As I said in another comment I hadn’t realised he was in prison. My level of interest in the lives of convicted paedophiles is – and this may not come as a surprise – very low, so I just thought he was trying to clear his name.

“It would vacate his conviction and get him out of prison. His life after may not be great, but he still has money.”

That I can understand – the getting out of prison part. (Sorry – I don’t pay any attention to most of this and really wasn’t aware he was in jail).

But (and I admit this is where my knowledge of what’s going on in the US gets a bit sketchy because I live in the UK and – okay – don’t care all that much) wasn’t Cosby’s conviction overturned on a technicality? And as far as I can tell he hasn’t regained his former glory and former status as “America’s Dad”?

Merits of the request aside (because I really have no clue) how does this possibly help him?

Does he think the entire world is just going to forget he was originally convicted? That we are just going to go “Oh – there’s that guy who wasn’t ever found guilty of looking at child porn and doing sex things with kids”?

Do people who are convicted of stuff then acquitted on technicalities really think that the public just forget all their past crimes because a piece of paper says “sorry – they were prosecuted one day too late”?

You don’t have to answer this, but just how many eggs have you had to go through to find these five?

No – that makes no sense.

If you don’t know something is there, how would you know you have to cast a spell to reveal it?

Surely you can only cast a spell on something you know is there to make it visible, not on something you don’t know is there.

Because if you don’t know it is there, how would you know it is there to cast a spell on it?

To cast a spell on something, you have to know there is something on which to cast the spell.

You have to be able to see something to cast a spell at it.

So…

Even if you include the rest of The DA or even the rest of The Order, I’d still take the Predator.

Also with music by John Williams.

There is a definite pattern developing here :)

Gremlins. And Anna & The Apocalypse.

Two films that have quite a lot in common

Little kid get abandoned by his family.

An adult gets set on fire at one point.

Another adult suffers a lot of pain due to a kid.

There’s a creepy old guy that you don’t know whether they are good or evil until the end.

I suspect it was something to do with Grindelwald and their “adventures”. Or it might be Grindelwald and the fight that got baby Sis killed.

Hermioneeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

That wasn’t my point, but whatever

Yeah, I am not going to “grow the fuck up”

I have no objection to people who dislike how the tone changed once they have watched the entire series

But if you bail out before the end – if you bail out before you get a true understanding of what the series is really about (an analogy of World War II in the magical world, where the muggle born witches & wizard are the Jews and the purebloods & Death Eaters are the Nazis) – then I have no sympathy for you at all.

Also, if you didn’t do at least a little research into the series before you started watching it – if you go into it thinking “this will be a happy, fluffy series about a boy who goes to magical school and nothing bad happens to him” then quite honestly I have very little sympathy for you as well. The entire series is 30 years old – if you don’t know Harry Potter is about a war (a war where people will die and a war where people will suffer) then quite frankly that is on you and really you have no one else to blame.

My boss, the first time he watched “The Sound of Music” expressed great surprise that there were Nazis in it, which really made my go “what the fuck did you expect – it’s set during the invasion of Austria in World War II”. But apparently he didn’t bother to do any investigation or research, and was quite upset by the Nazis. And I had no sympathy for him either.

So yeah – really you brought this on yourself.

Well that just makes me not want to watch it at all.

Yeah – you REALLY should have watched Deathly Hallows 1 & 2. You kind of missed the entire point of the series if you skipped the end.

It’s like watching “It’s a Wonderful Life” and turning it off before the end.

So either you entirely missed the point or you have written an entire post to take the piss out of this forum.

Are you just having a rant?
