It's called some people have imagination and don't care drastically for realism when they know it isn't real, myself included. Not Harry Potter so much, but I do like Lord of the Rings. The story's set in an alternate world, so why should they live by our world's rules? I'm done rambling...
I don't get why Big Ben wasn't gifted with bigger hands... He'd be so dominant, possibly on both ends...
It's never a good idea to have McDyess and Ben on the floor at the same time. They drop and fumble more balls than the Detroit Lions.

anyway the argument over relating to movies cracks me up, i've had the same discussion with hip hop fans about rap music for a long time. Guys won't want to listen to rappers like MF Doom or Brotha Lynch Hung because they're too outside the box from the typical gangsta rap shit, they'll argue that it's too 'phony'. Snoop, Jay-Z, 50 cent ETC market music as being "real" to a bunch of people who never have (or ever will) experience that "reality". People don't want real, they want to be fed a bullshit fantasy that seems attainable in the real world even though it isn't.
Anyways all artforms whether music, movies, pictures or whatever are outlets for creative expression. If you lack imagination and cannot put yourself in situations outside of your own than naturally you will not enjoy them. However art must continue to be art, and artists must be creative in their work. The only thing that's really a boundary in art is the imagination of the artist, not reality. If you want reality and something you know can relate to, then go sit on your porch (it gets no more real then that).
So you only watch movies about teenage boys who watch pistons games and post on message boards? That must be a pretty limited selection.Quote:

I doubt many war vets watch "When we were soldiers" or something like that. They want to forget that stuff. Movies are for people to see how things might be if they were in that position. Sortof living that life. A good movie makes it feel real to you. It doesn't have to be real in itself.
That's what is so great about LOTR, the Matrix, etc. They really make it seem real. Many of those movies are far fetched, but the symbolism is quite real. Either you are completely missing the symbolism, or you are too thrown off by the fantasy part of them that you have no chance to see it.
Things I don't get:
Laid
lol.
I don't get why people chew their gum with their mouth open. They look like a damn cow.
Heartburn.
I've never had it.
Also, I don't understand why I never burp.
I think I burp about once every 6 months or so, and even then, it hardly makes any noise.
It's been this way my whole life. (I might have burped more as a baby, I dunno)
Any doctors here?
maybe you fart a lot. don't know.
I've only had heartburn a few times in my life, and it wasn't something spicey either.
On a related note, I never get ice cream headaces. I could eat a gallon and not get one.
