That's pretty ridiculous, considering almost no one would choose the same nominees as you have.

Oh sorry sir. But I do believe your nominations were ****. Look, go ahead and post your nominations if you want, or pick your favs from mine. I don't matter. These were just some of my quirky little favs from movies: hense "Best phycotic rant".
And by the way: Deniro sucks he always plays the same tough as$ mobster, with 0 deapth. Your best action sequences and fight scenes are simply nullifying. And please do not put Chinatown Lawrence of Arabia and Dr. Strangelove in the same category as Saving Private ryan or the shawshank redemption.
No offense dude.



It was "Holden Pike" who posted those nominations...not me. Way to pay attention...says a bit about how flippantly you treat people, and their opinions, IMO.



Considering the source, no offense taken, Dude.

As Commish already corrected, you should really read more carefully. It was me, Holden Pike, who submitted his own list, and TWT Commish - who runs this site BTW, who told you your intention was "pretty ridiculous".

I happen to agree with him, but those weren't my words you were quoting, yet it was then my list you were "bitching me out" over.



I ain't gettin' in no fryer!
Hmmm, hey, wouldn't this thread do better in the Awards section??? Moving it there now.

Way to use that thesaurus TWT! But I believe that the belligerence you feel I'm sending you is simply my contentious attitude about movies coming through. Look, people, friends, I mean no harm. Nor any offense. Sorry if any offense is taken, and I hope we can all get along like good kids, in the future.
Have a good day, and a nice New Year.



I didn't use a Thesaurus...and I know using that word sounds arrogant, but it's not meant that way. It's just a very useful word. And yes, I'm sure there are no hard feelings.



Now With Moveable Parts
Oh! This is the Tyler from MV...I get it now...

No, I seriously doubt it. This is almost definitely a different guy...though I don't blame you for coming to that conclusion. I thought so at first, too.



Now With Moveable Parts
Really? Sounds like you two were old sparring partners...guess not. Guess it's just YOU being your "Leo-Snooty", self, T.



Naw, don't know this Tyler. The other Tyler and I have exchanged verbal blows before, though...and we no doubt will continue to do so...at least until the day he retracts those ridiculous comments he made about my web development abilities. Until that day, however, he'll always get on my nerves, most likely.

Arguing online is like competing at the special olympics, even if you win you're still retarded. So lets all get along folks. Happy new year!



a valid point no less.

Than why did you put Deniro in your votes I don't get it??

I'm not trying to start an argument but I don't get you telling Mr.Pike that he should put deniro in his list of votes but you can that doesn't make sense bud.

No offense dude.
LOL! So, let me get this straight - Mission Impossible 2 and Behind Enemy Lines are worthy of awards, and Lawrence of Arabia and Dr. Strangelove aren't? You seem to be quite a cineaste. A regular film buff. If I had to bet money, I'd say you hadn't seen half the movies Holden posted - but hey, I'm letting my own personal opinion get involved...Wouldn't want that to happen!

Hmm....How many De Niro movies have you seen?

How are those action and fight scenes "nullifying"?

Also, I don't get it - are you saying that Saving Private Ryan is a better movie than Dr. Strangelove, Lawrence of Arabia, or Chinatown?

I'm just trying to see where you're coming from.

No offense dude.
