Christ.
Why are almost all british-made films awful?
(Mind, 'submarine' looks semi-alright).

Yeah that King's Speech...
What a turkey. That'll vanish into obscurity without a ripple I'm sure.
To be fair the UK film industry is pretty decent. Although what'll happen now that they've scrapped the Film Council so there's no budget for new talent to be developed is anyone's guess.

Hence me including the qualifier "almost". Dur.
I'm sorry, when it comes to british films, you do seem to have to pick through an awful lot of shit for that one kernel of sweetcorn.

I assume it's the same in any country.
The good stuff will get exported, and we don't get to see the real crap.
I've still got hopes for Attack The Block. It's a nice idea, just with a shit generic trailer. It's impossible to tell anything at all from that trailer.

Maybe, maybe. *tries to be optimistic*
It is a good idea, & trailers often don't do the actual film justice.
Plus, it's bloody Joe Cornish!
*swoons*

As far as I've gathered, Britain only likes to make two kinds of film
Ones about crime heists and others about how shit the UK is. Usually the film does both.
Unless it is made for the yanks, then it will just consist of posh people stuttering for two hours.
