omy247 @omy247 (193) 9 Mar 07

How may people upload videos as well as watch them and what are they. Give the links to your uploaded vids. I have uploaded 2 but you can count it as 1, cause the second is a slight modification of the first. So go to youtube.com...

filmjunkie If you don't mind watching older movies then I would suggest renting "All quiet on the western front" (not the 1980's version, you want the 1930s one). It looks at world war one from a german perspective.

do you use a seat belt while driving?

blee92 @blee92 (581) • United States 16 Mar 07

Do you use a seat belt while driving? If you do, do you also make your kids put on their seat belts? i do because i know it can save my life if i ever got into a car crash.

filmjunkie I don't have children but absolutely. If not because it's been the law for how many years? then it's compelled by visceral reaction. I learned that putting on my seatbelt was the right thing to do, it became something normalised to me (like brushing me teeth)....

Does failure become helpful?

ennaej @ennaej (5) • Philippines 16 Mar 07

I just want to know if somewhere in your past, u failed and stand up again with new lessons learned? Me, I've learned a lot from my mistakes. It makes me a better and strong person... How about you?

filmjunkie Defintly. Failure is more important than winning. Without failure there is nothing to compel interest in gaining something. Without failure there is no learning process. One of the things in my CV states "And as a human being working my way up in the...

filmjunkie Some supervisors let their power go to their heads and they think they can control every part of the shop. This makes people see them less as humans and more as machines. The more machine like you see someone, the more possible it is for you to want to snap...

Can a crap parent make a good grandparent?

babykay @babykay (2131) • Ireland 16 Mar 07

I ask this because so many people have huge issues with their parents and the way in which they were parented. Do you think that a bad mother can turn out to be a caring and kind grandmother? Very few mothers or fathers would be...

filmjunkie Yes. A lot of really authoritarian parents change their ways as they become older. This phenonemon is actually very peculiar & it can work both ways. For example: My Grandad and my Grandmother. As parents, my grandad was the horrible parent. He was never at...

Illegal Immigrants, good or bad for US or both?

elpresidente123 @elpresidente123 (60) • United States 16 Mar 07

Lately, especially where I live, there has been a crack down on illegal immigrants. Immigration has been raiding where they are suspected to be working and detaining them and later deporting them back to their countries. Illegal...

filmjunkie I don't know much about this topic, but I would say that there are some families who literally have to illegally leave their countries because of fear of their safety. Here in New Zealand, the body of government that controls immigrants is apprantly, very,...

filmjunkie Hi there ydnac22, what an awesome question. I'm glad I stumbled over it. I'm going to first point out that I believe the death penality to be wrong. I don't see 'why killing people to say killing people is wrong'[1] is the way to go. I have two reasons...

Should governments protect us from ourselves?

beautifulceiling @beautifulceiling (1300) • United States 15 Mar 07

I admit I can't get my head around the idea that there are people who think that it's a good thing to have the government tell them what they can and can't do for their own good. Unless we victimize someone else, I think we...

filmjunkie "Unless we victimize someone else, I think we should be able to do whatever we want." It depends on what you mean by "victimise". Smoking Marijuana for instance, is illegal in most developed countries. This is supposidly for self protection from a...

filmjunkie I don't watch tv. TV here in new zealand is s***. It comes on six months late, sometimes never (from the u.s). It's not even offered digitally the last time I checked (which would have been about two years ago). It's not formatted for widescreen either. I...

heatheer342 @heatheer342 (30) • United States 2 Mar 07

filmjunkie Of course the media affects people. The news for instance, is in reality, just a distorted vision of the world fuelled by corporate interests. Although with internet news, and people relying more on blogs from a personal viewpoint, this seems to be...

Violence on TV and movies, is it getting out of hand?

astromama @astromama (1221) • United States 14 Mar 07

filmjunkie It depends. Personally I will say no. The reason violent films were less common back in the olden days were due to a lot of reasons eg: world wars and things, also society back then was very covered and autocratic. However today, film-makers can generally...

filmjunkie My favourite episode of all time would be the episode where each sister and Leo are infected with one of the seven deadly sins. Phoebe gets lust, Piper gets gluttony, Prue gets pride and Leo gets sloth. Funny as hell.

Favourite Veronica Mars episode

xkaraix @xkaraix (595) • Australia 12 Jan 07

Which episode is your favourite and why? Do you have a favourite for each season? I love the tritons episode, but mainly because of Veronica's kareoke :)

filmjunkie My favourite episode would have to be "a trip to the dentist". I really love the way the whole episode relied on unresticted narration to make a point of Veronica's rape. The revelation that it was in fact Duncan made the end for me aswell, as it shows Teddy...
