John Oliver slams Jimmy Stewart as a "bad actor"


https://www.thewrap.com/john-oliver-calls-jimmy-stewart-a-bad-actor-in-segment-on-filibuster-reform-video/

The Last Week Tonight host showed a clip last night of Stewart's Oscar-nominated performance in Mr. Smith Goes to Washington in a segment on filibuster reform. "He was a bad actor,” Oliver said before taking a swipe at Old Hollywood. “They were all pretty bad back then, but he was especially bad.”

Oliver's an idiot if he thinks Jimmy Stewart is a bad actor. Stewart was great.

Idiot. He probably has all of Keanu Reeves' movies on Blu Ray.

Or in other words John Oliver desperate for attention attacks one of classic Hollywood's greatest.

John Oliver is an idiot and poseur who doesn't know much about American culture, so has a team of stupid millennials writing most of his content for him. I'm not saying that to "generation bash." It's just that over the past year, there have been so many jaw-dropping mistakes, cringe-inducing memes and corny millennial slang that it's obvious to me that he has a bunch of kids writing his content. No American over the age of 40--maybe even 35--would ever dare to call Stewart a bad actor. Millennials, though, who think everyone from David Bowie to Stanley Kubrick was "overrated" and "sucked" would. And John Oliver, who's oblivious, isn't smart enough to know when his idiot staff are completely off base. He just sucks up their stupid jokes like a Dyson vacuum and then repeats them with that smug voice of his.

Unlike Yankee racism and homicides through the roof, of course?

reply

We’re only called racist when we point out that most homicides are committed by non-whites.

reply

John Oliver is a swine. A true jagoff.

reply

They were all pretty bad back then? What an opinion, you know who were all pretty good back then? Talk show hosts.

reply

Maybe John should cover more important topics like Muslim rape grooming gangs, the "Asian" menace in his home country and other issues like going to jail for possessing a butter knife.

Fucking dumbass bong shit for brains.

Who the fuck is "John Oliver"? Never heard of this know-nothing asswipe.
