Here's some questions

Post by JuanHamm »

Blue Monday or Love will tear us apart?

Who's a worse person - Logan Roy or Tony Soprano?

Is Jurassic Park a great film?

See amended answer

"Blue Monday" is mostly just a tech demo but New Order has a lot of much better songs and Joy Division is overall kind of tiresome

I only know a handful of New order/Joy Division songs, but I enjoy them all a lot. What are some of your favorite New order songs?

Blue Monday

Logan Roy (maybe he's not a murderer, but he has a more far reaching negative effect)

Yes

Also, Tony is nicer to his family and at least loves animals.

He's a pretty standard cutthroat billionaire guy. Tony Soprano is a cold-blooded murderer. The overall reach of their evil is irrelevant to the question asked

They inhabit very different worlds. Logan doesn't really have the need (or opportunity) to kill anyone. As the owner of their universe's Fox news I'd say he's got a lot more blood on his hands than Tony.

Logan Roy. He is absolutely terrible to his family. Tony at least tried to be good to his family.

Yes Jurassic Park is great.

If we’re talking about the version of love will tear us apart from the 90s compilation, I’d pick that one. If it’s between the album versions, Blue Monday.

You could make the case that Logan thinks he's the hero of the story (and millions of people in his world would agree with that). He doesn't do everything cynically, he has sincere political beliefs that he pursues. Alongside his pursuit of power and wealth. He calculates that all of that is more important than his family.

Tony makes a lot of the same choices, but for a lot less money and for goals he knows not to be noble. He also just often aims guns at people and shoots them. That's just not nice at all
