Chronicles Of Riddick is a pretty good movie

Odradek · 2013-08-12 15:19:16

This is objectively true, and you are going to have to accept it.

Fossilmaiden · 2013-08-12 15:30:03

Now, if the thread title replaced movie with video game, then I might be able to agree with you. As it is, though, nah.

Sredni Vashtar · 2013-08-12 15:44:33

Never say "objectively" when speaking of the quality of a work of art.

The joke is that I'm acting like my unpopular opinion is some primordial fact of life. I realize this is only funny to me.

You all be taking an Odradek thread too seriously. Especially one that says "objectively" in it.

nohaynicklibre · 2013-08-12 15:54:51

It's literally an objective fact that ponys are shit :D and anime.

I was being deadpan and unnecessarily serious (albeit expressing a genuine opinion of mine) in order to provoke a humorous response and initiate an absurd back and forth. I don't think that it worked...

and anime what

Salix Babylonika · 2013-08-12 16:24:45

it's obviously a typo of "D:". He is dissatisfied with the quality of the portable hard drive on which he keeps his anime.

glennmagusharvey · 2013-08-12 16:33:04

but D: is a built-in optical drive

Are you driveist and opposed to non-partitioned drives? Is that your stance? Hmm?

glennmagusharvey · 2013-08-12 16:37:47

no you'd use A: or B: for that because no one has diskette drives anymore

Justice4243 · 2013-08-12 16:50:54

Huh...I wasn't aware this was widely regarded as a bad movie. I thought it was pretty decent.

Justice4243 · 2013-08-12 17:06:30

Might have helped that I watched this before Pitch Black, so I wasn't particularly disappointed when I watched a Space-Opera and not sci-fi horror.

MetaFour · 2013-08-12 17:39:28

I wasn't aware that anyone cared enough about The Chronicles of Riddick for it to be widely regarded as anything.

I mostly remember The Chronicles of Riddick being pretty weird. Not terrible by any means, just weird.

Justice4243 · 2013-08-12 17:57:48

I agree.

According to many critics, this made the move hard to follow without commentary, but I never though the movie really lacked proper explanation for what was going on. I just sort of accepted the Riddick universe was a bit more esoteric than the average Sci-fi universe.

glennmagusharvey · 2013-08-12 19:18:45

Oops, I haven't seen this movie either.

Sredni Vashtar · 2013-08-12 20:26:11

I would like to see it. What I've heard about it strikes me as pretty clever for a big-budget science-fantasy flick.

Aliroz · 2013-08-13 00:10:55

It is an objective fact that I want to beat up people who disagree with Odradek.

Especially when beating people up is this pretty:

Look, sometimes there is time for reason and calm discussion. That is bad times. Sometimes there is times for HONOURABLE FISTICUFFS. That is good times.

Please don't take my one advantage over the wise. As a fool, I really need it.

glennmagusharvey · 2013-08-13 00:35:12

I hear that The Fool gets luck bonuses or something.

No, that was seventh edition. This is Ninth Edition. Now The Fool gets endurance bonuses instead of luck.

glennmagusharvey · 2013-08-13 00:57:23

What are you talking about? The latest edition is fifth!

Aliroz · 2013-08-13 15:39:14

I'm talking about M-WNCD9E.

And if you don't know what it is, I certainly won't tell you.

Aliroz · 2013-08-13 15:39:59

I mean, really, it's a great series.

glennmagusharvey · 2013-08-13 15:41:10

Is it My Wagical Nine-CD 9-tray Exchanger?

Aliroz · 2013-08-13 15:42:54

No, that would be M-WNCD9TE, with a T.

glennmagusharvey · 2013-08-13 15:44:52

no it's a t not a T

Aliroz · 2013-08-13 15:46:00

Still. Nope.
