have you seen it before? If not, be prepared for one of the most disturbing films ever. Pretty much sets your mood for a couple days. Depressing!

I'm not sure, it's hard to explain. It's a complex movie, i watched it twice before i understood it properly. Appeals to people who like weird movies, drugs or abstract thought.

My SP friends loved it, Intuitives seem to love it too.

Scenes like where Duke and Gonzo are stumbling around a Casino, rambling and paranoid, are just pure entertaining.

It's quirky. Watch it with an open mind, then watch it again.

Shorty, if you liked Fear and Loathing, you'll probably not be as bothered by Requiem as a typical noob to drug films. Requiem is a movie I've thought about having my kids watch when they're older to show them what can happen with severe drug addiction.

Still a fantastic movie though. Refrigerator--chomp CHOMP! Surprised

From the art of speedreading people

ENTJ

ENTJs are natural leaders, whose competence and strength inspires confidence and respect in others. Their Lead Thinking enables them to analyze problems logically and objectively, weighing the pros and cons of an issue, and then make efficient, sensible, and often tough decisions. ENTJs value honesty and directness; they get right to the point, and don't beat around the bush.

However, because their Least function is Feeling, ENTJs can be unaware of the impact their actions have on others. In fact, many ENTJs are rather removed from the world of emotions, so they may behave in ways that are insensitive to the needs or feelings of other people. While this is not intentional, they can be brusque, critical, and appear arrogant when they become impatient with people who may not grasp an issue as quickly as they do, or who take an opposing position. ENTJs also have the propensity to be overbearing and bossy, and may intimidate others into supporting their positions. And because they are often in a hurry to get things done and move ahead, they may fail to acknowledge or express their appreciation when others have helped them or done a good job.

Talented strategic planners, ENTJs are capable of both seeing the big picture and anticipating how current actions may affect future decisions. Creative and often innovative, ENTJs have great courage when it comes to making bold, sweeping changes, especially with respect to complex problems or issues. Not easily intimidated, they engender confidence in others and often have a commanding and even awe-inspiring presence. Great lovers of learning, ENTJs are always looking for ways to improve themselves and increase their expertise and power.

Typically friendly, outgoing and energetic, ENTJs like to be where the action is, and are good at juggling several projects at the same time. They are often very articulate, think quickly on their feet, and can make very effective public speakers. ENTJs are usually not the least bit shy about sharing their ideas or expressing their strong opinions - which may pertain to any number of subjects. But because they are so eager to get one project completed and move on to the next, ENTJs may not spend enough time reflecting and thoughtfully considering the immediate and practical consequences of their actions. And they may be surprised to learn that their good ideas are not as enthusiastically accepted as they expected them to be.

ENTJs are often very career driven. Organized and productive, they like to work hard and eagerly take on difficult challenges - often the more complex the better. And as a result of their competence and resourcefulness, they are usually able to accomplish or even exceed their goals. But sometimes, once they have embarked upon a course of action, they may be unwilling or unable to modify their plans and pursue a new direction, even if such action is warranted. ENTJs sometimes have difficulty striking a healthy balance between their work and home life, becoming so preoccupied with furthering their careers that they sacrifice their family and personal life in the process. Not surprisingly, reevaluating their priorities in midlife is an activity many ENTJs find worthwhile.

haha, that's good to know. Not a noob to drug movies (Trainspotting, Spun, Human Traffic, Blow, A Scanner Darkly, One Perfect Day).

Unfortunately the DVD my mate has given me is from a different country and doesn't work on any of my DVD players Mad So i'll have to hire it out one day.

On this measurement, http://www.eclecticenergies.com/enneagram/test.php I am a 5-1 or a 1-5 (same points on both 1 and 5) whether the test likes it or not, those measures, 1 and 5 come up the highest. If the variant is at all meaningful, I guess I would be a 1-5, or 5-9, but since it does not find these types, I think the test has problems. What I noticed is the test wishes to support a theory about a spherical personality description. In effect, it places its theory ahead of the results and therefore, is not flexible enough to type someone that is at opposite ends of the sphere. I believe the topology is fantasy and results are dubious at best.

I think the MBTI is a better instrument for depicting personality. It should also be mentioned that the enneagram supposes that each type contains pathology, more than is found in many persons. Its implicit connotation is that everyone makes use of a rigid set of need to be happy. I find the test trite.

INTJ would be type 5, but one might be adjusted to being more a 1?

Be sure to check on the net for a code to crack the region encoding. They're not available for every player, but there are a lot.

What are you talking about? There are crack codes for DVD players you know. like, "press z on the remote and hold down for 4 seconds followed by left arrow, then an additional menu item will appear, select that..." It's fun. Smile

Sadly enough when I read that he found out he wasn't a INTJ I thought the same thing.


I don't know why when I searched for the type INTJ on the internet I found them being described as an ASSHOLE ,I mean I hear negative descriptions of ENTJ's being described as arrogant , the thing is I seem to be able to get on well with an _NTJ for some reason Question

I mean , I find nothing wrong with them.

It may be different for some other types , but then again , an ENFP is liked by a lot of people , just not by some.
