I don't want to watch a dude filming the theater with his damn camera. Unless you can watch the film in high quality before the DVD is out. Anyway, this is getting illegal, so let's try to stop the discussion lol.

A lot of films aren't on reels anymore. They have digital reels that allows them to send the films to the theater without transportation costs. To hinder piracy, they place watermarks on these films that are removed at the theaters with equipment from the studios so when the audience sees the movie it looks normal. So, the shaky hand cam downloads are a thing of the past (again, welcome to the internet). Now its all digitally uploaded copies of what the movie theater actually has. And with a lot of international releases coming out before the US release, you can watch the movie before anyone in America (if you're going to argue subtitles, the Canadian, UK, and Australian releases are in English idiots). Speaking of the Avengers, it was released on May 4, 2012. I watched it in my bedroom on May 2, 2012 at the comfort and warmth of my bedroom.

You wouldn't download a car!

Pretty sure he has one, but can't find it atm. And if the only thing he does is **** this section up, then he doesn't need to make accounts at all. If he really wanted to contribute to something he wouldn't act like he does.

what is the deal with everyone and their obsession with calling out all the art forms they deem overrated?

oh I know, we gotta put the things in the ranks, else the world is not right.

I'm not sure if there is something I missed with respect to that movie, so I want to hear why it gets so much praise. I guess I can sum up my current thoughts on it by saying it was really weird.

I think they are actually doing a remake of it now too.

Robert DeNiro.

Also, I'm not sure how you pronounce "Kero", but the way I pronounce it in my mind; it wouldn't rhyme with "hero" anyway. It would have to be "herro" for it to rhyme.

Despite Robert DiNero being a fantastic answer, i lied about the hint. The answer was Kero. PWN.

For the record, KeroKeroppi is pronounced as follows:

Kero- the word "hero" with a K
Keroppi- the word "her" with a K, the letter "O", the letter "P"

Just realized my gamer tag ends in OP.

I guess it's fitting! :rotfl:

Hey guys, my username is really pronounced "zippormozg." Now, I know that's not what it looks like at all and goes against everything you've learned about the English language, but I get to choose the right way to pronounce it because it's mine.

I have norwegian pronounciation on my nick. I guess its easier to tell at Apex than try to explain here. So now people have even bigger reasons to come!
