Cultural Amnesty Thread.

[PestiRed]

Amnesty fail, oh and the guy who said 'Romeo and Juliet', get out.

 

You're telling me that you consider Bill Murray a bigger cultural sacred cow than Shakespeare?

 

Philistine

[silverlining]

The Davinci Code.

 

One dimensional characters and direlogue.

 

Thread fucked already.

 

Nobody thinks The Da Vinci Code is anything other than a plagiarised, poorly-written load of fucking shit.

[brucespanner]

Tom Waits.

 

Sounds like the cookie monster, and that's when he isn't slurring.

 

[Section_31]

Nick Cave. Long-faced fuck. That song with Minogue is shite.

[Total Longo]

Leonard Cohen - miserable cunt

The Shield - Ludicrous, bulgy eyed, bald dwarf and "chums" acting tough, utterly unbelievable.

American F**tball - Fighty chess. Shite.

Bruce Springsteen - shagging a bird in your "Chevy" and then fucking off for a drive down highway 59, in a loud shouty voice, ad infinitum.

John Bishop - just FUCK OFF!

Apart from the angry Jew I'm with you sister.

 

Bruce Springsteen has only released one good song, and that was a cover.

[Total Longo]

Forgot to add - Stephen Fry - sick of his stupid, smug, upper class, wonky kipper turning up on every fucking programme just to have everyone fawn over him. "oh, but he's a genius!" - no, he's just well educated. I'm not altogether sure what it is he actually does.

I don't mind Stephen Fry, but he has made a career out of being a stupid person's idea of what a clever person is.

Superbly put.

On The Road is unspeakably dull yet somehow its revered as a classic of 20th century fiction.

 

On a related note, Catcher in the Rye is absolutely dreadful and Caulfield isn't the iconic literary figure people like to posture about - he is a twat.

 

John F Kennedy. Initiated the monstrous Vietnam war (committing many atrocities like the use of napalm) almost brought the world to an end twice, brutalised Cuba and did absolutely nothing for the civil rights movement which had helped him into office. Gets assassinated and all we hear is how he's a great hero and leader. Irritates the hell out of me.

[AngryOfTuebrook]

Warty Arsehol.

[brucespanner]

Warty Arsehol.

 

Lemmy?

[Carvalho Diablo]

Most beatles songs, although there are a few i like

 

Most early Clint Eastwood films

 

'Arty' foreign films

 

...gets coat

 

You what ?

 

You fucking what ??!!

harsh to call him a twat, I'm sure when not suffering from severe mental illness Holden was an ok kid.

 

Agree though that the book is not all its cracked up to be.

[kelster]

Oasis - shitty pop band.

 

Captain Beefheart - has anyone ever listened to Trout Mask Replica? It just sounds shit. Like your pissed uncle.

 

Lost in Translation - already covered earlier.

[Pony Princess]

I think I just realized the purpose of amnesty threads. They encourage self-improvement.

 

If I can get through this thread without negging someone and screaming at my computer, I will come out of the other side a stronger person. My body is ready.

 

Good luck everyone who see's it the same.

[Carvalho Diablo]

Star Wars. Even when I was a kid I fuckin hated it. Ewoks ? Fuck off you furry fucks.

 

Star Trek. Shatner is a fat puff. Utter shite, every film, every episode.

 

Harry fuckin Potter and his fuckin goblet of piss. Grown fuckin men tell me how great these books and films are. Fuck off, I'm 41 and I'm a cunt. Now get a girlfriend you cardie wearing ponce.

 

Taken. Or any other Yank shite film starring a 20 something hewwer pretending to be a teenager. By the numbers. Just kill and fuck her, in any order you like. Fine by me, just get a shift on.

 

Television generally. Especially childrens TV presenters. "Give it up for...". Hang on, give what up ? Injecting crack ? Suck my cock and fuck off spotty...

[mattyq]

Star Wars - liked it when i was 7...i now think it's shite

Arrested Development - unfunny wank

Seinfield - unfunny wank

Woody Allen - unfunny wank

THose American series that everyone raves about like The Shield, Breaking Bad etc - shite with the exception of the Wire and even in that the first 2 series were bollocks

The Las - 1 good song now an advert jingle

Rap music - just do not get it at all

[Kevin D]

I'm going to be careful how I phrase this, but I think the Nazis are given a disproportionate amount of coverage in media. I understand they committed horrific acts and I don't want to downplay that or the victims but I'm just not that interested anymore, to be frank.

[Remmie]

GF in getting thread fail shocker. Absolute mongtards.

 

2 pints? Do you know anyone that would be surprised you don't like that show?

Attention fuckwits, here is an example of someone who gets the thread. Controversy central:

 

Star Wars - liked it when i was 7...i now think it's shite

Arrested Development - unfunny wank

Seinfield - unfunny wank

Woody Allen - unfunny wank

THose American series that everyone raves about like The Shield, Breaking Bad etc - shite with the exception of the Wire and even in that the first 2 series were bollocks

I completely disagree over the American TV/comedy though, especially Seinfeld which is one of the greatest ever.

[Carvalho Diablo]

M Night Shyamalan.

 

What a fucking shyster this talentless cunt is.

 

To blame for some of the most horrific, agonisingly shite, terrible, unwatchable, cringe-worthy, vomit inducing, utterly appalling films ever to disgrace the cinema screen : The Village (my most hated film ever), The Happening (trust me - fuck all happens), Devil etc etc

 

Proof enough that The 6th Sense must have been a fluke...and that is way overrated.

 

Quentin Tarantino.

 

Whoa, hear me out a sec...Tarantino's films (whilst very watchable first time round), do not imo stand up to repeated viewing.

 

Reason ? Because his films are renown for, and are blessed with, some cracking dialogue. And that's the problem...once you've heard it, you've fuckin heard it.

 

The scene round the breakfast table in the diner in Reservoir Dogs, The scene in the cabin at the start of Inglourious Basterds, Jools and Vincent rattling on about cheese burgers in Pulp Fiction etc etc ad infinitum.

 

Once you've heard it, you've heard it...and that moment of suspense, where you're on the edge of your seat, hanging on the next word ...gone.

[Newport]

Try topping this.

 

I love Glee

All good points but the american tv series are split in half,some are great and some are also shite,thats a bit too general.

Be more specific cos thats more controversial.

[Uncle_Meat]

*deep breath*

 

So. Much. Fucking. Wrong.

 

*LoveAndToleranceLoveAndTolerance*

 

I'm not one for negging sprees but fuck me, some of the above would have me close if I wasn't an altogether cool and groovy kind of dude.

 

Anyway. Dogs. Dogs are a bit shit really. Smelly, overdependent, drooling, dribbling shit machines. You do get the odd cool dog, to be fair, but what's the point when you have the far better feline option? Dogs. They're just shit cats.
