My, that's quite a stuffed Strawman Fallacy you have built up right there! Mind quoting me on where I said "other people are swearing, therefore it's okay to swear" or anything to a similar effect? It would be quite a shame if you went on beating that strawman and got nothing for it.Dancingman said:
And btw, quoting Yahtzee wasn't meant to be an ad hominem against you, but merely served as a rhetorical device against your apparent endorsement of internet censorship.
There are a few explanations that I've heard. The first is that each movie and book is just a story out of what 007 did in his life, and they aren't told in any specific order. The other one says that they are a lot of different people, and that James Bond is just a code name, which someone takes on when the previous one kicks it. The latter explanation does explain the personality differences between the films quite well.Terry576 said:
He wasn't probated for that post, and if you really don't like the website so much that you feel you need to insult it, no one is forcing you to stay. He wasn't probated because of what he said, but how he said it.team star pug said:
I liked the movie as well and will try to answer those questions. 1.)One or both were lies invented to inflict the biggest psychological effect based on the situation. 2.)He hired henchmen to do it just like with the bank robbery at the beginning. 3.)I dunno...maybe with there being so many people in the police force the others probably assumed that this was just another officer that they didn't know yet and had gotten the scars during the line of duty. I mean, being a cop is one of the most dangerous in America. It's 3rd after being a taxi driver and convenience store clerk. 4.)Because Harvey Dent was a good role model for the community and Batman is viewed as lawless vigilante. Therefore, if Harvey kept the heat then the progress that had been made up to that point would be tarnished. 5.) Well, that's how movies are...the same logic behind beating 1 ninja is SO much more difficult than defeating 100. At least, that's how I see it.The Seldom Seen Kid said:
Edit to #5) I misunderstood. Of course it is more difficult to defeat 10 guys over 1 or a dog, have you ever fought against more than 1 person? It is WAY more difficult than just 1. I've had that experience in a real fight and in an unscripted backyard wrestling match. Against 1 person, you have only 1 person to focus on (which is tough in a fight since there are many different things they could do). You multiply the number of people and you have to try to split your focus because you don't who will attack from what angle, how, and (thankfully this only happened in the BYW match not real-life) with what weapon? Getting a surprise hit with a steel chair or barbed wire wrapped bat seems to sting so much more than one you're expecting.
This age difference would be due to the chronological mess-up of the films. Casino Royale is the first book, but the second most recent film. James Bond's life in the service is a long one, and the things he sees start off disturbing him, weathering him, and eventually, he just accepts it and moves on to be his natural suave self. This explains the personality fluctuations.reg42 said:
I suppose that's true. But you could say that the MI6 look for specific personality types to fill the role of 007. I dunno, it's just something I heard a while back. I'm not even a huge fan of Jame Bond, so I'll find it difficult to defend the point properly.swolf said:

I apologize if this has been dealt with in the four pages of this thread I didn't read because it had gotten redundant and boring.JaredXE said:
One thing about the Harry Potter movies that sets them apart from a lot of other adaptations, is that they take for granted - for better or worse - that you've read the books. Now personally, if I know a movie version of a book is coming out, I will generally read (or reread) that book before I go see it.
Never anywhere else but HP is this behaviour as rewarding.
Let me put it plainly, I seem to be rambling: the HP movies were made for fans of the books. Book fans don't need the entire plot explained because we've memorized the 300+ pages that Rowling gave us, and we're just at the movie to see what we've been thinking about in our heads put on film. For the most part (again, MOST PART), the movies are faithful adaptations, and any plot holes in them aren't even noticed by fans of the series because they can fill in the blanks with what they know happens in the book.
that AI wasn't operating on only cold hard logic... there was emotion behind it. It wants humans to suffer... the only reason you would build such a battery system instead of going nuclear is to compound on human suffering.JaredXE said:
To be honest I have no idea why I said that. I was tired, I'd finished an exam about an hour before, and now I'm sitting in university at 1:30am at a computer trying to pull an all-nighter so I can revise for another exam tomorrow morning, and not miss it by oversleeping, and I've been confuzzuling myself having crammed so much maths into my head recently. Basically, disregard my original comment about the butler being outside. He definitely wasn't, he was in the room, and I confused myself earlier.Irridium said:
