That's true they are archaic.

We don't need to go back that far.

That's hilarious.

Yeah, so then people can complain about how "insincere" he was and continue to complain about his actions. Yeah, that would really help.

I've come to realize that no matter what you do as a celebrity (or famous person) you are always torn to shreds over everything. I actually appreciate Harry in a way, because he doesn't put up some retarded fake royal image; he does whatever the hell he wants to do. He has a right to be whoever he wants to be, and then live with whatever apparent "consequences" he gets. Maybe he doesn't give a shit what the masses think about him? That would be refreshing.

Question to anyone who knows: Was Harry the one who went to places in Africa (or wherever that was again) to spend some time with the children there? Or was that his brother?

PEACE, Mike

There's a difference between not caring what people think about you and offending and upsetting millions of people so you can look "cool".

He was just doing what he wanted to do. If he wants to do something stupid, so be it. If he cared about keeping up some fake image, he would have been politically correct and not worn the costume. If the only use of the royal family is to attract tourists, then Harry is certainly doing better than any other royal family member at the moment.

PEACE, Mike

Doing something stupid would be like wearing a dress or something not pretending to be a nazi trooper. There's a fine line and Harry crossed it. You probably wouldn't understand because many canadians now-a-days don't have that many ties to WWII.

Did I say it was not horrible what he did? Nope. Nice try, though. Also, I have family ties to WWII, so it's something I know about.

PEACE, Mike

i think EVERYONE has family ties to World War 2....it was like the biggest war in history.

This might be an idea I also would applaud if he didn't trumpet (and practically glamorize) an event that was one of the worst atrocities of all time. I know that Prince Harry completely morally offended me, and I personally don't feel he had any right to behave like that, free speech or not.

You know, i think the point of the whole Prince Harry think is that a BRITISH Royal is wearing a Nazi outfit, if i was American, i would not find this offensive, hell i don't even find it offensive as a Scot. But i know that he has offended alot of British people because someone who represents the country to the global eye has been caught, drunk again, in a Nazi outfit.

Prince Harry is living life like a celebrity whos rejected fame. But he should learn that whenever hes alive, hes going to be photographed.

Yeah, and people who go around insulting homosexuals or verbally attacking people who have abortions, and people who are racists and sexists, and so on, all morally offend me, free speech or not. But I have to deal with it, and hope the people get what they deserve some day. I didn't say I think what he did was right, so people are really twisting my words around.

No offense to people, but KJ is becoming almost just as bad as BOM ever was. I feel like people think they can do and say whatever they want now that they are at a really relaxed, hardly moderated forums. It doesn't make things fun. Just my opinion, of course. It's my problem, and I'll just chat less if I need to.

Anyways Libs, I didn't mean to offend you if I did. I wasn't trying to justify Harry's actions.

PEACE, Mike

What do you mean by this? How did you get this impression from this thread? It's pretty civilized.....

Well MikeQ .... just because people want something to say doesn't mean we're gonna stop them ...... some people here have passed ridiculus statements and each time that has happened, they've not only been called out but have been insulted on that front ... and really, the way i see it, i htink thats pretty decent ...

I've spent little time in this thread but honestly, throughout kj's life, I've seen a level of discipline and mutual respect that I never really saw at BOM to begin with .... frankly, that could change but so far, everything on this forum seems pretty tame ....

Wait, so is your only basis for the comment about KJ becomming as bad as BOM that it's too relaxed? And hardly moderated? I beg to differ with the "hardly moderated" bit. What aren't we taking care of? And, even if it isn't moderated well-enough, at least Eagle had the sense not to give the position to a mod who would close threads simply because he didn't like the ideas presented in them (*cough (JMP) *cough*).

Relaxation doesn't take the fun away from anything. I don't think the mods are intruding in the fun, and, if anything, it's the users who aren't "fun". But, frankly, everyone else seems to enjoy themselves, so I don't really see what you're getting at, unless it's a direct stab at the mods (in which you can directly tell us what the issue is and what bothers you).

The fact is, Mike, that comment came outta nowhere. I think everyone in this thread has done a pretty good job at not getting too hostile with one another and keeping it together.

I have to step into the defense here...
KJ is nowhere NEARLY as negative and "cabin fevered" as Box Office Mojo is. Whilst there may be the same opinonated ego clashes on the forums, they are not as frequent or vapid as they were at BOM, and generally, whilst people definately differ here, i think the community that transplanted from BOM to here has been generally more accepting and friendly than it was before. And why do you think its not as fun Mike? Because your not moderating perhaps?

If Box Office Mojo wants to be a corporation, then it needs to set up an office, close down the forums and provide stats. Nothing else. Rather than screw around with people and garner itself a bad reputation. I had left BOM long before then because, to be frank, I just didn't like it. The community was immature and unfriendly and the moderation was absurdly controlling. It was like one big ego trip with no where to go but continously press the reset button. And sometimes slip onto the "erase all users" one too.

KJ struck gold when "He who we do not speak of" went nuts, again and the mass exodus begun. The site staff here are really friendly and just generally good people, and they deserve a community way more than BOM does.

At the end of the day, most people are here to talk about films, and thats a universal thing on these forums. No one wants tangled up in moderation wars, administration clashes and user ban controversies. They just want to come on the net, and have a chat about something they have in common.

Infact, in all my years online, i can say Boxofficemojo was the least fun place to be.

P.S whats with the new layout over there? Its awful to try and read anything.

hmm .. i might but have no knowledge of anyone in my family who ever participated ...

world war was fought in specific regions ... some areas were only indrectly involved (South Asia from where the british troop made certain military officials go .... other than that, the onvolvement was quite minimal in terms of actual warfare really and participation)

Well nearly everyones grandparents around here were in the war. Probobly because im British. Even those who werent in the war had to experience the bombings.

true ... but again, the war was fought mainly between a bunch of countries but not all ... a few remain pretty much ineffected and at most, only indrectly involved ....

See it's stuff like this that makes see harry as even stupider.. For someone in the royal family, he surely knows crap all about the british citizens. I think he needs to be fired a la Donald Trump.

Meh ...

I find what he did rather amusing .... but thats just me ...

My two cents that no one asked for... clearly MikeQ's put down of WoKJ was an attempt to deflect from an argument he was losing and a pseudo-reason to back out of the argument he can't win.

that was more direct than I expected ..... I bow to you.

Let this moment be marked in history .... bABA himself bows to TM .. such events rarely occur. Thou hast' been blessed
