Thanks for your generous offer, I'll keep that in mind. I'm Becoming more and more a fan of Czech products, Jetbrains and Skoda rock too !

Yeah, I love Czech comedy sci-fi movies like:
I Killed Einstein, Gentlemen
Tomorrow I'll Wake Up and Scald Myself with Tea
You Are a Widow, Sir
And also Zeman movies, really great.

As I recall very boring. Saying quite a bit since when I saw it (not when it was released) I would watch anything with enthusiasm.

Yes, that's the problem for most people, obviously this film is from another (Soviet) era.
But I always admire film makers that have the audacity to put lengthy scenes in their films.
Think the Soviet film committee was not pleased with some scenes either.
Speaking of lengthy scenes, Michael Haneke's film Caché also has a very lengthy scene in which you only see a house in a dark street for minutes, and nothing happens, love that scene !

I saw the US clone (didn't like it very much). It is definitely on my list, but I have to persuade The Wife.

As a software developer, I write a lot of procedures, does that make me a proctologist?

As long as you avoid re-entrant code you should be fine.

Only if your procedures include the proper ointments ...

As a VB developer I write a lot of Dim statements.

Further to the conversation immediately below.
On Monday morning at the office someone walks in and says "I just saw X and it was great"
Would anyone here say - That movie sucked and "you've no taste"
Yet people will say it on the webz.
Amazing isn't it?
I'm pretty sure I would not like to live in a world in which I would never be offended.
I am absolutely certain I don't want to live in a world in which you would never be offended.

I would. But more than likely I wouldn't have seen X. Or even V for that matter. I might need to see M sometime though.

Really - instead of disagreeing on the movie you would go right to a personal attack?
Oh - MM was better.

Listen Piebald - I know things seem pretty black and white to you but I have to say - having grown up with that last name - your little insult wouldn't even make the top 100!

I have in the past told a colleague that a particular film or TV show was pretty poor (IMHO). But I would not accuse them of having no taste; it's just that our tastes differ.

The thing is, IRL and F2F you can say "That movie sucked - you've no taste" in many ways, and your body language and tone of voice makes it clear. It could be aggressive or humorous. But when you write that in a forum comment, no-one has any idea how you meant it, and people generally assume the worst (paranoid little things that lots of people are.) Yes, that's what smileys were invented for, but when firing comments off people can often not bother with them, or simply forget that the other person can't see the big grin on their face...

DRHuff wrote: and "you've no taste" depending on who told that, yes I would say it. On people I don't have that much to do with, then I would moderate that part of the sentence.
Additional note:
I find abit amusing your post regarding your signature

I usually do exactly that.
"X was a bad movie and you should feel bad.
Shame, I actually did kind of like you before this.
I thought you were better than this."
Such comments are usually hailed with much laughter
