Thank you for injecting actual facts. I know those are unwelcome by many posters here, but some enjoy them.

Exactly. The 20 something generation are a bunch of whiney, needy, losers just like Podesta said. He finally got one right.

Some fine movies, though, especially Django.

I've only seen 5 of the 8; will Daniel still like me?

The reason for the recent spike in Canadian immigration is the election of a completely ******ed Prime Minister.

DJango was a terrible movie on so many levels. i guess if you're a millenial and havent seen a movie before 2010, you might think its the best thing ever.

Or if you're way too old to be a millenial and have seen hundreds (thousands?) of movies before 2010, you might still get a lot of enjoyment out of it without it being close to the best thing ever.

Seems like I've helped take us on something of a tangent - sorry to the Daniel haters (or fans); I'm sure you can find something new to post about him and get things back on track.

By you posting this as evidence or fact shows just how delusional you are. Also proves to me you are 10000% not as smart as you think you are. I can automatically assume you were never in any top percentiles as far as academics.

The fact that you actually think posting this made a point on your side is absolutely hilarious. Do you really need me to break it down for you? or do you now see how exploitable this spot was for me?

I've been a film fan since childhood and love both old and new movies, it's just my own humble opinion but I thought it was junior high level revenge porn.

or as the review in Sight & Sound put it:

"All this is not to say that Tarantino doesn’t have the right today to address history’s rankling grievances, but what’s sorely missing in Django Unchained is any sense of vital engagement with history – that, and vitality itself. As Django betrays such cooing pleasure at cartoon violence directed against whites, it’s hard to take its outrage at hot boxing and unleashed dog attacks against slaves seriously – in Basterds, Tarantino at least knew that depicting Auschwitz was beyond his range. The horror that Django Unchained expresses isn’t of slavery, finally, but of a filmmaker attempting historical tragedy while shackled by his own supercilious persona."

I reject Daniel's cartoon vision of the United States electorate but I've been a fan for years and continue to be. I think he's a great poker player. Before my mom passed he was absolutely her favorite TV player. Please understand that not all of us who object to/ridicule his twitter tantrum hate him.

Makes a lot more sense to continue this discussion over in the NVG Politics thread, so that's where I'll post my reply in a bit.

I'm also a fan of both old and new films, and I can completely get how someone wouldn't like Django. If you're looking for great social commentary, it's certainly the weakest of those films, at least the 4 that I saw (made an error - I own but haven't yet watched 12 years), and it's pretty tough to directly compare it to films like Mississippi Burning or American History X (loved them both). But I still found it very entertaining. Also, it's the one I've seen most recently, and given my memory, my judgement may be coloured by that.

Oh yeah, I get it - that was meant to be a throwaway description; my point was I didn't want to derail further from whatever we consider this thread to normally be.

Recently all his tweets over a 24 hour period were about poker and it appeared that his Election insanity/cognitive dissonance had passed, but the diaper is back on today as he's gone full-on SJW/butt-hurt whining suck. Sad.

I used to be a fan (many years ago), but his tweets make him sound like a bitter, sad, and pathetic person. I guess that explains his need to join a cult.

Apparently Daniel wired $50k to SHRPO and when he got there they didnt release the money and he couldnt register for the event.

I don't get it though. Did the series just rob him off $50.000? Or did he eventually get his money back but failed to enter the tournament?

Apparently, he wired $100,000 without his name as the account holder which, apparently, is not good enough to transfer to an individual at the receiving end.

He was refused the money, at which point, the crybaby threw a temper tantrum, and he said that he was not going to participate in the tournament, and that he would never go back to that casino.

To be fair, the casino should have tried to sort it for him. There was a time a high profile player meant something...nowadays they treat everyone as a degen.

His 'cult' is no better or worse than yours. Cults in general are bad for society and inhibit free-thinking. And yes, I know exactly what 'cult' you are part of. It is not hard to figure out based on previous posts.

Well, aren't you clever! it's pretty simple to figure out what cult you're part of too, and your's is the worst of all.
