Obviously there are a few more, but ones memory is not perfect. Actually it's a longer list than I expected.
Well I guess most of you folk will be saying, "Where's ...". Sorry but it was just not good enough.
And now for the expected rant about what sucks in cinema. Well
I will begin with my most hated man in movies - Quinten Tarin-fucking-tino.
This cunt is nothing but a fucking rip-off toss that has absolutely no
originality whatsoever. Just go watch "City on Fire" to see what
i mean. I will admit that I haven't seen Jackie Brown, and probably
wont, but none the less, Tarintino sucks. Pulp Fiction was a load
of crap, and even worse, it made no hoper actors like Travolta popular.
What a fucked world we live in.
I really hate all these Tarantino kiddies, I'm just glad that they've
all found South Park and maybe Tarintino will finally be recognized as
a fucked director, with virtually no film writing skills. Maybe if
we're all lucky he'll realize that he was just a fad, get depressed and
blow his fucking brains out.
But then we'd be stuck with a buck of pre-pubescent tossers wearing
RIP Quentin T-shirts. And all the RIP Kurt tossers could laugh at
them, not realizing how fucking stupid they are themselves. And then
wankers like me could get upset about it and be forced to type a heap of
crap here about how fucked people are.
Man, it really is a fucked up world isn't it.
