ralphwiggum 6 Posted May 28, 2003 of course. but i don't want to spend my precious money to pay for a movie that was made by a child rapist, for that would imply that my money help him live away from law. besides, i'm not forcing it to you or anyone. just me. also, i'm not saying i'd not see the movie for eternity. as long as he returns and faces the law i'll watch it. i don't plan to not watch it for rest of my life. just rest of his life or until he faces the consequence, whichever comes first.

Assault (CAN) 1 Posted May 28, 2003 Looks like a good movie, but I won't pay to watch it for the same reasons Ralph stated. BTW, is he a member of NAMBLA? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Die Alive 0 Posted May 28, 2003 If you don't want Polanski getting your money, why don't you just buy a movie ticket to some other movie and go watch the pianist. Â The theaters gets money, you get to watch a good movie, and Polanski gets shut out. Â Thats what I did to watch all those Nightmare on Elm Street/Friday 13th movies back in the 80s, I'd pay for some Diznee movie and just walk into the R rated movie. -=Die Alive=- Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Placebo 28 Posted May 29, 2003 It's a good movie, not as great as they tried to make out, it's no Schindler but it's watchable. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Die Alive 0 Posted May 29, 2003 it's no Schindler Oskar Schindler es bueno. Senor Polanski es el Diablo! -=Die Alive=- Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ralphwiggum 6 Posted May 29, 2003 what happens if someonel ike him invented the cure for cancer? then out him in a cell, and let him work on his stuff from the prison cell. just because of a good thing doesn't mean their past crimes are forgiven.

Renagade 0 Posted May 29, 2003 I kind of meant my point in reverse to what u took as in if the product is genuinely good do u spite urself because of the creator,in general,not relating to mr kiddie fiddler, and looking at t he world d in black and white too Quote[/b] ] "or u could always pirate it then none of the money would go to mr kiddie fiddler" watch what you say. well im sure we could have a reasoned debate on the cause,effect and reasons of piracy someday but just remember what u said next time with things regarding programs like 3dsmax oh and recent movies that have just come out Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bn880 5 Posted September 3, 2003 Yeah I'm going to try and watch this movie soon. Well I'm from Poland so all the movies from WW2 are worth watching for me, except some of the politically biased crapola. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bluesman 0 Posted September 3, 2003 Well he's Polish too so that could be another reason . Nevermind his personal misfortunes/adventures but he's a great director and some of his movies are also some of my favourites. China Town, Rosemary Baby (possibly a source for his personal problems), Frantic and Bitter Moon. Bitter Moon is one of my favourite Erotic movies. I'll rent Pianist when it comes out on DVD.

Assault (CAN) 1 Posted September 3, 2003 I watched 'The Pianist' a few days ago on direct TV (satellite) for free, and I found it to be a good movie. I was suprised that there wasn't more piano playing in the move, I mean, the movie is called, 'The Pianist', right? Adrien Brodie (at least I think it was him) did a good job of acting. At the end of the movie when he was actually 'playing' the piano, I never once thought that it was just film trickery, he was that convincing. Has anyone here ever watched a movie called "Europa, Europa"? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
