"I'm gonna have to crack one off to a shark movie on discovery channel because I'm afraid if I watch a porno it'll show up on the register of members interests" got a big laugh tonight.....I wonder why?


BTW very very funny movie.

reply

Why? It's a reference to this insane surveillance society forcing people to reconsider what they do in the former privacy of their own home or hotel room. Even funnier when the shark doc turned steamy enough that Simon was actually getting off on it.

reply

Perhaps, but the timing worked well - shortly before release, the British Home Secretary was in the headlines after it emerged her husband had rented a porn film that they'd claimed for on expences.

reply

Yes, I'd heard about that from across the pond. This is the era where we are supposed to be losing any remaining faith in our national governments precedent to handing any remaining sovereignty over to the U.N. and regional governments (Eurasia (EU) and Oceania (NAU), as Orwell "predicted", except he placed you with us in Oceania) - you in response to all these trivial peccadillos; and we in response to the theft of a mere 24 trillion Dollars at latest count, among other things. Something a bit out of balance with the script there, meethinks.

Gandolfini going "*beep* off frodo" and the scene where the guy tries make out that "on a subconscious level maybe in some way I was trying to stop the war" by shagging the american lassie were both great. going to have to see it again.


There were at least 10 laugh out loud masterpieces of swearing by capaldi with him ending a phone call where he had been threatening some editor with exposing his affair unless he pulls a story with the phrase *beep* bye" being only one of many.

Just realised that IMDB is **beeping** out swear words which is ironic when discussing this movie....
as the first capaldi quote should have read

f -star- star - c - c**nt!

"How's it hanging chad?" I only got this after my friend pointed it out. Genius.

"I'd like to punch you into paralysis!" Malcolm Tucker on hearing Simon Foster's threat to resign becoming public. Class.

What a film. Best comedy I've seen in at least 10 years.

This is a movie that we'll all have to see several times; the ripostes are so thick and fast that they just get missed first time.

I particularly found the sign-off when Peter Capaldi speaking to (his partner, wife, whatever?) ended with a 'fond' "well then... f-ki-dy-byes, see ya soon" very cute.

And the play on "NOT inevitable? So you're saying war is 'evitable?'

This movie could be set for the cult movie genre...with devotees anticipating and shouting out the dialogue and one-liners.

so many...
"...Judy's lubed horse cock aside..."
Jamie talking about classical music - "It's all *beep* vowels!"
"That was Malcolm. He's coming in"
"When?"
"Now. And don't say you're not prepared because I called ahead"
"I feel we may have exhausted that...teat"

I feel a bit light-headed. Maybe you should drive.

"When I tell you to f^ck off, whaddaya do?"
"Um... eff off?"
"You'll go far. Now f^ck off."

"Once you've been to war you never want to go back. It's like France."

"This is a *beep* Government Department, not a *beep* Jane *beep* Austen Novel. Allow me to pop a jaunty little bonnet on your purview and ram in up your *beep* with a lubricated horse cock," Malcolm Tucker.

That had me in stitches.

The whole scene where Malcolm and the General have a verbal abuse contest and Malcolm has met his match.
It becomes clear that Malcolm can only verbally threaten violence against those he has power over. It would be the end of his career if he ever did lay a finger on anyone.
The General, however, probably has torn someones head off, and could still arrange something nasty.

Although this is the first time he has been scared by someone else, Malcolm keeps his composure and gets the last word "don't ever call me English".
As if it is the worst thing the General said.
It leaves the General completly baffled.

reply

It leaves the General completly baffled.

because he doesnt understand the implications of referring to a scot as english
