Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon?

I choose to believe that Plato just used Socrates as a vessel to convey his own beliefs.

There's historical evidence that indicates otherwise, such as Aristophanes play The Clouds.

And the fact that there's such a careful aversion Plato has to some of Socrates philosophy.

I didn't mean to sound demeaning, btw. I realize I kinda rubbed off the way, saying that I was talking about Plato and not Socrates. I just failed to explain that I'm explicitly talking about Plato's philosophy. It's hard determining whether Plato accepted the Forms so well as Socrates. It seems to me that he ended up being somewhere in the middle of the road between Socrates and Aristotle in the end.

No worries. Philosophy has been heated since it was created :lol:

I wish these people would just settle on something already!

:lookaroun

Cinderella?

 

[popsicletrees]

What kind of movie are you wanting?

Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon?

Aw, yuck. I tried that a while back. Couldn't make it.

I've never read Aristophanes, but I'll take your word for it.

Cinderella?

It has to be something I haven't seen!

I tried watching it on my own once. I have a deep love and respect for old classics, but it is just boring!

Oh...see...I haven't seen many classics...probably in part to how boring Citizen Kane was!

And I just don't get why it was such a big deal?

 

[MerHearted]

Cinderella?

I had to choose between my statue of Ariel or my light up Cinderella Castle to take with me. I chose Ariel cause there was less risk of breaking her. I really wanted my castle though.

Sorry - I'm running out of C's.......

 

[Pongo]

What kind of movie are you wanting?

One that starts with C. And that I've never seen. And am interested in :lol:

Andddd GO.

 

[PotteryGal]

Cinderella?

1, 2, or 3? :lookaroun We have them all. I own so many movies, I could start my own rental company!

 

[Uponastar]

awful movie! Absolutely hated it!

Boring movie, beautifully filmed.

Stay away from the mushrooms!

Can I have a cookie?

Easy, pompous elitists like to glorify borings things common people don't care for to make themselves seem smart. It's like Emperor's new clothes... but with a movie!

I've never read Aristophanes, but I'll take your word for it.

:ROFLOL: Why can't we all just make up our minds?!

Aristophanes wrote a play about Socrates during his time that shows us the historical figure of Socrates and how the Greeks perceived him. It's right on point with how Plato perceived Socrates and the things he talked about.

 

[MerHearted]

You're gonna make me fat!

 

[popsicletrees]

Casablanca? or has that been mentioned?

 

[nibblesandbits]

One that starts with C. And that I've never seen. And am interested in :lol:

Andddd GO.

So...not Chocolot? :lookaroun

*steals Vince's castle and sells it on e-bay....*

 

[popsicletrees]

Cape Fear - get the original version if you get it

 

[nibblesandbits]

Boring movie, beautifully filmed.

But if it's so boring...then how can any one pay attention to the fact that it was done beautifully?

And stop tempting me with cookies...b/c I'm at home now and I've got the cookies in the fridge that I just break apart and bake. And I need to wait for WHF to come home before I start eating crap! :lol:
