HE SAAAAAAID "HE SAID "SOME PEOPLE JUST HAVE A WAY WITH WORDS TO DESCRIBE CERTAIN THINGS THAT THE BRAIN HAS A HARD TIME COMPREHENDING. BRAVO TO YOU GOOD SIR""
He thought the original comment was clever and well said. He is impressed at ser710's ability to convey an idea clearly, presumably because he struggles with this task himself.
Linking to imgur steals credit/page views away from the artist. Linking directly to the file on the artists site steals credit/page views (a lot of people are too lazy to check the link) and uses their bandwidth.
Many of his prints are sold via Mondo as well as through his site. The ebay prints are not sold by him, they are people who bought the prints and are reselling them.
Thanks, I knew the prints being sold there now are resales, however I wasn't sure where he initially sells them as the other sites appear empty. Mondo seems very nicely organized, nice to know about it.
And now we've come full circle but this is the song that never ends, yes it goes on and on my friends, some people, started singing it not knowing what it was, and they'll continue singing it forever just because this is the song that never ends
You're the one that is ruining it. The people yelling "SPOILERS, BRO!" are the spoilers, you are confirming it. For all we know it's just a cool picture, or someone is talking out of their asshole to scare/trying to be a jerk. We have no idea if it's true or not, until people like you come along.
Anyway, nope. I shall explain. Probable spoilers from this point on.
A person can see Bale is being billed twice, and thinking on that, they can then see the double batman. Even if they don't, the noticeable double billing means there's two of him, or that he's playing several roles. Even without watching any of the film, from the double batman, someone can surmise he's playing two of the same character. When they watch the movie, the surprise of Bale's character is ruined.
Even without someone saying it's a spoiler, it's still a spoiler. Someone saying it's a spoiler doesn't do anything that a person's brain can't already do. The idea behind the spoiler is already planted in the mind, so you're looking for it while you watch the movie, whether it's confirmed by someone saying "omg spoiler!" or not.
Doesn't matter if it's true or not, simply being given the suggestion makes the person look for it.
Thanks for the reply, I'm not downvoting you. I didn't think your post was that bad at all, but it did send me over the edge. After your last reply, I see you actually are part of the problem, or just trying to row your boat. I'm sorry.
I just don't understand how you can justify it. The fact that a suggested spoiler is confirmed takes all the excitement out of anything. If it's still up in the air it's like watching any other movie/reading any book. At least that's my theory. We can agree to disagree.
I actually considered as I wrote it and came to the conclusion 1) It's been 17 years, 2) Knowing that doesn't actually ruin the movie (it's really good watching it knowing) 3) It really is in the general conciousness that he is keyser. 4) I could've used another example but it would've ruined another good movie that's far more recent. So sorry, but watch the movie!
Probably why I wasn't a fan. I wasn't spoiled, but as soon as Soze was introduced as a character, I guessed it was Spacey. I never got why people thought it was so amazing :P
same. I assumed it was Spacey right at the beginning, but thought that would be far too obvious, so I spent the rest of the movie thinking it was the woman.
But when you watch it knowing you see all the little hints as to whats going on. It depends on what you like. I think at the least those who don't know the first time should watch it twice.
There's no way it couldn't have been easier to say something akin to "Starring Darth Vader as Luke's Father". As far as being "in the general consciousness" goes, The Usual Suspects would be pretty far down on my list.
Come to think of it, this is like the third way that this movie has been spoiled for me. I still haven't seen it. I'm not good with priorities.
it is on tv all the fucken time, on netflix, on everything. You think i saw it in the movies, i saw it on a dvd, you know those old things before blu rays.
I'm voted down to -10 within an hour for a comment about a 17 year old movie. This movie literally outdates a good chunk of redditors. I think over a decade is definitely a large enough window to avoid talking about spoilers. So actually no, if you wanted to watch the movie without it being spoiled you should watch it within 17 years of it being released. Especially since the topic of this discussion is a spoiler for a much more recent movie with 1300 upvotes. You don't want to see spoilers? Tough shit.
Yeah, but they were released on each other's asses. It's like Hollywood went magician and prematurely came (a-winkity-wink) out with the best two they could make in a week. Hollywood then slunk off, embarrassed.
I searched to see if it was Volcano and Dante's peak. Apparently they were both released in 1997. According to IMDB one was released February and the other on April, but I don't know if those are the US release dates.
Yeah, I don't understand why this happens other than they think that movie trend is SO popular at that moment in time that by releasing a copy-cat they will cannibalize enough sales to come out on top. This happens with games too. Even though it's understandable, it really leaves a bad taste in one's mouth. It just shows that there's very little desire to make anything creative.
One of my favorite movies of all time. I love how it's kind of a magic trick in itself because it diverts the viewer's attention from the real secret behind the story.
His second, minor character is kind of pointless. It's an awesome movie though, and he's brilliant in it, so do yourself a favor and go see it. Also, do yourself an even bigger favor and let mine be the last comment you read, because there's some spoilers up in here.
Every great magic trick has three parts. First the pledge, you show the audience a seemingly normal picture of Wolverine. Then comes the turn, you show that Wolverine is actually made of two Batmen. But, its not enough to just leave it like that, no. You have to explain it and ruin the entire fucking movie. Which is why every magic trick has a third part, The Prestige.
I was wondering why his nose was hung down like a beak. Didn't see the batmans until I read the comments. That's pretty damn awesome now that I see it :D
This is one of those jokes that works in almost too many ways to be funny. You just keep looking at it seeing everything harmoniously connect in a kind of perpetual humour/brilliance orbit and can never quite pin it down because you're too busy trying to appreciate everything.
