    FFX changed the way i looked at death, which is pretty sad i guess. but the ending was so awesome, it kept in a " " type mood for a while.

    I wanted Auron's sunglasses.
    Jack: How do you know?

    Will: It's more of a feeling really.

    Jack: Well, that's not scientific. Feeling isn't knowing. Feeling is believing. If you believe it, you can't know because there's no knowing what you believe. Then again, no one should believe what they know either. Once you know anything that anything becomes unbelievable if only by virtue of the fact you now... know it. You know?

    Will: No.

    If Demolition Man were remade today

    Huxley: What's wrong? You broke contact.
    Spartan: Contact? I didn't even touch you.
    Huxley: Don't you want to make love?
    Spartan: Is that what you call this? Why don't we just do it the old-fashioned way?
    Huxley: NO!
    Spartan: Whoa! Okay, calm down.
    Huxley: Don't tell me to calm down!
    Spartan: What's gotten into you? 'Cause it sure as hell wasn't me.
    Huxley: Physical relations in the way of intercourse are no longer acceptable John Spartan.
    Spartan: What? Why the hell not?
    Huxley: It's the law, John. And for your information, the very idea that you suggested it makes me feel personally violated.
    Spartan: Wait a minute... violated? Huxley what the hell are you accusing me of here?
    Huxley: You need to leave, John.
    Spartan: But Huxley.
    Huxley: Get out!
    Moments later Spartan is arrested for "violating" Huxley.

    By the way, that's called satire. Get over it.

    It reinforced what I allready knew.

    A few bullet points-

    1) Heroes and Martyrs are different. A martyr is willing to die for a cause; a hero is willing to live for one which is by far the more difficult of the two.

    2a) Killing your enemies is a good thing. It keeps them from coming back and screwing with you and your loved ones later.

    2b) Make sure after you kill your enemies that they stay dead or they'll keep coming back.

    3) That the Truth is, generally speaking, a wholly different thing from "common knowledge." People collect a lot of different facts they "know" are "true" only for the Truth to be completely different.

    4) Never doubt that a small, dedicated band of individuals can change the world.

    5) Always question. Never take anything at face value. If someone says "The sky is blue" go look, one day you may just be surprised.

    I learned that if you try really hard, you can breath under water.

    That the church is keeping important pieces of information from the masses.I also learned that if you have enough faith, you can walk(and dance) on water.

    This game taught me alot of things:
    -Just because they seem living doesn't mean they are.
    -The insides of giant creatures are filled with monsters, pillars, and cities.
    -Right between your dad's heart and his right lung is a bad ass sword.
    -My final enemy can be as mundane as a symbol.
    -It is possible to breath underwater.
    -Sacrificing your friends is okay, especially if you summon them.
    -A machina-concious nation does not mind an airship in the sky.
    -Just because they have long, flowing hair doesn't mean they're as cool as Sephiroth.

    I totally changed the way I view the laws of physics. Simply, they don't really exist!

    I learned that if you try really hard, you can defy gravity and do some 'impossible' stunts. (Jecht shot anyone? Remember that scene on the boat in the beginning? Yeah. Tidus flew about 20 feet in the air, PAUSED, then started SPINNING, did a FLIP, and kicked a ball. Wow.)

    I never realized that people could hold their breath so long (hmm... 20 minutes, no struggling, even under the pressure of an intense swimming sport like blitzball?), and swim so incredibly fast.

    Blitzballs are amazing objects. They fly at amazing speeds (even underwater when THROWN!) and almost never miss. They always come right back into your hand when thrown and bounced off something.

    note: Pretty graphics, yes, but still far from realistic in any sense.


    After FFX, I came to the realization that people don't care when insanely unrealistic concepts are put in games. No matter how rediculous the thought that tidus can swim 50 mph underwater for 20 minutes is, they (and I) don't care, as long as the game is fun. I knew this before, but I thought there would be more complaining, but it turns out no one cares, really.

    Heey, Auron is cool.
    Besides, the arm isn't broken, he uses it in battle.

    But the bottle does intrigue me....
