# Well I'm just glad you said it
if I'd have said it, I would have anticipated lots of "The Office was fucking great!" flaming. But I have very diverse comedy tastes and yet I have never understood the humour of that show.

# I was waiting for the flaming
I have a very diverse comedy taste too, and I have never found any of his stuff funny and it is the same thing over and over again.

# I think the humour is somekind of Emperors New Clothes syndrome
it's cringeworthy comedy based upon "if you don't laugh you don't get it you fail fucka!" attitude and I simply don't get it.

# That's what I meant
I don't get the humour I get the reference.

# Whilst that would be very tempting
I would, by principle, have to allow the freedom of others to find this chortleworthy even if I don't.

/damn my principles!

# we could burn all the American versions of The Office
that would be a principled act of kindness to the world.

# why is it, with the story of the emporers new clothes
does it seem that the story just ends at the wrong place

I don't ever recall it ending with the child being executed, which surely would complete the story.

I'm very confused.

I don't understand things :/

# There's too much pussyfooting political corectness nowadays bud.
in the 1990's only ALEX COX had the balls to say that since "A Clockwork Orange".....EVERYTHING that Kubrick turned out was SHITE.

It was the only time that somebody ever told him straight. Just an older example of what yer trying to say, that's all.

# Ummm.....

Hitch Hiker's Guide..... BORING

2001......Over-rated, over-long utter fucking GARBAGE!!!.....At least we agree on 2.

# The orange was atually pretty DEEP for it's time......
....It was also AHEAD of it's time. Kubrick always figured up to his dying day that 2001 was his finest moment. I disagree. After he made ORANGE, he kept trying to make deep movies, but all he did was become an annoying
perfectionist who bugged the living hell out of those who worked for him.

# Yes after the great ban I was expecting something really shocking
the most shocking thing I found about it was just how boring it actually was.

Hitchhikers was great as the BBC series but the new film was Meh!

2001 was, and will always be, a classic - even if it's a little too long and low on real action.

# My film taste, like every thing, is very eclectic
I am having a classic classic film moment, watching films from the 1930s. Long films I can't really do, my attention goes after about an hour 30.

# Not a fan of Lord of the Rings then ;)
I have all three extended edition box sets for each of the films aproximately 12 hours of footage although I can hardly watch one now without falling asleep in the middle.
