Dude never thought about malcolm reynolds as Nathan Drake would be a good choice
uncharted seems to be a movie where you need a big star to headline or else its gonna fail...like rocketeer, nathan fillon though a talented actor in firefly, he wouldnt be able to garner much more than his firefly fanbase...and not even they could make a profit on the movie serenity
"Castle" is one of the most popular shows on TV at the moment, and that is entirely because of Nathan Fillion. I'm pretty sure that he can draw a bit more than just the Firefly crowd.
I am quick to gag on things like fat and mucus, and I experience pretty bad motion sickness, but I have never in my life gagged at the sight of something.
Russell's involvement with the Uncharted movie was the only reason I was interested in it. Now they are using the script made by the writers of Sahara, my expectations for this to be a good movie just took a nose dive.

I'm not sure I understand your complaint, considering "Sahara" is far closer to what the Uncharted games are like than David O. Russell's odd concept.
[QUOTE="swamprat_basic"][QUOTE="dodgerblue13"] Do you realize that LeBron couldn't have done much more with the Cavs than he did? He made them contenders and look at them without him for one year. Horrendous. Compare the early Bulls (Jordan's first seven years) to LeBron's Cavs. Nobody is winning the finals with those Cavaliers. Thing is, LeBron came close.eboyishere
Fact of the matter is that the Cavs team was good enough to get LeBron to the NBA finals, and then they got swept. A GOAT contender would have gotten his team a win or two, even if they were outmatched, even if it required pulling a Kobe and scoring 81 points. GOAT contenders do not lose when the game is on the line.
GOAT contenders dont win unless scotty pippen is on the team:lol:
There are a lot more GOAT contenders than Michael Jordan, and Scottie Pippen didn't play on all of their teams.
For my own reasons why MJ is and always will be better, MJ never sold out his draft team for a ring.
LBJ has the potential to win more than MJ, but even if he does, "The Decision" will always taint him in my mind.

The John Jay Criminal College examined the issue and found it had Nothing to do with Celibacy.
" a landmark study by researchers at John Jay College of Criminal Justice of the City University of New York, which examined the causes and context of the clergy sexual abuse crisis in the U.S. Catholic Church, concluded that there was no single cause or predictor of sexual abuse by Catholic clergy. The report added that that situational factors and opportunity to abuse played a significant role in the onset and continuation of abusive acts.
"The bulk of cases occurred decades ago," said Karen Terry, PhD., John Jay's principal investigator for the report. "The increased frequency of abuse in the 1960s and 1970s was consistent with the patterns of increased deviance of society during that time." She also stated that "social influences intersected with vulnerabilities of individual priests whose preparation for a life of celibacy was inadequate at that time." Terry also said that neither celibacy nor homosexuality were causes of the abuse, and that priest candidates who would later abuse could not be distinguished by psychological test data, developmental and sexual history data, intelligence data, or experience in priesthood. The development of human formation components of seminary preparation for priesthood is associated with the continued low levels of child sexual abuse by Catholic priests in the United States, she said"

No, I do not mean that the Priests being celibate for so long is what causes this to happen. It is a natural inclination for a human being to desire a spouse and children, and the requirement of celibacy deters most of these normal individuals from joining the priesthood. So then the only people who join the priesthood are the absolute most devout or those with other urges. Unless they're saying that the offending priests started out as normal and became twisted over time, in which case that's an even bigger sign that the Church is doing something wrong.
