It's common<br>fact that obviously washing is better than wiping. But over here, we<br>are privileged enough to have and use toilet paper for convenience (I<br>use baby wipes to finish). <br> <br>But in a country of over a billion with millions living in the dire<br>conditions, I'm sorry you find it offensive they cannot afford<br>triple-ply Charmin.<br> <br>We don't need ignorant or racist posts like yours on Engadget.

You bash their 'culture' for using those out houses as toilets... you clearly have no idea why they were using them in the first place. But let me try and explain it to you. They lived in slums, know what a slum is? If not look it up. Because it was a slum there was no real plumbing or any money to afford toilets. And heres the important part coming up. It isn't Indian cluture to use out houses with holes leading into a river as toilets, they do actually have toilets in India. Get your head out of your arse you ignorant cunt. I'm guessing you're one of those arrogant Americans who think that everyone who isn't white is a terrorist and that you're so superior. And just before you say anything I'm not indian, I'm from europe. Dunno what europe is either? I wouldn't have thought so.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[jack]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mar 4th 2009 8:16PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Slumdog Millionaire goes from Academy Awards stage to Blu-ray disc March 31]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/04/slumdog-millionaire-goes-from-academy-awards-stage-to-blu-ray-di/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/04/slumdog-millionaire-goes-from-academy-awards-stage-to-blu-ray-di/</guid><description><![CDATA[+1 jack<br><br>Forgive Video Master.

Just because I have an opinion about something that makes me a racist? If I hate the fact that Muslims hate Americans does that make me a bigot? In your eyes it does.  Both of you are using reverse racism thinking that every white person is racist because they don't agree with the way you do things.   I could care less about skin color and I bang girls with different nationalities all the time.  I guess that if I don't understand why these idiots no matter how poor they are - throw trash all over the ground?  I guess thats a racist concept according to you schmucks. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Video Master 2]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mar 5th 2009 7:53PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Slumdog Millionaire goes from Academy Awards stage to Blu-ray disc March 31]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/04/slumdog-millionaire-goes-from-academy-awards-stage-to-blu-ray-di/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/04/slumdog-millionaire-goes-from-academy-awards-stage-to-blu-ray-di/</guid><description><![CDATA[Can anyone explain to me and i'm sure countless others why this movie and every other movie has to be launched in Blu/HD?

Look at some of the amazing stills from The Kite Runner (on dvdbeaver) or A Passage to India to see how Slumdog could excel in HD. The most impressive HD shots to me so far are not explodey crap but the sheer depth and detail revealed in more sedate scenes.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Mark]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mar 5th 2009 4:50AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Slumdog Millionaire goes from Academy Awards stage to Blu-ray disc March 31]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/04/slumdog-millionaire-goes-from-academy-awards-stage-to-blu-ray-di/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/04/slumdog-millionaire-goes-from-academy-awards-stage-to-blu-ray-di/</guid><description><![CDATA[Action scenes almost never justify HD. You want to see HD at its best, you need movies that contain many scenes that are slow paced and atmospheric.<br><br>2001 is great in HD.<br>Blade Runner is great in HD.<br>Planet Earth is great in HD.<br><br>The Bourne trilogy? Live Free or Die Hard? Not so much. They have a few scenes where the HD really shows if you see them in HD, but they're a few seconds long and you wouldn't miss them if they weren't there.<br><br>I really don't understand where the notion that action movies are somehow the only good movies to see in HD, they're almost always on the end of the list of movies you should be watching in HD. Fast paced movement = no time to see and concentrate on details.<br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[squiggleslash]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mar 5th 2009 10:30AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Slumdog Millionaire goes from Academy Awards stage to Blu-ray disc March 31]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/04/slumdog-millionaire-goes-from-academy-awards-stage-to-blu-ray-di/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/04/slumdog-millionaire-goes-from-academy-awards-stage-to-blu-ray-di/</guid><description><![CDATA[It actually does have some action sequences.
