Thank you for the recommendation about "The Imitation Game." It was a wonderful
movie, with truly great performances from both Benedict Cumberbatch and Keira
Knightly.

"Ah, the bravery of theliberals who think they have a perfect right to insult
anyone's cherishedbeliefs just because they want to."
I'm sorry, but you and the Right Wing do not get to own this argument. I hear
this shit from my libertarian and tea bagger friends all the time, that
somehow, they are braver, more respectful, more informed, because they they
thought that dissent stopped with end of the Revolutionary War. This is
offensive speech in my mind.
Humor, satire, lampoon is a great American and world wide tradition. Let's
remember Ben Franklin. Let's also remember Lenny Bruce.
Liberals, and generally opened minded people period, are brave. The choose to
buck the status quo. If you want to see a brave liberal catch "The Imitation
Game". It's a darn good film even if they fiddle with the details a bit to
make it a thriller. Braking the Enigma and Lorenz was great work which saved
lives and most likely ended the WWII 2 years early. Remember cherished beliefs
are the same thing as cherished facts, or just plain facts.
Thanks for your comments on this issue, really. I was starting to think that
only Salyavin and Curtis and I were the only sane ones here, and you know that
down that path lies madness and NO ONE really wants to go there, so thanks for
the course correction. :-) :-) :-)
Thanks also for the "entertainment prompt," in the form of reminding me about
"The Imitation Game." Those of you who have not yet attained EC (Eyepatch
Consciousness) probably don't know, but this is the best time of the year for a
pirate such as myself. In the last two days I think I've seen over a dozen
"screeners" of this year's best movies. These are almost always in DVD
resolution, and you sometimes have to put up with the "Property of
Such-and-Such Studios" watermarks from time to time, but they're good, clean
copies of the latest movies.
I don't know for sure, being a read-only pirate, but I suspect that some of
these copies come directly from Academy members or journalists voting for
Golden Globe nominations. Many of the ones I found today in the Pirate verse
still haven't come to me via my legitimate reviewer channels. Go figure.
Anyway, "The Imitation Game" showed up today, so thanks for the reminder. I may
watch it later tonight.
