They like to front the advance, which you spend, then when the movie tanks they come for what they paid you and don't pay the back end so you get maybe 5 cents on the promised dollar.

The other favorite trick is to act like they will pay you but then create a similar (but not too similar) script and make the movie without paying you a dime.

Some of those Hollywood folks are some damn sneaky bastards.

Back in the 70's when a producer said "trust me" he had already stuck the knife in your back but you had not yet noticed.

In EKY "he needed killing" was a valid legal...etc etc. etc..

This sounds like what CheeseGrits wants people that read message boards to believe. Which is fine. Whatever.

This is the KFC thread though. What does CheeseGrits the human believe?

ANother way of asking would be, if there's life after death and you have to answer to your Creator for voting on a jury to kill someone, are you comfortable with that?

I believe "just needed killin" is a valid defense for an earthly judge as well as a valid defense for a outer worldly judge. While personally I would rather defend life than take it, some folks just are no good alive. In a similar vein you put down the rabid dog not because you want to but because if left alive it will keep killing and that is no real solution for all involved.

Look, I am not going to just go out and kill folks but if my country called to pick up a gun to destroy the next Hitler, by God I pick up the gun. You can argue the plight of Arjuna in the Bhagavad Gita as a man confronted with the blood on his hands of the warrior until you accept that he was a warrior by God's design so to not be a warrior would be to not doing what God intended him to do.

In short, if I have doubt in my heart or mind I would have trouble ending the life of another but if the intent was clear and absolute and I was called to the task, I would do what I was supposed to do. Killing another human being (or animal or insect) is not hard, it is living with it that can lead to a downward spiral so make damn sure the first time the person needs killing (like Charles Manson) as you would a rabid dog.

Arkansas can't find enough witnesses for their 8 planned executions this year.

Litigator needs to step up and do his part to see that justice and the law are upheld. He took an oath.

In many places, and hopefully Arkansas, an oath means something.

Does that explain why you get two Wyatt Earp movies....or shitty movies about magicians...that come out at the same time?

For an industry that is supposed to be the outlet for our brightest creative minds they sure have been sucking air recently.

How else do you explain comic book heros and their exploits written 30 years ago doiminating the industry?

I prefer exile to the death penalty. If you frick up bad enough you are exiled to Somalia or some other hellhole. We'll drive you up in a gunboat and kick your arse onshore.

Money and Greed kills more than anything else in the end

If you grew up with the old B&W movies they paid good money to develop thespians and their actual craft. They also spent money on attire (Edith Head was awesome) and writers (because some actors are not that clever).

Now it is just remakes and explosions. Sadly, Star Wars was the beginning of the end but Eisner making 600 million for a years work at Disney and Perlman getting control of Marvel just to milk every last penny he could sent the industry into a cannibalizing death spiral. Now kids today watch reality shows (worse than even the worst B movies of old) so acting has gone to the dogs. Sound and color had taken the place of quality and dialogue and as corporations have replaced individuals in Hollywood (no more Mayer or Selznick) so groupthink by committee assures the lowest common denominator gets green lighted and good or original works get shelved.

If we have a Hannibal Lecter, I want to know he is dead as disco, as exile means he could still escape and keep killing.

When you're on a jury in a capital punishment case, there is no exile. The options are either death or life w/out parole. So lets pretend for a brief moment we arent competing for upvotes by seeing who can out cutesy cute with oh so cuteyness and pretend instead we are humans that could be summoned tomorrow to vote on whether another human lives or dies.

Are you comfortable with killing another human that poses no threat to anyone and for something that didn't even involve you? If so, instead of using the opportunity to cutesify some cutesy cuteness, maybe pretend you are explaining to your grandson why you did it. Or something real like that.

Dear Junior,

Charles Manson was a bad man and killed many people and encouraged more people to kill in his name. Case is clear cut and if released to the wild he would kill again and more importantly would encourage others to kill in his name. These were not crimes of passion or desperation but crimes of a sociopath and, like a rabid dog, needs to be put down as no way to fix what is wrong with him.

Love,

Paw Paw

Dear gramps,

But, "releasing him to the wild" wasnt even an option. Not sure how you were allowed to serve on jury without understanding this. The options were only 1) Death or 2) Life without parole. And you chose Death. Even though he no longer poses a threat to anyone. Look, Im just a little kid, but something seems wrong here. Why are you allowed to kill someone, but the Manson guy isn't? Also, my teacher at school says kentucky isnt even a Southern state. We've been living a lie on that front too. This sucks!

Sincerely,
Junior chee

Notice any similiarities of this thing with something else?

2,000 years later and the governments are still crucifying people. The crosses are just horizontal now. And instead of spikes through the wrists and feet, we use straps and put the spike into a vein.

Junior,

if you go over the limit with no hope of redemption you lose the life without parole option, and death is in short order. If you don't want a date with "old sparky" then don't go killin folks. God gives us free will and if you use it to go on a 10 state killin spree then when John Law catches you you have used your free will to chose to ride the lightnin highway to the hereafter. Paying for your crimes in a quick death is way better than livin off the taxpayers for the next 50 years and gaining a high spot in the prison food chain.

As to you teacher, they are probably some SJW who does not know the geography of the Ohio Ocean. There is a good reason we named the dog Indiana and it was not complimentary. If you are my grandson it all sucks if it is not Scottish and never let the media tell you any different. Now run along and bring your Paw Paw some neeps and tatties and some of great grandpa's medicinals from the basement.
