The connection was that Walt Disney was a Nazi supporter- both ideologically and financially. The Nazis- who still exist, btw, "they didn't lose, they just had to move' - still work hand in glove with Disney. (google operation paperclip mind control and disney & see what pops up).

I can't remember ever not knowing that Darth Vader was Luke's father.
I can't remember ever not knowing that Michael becomes the Don.
I wounder if sixth sense will hold up?
Who can blame Brokeback Mountain's director Ang Lee for being a little disappointed at not getting the Best Picture Oscar. I would be too. But he accepted it philosophically.
[...]feeling disappointed "is human nature. And it wasn't for myself. I led a whole team of people."...

I also wish Ang Lee had been able to convince people that Brokeback wasn't meant to be a statement about homosexuality. If people hadn't been expecting two watch two hours of clear, moral message, maybe there wouldn't have been those complaints about how it's wrong for gay men to cheat on their spouses.
I just have a problem with that specific criticism since it makes it sound like the story would be better if the characters were comfortable enough about their preferences to just forego all pretenses of heterosexuality. Would there even be much of a plot left if that were the case?

Let me put it this way: Boondock Saints II: All Saints Day was supposed to debut in 2003. IMDB said so. It is now 2006.
So, yes, I doubt the IMDB.
Edit: I think this is the answer.
I never give a real proper update on my life here anymore. So here it is.

I'd like to share a revelation that I've had during my time here. It came to me when I tried to classify your species. I realized that you are not actually mammals. Every mammal on this planet instinctively develops a natural equilibrium with the surrounding environment. But you humans do not. You move to an...

And along those lines: Why would you ruin a perfectly good vulva by pouring beer on it? Yuck, beer. That's champagne. I'm stupid.
First of all, humans don't necessarily "move to an area and multiply... until every natural resource is consumed." There are many strains of humanity that live in "harmony with nature."
True, but they are the exception, not the rule.
Furthermore, we have hardly consumed every natural resource in any of the places we live. We may be creating a situation where we cannot continue to live, but that isn't the same. For example, cockroaches and rats and seagulls live off the very wastes we generate.
And those account for maybe 2% of the wild population. Most of the other animals suffer because of our waste and destruction. Not quite as badly as Smith would suggest, but still suffer.
...the implication that viruses are somehow bad or evil is a pretty human thought coming from a computer program.
A computer program designed to look like a human, move like a human (albeit much faster), think like a human, talk like a human, etc. It's to be expected. And he didn't say we are "evil"; he said that we are bad for the planet.
Why should a machien care about the flu?
If I remember correctly, there was a huge war between humans and machines. Smith doesn't care about the flu; he cares about a race of inferior (as he sees them) beings who would like to exterminate his kind. Not to mention the fact that his very reason for existence is to kill humans, which gives him a tendency to come up with reasons to hate us.
Also, equating viruses and cancer is obviously absurd. While some sorts of cancer can have a viral source, the vast majority do not. Furthermore, there is an obvious metaphorical difference between a virus and cancer: a virus is an external force, while cancer is death from within, the body being unable to regulate itself.
They share the quality which Smith observed: that of spreading uncontrolled, consuming resources and laying waste to their environment. It's more of an analogy than a direct comparison, anyway.
Besides, Smith was kinda going insane. He's entitled to not-quite-accurate rantings about how much he hates humans.
If you want to talk about dumb speeches from Matrix characters, though, let's talk about the Merovingian. God damn, I wanted so badly for him to get blown up or something.

The only guaranteed exception is this journal entry, because I have a very sexually stimulating girlfriend.
