Ex-freaking-actly.
It's time for the police to start kicking a$$ and taking names.
John Kerry is the Senator from Massachusetts in the USA who ran against Bush in 2004. He is your typical rich elitist liberal. He preaches that people should pay more taxes so the government can spend more of it on more social programs. He also married the Heinz ketchup heir, so you would think he would put his actions where his mouth is, correct? Well, to save taxes, he placed his YACHT in a neighboring state to BYPASS the Massachusetts tax on docking fees, until he was caught red-handed! The ACLU is a despicable liberal organization here that worries about how rapists, terrorists and murderers are treated in jails, and wants to have religion removed from the fabric of daily life here. This is liberalism in the USA. From what you are telling me, that defines conservatism in Europe. Interesting that the terms are polar opposites when defined by each continent.

I see absolutely nothing wrong with Bloomberg's program. The wrong of it all is when parents think they SHOULD NOT teach children stuff because someone else should. If there's reinforcement of the same concept on part of the school well then all the better. What makes the difference is the PARENTS' attitude. I am fine with schools teaching people to behave, they should. As long as that is a SURPLUS, that goes to reinforce a concept that PARENTS are supposed to give their children first and foremost.
That said... shouldn't we go back to Bond discussion? Like for example how the whole issue about this Bond girl/Moneypenny deal is still completely hanging in the gossip department? Because there's still no official news about Harris being cast. Or anyone else for that matter (other than Craig).
The film won't be made at this rate. Compare this to Superman's progress. It's a joke. I hope there is internal strife over spending money on another Cr-egg film after what has been happening to all of his other films. Something is not adding up.
http://www.boxofficemojo.com/daily/chart/ As was predicted here, the Cr-egg egg is now 6th in box office draw even behind Crazy Stupid Love, in the MOST theatres as well! What an insult! This MAY be the cause of Bond 23's delayed REAL news. Dream House had a $55 million budget for production. Let's add on a low ball $45 million to advertise/promote it. It needs to gross $200 million then just to break even next month! Does anyone see that happening after the trailer? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nIeMYPfnST0
Favorite Bond Movie: The Dark Knight Trilogy, Mission: Impossible, Kingsman: The Secret Service and The November Man or any upcoming actioners starring Pierce Brosnan (no, it's not James Bond which is good since it will help him expand his reputation as an actor especially in the action realm)
Favorite Movies: Star Wars Indiana Jones Star Trek The Dark Knight Trilogy Harry Potter Middle-Earth The Matrix Mission: Impossible The Mummy Jurassic Park Godzilla
There are still some who think QOS was a huge success, even when you place the facts, the still choose to believe something else. As I once said "You can't argue with Fanatics"
I've just had my rather "Tongue in cheek" jibe about C&A dropping to Number six in the cinema listings on ajb007. Only to be compared to the right wing attacks on Obama. Now what did I say about "FANATICS"
so I'm having a little fun Praising him to the hilt, on all Threads. I'm going to be his Biggest Fan.

You shoulda been here when QOS came out on DVD. Even when confronted with proof of poor sales, a few of the Craig diehards refused to believe it.

Qos DVD was a huge mega hit breaking all records! Except it wasn't it lost the week to a toon and I forget what released a few day earlier. I feel sorry for those poor fools who bought it blind.
CvA opens in the UK soon right, is there still excitement for it? I can think of a very good reason why there will not be big numbers there but I better not say.

Oh-bama attacks are happening by liberals as well, just check out the loon Senator from Vermont, Sanders. Was it your fault Cr-egg's film flopped to 6th? Are the people there in denial? Typical.
The Dark Knight Rises (July 20, 2012): The Dark Knight was the last non-3D movie to reach $1 billion, and it took over six months to inch past that point. Without Heath Ledger as the Joker and with a less-enticing marketing campaign so far, it's unlikely that The Dark Knight Rises matches The Dark Knight's outstanding $533.1 million domestic total. However, it should top The Dark Knight's $468.8 million foreign total, considering that superhero sequels almost always improve on their predecessors' grosses. An important indicator is the performance of director Christopher Nolan's Inception, which at least partly leveraged good will from his Batman movies to earn a massive $533 million overseas. There's an off-chance The Dark Knight Rises falls short of $1 billion, but the odds currently appear overwhelmingly in its favor.
The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey (Dec. 14, 2012): The Lord of the Rings trilogy made over $2.9 billion worldwide, with Return of the King capping off the series with an incredible $1.12 billion in 2003. Nine years later, audiences will finally see The Hobbit on the big-screen. It probably won't be as well-attended as Return of the King, though it doesn't need to be to reach $1 billion, thanks to its 3D premiums and nine years of ticket-price inflation. Man of Steel (June 14, 2013) brings Superman back to the big screen, though his previous outing only earned $391 million worldwide. This one should get a boost from its Dark Knight-like reboot, but $1 billion is probably way out of reach. The Adventures of Tintin (Dec. 23): While Tintin is basically an unknown quantity domestically, it's an immensely popular brand overseas, particularly in Europe. It's unclear whether it will play in Asia, though, which is critical for any $1 billion contender, and it also may be a stretch for it to make $200 million in the U.S. No matter how big Tintin is in Europe, it's unlikely to make $800 million overseas, likely putting a $1 billion worldwide sum out of its reach. Still, it's worth keeping an eye on.
The Apes have now surpassed Cr-eggs and Aliens! What a disgrace for Spielberg/Howard/Grazer/Favreau and the eggster! Potter seems to have long legs this time and is holding steady. What will Steven, Ron, Brian and Jon tell each other now? http://www.boxofficemojo.com/daily/chart/
