Of what I saw on the news, they had to create a big judicial problem so that they'd get their credits properly shown. A real artist cares not of money, but of respect.

Also, I don't quite get it about you're frustrations on canadian culture. Louis 19 is not "canadian culture", it's from Québec, which is a french province, totally different from the rest of Canada, and I believe it does stand out as a unique culture. We don't have many multi-million dollar productions, but all proportions kept, I believe there is more discovered talent up here then down in the United-States.
I said "Discovered talent" because I also some really great movies from the States who had very low budgets, and not much publicity. But small independant movies are often swept aside by the major-productions.
Hey, after all, the United-States brought us: - Universal studios, Tristar and etc.. - and Blockbuster (pro-censureship) - a lot of lobbying companies
Yes, I see a brilliant future, were are new ideas are strangled under censorship. Now, that's what I call a fubared culture. Drowned in cash.
I'm happy I live in Québec, we benefit of the national security of the United-States, so we have smaller military budget, and a _much_ better social environnement (education, hospitals, etc..).
Do americans ever make non-remake films?

EDtv
·
· Score: 1
The movie is a remake of "Louis IXX", and what I found very stupid, is that the producers of EdTV refuse to give the proper credit to the original authors..
Anyways, the original was really funny, and EdTV was "americanised", so I guess it must be also a pretty good laugh. But did they take out the sex scene at the end of the movie?:]
Everything compiled like a charm, it was the third time that I compile it and I was really impressed with what was done. Freshmeat.net renders perfectly, altough slashdot has a small problem with the text on the left side, and the buttons of the poll are kind of fscked up.. but who cares, I found it very fast, and the Gtk-themes work. *grin*
If big stupid companies keep up the paste, let's say I register the domain name "www.i_love_vodka.com", will I get sued in 4-5 months because a company claims to own the rights to the expression "i love vodka" ?
The name of the domain brought up a good point. It took me more than 5 minutes to realise that they were just pointing me to microsoft.com. I was even reading the copywright and I was lauging out loud. Then I realised it was the true (c) of m$:)
I really don't like the idea of a corporate company taking care of my server acces. A government a little less, but certainly not the US goverment (way too big and fscked up). And then again, smart cards aren't a real good solution, they always want statistics, and I find that very dangerous.
So rock-on for cookies, 4000 different passwords, and may I be the only one to grant myself access:]

It's one small step for man, on giant leap for humanity? :)
I was stuck learning VB for school, and what a pain it was, sure it's easy, but it screwed me up for when I started doing C and GTK..
It's almost as if VB is there to block your state of mind: you are now stuck in MS mode. exit loop is irrelevant, you will be assimilated.
All this to say that whatever the scenario, usually cash=patents .. so it's always the 2% that own everything.

Oh well, worth the laugh. Greets to the author.
