Good point. Saxophones and violins are very good for breaking over heads.

Huge fan of violence. I love it. Show me gore, show me realistic...show me a blend of both...I don't care, I love it.

Start blending it with sex and I'm sold. I don't like whips and chains...but I do like naked women feasting on beating hearts while the blood runs in streams down their exposed breasts.

I could go on.

Violence in movies is really gonna take off once they get this CGI animation stuff perfected, where you can't tell it's not real people.

Sex, too, I guess, but... violence...

What's interesting, though, is how far they've come on doing realistic CGI animation, but they're still using real people to do all the voices...

I feel like the real question here "Is the physical/material realm dominant over all other things or is there a metaphysical realm where violence doesn't matter?", and I tend to think that while there may be some metaphysical plane that is just totally beyond this one, from the perspective of that plane, the physical realm is the one that is totally beyond. And since I'm in the physical realm, and more comfortable with its existence than any other, I'm gonna say it's tops. And I like to hurt things.

i don't fight...
but i wouldn't call myself not violent by anymeans
somethings i do hold sacred
within' in all the differences of everyone
they steal the one thing that is true in all of us

if you control, how a man thinks...
you can control how he reacts to different things

in some cases, scientifically provin'
people get 'better' on placebo's
just because the belief of their sickness
is thrown by their belief in a pill
and/or another human being

if you are weak, so is your system

does that sound strong to you?
real-life massacres are not a joke
even if the movies would persuade you to think otherwise

(explosion pertty :::tear:::)

of course big mushroom cloud of death is pretty
it's different, not necessarily better

my vote would be an imbetween

it's called Silly Polls you handsome fellow

Hoblit · Post by **Hoblit** » Sat Jul 15, 2006 8:48 pm

Besides silly polls...

in general, humans are naturally violent. You can argue that you are not violent until you are blue in the face. You can argue that somebody else IS violent until you are blue in the face. Individually you can argue whether or not that person is violent or not violent until you are blue in the face. However, generally speaking, everybody is violent... just a different place on the spectrum of violence right?

This poll is just asking where you are on that spectrum. OF COURSE, it's only asking whether or not you enjoy VIEWING violence...and that my friend is ONLY ONE ASPECT of violence.

I enjoy VIEING VIOLENCE. I do not PROVOCATE VIOLENCE. BUT, given the chance to be violent having been PROVOKED...then I may sieze the moment to ENJOY BEING VIOLENT.

For now, I'll stick to VEIWING VIOLENCE. Besides, I'm a pussy.

not arguing, wether violence is or isn't natural...
cause of course it is, but even in viewing
i have a certain taste
i don't like seeing violence, just for the sake of violence
it depends on what it is

Only I know what this poll means.

Egg · Post by **Egg** » Mon Jul 17, 2006 12:18 am

Well, you guys are saying that violence is natural and so everybody is violent... therefore the poll must be asking where we fall on that violent to less violent spectrum. No. The poll is asking whether or not violence is tops. Therefore, the poll is asking if there is something that can top the entire spectrum of human existence. For example, God. Or some indifferent and unspeakable force that hardly notices our mortality while it goes about its quotidian business, a business which even in its banality stretches aeons that we cannot grasp.

Come on. Duh. Right?
