If it's crap... We'll tell you
I Am Not Among Peers (please don't read this, you will find nothing of value)
DISCLAIMER: There is absolutely no reason anyone but myself (and even then I probably won't) should ever read this. I'm not exactly sure what the point of posting it was in the first place....
I'm not sure why I'm writing this and I don't believe and somewhat hope nobody reads this, but I've been looking reading the comments on several posts today and noticing that I don't seem to agree with almost anyone on this website. While realizing this, I've also noticed that I rarely seem to agree with anybody in the League, almost never agree with anything said during Let's Do This, and have just about the same in common with A Couple of Cold Ones. I usually seem to agree a little bit more with Carlyle on movies but I've been known to side with Leon on occasion (thank you for being the one to argue against that dreadful retch Forgetting Sarah Marshall last year). Really this site just seems to be a bunch of liberal Tim Burton-hating Megan Fox-loving Judd Apatow-watching crazy people who don't know how to use spell check. Now that I'm 21 I'm probably older than half of the people on here too.
So what does all of this mean? Well for starters if anybody reads this I'll probably get my ass kicked, but more importantly it means that I just don't seem to fit in here. The thing is that I can't leave. Spill might as well be another name for a type of drug because I've tried leaving this site at the very least five times and every time I end up coming back. Is it because I have no friends and listening to other people talk about things I am interested in puts a psychological Band-Aid on that wound for an hour or two at a time? That's my guess, and I don't doubt that would help ween me off this site. Maybe I'm just growing up and realizing that I need more than this site to fill that part of my life. It really just feels like I've been hanging out with people who have nothing in common with me other than their love of movies and I'm just now deciding I need new friends.
These last couple of paragraphs have been a good bit of therapy for me, but I still don't know what to do. On one hand I think I should probably pay less attention to Spill and focus more on my own social life, but I have absolutely no idea how to do that (and believe me, AS doesn't help). I live in a town of only about 1,500 people, so my chances of finding somebody that is enough my equal could be rather difficult. Along with that, most of my interests would fall under what are described as "liberal arts," which does tend to reflect on political beliefs, and being a conservative only complicates the situation. All of this mixed with me not driving, being out of school, and having virtually nowhere in my knowledge to "hang out," I'm pretty much stuck here in my room on my computer just like any normal geek. Wow, I'm actually making myself feel more pathetic than usual.
Anyway, my mind is starting to wander at this point (another problem I have) and being tired doesn't help. I don't know what to do at this point, so if anybody does happen to read this and does happen to have any advice, I suppose I will have no choice but to accept it graciously. Other than that this is feeling more and more personal as time goes on. I probably shouldn't post it, but there goes my cursor down to the button.
And before I leave, seriously, I haven't heard a single good thing about Megan Fox's personality, she's not a good actress and anybody who finds her physically attractive has very different tastes in women than myself.

Four points.
1) Personally I think that Burton has run his course. There's nothing new in his look. (Color-scheme, set designs, costumes, make-up choices) to a movie, and they all seem to be based in the exact same universe of goth kids and emo types. Is that a bad thing? Noticing it isn't a bad thing, but having a director that seems to be stuck in that type of format IS a bad thing. So, there's at least a justification of how people feel about Burton.
2) Judd Apatow can suck my left nut. I despise his movies. I've yet to see one that I actually enjoyed enough to see a second time. And what's worse, they are more like extended Saturday Night Live skits than actual reasons to do a movie. (And yes, I'm fully aware that I'm going to get bashed for that... BUT BRING IT ON)
3) Being a conservative in a "liberal" world? I feel you pain on that one. It's a sad thing that people's political views are constantly being bashed as "wrong" or "extremist" when you've always been the type that wanted personal responsibility and caution. Being a conservative is possibly the only thing that will bring the sanity back to politics, if only we could have a real conservative in office that isn't automatically hated by half the population BECAUSE he/she is conservative.
4) Megan Fox? Well, personally I know that Chig Champa and myself (with a few others) have been going on for awhile about how we don't understand why people still want to see her in a movie. We haven't seen anything that is close to being an actual "acting" ability. And honestly, if you are just looking for the 'pretty girl' then buy a damn magazine. I'm looking for ABILITY TO ACT when someone calls themself an actor, and I'm looking for the ability to IMPROVE their skills by taking on different types of movie roles. So far, the ONLY THING that I've seen Megan Fox do is stand there and look cute. And even that's getting OLD. As far as not being your type? I understand that too. No one wants to mention the fact that she's getting TOO skinny and looking unhealthy, that she's got an oval face that isn't proportional, NOR does she have that great of a top on her. She's merely eye-candy, and that's all. I can see eye-candy in a PORN and get better acting than what I've seen Megan Fox being able to do.
As far as Charlize as Catwoman? Maybe 5yrs ago, but she's pushing it now. Not "young" enough to hold onto that type of character for long. Besides, I want to see a red-headed Catwoman. =P

So...let me get this straight....you're a non-driving, non-college going, no social-life having, 21yo conservative?
No, I should hope that you don't have many peers, I wouldn't wish such a life on anyone, lol.
I'm usually not so mean, but....just....dude.
You know what? You might wanna follow that initial instinct and take this post down.
...just sayin'
