<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR> There are other arguments for and against PJ & company that are far more "discussable" than yours - it seems like a rant which is a pain to argue against. <HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>That is very true, which leads me to wonder why this thread was begun in the first place. It's basically just another TTT - Overall Impressions thread, only it starts out by putting anyone who liked the movies even a little in an automatic defense mode. I don't think it's right to put forth your ideas like they are the absolute truth and anyone who disagrees is delusional or brainwashed (i.e., "Stop defending PJ"). Plus, in the end, what does this thread accomplish besides killing a skwerl?
