If by propaganda film you mean the most effortless summation of an entire genre in a single film, a perfection shorn of frivolous nonsense, a distillation of what is a film in the contemporary sense, of what is necessary and what is not then yes it is just a propaganda film.

My love for both at the same time is not mutually exclusive either, as everyone is equally flammable to a degree!

Everyone includes me and Seil. Case closed.
Fire is basically just an explosion for pussies. Harden up.

And you find nothing subliminal about Russians being protrayed as cheating amoral dicks that can only be beaten by good old american hard work... in Siberia. Because we all know the soviet union loved spending tons of money on top of the line equipment.

I like secular legal systems.

I like mint chocolate chip ice cream, hot curry, most sushi (including the ginger and wasabi), rice pudding, fried rice, teriyaki chicken, and chevre cheese. Not all in the same meal, mind you, but individually.

I love english muffins with honey and Darwyn Cooke's run on The Spirit.

only one of those things is actually good. And I'm not telling you which

I like hating barrels and sucking up to people.

Also this game called Gemfire I thought it was pretty boss it was on the Nintendo Entertainment System. It was kind of like Ogre Battle except almost nothing like it except it was a strategy game.

Oh, I've been watching Battlestar Galactica lately, it's pretty good. Do that one.

Also Grand Theft Auto.

Oh boy, let me count this one.

1. Violent and encourages crime by making it a game.
2. Vice City added on by allowing you to get, bang, than kill a prositute all for money.
3. San Andreas Hot Coffee Mod, need I say more?

These are the reason WHY I will never touch this series. It objectifies women and makes crime look fun when it isn't.

Yes. This is my honest opinion of this game series.

You must be against every RPG ever given that your party goes around stealing stuff from every chest, crate, pot, drawer, and even bush.

Man, I was looking for actual reasons to hate GTA, not all the reasons to LOVE IT.
