Isn't that Scary Movie 3?

Huh, I hadn't noticed what the premise of the film was before. It seems kinda ripped from The Day Today's 9/11 piece: https://www.youtube.com/wat…

Stewart Lee is brilliant at this: he takes it much further to the point of actively berating his audience for laughing (which ends up getting more laughs from the audience who are used to his act). Although for Lee it isn't actual anger but just part of his weird, experimental style.

It would be a left-wing black woman who only sang songs originally performed by white guys, surely?

No, man, that was Alan Moore and he's in Northampton, not Galilee.

Yup - I cannot believe that people are so miffed about the clever inversion in Iron Man 3 when really it was the only way to play the character nowadays that doesn't come across as hugely xenophobic/Orientalist etc.

"The first click you hear is gonna be me hanging up the phone. The second click will be me pulling the trigger."

Maybe it's a cry for help

They're a bit like Darth Vader - once human, but slowly became more machine than man…

This sounds like something Patrick Bateman would come out with…

But £ is a pound sign!

But this is about opportunity, education, money etc. not intelligence - you've said as much yourself. That's one of the reasons the film is so frustrating - it ignores any of the context of poverty and the self-perpetuating cycle of lack of opportunity. It's just goes on an 'ew dumb people' rant, as if this happens in

Taking photographs of your willy, of course.

That's a big issue with it - for a film about how dumb people are creating a terrible future, the film isn't actually particularly smart.

Neither of my parents completed their secondary education, and I have just graduated with a Masters degree so I really take exception to that obnoxious, elitist bollocks.

Swans are fucking arseholes.

And American Psycho

I think it was already losing a bit of steam in season 3

I have no idea what you are trying to say.
