved, and would dilute the greatest...

    NFL 18 Game Season: Good or Bad Idea?

    If they were powderpuff the Lions would be beating up on them every year. They've been .500 over the last two seasons, and went to the Super Bowl 4 years ago. Holy crap, stop talking like an idiot, you can't be that off. Dude, you asking me to go in circles. Re-read my posts, I explained...

    NFL 18 Game Season: Good or Bad Idea?

    They did not suffer, at the same time, they were not the most popular sport when they made those changes. It is perfect as is. I don't understand your first line though, what part is that in response to? And the Bears are not powderpuff, period. They are not Super Bowl contenders, but they...

    My solution for the BCS drama

    There are not 8 teams who deserve to be champion. That nixes 8 teams. This is the most popular compromise, the plus-1, and i'd be okay with it, but its still not perfect. You still have the same issue, small schools can play against San Jose States all year while others have to go through the...
