Best crying baby scene is in City Of The Lost Children. It looks like they genuinely terrified a whole room full of the things.
Crap comedy observations you hate Page 7
I hate really , really miserable standups, who are also angry about absolutely nothing.
You know, "It's so crap going home for Christmas because.... or "Work's really awful becuase you have to do stuff,"
They make me really angy and miserable.
I like seeing Stan Laurel putting his thumb in his mouth whilst raising his bowler hat at the same time, so there!
I like watching Oliver Hardy fiddle with his bow tie then readjust his bowler hat.
Beat that!

I like watching Groucho Marx doing the same thing with a smile and insulting his victim without them realizing it until later.
I like masturba- I mean, um, nevermind.
I wander what a porn film with Gracie Fields and Norman Wisdom have been like?

Disturbing.
Quote: Aaron @ December 17 2008, 7:10 PM GMTMy cousin was in some BBC drama when he was a few months old. Crying was involved.
As part of the performance or because he had a shit agent?
I'm assuming th- Oh, no, you are a 'comedy' writer. Odd.
I'd like to know how the kids in the NSPCC adverts are told before they start their whinging.
Child: What's my motivation for this scene?
Director: Your dad's just shoved his hand up ya jacksie.
Child: Left or right?
Method acting. It's the best.
Quote: Matthew Stott @ December 16 2008, 8:22 PM GMTIt means to dance. According to Will Smith anyway. Get hip Granddad!
Actually, the original meaning of the term had nothing to do with dancing, or sex. It's just one of the many, many hip hop-related slang terms that's had it's meaning changed, usualy by the media. If anyone's interested in the original meaning, you'll probably find it at urbandictionary.com Oh, and while I'm on the subject, a hoodie is a hooded top, not a person who wears one.
Quote: Lee Henman @ December 16 2008, 9:51 PM GMTI HATE it in sitcoms when the phone rings and the character picks it up and instead of going "Hello?" like all normal people, they go "Hello, Stephen Bainbridge." (Especially if they're not called Stephen Bainbridge). Or sometimes they pick the phone up and go "452644". NOBODY does that in real life!!
Well, to be fair there wouldn't be that many with that exact telephone number even allowing for international dialing protocols.
Incidentally, my grandparents did it - 343364 - it had a nice ring to it. They were one of the first to have a phone in our village. Their number started off as Market Deeping 64 and gradually grew to the six figures we get today.
Um...
I think I've said enough.
