Who's leading the conversation?
This visualization below allows you to see the impact that each user has on the current conversation. The top row contains the group of users who have had the most impact, the 2nd row the group of users who have had the 2nd most impact (et cetera). Users with similar impact are grouped together, and the average score of the group is shown to the left of the group. The author of the article is also shown on the left, in their corresponding group. Each user's score is based on the number of comments the user has made plus the number of votes their comments have received. The scores are calculated relative one another, so while their absolute value is not particularly important, their relative difference does indicate a larger difference in impact on the conversation.

It sort of resembles the famous Sergio Leone / Clint Eastwood stand-off, when Clint Eastwood decided to go his own way. Quite frankly I find that Chow Yun-Fat is only getting better, while John Woo's Hollywood adventure has left him jaded and stuck in a parody of his own directing style. I used to really like John Woo, but perhaps he needs a kick in the behind like this.

Well, you may wonder why Chow would back out from the roll as the Famous smart and handsome General. Another film star Tony Leung also backed out from the movie playing the mastermind General not long ago. Both of them are proven really good and recognized actors, and that's probably why they were selected for the movie. The script cannot be anything bad given the story is well known and turned into many movies and tv games.

But now, both of them dropped it, there has to be something wrong with the management team...
