Never seen any.rockguy92

If you haven't seen any of them then I suggest you go rent them. He usually always makes epic blockbuster movies.

Now I like all his movies but my favorite would have to be Avatar. That movie has just amazed me so I am a huge fan of that series now and hope to see more from it in the future.

I saw the movie last night in IMAX 3D and it was the best looking movie I have ever seen. You almost want to reach out and touch some of the forest creatures. Best movie of the year in my opinion.

I won't post the pic since "some" people might find it offensive but I think Marilyn Manson's Holywood album cover was amazing and so was Slipknots first LP Slipknot

I prefer Google Chrome. I have used all the major browsers on the market and Google Chrome is the easiest and most reliable. I have modified my Chrome browser also so that most sites think it is Firefox so I can view videos that wouldn't normally play on Chrome like the Netflix instant watch videos since it wasn't optimized for Chrome. Now you can change the themes on Chrome too which is nice so you don't have to stare that the Bright White plain color all the time.

To the people that don't like that Chrome saves your search history you can go into "Incognito Mode" which means it doesn't save your history or sites visited.

The bookmark system in Chrome is great also, its fast and simple. Plus you can customize different bookmark folders which means you don't have to have sites you don't want to showing on the bookmark bar "cough cough"

Well it was not totally forgotten cause after the war I think there were 5 ranking officers tried and convicted by a tribunal over the incident and sentenced to death by hanging. This is a appalling incident in world history but it isn't the only one that happened during WW2 that isn't talked about a lot. The Japanese Army did the same thing in Korea and the Philippines during that time frame. My girlfriend is filipino and her grandmother has told her stories about what the Japanese did to their village. Pretty scary stuff but thats what happens during wars.

I don't know if visitors of this site know this but there is still great resentment towards Japan in China, Korea and the Philippines not just towards Japan but also towards the USA. They feel that after the war we invested so much money into Japan to help rebuild them and also turned them into a regional super power but never helped them and they were victims of the war.

There have been riots in South Korea already cause the Korean government wants certain things in class books taken out about WW2 as to not incite ill feelings towards Japan nowadays. In Japan a lot of WW2 history is not even in school books and a lot of school children don't even know that the United States and Japan ever were at war with one another and if they do all they know is that it was a long time ago and the USA dropped the atomic bombs to end it. They don't know specifics unless they actually look it up for themselves.

In my personal opinion I think everyone should know about what happened since it was a part of history even if it was a sad and horrendous part. What is the use of History if you can't learn from it is what I always say. WW2 was bad for everyone and a lot of different countries did horrible things including the USA but its in the past.......

(Sorry for the long post)

American football easily. Seriously don't understand why it takes so long for the players to set up between plays. They take like 1-2 minutes when they could be going at around 5-10 seconds in between plays like in rugby league. Absolutely ruins the game IMO.

You must not know American Football very well then cause they have a 40 second play clock in between plays. In my opinion soccer is the worst sport basically since it is so boring to watch. I think thats why most Americans don't like soccer, nothing exciting ever happens. I think when it comes down to skill as a player American Footballers would have the most. Lets see a Rugby player take a football and throw it 40 yards into the hands of a receiver covered by 2 people.

I look at Iran's government (not their people) as a kid throwing a temper tantrum when it doesn't get its way. Iran and North Korea are similar in their ways when it comes to attaining what they want. If they don't get it right away they try to intimidate to get it by scare tactics like we are seeing now. I personally think they are wanting to have their own facility to enrich the nuclear fuel either Uranium or Plutonium so they can use the spent fuel cells when they are done to make fast and cheap nuclear weapons.

Do I want Iran to have nuclear power for their people? Yes. Do I want Iran to have a enrichment facility to attain the nuclear power. No.
