I shouldn't be surprised about this at all....I really shouldn't.

What did you expect from "the stooges"?

[mojoboy31]

Well yes.

 

[William67]

He will be punished. Oh yes,...he will.

 

[Travelers.Soul]

Well yes.

He will be punished. Oh yes,...he will.

I can't wait to see this...

I'm kind of surprised Mojo didn't try to use the cover of that panned movie Old-Fashioned from last year to feature William and Miss Ireland, instead.

Oh my....
I didn't know there was such a movie, I just looked it up.

Edit: It looks like a cute movie but I would never be that bold. "When are you going to ask me out?"

Well, to be honest, I am not as big a fan of this "love story" as I thought I might be. I mean, in anything, the movie plays off the main guy as chivalrous, and yet, there's a part in the movie where he makes the main girl stand outside in the cold while he's in her house fixing her stuff. I mean, I know and understand why he did it, but nevertheless, I would not call doing that to a woman chivalrous. There's some other stuff too that I think ended up painting chivalry and old-fashionedness in a bad light to those who know only today's more liberal culture of romance. The main problem was that, just like you'd expect with most Christian-made movies, the guy who directed the movie (also the actor playing the main guy) was so obviously just pandering too much to a certain crowd. And his character just ended up looking ... well ... kind of like a jerk in his own way - like the opposite, undesirable extreme of Christian Grey. (Although don't get me wrong; I would still watch this movie again over even trying to take a first-time gander at 50 Shades of Grey.)



... Not that I am trying to insinuate anything wrong about William67 in saying that. Just the old-fashioned part in general made me think of what you two would be like if you started dating.

Yikes, yeah that wasn't a very nice move. Goodness, just have the woman wait in a different room or something. Well, I'm going to see if I can find it just to watch it. It looked cute but I may not like it after I watch it...you never know. Such a shame, there is nothing wrong with being a bit old fashioned or gentlemanly. I think it is lovely when a man is a gentleman, not perfect but with some manners. That is a smart decision, about 50 Shades of Grey. I didn't watch it and I don't need to to recognize it's not something I want to watch.

Well, that, and the fact that on their first date he took the main girl to a lady friend's (or his ex's, I can't remember) house to have her chop up the food of the child the friend/ex belonged to. ... I guess to see if she would be good mother material in his eyes or not, because they were both reading this book the main guy's pastor/counselor gave them that ask personal questions of one another to see if they are compatible in a traditionally Christian way (and I just don't think the majority of those questions are what you ask on a first date). I got kind of a sexist vibe off of that scene with the "let's see if you can do this task of carving up baby food in such a doting, caring way as to show me you'll be a good mommy", not to mention that ... well ... that's kind of a really weird first date, period.

To each their own, I guess. I mean, obviously the main girl was fine with the ... shall we say, unconventional, way this dude approached a romance with her, considering she got together with him in the end.

That is the oddest first date I have ever heard of...in fact if some guy took me over to his ex's or lady friend's for the sole purpose of chopping up the food of the lady's child I would probably not go along with that at all. He would have to explain to me why he wanted me to do something so strange. It's one thing if you're baby sitting and the child needs their food cut up but to go on a date where that is one of the things you do? Very strange.

Have not heard of that movie...

I'm surprised anyone else has seen that movie. I watched it with my family and I came away with the same impression about it and the main character. Perhaps he was trying to fit into a certain box but his motives seemed really off.

@William67 - @dreaminofireland

Great movie, 10/10, would recommend. Dreamin and William are great in it, they're also a great real life couple.
