Welcome to X-Crescence, which is from the word excrescence, which is defined as "An outgrowth or enlargement, especially an abnormal one, such as a wart."

Well, this is an outgrowth from the X-Boards proper.

This is where you pretty much can post whatever you want.

Almost anything goes here.

You can have arguments here, you can talk nonsense here, you can insult someone, you can use profanity, can talk about any topic that you would like.

Essentially, you'd have to do something pretty damn bad before I ever even got involved moderating this thread. And, well, you folks know what constitutes "pretty damn bad."

So, basically, it is yours to do with as you please, so, well, enjoy.

-Brian

Its not bad. I've watched it 20 times because i was a male cheerleader and every girl i date feels the need to rent the movie and surprise me with it....:rolleyes:

The DS Lite looks too "we'll be cool so we'll make it look like a Mac" for me. That's my beef with Nintendo: they just want things to look cool for novelty's sake, but done have the nuts and bolts of good, 3rd party gaming.


They are making some fun games for the DS, like Tetris DS and some fun mind/puzzle games and the like, too. But it all feels so "palm pilot" to me. I don't feel the compelling need to spend $150 + games for just the sake of novelty.

I prefer it. When I hear "the American Way" I think of eating a 20pc chicken nuggets (with honey mustard and barbecue) while watching America's Next Top Model in a Hummer powered by illegal immigrants.

"The American Way" is so fucking nebulous, archaic, and passe that it's a cliche. And a cliche, I think, is the antithesis of what Singer wants to do with one of the most stereotypically crap-hap-happiest super-duper golden boy characters in the existence of pop culture.

Jesus. You sound like a harpie.

Just because they changed it doesn't mean it was due to pressure from "PC Police." Like I said, Singer likes to make human characters out of superhuman properties. Something as corny as "Truth, Justice, and the American Way" is such a farking cliche it's practically eye-roll inducing to this casual viewer.

And I am a casual viewer. I have no interest in Superman at all as a character.

"Truth... Justice... and the AMERICAN WAY!!!" sounds so Cold WarSMASHCOMMUNISM!!! I expect to see Superman advertising Lucky Strike cigarettes throughout the movie. Heaven forbid Singer, et al, may want to change things a bit.

I don't dispute that America has good founding principles. But I think "the American Way" is outdated and archaic. It reeks of Cold War, 1950s thinking. Democracy or communism. Us vs. Them. Black and white. Crappy dualistic thinking.

And "The American Way" isn't nearly as monolithic as it was back when the phrase was coined. There is no "American Way." But, you might be right. Tell me what is the "American Way," and then I might reevaluate my opinion.

See I think it was changed by the PC Police. They are doing a worldwide release w/ this movie and well America is pretty much not looked upon fondly anywhere outside the Mason Dixon line. So if you have a character advertised as Truth, Justice and the American Way, well most people now don't associate Truth and Justice w/ the American Way. It could hurt sales. I've heard dumber reasoning.

Well, given that the "PC Police" would be an outside party -- and would have drummed up press about it -- I highly doubt that's the case. It's an internal decision, by internal minds. Sure, it might be corporate. But, really, I don't see how Superman stands for "The American Way," anyhow. If we're doing a Captain America movie, that's a different story.

Face it: "The American Way" was always a myopic slogan for Supes. He may have started out strictly American (even though he's a walking Moses allegory), but he's been a global hero for decades now.

Cap, on the other hand, IS America.

Uncle Nobs
06-15-2006, 11:36 PM
Hell, I'd even argue that he's no longer a global hero, but a universal hero now. He's become an abstract, a symbol to represent a basic concept: Hope, in all it's forms. "All that is good" certainly sums that up well.

Face it: "The American Way" was always a myopic slogan for Supes. He may have started out strictly American (even though he's a walking Moses allegory), but he's been a global hero for decades now.

Cap, on the other hand, IS America.


I think the american way buisness was added like in ww2, like in god we trust on currency with the cold war.


I mean, in Supermans first issue, isnt he going after a corrupt senator.

Superman doesn't belong to any country or way of thinking. He's for everyone.

Sure, in the same way that if I see someone drowning, I'm going to save that person's life, regardless of his/her country of origin. That doesn't automatically make me a global citizen over an American citizen, though, and it's no different for Superman. We've seen enough of his upbringing and particularly his philosophy over the years to know that he indeed harbors great loyalty to this country, and that he considers himself first and foremost an American citizen.

More than that, though, I'm just annoyed at the alteration to the slogan. I know this opinion is sometimes about as popular as a fart in church, but you simply don't mess with the classics. Period. Either have him stand for truth, justice, and the American way, or don't use the phrasing at all... either way is fine, really, but half-assing it just isn't going to cut it.

Regardless, I don't want to be responsible for another debate about nations in X-Cres, so I'm heading for bed... night, all.

Heroism isn't an exclusively American trait.

Superman himself is classic, it's best not to mess with him, but the "classic" phrase no longer applies in a world where the "American way" could mean any number of negative things. Superman is a universal force for good, and the United States doesn't exactly have the market cornered on "goodness".

Two scientists were racing
For the good of all mankind
Both of them side by side
So determined
Locked in heated battle
For the cure that is their prize
But it's so dangerous
But they're determined

Theirs is to win
If it kills them
They're just humans
With wives and children

Upwards to the vanguard
Where the pressure is too high
Under the microscope
Hope against hope

Forging for the future
But to sacrifice their lives
Both of them side by side
So determined

Theirs is to win
If it kills them
They're just humans
With wives and children

Theirs is to win
It will kill them
They're just humans
With wives and children

Lily, rosemary, and jack of hearts....what is this from? I can almost make the connection...

The festival was over, the boys were all plannin' for a fall,
The cabaret was quiet except for the drillin' in the wall.
The curfew had been lifted and the gamblin' wheel shut down,
Anyone with any sense had already left town.
He was standin' in the doorway lookin' like the Jack of Hearts.

He moved across the mirrored room, "Set it up for everyone," he said,
Then everyone commenced to do what they were doin' before he turned their heads.
Then he walked up to a stranger and he asked him with a grin,
"Could you kindly tell me, friend, what time the show begins?"
Then he moved into the corner, face down like the Jack of Hearts.

Backstage the girls were playin' five-card stud by the stairs,
Lily had two queens, she was hopin' for a third to match her pair.
Outside the streets were fillin' up, the window was open wide,
A gentle breeze was blowin', you could feel it from inside.
Lily called another bet and drew up the Jack of Hearts.

Big Jim was no one's fool, he owned the town's only diamond mine,
He made his usual entrance lookin' so dandy and so fine.
With his bodyguards and silver cane and every hair in place,
He took whatever he wanted to and he laid it all to waste.
But his bodyguards and silver cane were no match for the Jack of Hearts.

Rosemary combed her hair and took a carriage into town,
She slipped in through the side door lookin' like a queen without a crown.
She fluttered her false eyelashes and whispered in his ear,
"Sorry, darlin', that I'm late," but he didn't seem to hear.
He was starin' into space over at the Jack of Hearts.

"I know I've seen that face before," Big Jim was thinkin' to himself,
"Maybe down in Mexico or a picture up on somebody's shelf."
But then the crowd began to stamp their feet and the house lights did dim
And in the darkness of the room there was only Jim and him,
Starin' at the butterfly who just drew the Jack of Hearts.

Lily was a princess, she was fair-skinned and precious as a child,
She did whatever she had to do, she had that certain flash every time she smiled.
She'd come away from a broken home, had lots of strange affairs
With men in every walk of life which took her everywhere.
But she'd never met anyone quite like the Jack of Hearts.

The hangin' judge came in unnoticed and was being wined and dined,
The drillin' in the wall kept up but no one seemed to pay it any mind.
It was known all around that Lily had Jim's ring
And nothing would ever come between Lily and the king.
No, nothin' ever would except maybe the Jack of Hearts.

Rosemary started drinkin' hard and seein' her reflection in the knife,
She was tired of the attention, tired of playin' the role of Big Jim's wife.
She had done a lot of bad things, even once tried suicide,
Was lookin' to do just one good deed before she died.
She was gazin' to the future, riding on the Jack of Hearts.

Lily washed her face, took her dress off and buried it away.
"Has your luck run out?" she laughed at him, "Well, I guess you must
have known it would someday.
Be careful not to touch the wall, there's a brand-new coat of paint,
I'm glad to see you're still alive, you're lookin' like a saint."
Down the hallway footsteps were comin' for the Jack of Hearts.

The backstage manager was pacing all around by his chair.
"There's something funny going on," he said, "I can just feel it in the air."
He went to get the hangin' judge, but the hangin' judge was drunk,
As the leading actor hurried by in the costume of a monk.
There was no actor anywhere better than the Jack of Hearts.

Lily's arms were locked around the man that she dearly loved to touch,
She forgot all about the man she couldn't stand who hounded her so much.
"I've missed you so," she said to him, and he felt she was sincere,
But just beyond the door he felt jealousy and fear.
Just another night in the life of the Jack of Hearts.

No one knew the circumstance but they say that it happened pretty quick,
The door to the dressing room burst open and a cold revolver clicked.
And Big Jim was standin' there, ya couldn't say surprised,
Rosemary right beside him, steady in her eyes.
She was with Big Jim but she was leanin' to the Jack of Hearts.

Two doors down the boys finally made it through the wall
And cleaned out the bank safe, it's said that they got off with quite a haul.
In the darkness by the riverbed they waited on the ground
For one more member who had business back in town.
But they couldn't go no further without the Jack of Hearts.

The next day was hangin' day, the sky was overcast and black,
Big Jim lay covered up, killed by a penknife in the back.
And Rosemary on the gallows, she didn't even blink,
The hangin' judge was sober, he hadn't had a drink.
The only person on the scene missin' was the Jack of Hearts.

The cabaret was empty now, a sign said, "Closed for repair,"
Lily had already taken all of the dye out of her hair.
She was thinkin' 'bout her father, who she very rarely saw,
Thinkin' 'bout Rosemary and thinkin' about the law.
But, most of all she was thinkin' 'bout the Jack of Hearts.

You'll wind up like the wreck you hide behind that mask you use

And did you think this fool could never win
Well look at me, I'm coming back again
I got a taste of love in a simple way
And if you need to know while I'm still standing you just fade away

Don't you know I'm still standing better than I ever did
Looking like a true survivor, feeling like a little kid
I'm still standing after all this time
Picking up the pieces of my life without you on my mind

I'm still standing yeah yeah yeah
I'm still standing yeah yeah yeah

Once I never could hope to win
You starting down the road leaving me again
The threats you made were meant to cut me down
And if our love was just a circus you'd be a clown by now

Daylight turns to moonlight - and I'm at my best
Praising the way it all works - gazing upon the rest
The cool before the warm
The calm after the storm
I wish to stay forever - letting this be my food
But I'm caught up in a whirlwind and my ever changing moods
Bitter turns to sugar - some call a passive tune
But the day things turn sweet - for me won't be too soon
The hush before the silence
The winds after the blast
I wish we'd move together - this time the bosses sued
But we're caught up in the wilderness and an ever changing mood
Teardrops turn to children - who've never had the time
To commit the sins they pay for through - another's evil mind
The love after the hate
The love we leave too late
I wish we'd wake up one day - an' everyone feel moved
But we're caught up in the dailies and an ever changing mood

Evil turns to statues - and masses form a line
But I know which way I'd run to if the choice was mine
The past is knowledge - the present our mistake
And the future we always leave too late
I wish we'd come to our senses and see there is no truth
In those who promote the confusion for this ever changing mood

When I think of those East End lights, muggy nights
The curtains drawn in the little room downstairs
Prima Donna lord you really should have been there
Sitting like a princess perched in her electric chair
And it's one more beer and I don't hear you anymore
We've all gone crazy lately
My friends out there rolling round the basement floor

And someone saved my life tonight sugar bear
You almost had your hooks in me didn't you dear
You nearly had me roped and tied
Altar-bound, hypnotized
Sweet freedom whispered in my ear
You're a butterfly
And butterflies are free to fly
Fly away, high away, bye bye

I never realised the passing hours of evening showers
A slip noose hanging in my darkest dreams
I'm strangled by your haunted social scene
Just a pawn out-played by a dominating queen
It's four o'clock in the morning
Damn it listen to me good
I'm sleeping with myself tonight
Saved in time, thank God my music's still alive

And I would have walked head on into the deep end of the river
Clinging to your stocks and bonds
Paying your H.P. demands forever
They're coming in the morning with a truck to take me home
Someone saved my life tonight, someone saved my life tonight
Someone saved my life tonight, someone saved my life tonight
Someone saved my life tonight
So save your strength and run the field you play alone
