  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

What's on your mind?

After thousands of years of story telling and over a century of cinema, we were bound to run out of fresh ideas sooner or later. Heck, my parent's, grandparent's, and great grandparent's days had all the best idea. Our day just has all the best special effects.
I've noticed this too; creativity in general seems to be dying out. That's probably why there's been so many sequels and reboots lately.

Speaking of animation, I hate how most modern cartoons on television are done in flash. Makes them look incredibly cheap like card board cut outs.
Yeah, I miss the days when they were animated by hand using celluloids. Shows today are cheap (made using flash), fast-paced, obnoxious (just to try to get laughs), and have no heart. They don't teach or reinforce values, and they seem to take no skill to make anymore.

Flash can be quite impressive though. I remember watching the revived, final season of Samurai Jack, and there were some moments which were simply breathtaking:
So far, that seems to be the only nostalgic reboot done correctly.
