Get ready for another Passion of the Christ with how t his is going to accepted by the public--you'll get some who'll refuse to see it and a solid group of people who'll insist their children have to see it with them.

Trailer: Boy in the Striped Pyjamas

BBC article on it: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/7610794.stm

Originally posted by BBC
Children 'should see' Holocaust film

By Neil Smith
Entertainment reporter, BBC News


The makers of a new movie offering a child's perspective on the Holocaust are encouraging parents to let their children see it.

The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas has been rated 12A by the British Board of Film Classification for its "scenes of holocaust threat and horror".

As such the film is considered suitable for viewers aged 12 and over, though younger children may be admitted if they are accompanied by an adult.

"I think 12A is an ideal certificate," says its director Mark Herman. "You're never too young to learn about the idiocy of racism and the folly of prejudice."

Based on the novel by Irish author John Boyne, the film tells of the friendship that develops between Bruno, the eight-year-old son of a concentration camp commandant, and Shmuel, a Jewish boy who is imprisoned inside.

According to Herman, the drama offers young children "an easy first step towards learning about that horrible time in our history".

"It's not a children's film, but it certainly could and should be watched by children," agrees the British actor David Thewlis, who plays Bruno's father.

Distressing

The Harry Potter star says he will "very forcibly" encourage his three-year-old daughter, Gracie, to see the film when she is old enough.

This is despite an emotive climax that, while far from graphic, could well prove distressing to those of an impressionable age.



EDIT: I read the ending and suddenly had the urge to punch babies.

Well, then I guess I fall into your theory, but my boyfriend does not.

I can tell you right now it wasn't for the camera shaking/moving, for plot holes like the camera battery lasting longer than it should have, that you can walk the distance these people did in a matter of a few hours, etc, or for the fact that it was meant to be an American monster movie that made me dislike it.

I'm just going to leave it at that. If you read the previous Cloverfield thread, you already know my thoughts on it.

That's it.

And since my boyfriend recently reformatted my hard-drive there really isn't anything on the there of note other than a couple Stuff on My Cat pictures. Before the reformat, my desktop was completely filled with folders of pictures I'd just taken, pictures I found online that I though were hilarious and so on.

My pictures.

Ever since I got a digital camera a few years ago, it seems like I'm dumping about at least 600 pictures onto my hard drive every other week, and it's really built-up. It especially gets more and more packed after conventions and faires, and since I became Brandon's band's photographer every show yields about 300 pictures.


What's something about you you'd never want your parents discovering?

Posted on 09-15-08 01:36 PM, in Reporting now on Hurricane Ike, but first, lets check out this guy wearing a bear suit. Link
Weird, I've seen videos of this guy, but with a woman reporter in the foreground and there was no other guy with a camera. It was just the bear.

Anyway, shame about the 140,000 people ignoring the hurricane warning.

Name: Ni'ja.

Gender: Female.

Age: By her people's concept of time, she just turned 20. By the world's standards, she's still 19.

Description: Middle Eastern by appearance, Ni'ja has light brown skin, dark brown hair, and green eyes. In the RP, Ni'ja will not be adhering to Hijab--no chador or burqa. However, her timidness around foreigners still makes her feel a headscarf is necessary (doesn't want to be tempting infidels with her feminine wiles now, does she?).

She's small and slender at 5'2" and 110 lbs.

History: Taken in by a Sahara Desert-dwelling Bedouin tribe of nomads, Ni'ja as a child, was found wandering in the dark, alone and unprotected, in the desert when she came upon their encampment. The Bedouin are confused as to how a child could survive the blistering daytime heat without any provisions for a day much less the amount of time it probably took her to walk through the vast desert and into their camp. Glad to see her alive, though, she is quickly given food, water, and place to stay despite her unwillingness to explain where she'd come from or how she'd stumbled upon them.

The strange girl denies ever having a name (or parents) and is called Ni'ja, Arabic for "saved one."

It is suspected that Ni'ja was an escapee from a human-trafficking syndicate in north Africa (possibly Sudan) where she would have been smuggled somewhere else to be slave labor. Ni'ja speaks Arabic and has an ear for English, but she isn't quite fluent.

As the years progress, Ni'ja reaches the age of 20 by the Islamic lunar calendar and hasn't been chosen as someone's wife... yet.

Due to the Bedouin's tradition of arranged marriage, and her lack of parents to strike such a deal with a young man's parents at her birth, she's often been considered by some to be taboo. Rashid, however, doesn't think so. Having three wives and is allowed one more by common law, he has his eye on Ni'ja.

In an effort to prolong her fate of endlessly bearing children on top of being dealt the wrath of three women who'd be jealous toward her union with their husband, Ni'ja proclaims a desire to fulfill the fifth Islamic pillar of Hajj--pilgrimage to Mecca--and cannot be married or slept with until she sates the need and returns.

With her guardians' blessing, she sets off, escorted by a small group, toward the Red Sea where they'll take a ferry to Mecca.

Her group is marauded in Sudan. Just as a Janjaweed is about to attack her, (possibly capture her to rape her and pass her on to the next man, as is a common occurrence among Sudanese fighters) a bright flash erupts around Ni'ja and she finds herself in New York City on the roof of a high-rise building.

Ni'ja's wearing the same clothes as before, but she's alone. None of her belongings are with her and she absolutely NO CLUE where she is or how she got there.

She's seeking answers from any public official who can give them to her.

Aurora User: Ni'ja has no idea what you infidels are talking about.


EDIT: Fucking typos.

I'm pretty sure I have since I've developed a minor collection of them--be it the classic red and blue ones or the now-standard gray ones.


Would you marry someone who loved you very much and would never hurt you, but they bore you to tears, they aren't great-looking, they're mediocre in the sack, and you can't stand their clinginess OR would you try and pursue the person who's bad for you in every way--they've cheated on you, they take your money, they can be abusive vocally and physically, and they would rather be with someone else--whom you love with every fiber of your being and can't get out of your mind and when they turn their attention on you (when they aren't busy looking at other people or calling you names) you feel like you're melting into a happy little puddle of joy?

Now for me that's really trippy.

I was just thinking about it seeing as there's a Dodge dealership near my new school and every time they put the Ram symbol on the light-up marque outside, it looks like the outline of a uterus.

Well I'm rooming with my boyfriend, but no, I've never roomed with an ex.

Hmm, then again, there was this time when my ex from Texas stayed at my house for a week and we shared a room, but that's the extent of it.

Fuck you, seat-stealers of the world.

There's been the odd occasion that I'll attend a crowded theater event, be it a movie, panel, or what have you. I'll find a couple seats in the center of a row for my boyfriend and I and as we make our way over people's laps, bags, and feet, someone will come down from the other side and race to plant their ass in the chairs we're on our way to.

OK, fine. Minor inconvenience. We'll move on to somewhere else.

Yesterday, however, whilst on the bus I noticed an elderly man who's heavily-relying on his cane to make it to a seat, of which there are no more available. I, who happened to be sitting in a disabled/senior persons-priority seat, got up and gestured for him to take mine.

A guy no older than I, plops down into it from behind me and looks up with this "Sucker!" sneer on his face. I start saying to him that I meant for the older man to sit there, but of course, the prick turns up the volume on his iPod and focuses his attention on his cell phone.

Throughout the ride, the poor old fellow nearly fell down three times while grasping one of the poles during the bus driver's absurdly hard-braking for lights and stops.

For fuck's sake.
