Forum Rules (Everyone Must Read!!!)
1] What you CAN NOT post.
You agree, through your use of this service, that you will not use this forum to post any material which is:
- abusive
- vulgar
- hateful
- harassing
- personal attacks
- obscene
You also may not:
- post images that are too large (max is 500*500px)
- post any copyrighted material unless the copyright is owned by you or cited properly.
- post in UPPER CASE, which is considered yelling
- post messages which insult the Armenians, Armenian culture, traditions, etc
- post racist or other intentionally insensitive material that insults or attacks another culture (including Turks)
The Ankap thread is excluded from the strict rules because that place is more relaxed and you can vent and engage in light insults and humor. Notice it's not a blank ticket, but just a place to vent. If you go into the Ankap thread, you enter at your own risk of being clowned on.
What you PROBABLY SHOULD NOT post...
Do not post information that you will regret putting out in public. This site comes up on Google, is cached, and all of that, so be aware of that as you post. Do not ask the staff to go through and delete things that you regret making available on the web for all to see because we will not do it. Think before you post!
2] Use descriptive subject lines & research your post. This means use the SEARCH.
This reduces the chances of double-posting and it also makes it easier for people to see what they do/don't want to read. Using the search function will identify existing threads on the topic so we do not have multiple threads on the same topic.
3] Keep the focus.
Each forum has a focus on a certain topic. Questions outside the scope of a certain forum will either be moved to the appropriate forum, closed, or simply be deleted. Please post your topic in the most appropriate forum. Users that keep doing this will be warned, then banned.
4] Behave as you would in a public location.
This forum is no different than a public place. Behave yourself and act like a decent human being (i.e. be respectful). If you're unable to do so, you're not welcome here and will be made to leave.
5] Respect the authority of moderators/admins.
Public discussions of moderator/admin actions are not allowed on the forum. It is also prohibited to protest moderator actions in titles, avatars, and signatures. If you don't like something that a moderator did, PM or email the moderator and try your best to resolve the problem or difference in private.
6] Promotion of sites or products is not permitted.
Advertisements are not allowed in this venue. No blatant advertising or solicitations of or for business is prohibited.
This includes, but not limited to, personal resumes and links to products or
services with which the poster is affiliated, whether or not a fee is charged
for the product or service. Spamming, in which a user posts the same message repeatedly, is also prohibited.
7] We retain the right to remove any posts and/or Members for any reason, without prior notice.
- PLEASE READ -
Members are welcome to read posts and though we encourage your active participation in the forum, it is not required. If you do participate by posting, however, we expect that on the whole you contribute something to the forum. This means that the bulk of your posts should not be in "fun" threads (e.g. Ankap, Keep & Kill, This or That, etc.). Further, while occasionally it is appropriate to simply voice your agreement or approval, not all of your posts should be of this variety: "LOL Member213!" "I agree."
If it is evident that a member is simply posting for the sake of posting, they will be removed.
8] These Rules & Guidelines may be amended at any time. (last update September 17, 2009)
If you believe an individual is repeatedly breaking the rules, please report to admin/moderator.

The Book of Eli
9/10
Great movie. Good script but doesn't leave you with anything to think about in the end, just straight forward. What saved this movie was Denzel's acting. I recommend this movie to anyone who likes adventure and action.

Meeting Joe Black
This movie is essentially about life and death. It's about a media tycoon, Bill Parrish (Anthony Hopkins), who one day has a hallucination and comes into contact with Death (Brad Pitt). Death comes calling with an proposition that he'll delay Bill's passing in exchange for a tour of life. I think this is the easiest way to describe the film. Many have not enjoyed the film but it is one that I enjoy very much. It's about 3 hours long but I find the performances by the actors to be fantastic. Also, the plot is very intriguing to me.

Re: Reviews & Ratings
My wife and i watched Avatar last night at the Imax. It really is a awsome experience. The storyline is predictable but it is the only real complaint one can make about this movie. The special effects cannot be compared to anything made before it. Most of the acting was done by computer animated characters but the humans did a good job to. Overall it was a great experience and i think it does a good job of drawing parallels to the present situation of one superpower dominating others. I strongly reccomend seeing it in 3d or imax format.

Caché
I have heard wonderful things about this film, and while watching it tonight, I knew I was in for something special. The film is beautifully put together, it is full of long, uncut takes, but there's also a reason behind the whole idea.
Michael Haneke introduces a handful of questions, but the film also seems to end with more questions than we started with. The film keeps you engaged, as we witness the torment our characters go through, and as the film progresses, we begin to piece together our ideas. Haneke, however, doesn't allow us to put them together easily. He presents endless possibilities, and in fact, nobody really knows how it ends.
On January 16, before he won the Golden Globe for The White Ribbon, he was asked about the ending of this film, for what I can presume would be the millionth time. Haneke said he wrote bits of dialogue for the two actors in the end, but decided against it and made the boys promise they would never tell. I spent an hour reading up on people's thoughts of the film, trying to solve the puzzle myself. That, in and of itself, should be a sign that a film is great, because it keeps me involved an hour (and possibly years to come) after it has ended.
