    Let's pull out our friend, common sense.


    Common Sense likes to find nuances between sentences we've seen before and possible explanations behind them:

    <!--QuoteBegin--></div><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td><b>QUOTE</b> </td></tr><tr><td id='QUOTE'><!--QuoteEBegin-->A hero called Harley played by Rutger Hauer, <b>Kim Catrall's breasts (before she went all saggy and "mature"), </b>Pete Postlethwaite and a gatling shotgun.<!--QuoteEnd--></td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'><!--QuoteEEnd-->

    This tells you it's obviously a movie, if you can't tell by actors alone: see bolded area - you can't see breasts of any kind in a book or audio story.

    Common Sense suggests you refer to the first post, re-read it and try to pick out important phrases, such as:

    <!--QuoteBegin--></div><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td><b>QUOTE</b> </td></tr><tr><td id='QUOTE'><!--QuoteEBegin-->Please feel free to post other laudation for this gem below if you have seen it and wish to comment. <!--QuoteEnd--></td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'><!--QuoteEEnd-->

    Note that it doesn't say "Please feel free to post irrelevant pictures of a padlock and proclaim you have no idea what's going on."




    However, a nice:
    "What's this movie about, since I've never heard of it and you've piqued my interests with the words "breasts" and "gatling shotgun"; or
    "Could you please elaborate on this movie's premise?"
    <span style='font-size:2pt;line-height:100%'>If this sounds overly harsh - perhaps I've been up to late - but it is not intended this way; I'm also aware you're saying " Lock this, or give us more info" but it is not a very good way enquire about new information. On another note, who leaves their keys in their padlock - symbolism suggests, being that the keys are right there, you don't really want the thread locked, you want people to know that it can be locked, but we all have the key to a successful thread...man that's deep.


    ...or something, maybe I need to sleep. </span>

    [both of which I'd like to ask at this time...since I've never heard of this movie (...or the actors - except Kim Catrall rings a bell).]


    Hopefully we'll get more information about the movie, and more people to realize posting pictures of locks and saying "WTH is going on!?!?!" don't provoke good conversation.

    Well, I figured since he brought out the padlock he might have just skimmed the first sentence and left it.


    Pffft, where are these people, leaving us hanging on their thread of movie information - not to return when we request elaboration... It's maddening!

    Incidentally, 5.2 (the IMDB rating for Split Second), is unfair and the sort of rating given by people who think the Matrix trilogy is the last word in intelligent, well-plotted sci-fi, or that describing something as homosexual is intelligent, piercing critique.

    No, but I know what imdb is, since I would expect the person who posted a thread to post a better description (since it sounds like a terrible version of the terrible movie waterworld with a monster thrown in from that one line review).

    Plus, there's no mention of the all-powerful gatling shotgun.

    I demand more information on the gatling shotgun and possibly an ingame model to replace the NS shotgun - just to show off my unknown Split Second knowledge to my friends. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->
