Ackey Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 Had a bit of a Brass Eye revival over the last couple of days due to the lack of a TV and it being on 4OD... which reminded me of this: Empire Article About The Film Can't wait!

beag_teeets Posted March 11, 2010 Share Posted March 11, 2010 Have you seen the trailor? It looks fantastic, "Because she's got a beard...." Seen a few previews and either the journalists were trying to appear to be too clever or it went over their heads but they weren't the most complimentary. Having said that Morris could just read his shopping list out and I'd think it was a work of genius. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beag_teeets Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 Can not wait for May 7th! This is going to be excellent. Can't wait too for the Daily Mail and hard of thinking outrage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rudemedic Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 Can not wait for May 7th! This is going to be excellent. Can't wait too for the Daily Mail and hard of thinking outrage. I think I'd be more worried about the islamist fundamentals who declare a fatwa on the makers for what amounts to having a sick sense of humour It does look brill though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted March 18, 2010 Share Posted March 18, 2010 Can not wait for May 7th! This is going to be excellent. Can't wait too for the Daily Mail and hard of thinking outrage. Hahahahaa..yeah.... In terms of poking fun at a genre that has long been regarded as unpokable, this film is exactly what we've been waiting for! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beag_teeets Posted March 18, 2010 Share Posted March 18, 2010 I think I'd be more worried about the islamist fundamentals who declare a fatwa on the makers for what amounts to having a sick sense of humour It does look brill though I don't think they will make any complaints "That's not what proper terrorists are like! I spent 7 months at a training camp on the Pakistani border and it wasn't like that at all!" Or "You can't fit that much semtex in to a Teenage Mutant Turtle outfit!" Both of these would surely just result in "You're nicked sunshine!" Morris has spent a long time with the Islamic community in preparation for the film, I think he might have closed off a few of the issues.

Ackey Posted May 4, 2010 Author Share Posted May 4, 2010 Out on Friday. Already kicking up a stink in the press, but thankfully it's being subdued by the coverage of the Election which hopefully means that it will be given chance to stand and be judged on merit and not just sensationalist red-top gibberish. Can't wait! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beag_teeets Posted May 5, 2010 Share Posted May 5, 2010 Thought they would, grr, that'll mean I have to take the wife out for a meal or drinks too rather than just nipping to pilsworth vue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beag_teeets Posted May 8, 2010 Share Posted May 8, 2010 It is better than I thought it could be! Very funny and pretty layered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rosa Posted May 9, 2010 Share Posted May 9, 2010 It is better than I thought it could be! Very funny and pretty layered.Yeah i thought that. A lot funnier than i thought it would be, given the subject,but it didn't shy away from the tragic side of it, which was pretty brave. Chris Morris is still king of the one-liners - "f*ck mini Babybels!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chuckling about it now you've reminded me. Also just remembered - Barry's tests! :grin: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
