    To be fair to Rob Zombie though Claire, he has actually done something a bit different with it, the guy really knows the genre and knows how to put a different spin on things....

     

    Why don't people put a different spin on a different film?

    Wow can't really be bothered to read all this! If my boss sees me I'll be in trouble, cos I think he'd wonder why I've been here for days reading it all.

     

    Always said from the off that the parents was behind it, who goes out and leaves their kids alone? If it was a chav of a person like you or me we'd have had stick straight from the off. They didn't would we would.

     

    Totally fed up with story now, I know she's dead so can we stop now having it in the paper every fukking day! Tell us when you find something yeah?

    I'm about six episodes into series 4, and well.... I'm just not finding it quite as compelling as series 2 and 3 tbh.... The whole "Carver" and "Nazi Matt" plotlines were masterstrokes, and the whole edge that these plotlines brought to the series is somewhat lacking now that those plotlines have run their course.. The whole "Matt gets into Scientology" thing doesn't really convince tbh and I think they should've done a LOT more with the Monica Wilder character, it seemed a pretty cheap shock tactic just to have her run over by a bus.. I dunno, maybe it'll pick up later, I'm finding the whole "Is Christian Gay..?" thing to be quite amusing though.... :lol:

     

    I thought you was further on than that Scott?

     

    I was watching it but I can't get it anymore cos we're on Virgin so that means no Sky. I'll buy them all later on cos I can't afford it right now.

    I certainly believe that it's a Social Class thing, that surely cannot be questioned... And I'm not fully convinced that race doesn't play a part in it either.... Like I say, the vast majority of the kids that I've seen Police posters for around the areas that I lived in were Asian or Black (and mostly Estate kids as well...), and not a single one of them so much as made the inside of a large circulation newspaper or a spot on the BBC London News progs, let alone the sort of blanket coverage Maddie's getting.... Sure, we can look to the cases of Damilola Taylor and Victoria Climbie, but those are different - those were actual MURDER cases (the press always love a good murder let's face it....), this is Missing Persons.... Totally different circumstances.....

     

     

    Children go missing everyday, hundreds in London they can't keep tabs on them all. So you're telling me that all white kids that go missing end up the paper everyday where you are? You're going off Holly and Jessica, and now Madeleine, who are all white...As Rob said if Madeleine was black she'd be all over the news.........

     

     

    That's gonna make future gigs rather uncomfortable experiences... Nightwish fans will demand the 'old favourites', and this poor girl simply will not be up to the task.... I'd heard they were going to get Tristania singer Vibeke Steine to join the band at one stage.. Pity that didn't actually happen, vocally, she's a far better fit....

     

    I know but she won't be able to pull them off.

     

    I don't think they thought this all the way through to be honest, she did need replacing but they didn't take everything into consideration.

    Lyrically it sounds alright, it's always been Tuomas in charge of the song-writing anyway, Tarja never really did have much creative input tbh.... I just dunno why the hell they've gone for a singer who's NOT Classically trained.... How the fukk's she gonna sound doing stuff that Tarja sang....? Unless they just totally alter the song structures and change the keys (because this girl sings in a TOTALLY different key and tone to Tarja and the songs were all written with her voice in mind, and cos Nightwish are such a musically technical band, it really is gonna be quite a startling difference when Anette sings the Tarja songs...)

     

     

    He was starting to lose his better lyrics, Once wasn't as deep/meaningful as OB or CC plus the music was better with those albums anyway, as we agree on!

     

    If she tried she wouldn't pull it off, their better off leaving what they done with Tarja in the past TBH, make a fresh with the new girl..

    Spot on Clare....

     

    Basically the thrust of the argument is -

     

    - These two so-called "parents" were going off and leaving the kids on a more or less regular basis, it certainly was NOT the first time they went to dinner and left the kids alone in the room... Christ, ANYONE watching them would know exactly what their pattern was and how much time they would have to grab Maddie...

    - There was an on-site babysitting service that they almost certainly could have used.. Okay, might cost a bit extra, but for two upper middle class doctors who can afford to travel with their three kids to a posh resort it really shouldn't present much of an extra financial burden... Besides, money should be no object when it comes to protecting your kids

    - The hypocrisy of the press is astounding, if this had been some working class single mum on a housing estate leaving her kids to nip across the road to the local pub, there would be absolutely no gushy, outpourings of sympathy or suppor, in fact, police or social services would be in there like a shot to take the other kids away into protection; middle-class doctors on the other hand cannot be criticised for their parenting skills it seems.... <_<

    - The fact that they're jetting around all over Europe (and I really dont give a sh!t what the fukkin' reasons are....), having tea and biscuits with the sodding Pope AND TOTALLY IGNORING THEIR OTHER TWO KIDS, seems to be utterly disgusting behaviour IMO.... What kind of parent does this.....?

    - The Press hysteria surrounding this is something else that disgusts most of us as well.... Why are we focussing so much attention on a girl going missing in Portugal when over a thousand kids between the ages of 6 and 14 have gone missing off the streets of Britain in the past year...? The only time I ever see or hear anything about those other kids is when I see posters on bus shelters, tubes, etc appealing for information - NOT plastered all over the press, NOT on TV news progs, NOT on sodding "Crimewatch"...... Cant have anything to do with the fact that most of these other kids are Asian, black and from poor, disadvantaged backgrounds, could it....Naaaaaaaaaah..... <_< <_<

     

    What really p!ssed me off about these parents as well was the happy photo they had taken looking all happy and looking like they counldn't give a sh!t she's gone, that was a front page photo, how wrong does that look!?

     

    It's only high profile cos of the parents having money, it has nothing to do with colour, age yes.

     

    Well, well, well!

     

    I'll read that when I have more time, but I'll give you two guess's who she looks like.........who am I kidding you'd get that in one!

     

    Music; not heard it but (and yes it's a big one), in order for this to be better she has to have a better voice and I'm betting she don't? Okay then lyrics, are they any better? I'm not betting my life on that either........ I'll give it a listen later if I like I'll say so, but I'm going to be honest in my final report!

    I'm really sorry but I can't be arsed to read all of this thread, I just have to say that I really hope you all arn't feeling sorry for the parents! For two well off people that was a fukking stupid thing to do, if they was chav's you'd all be calling them all sorts of names for acting irresponsible, but 'cos one of them is a surgeon and the other a doctor we feel sorry for them? No, no, no! No parent in their right mind would leave their children alone in a foreign place or even at home! They are to blame for her going missing, not the person that took her, 'cos if they didn't leave her she wouldn't have gone missing! It's all fine and good saying 'well she was only 50 yards away in our site the whole time', well clearly she wasn't was she if she's gone missing!

     

    Don't want to say it but.........she ain't alive, if they was being parents she'd still be here now!

     

    Lets face it if the police over there would have been any good they would have found her by now....even they said they didn't have the first idea where to start.
