You know that will just make the people after a support or ranged set chaff at the bit even more for what they want.

Just goes to show, you shouldn't take language for granite. For all intensive purposes, this thread should be taken with a grain assault.

Quote:No harm. We've been egregiously (and purposefully) abusing the english language in this thread. I'm sure it might look awful strange (or just awful) to a non-native speaker.Originally Posted by Lord_Kalistoh
I though that after seeing Minotaur's reply. Being English a foreign language to me, sometimes is difficult to get those things.

I don't think there's an AT I haven't played to at least level 30. Well, except for a Widow... but I'm working on it ever so slowly.

And Tenzhi is right, I have that "My character wouldn't do that" moment in First Ward with Katie. Though this doesn't bother me, as I just don't run the arc.

Quote:A film could enjoy such success and still not entertain me, so, not something I find relevant. What I do find relevant is that aesthetic choices were made in both of his Batman films that I didn't like. Now, both of those films ultimately managed to rise above the things that bothered me, but that's only two movies - Nolan hasn't established enough entertainment credit with me for me to loan him blind faith.Originally Posted by JeNeSaisQuoi
Yeah, I'm especially doubtful considering what huge critical and commercial flops his last two films have been...

I play Trick Arrows, and I think it could stand to be better. But it's been brought up ad nauseum to little effect.

...You used peruse incorrectly.
Specifically, peruse means to go over something with great effort. You peruse a book you want to know by heart.
Language is funny like that. Especially english.

Quote:I completely support your use of historical facts where you've applied them to non-fictional historical accounts. Fictional stories, however, are called fiction for a reason.Originally Posted by New_Dark_Age
lol yeah racism....not like I am using historical facts
Explain to me how me stating that there is no "LOGICAL" reason a black man would be on a Norweign base or how there is no "LOGICAL REASON free blacks would be in a movie based in 1775 South Carolina or that the Samurai stood against the Meiji Revolution in Japan is Racism ? -

Quote:IIRC, Elladan and Elrohir show up right after the battle in the book. Perhaps that fuzzy recollection along with the promptings of the movie corrupted your memory.Originally Posted by Energizing_Ion
From what I remember Elves did come to help them at Helm's Deep.
<snip>
Edit:
Hmm, just looked at wikipedia (yes, yes...) but it seems I was wrong about the whole thing...hmm...how do I make that stuff up?
*needs to read the books again*
In my opinion, the battle at Helm's Deep was symbolic of the strength of Men (racially speaking), feeding into the ongoing theme of the rise of Men (and subsequent waning of other races) heading into the new Age. Having the elves at Helm's Deep took away from this theme.
In a similar symbolic vein, Faramir was supposed to show that Man could have the strength of character to rise above temptation. I feel that movies really mucked all that up (though overall I still enjoy them).
