For Netflix people

 I just noticed that "Expelled" is available for instant viewing on Netflix, if anyone wants to see it.  I can't decide if I want to waste that much of my life, but who knows... I might get bored enough one day.

I could not get past the

I could not get past the first 10 minutes. Anyone who knows even the slightest bit about propoganda will be rolling thier eyes sooner than that.

It's inane, really. Just sad.

But you must feel you've got scripture on your side to come up with the tedious 'Adam and Eve not Adam and Steve' style arguments instead of just recognising that some people are different." - Douglas Murray

Don't waste your time.

Don't waste your time. Nothing new is presented, Stein doesn't even try to make the chore entertaining and - most disappointly - no argument is even given to the viewer. It's like watch an hours-long version of the wish-washy Conspiracy theory shows you can catch on History, but without the cheesy & outrageous bits to make you amused.

Here. I'll encapsulate the entire thing for you:

 

*Ben Stein marches up and down the street, stamping his feet as hard as he can*

"Stupid Darwinists! You're so stupid! I hate you! I don't believe you! I don't belieeeeeeve you! My friends think I'm right! You're a bunch of big fat bullies!

MY GOD IS AN AWESOME GOD AND HE MADE EVERYTHING!!!!"

 

...Would you like to listen to a longer, more drawn-out and repetitive version of the above? No? Sticking out tongue

Go d/l some porn instead like normal people do.

Quote:
"Natasha has just come up to the window from the courtyard and opened it wider so that the air may enter more freely into my room. I can see the bright green strip of grass beneath the wall, and the clear blue sky above the wall, and sunlight everywhere. Life is beautiful. Let the future generations cleanse it of all evil, oppression and violence, and enjoy it to the full."

- Leon Trotsky, Last Will & Testament
February 27, 1940

Are you nuts? Don't give

Are you nuts? Don't give those asshats any money. If you really feel the need to watch it get it from a torrent site.

 Why don't we just score

 Why don't we just score some weed, turn down the sound and see if it syncs up to Dark Side of the Moon or Brain Salad Surgery?

I think even porno movies have better quality than Ben Stein's piece of shit.

Well, "Expelled" would be an appropriate name for a scatalogical porn flick.

Have I missed something really important?  Is there a movie that syncs with Brain Salad Surgery?  I must know!

I'd love to see a critic say "That movie stank like if none of the toilets in Grand Central Station were flushed or cleaned for 30 years and were used at least as much as they are now. "
