please help me edit this its a movie review Viewers would be surprised and interested in the movie Dead Poet Society like I was. The movie was directed by Peter Weir and written by Tom Schulman in 1989. The movie was about an English Professor named John Keating (Robin Williams) telling his students at Welton Academy how to seize the day and make their lives meaningful. Overall, I believe the movie was good. The movie touched my heart and I almost cried at the end of the movie. The movie was tragic and suspenseful. I would rate it as two thumps up. I would recommend it to everyone because in a society that we live in today not everyone has hopes I really enjoyed watching the movie because of two characters in the film. I liked Neil Perry's character in the film. He was John Keating's student. He made me realize how much one has to try in order to follow their dream. My favorite character in the movie was John Keating. I liked the techniques he used to teach his class. It was very different and unexpected. For example, he made his students stand on top of a desk to show his student how to see things in different perspective. John Keating made me realize the importance of following ones dream and everyone is not the same. |

The movie?  I saw it..
Anyways - a good review is supposed to contrast highs and lows of the movie and let the reader make their own (now educated) decision about how much they might like the movie. You talk too much about how you felt the movie was, but don't explain why. Why was it tragic? Why was it suspenseful? Why did you almost cry? Explain all of those points, and then remove your personal opinions. |

And like, why would you ask a question like this on this forum? I'm sort of asking just to make sure that this topic is stupid, cause to me it seems stupid for someone to post a movie synopsis on a programming forum. So, can I see a vote of who thinks this topic is stupid? Is it stupid? Raise your hand if yes. |

I think its alright, this is a forum built to help people (more specifically students)... but yeah, it is a programming forum but... can't you ask non-programming questions also? We do math here don't we? not all of it is related to programming. I'm not sure if this should be in the [General Discussion] forum though... |

I'm not sure if this should be in the <a href="http://www.compsci.ca/v2/viewforum.php?f=1">[General Discussion]</a> forum though... I think you are right, so i am moving it to OT. |

Is it stupid? Raise your hand if yes. Normally, something like this would be perfectly normal, provided it came from someone who had been posting on the site a bit. Asking a boon of friends on this site is great. It's wierd when someone's first post is something so unrelated, though. |

I realy do not see much atacking in this topic, alot of peoleop realsized this should have been posted in off topic to start with. Some peoleop acuatly gave good replys like tony. It is a bit hard to give editing sudugestions with out know more like if this is a grade 6 progject, a personal one or a uni one. |

Yeah, we need to know what level of education this review is for. Im sorry to say, but the grammar is an atrocity (even for me whose grammar is mediocre, did that even make sense?). While one can easily interpret the message you are trying to get across it's conveyed in a confusing way. Also good reviews have a lot of adjectives and adverbs  |

If i moderated things at that level of "rudeness" this whould be more then a full time job and peoleop whould be upset at the level of censorship. It is not easy moderating a forum like this, do it to much and every one calls you a power crazy dictora upseted with censorship and not enought and the forums get flamed to death and every one thinks you are to laxed. What it comes down to some times like rizzix was saying is that some peoleop are just not nice and unforntly that is how the world works right now and although i wish i could chage that i am unable to at this time. |

What Dan is trying to say is that Rizzix and I are allowed to be rude. And I wasn't really intending to be rude - just being a grammar nazi. |

Hey, all of the Japanese girls that I know are even worse. They talk in these strange squiggly characters that I can barely ever understand. |
