This site is for counting on-screen kills, right? So why are the corpses of people not alive during the film's events included in the count? It is my opinion these should not be included in the movie's overall count.

They have always been counted. A corpse is a dead body, and this is Movie Bodycounts, so they are counted and always have been.

Yes, but it makes no sense in the context of counting actual kills in a movie. Counting bodies in the sense of 'We just cut to a scene where the hero's best friend is lying still on the floor and has a bullet in his chest while the villain stands over him with a gun.' makes sense, but counting 'The heroes pass a rotting skeleton in the background.' does not.

A dead body is a dead body, are you really gonna argue this shit?

Also, if you don't like the counting guidelines, start your own fucking site.

Yes, you have made a very concise and intelligent argument right here in a couple of posts. Truly inspiring. (learn2debate)
I believe this forum is called 'corrections and disputes' for a reason. I have a dispute, I want to bring it up. These long-dead bodies being added to the movie's overall kill count does not make sense to me.

Jen told you the same thing i told you, just in more words. Oh and for the fucking record... Yes, you have made a very concise and intelligent argument right here in a couple of posts. Truly inspiring. (learn2debate)... I graduated from Rowan with a Bachelors in Political Science and a 3.8 GPA, i then took my LSAT's in which i scored a 168, 18 points above the median. I am now in my first year at Temple Law and i work for the NJ State Democrats as a political analyst. So watch your tongue there tough guy, i think i hear your mom calling you to get ready for school. |

Please see the site's FAQ page...That is fine, but I am merely presenting my two cents in hopes to improve the quality of the body counts.

Your response was an appeal to your status and an ad hominem attack both of which are fallacies. |
