I love this movie. One of my favorites. Rest in Peace Heath.

Your performance will go down in movie history as the Joker.

with your usual condescending bullshit towards anyone who doesn’t share your opinion on something subjective. You come completely unhinged when someone thinks something you like, sucks. It’s comical, and you are known for just that on BBI.

Also, your quote below from the deGrom thread:

“Once again, I dont like the way they handled things and I dont think they have any leverage. This will blow over by tomorrow and there is literally noting deGrom can do about it but deGrom could have handled this better IMO.”

It didn’t blow over and won’t for a while. Are you ever wrong?


Any rational person reading this thread can see the only person ranting or "unhinged" is you. Nobody was talking to you or even engaging with you. You came at me three times before I even responded as I was having a discussion with other posters. You are a bull in a china shop. A complete mess. Even worse. You are disingenuous and sloppy with your commentary and lie through your teeth.

This is your quote from the deGrom thread that I keep bringing up that you have denied ten times.

"Fiscally speaking he has zero leverage but that doesn’t always matter. His trade value also decreases the unhappier he is, also leverage."

I laughed about how you think somebody's unhappiness could decrease a players value and you still keep denying it.

As for the quote you just posted. I immediately clarified in my next statement that I was referring to the front office, not the media. But of course you know that... you just have no idea how to win any sort of discussion or argument without getting dirty.

Please just go back to hating Game of Thrones, Hating TDK, kicking your dog, or whatever else you do with your spare time. You are a waste of my time.

but 2 star players in other sports named Irving and Leonard got traded for pennies on the dollar the second they became unhappy.

Now do I think deGrom reaches that point? No. But it’s possible. You asked for an example and I gave you several, his happiness being one of them. You may not like that answer, but theres precedence of it in sports and 2 shining examples in the last calendar year alone.

I don’t hate GoT, I just don’t suck off every scene as the best in TV history. You know that, but it ruins your narrative so why bother owning up to it. I’m hard on the show because I expect better, the horror.

You are incredibly bothered by people not liking what you like. You come across as psychotic, unreasonable, and unhinged. You simply want to be right at all times and never own up to anything. I just showed you that you are the liar stating here that deGrom would blow over in a week, when I quoted you saying “by tomorrow”. Maybe you had a knee jerk reaction, but that’s exactly what you posted and haven’t owned up to it.

And lastly, you stated several times that DeGroms value will be just as high in a year. Then you back tracked after being called out on it by other posters. You are the one with thr nickname on this board and that’s because you are a psycho.

But we don’t disagree on everything. We share similar views on Star Wars, for example, so am I being a wannabe critic right along with you?

Oh that's rich. So now you are admitting you said it and are giving me examples of other players after you told me you never said it at all 3-4 times now that you've been called out (in other sports no less!!) Part of the problem discussing anything with you is you dont have the abstract capability to even make comparisons synonymously or logically. This is a perfect example. In football, players DO hold out. I said ten times theoretically if deGrom did hold out it would give him leverage, but that almost never happens in baseball, and would NEVER happen with deGrom so your point is moot... and quite frankly stupid. Another perfect example is in this very thread in a discussion about the RT score, which is combination of every professional writer's review on the planet. You tried to say that that would be no different than random people giving reviews about restaurants on Yelp. This is an awful comparison because the reviews are not being done by professionals. If there was some sort of app that had a raw score of reviews from only the top chefs and best in the industry than that would make sense. I honestly, dont even think you see it though.

I also never said deGrom's value would be as high in a year. I said theoretically it could be based on there being different players available, neds, and wants next year... but again... you know that. Just another example of you fighting dirty.

I could care less about being right but if you are going to engage with me and tell me Im wrong, Im going to stand my ground and explain my reasoning. Thats kinda what a forum is all about.

Now please acknowledge that you are sucking up a freaking batman page with this incessant nonsense and likely annoying the hell out of everyone else who could care less about your pissing contest. Just let it die. Like I said, we can both have our opinions without engaging going forward. No big deal.
I never denied it  
UConn4523 : 7/18/2018 7:32 pm : link
I stated it was a reason of many, several times. You ignored the other reasons, of course, that's your MO. If deGrom is unhappy i'm not sure an unstable franchise like the Mets can properly handle it. Add in being a year older next year and him likely reaching his peak performance, its logical to assume that his unhappiness may make the Mets seek a trade. If he was happy and content, and never complained about his contract situation, its reasonable to assume that there would be no friction. Make sense?

I hope for your sake deGrom stays a Mets, pitching amazingly well, and does so for a long time. Anything short of that and it will be meltdown mode. You really don't handle adversity well.

As for this thread, still curious what was wrong with any of my comments. In sum they were:

Batman Begins was the best of the bunch, I really enjoyed it. Great story telling and introduction of a character.
TDK a good but very overrated movie.
TDKR was a mess, Nolan's worst movie by a mile, the CGI was miserable.

Add in that there is no consensus at all on this thread, it seems pretty split between the people that loved it and those who thought it was ok or bad, so I really don't know what you are getting at.

I remember when Get Out came out. Thy hype was insane. Amazing RT score of 99. I loved it, but many on BBI didn't. My response to that was that I get why some may not like it, it was very strange, kinda got a bit pretentious, but I gave it huge points for taking on a topic that is rarely seen in the genre and/or never done well. I thought if they left the original ending people would have enjoyed it more. I didn't attack posters who disagreed with my OPINION of a movie and I certainly didn't point to critics to prove my point.

This shit is subjective, get over it.

No. It doesn't makes sense. Your entire first paragraph doesn't address how him being unhappy lowers his value to other teams. More twisting and turning and BS from you but hey... at least you figured out a way to keep going with deGrom shit on this thread. You are embarrassing. As for deGrom getting traded... Ive said many times I am in favor of it.

I could care less about your opinion of the Batman movies or what the "consensus" was here. Nobody said you said anything wrong. Nobody was even talking to you. You are living in fairy tale land. I said I liked the third movie and you followed with it by telling me how much it was shit. I was talking to other posters. I did make a comment how BBI loves to shit on popular things... its often true but it was a fucking joke. Get a damn life.
I talked about  
UConn4523 : 7/18/2018 8:06 pm : link
his age and having a year less of being under cheaper control as reasons why his cost would go down. You know, logic. I spoke about unhappiness as a factor, not a focal point. If you honestly believe I think unhappy = automatic trade than I really don't know what to tell you. I've explained myself thoroughly, if you don't want to acknowledge that, its your prerogative.

Time to go kick my dog.
Nobody denied his cost would go down over time...lol  
ZGiants98 : 7/18/2018 8:16 pm : link
I simply said his return would still be massive through at least next year. History shows top players traded with at least a year of control or more bring back an absolute haul. The funny thing... I could care less about what you think about deGrom and his situation. You arent a Mets fan and you likely have very little understanding of the Mets organization or the situation with deGrom to begin with. I was simply pointing out how disingenuous you are and the tactics you will employ to try to win an argument is weak and ridiculous.

But more deGrom... more deGrom... Maybe when your done kicking your dog and you can come back and bring up more deGrom stuff again... deGrom... deGrom... deGrom... lol.

my interest in that thread was to discuss the potential outcomes. In fact, my very first post on that thread was a cordial response to you, as were my subsequent posts until you flew off the rails. I'm not interested in being right, because you are right, i'm not a Mets can and I don't care how it plays out as its nothing but entertainment for me (as is all of sports).
Just stop..

But I liked the Dark Knight but I actually enjoyed the Dark Knight Rises and Batman Begins more. It felt like TDK lasted forever and I know Katie Holmes gets roasted for acting like a wooden board, but she was way hotter than Gyllenhal. That change in actress ruined that aspect of the story for me-I was actually interested in the Rachel-Bruce relationship coming out of Batman Begins and by the time they blew her up, I couldn’t care less.

Sounds silly to complain about in a Batman movie but changing the actress there basically eliminated the emotion (for me) in that entire part of the story and that was really a huge arc in the film.

I completely agree in regards to Rachel. It's the one thing that still bothers. I still loved TDK though.
I thought TDK was just okay....

I really liked The Last Jedi contrary to popular opinion.

Interestingly enough, I just check on Rotten Tomatoes and The Last Jedi has a certified fresh score of 91% of critics liking the movie.
