Thanks to Justin for finding “chelsea” reviewing a film on the HMV site.

Rubbish
This film was rubbish as it was in french and i am english!!!!!!
chelsea

Tell me about it. Just last night, I saw a film that was 104 minutes long whereas I’m 6’2″.

My top tip for coping with this kind of shit is to get yourself at least 498 friends on Facebook then join the group “I Love Xmas!”. Puts it all in perspective.

    The only explanation for an IQ that low is that his second name is “bun”. And he’s an actual bun.

    I think he’s an actual bun.

    People who can’t navigate DVD menus and find the subtitle options should be surgically attached to paedophiles.

  5. on 22 Mar 2010 at 10:58 am Roeby

    find the subtitle options

    Somehow I suspect that Chelsea would be even more affronted at the idea of having to READ during a film.

    He may be English (not english) but he can’t write it properly.

    I’d love to see the expression on Chelsea’s face when they find out Bruce Lee didn’t really talk like he was doing a voice over for an Old Spice advert.

    To be fair*, HMV doesn’t seem to say anywhere that it is in French (unlike Amazon who list it clearly as such) and besides she was only insulting the French, who already hate us, so no harm done.

    The 1954 film of the same name sounds much more fun. Give me marauding giant ants over feral French teenagers any day. Also, no subtitles, although our chelsea would probably complain about it being in black and white. What is this? Some sort of art movie?

    * – Also, I have a long-standing grudge against HMV, since they once falsely accused me of shoplifting, which inclines me to side with almost anybody against them, even a berk like chelsea.

    Also, no subtitles, although our chelsea would probably complain about it being in black and white.

    I once went out with a girl who refused to watch Casablanca on the basis that “the special effects are always rubbish in black and white films”.

    By way of excuse, she did possess the most spectacular breasts I’ve ever seen.

    The 1954 B&W giant ants film is one of my favourites, even though it is an American film and I am English.

  17. on 22 Mar 2010 at 1:53 pm Oaf

    even though it is an American film and I am English.

    But does it have English subtitles?

  18. on 22 Mar 2010 at 1:54 pm Oaf

    The last time I was in France I watched a French film with subtitles in French. Not sure why really.

  19. on 22 Mar 2010 at 2:02 pm Shackleton

    The last time I was in Madrid, I watched an Italian film with Spanish subtitles, and a Portuguese film which was mostly French language with Spanish subtitles. I know why, and it was because it was €2 a ticket.

    Chelsea’s review reminds me of the reviews on Lovefilm.com of the ‘Adult’ movies, which are all invariably one-star and say things like ‘BY THE WAY, it should be noted these films are not HARD-CORE.’ What they should say though is

    ‘Despite my penchant for pornography, I have as yet failed to apprise myself of UK licensing law and as such rented this film AND DIDN’T EVEN GET TO SEE IT GOING OR ANYTHING.

    WASTE OF MONEY. ONE STAR (waiting for ‘no-star’ rating to be available, along with the restoration of the recommend button on HYS).

    Disappointed and flaccid, Royal Tonbridge Wells‘

  20. on 22 Mar 2010 at 2:09 pm Richard Littlejohn's Funny Bone

    Hmm, Chelsea’s comment on its own, doesn’t make sense. What she/he/it should have said of course is:

    “This film was rubbish as it was in French and i am a monolingual English twat”

    As am I, it turns out, however, I don’t write fucking dumb film reviews on HMV.com. Which makes it alright.

  21. on 22 Mar 2010 at 2:11 pm Richard Littlejohn's Funny Bone

    Looks like I closed my eyes and threw my commas at that comment and hoped for the best. O, well, it’s, too late, now

  22. on 22 Mar 2010 at 2:17 pm Ugeine

    Wake up people! They’ve been using this so called ‘language’ for years now.

    About time it was stopped!!!! If I’m right.

  23. on 22 Mar 2010 at 3:21 pm Authur Podd

    I saw “Us!”, the prequel to the 1954 original and it was rubbish as I’m an ant and the seat in front was blocking my view.

    No, it didn’t have any subtitles but it did have sub-standard special effects an dreadful acting. And giant plastic ants.

    I know Nelson et al. don’t take submissions from the Daily Mail on the fish/barrel principle, so I would like to bring your attention to the comment from “chris, uk” on the “Should filthy gayers be allowed to stay in B&Bs like normal folk” thread.

    “I was probably as narrow minded as this stupid woman until my son told me he was gay 2 years ago. He broke down in tears when he told me and I had no idea. He is not camp or effemintate in any way. In fact he is the most funny, caring, talented man you could ever wish to meet and I am not saying that because he is my son. I have two other children who aren’t in his league.”

    Twilight fan-girl

    What Twilight fan-girl fails to realise is that Jacob Black is in fact not a werewolf at all.

    The wolf-pack in the Twilight Saga are in fact actual wolves, whose transformation is stimulated by the presence of vampires.

    Clearly – snarf snarf snarf – she must have subsequently realised this in book 4 of the series.

    Rest assured that I shall harnessing the interwebs to record my derision of her factually innacurate statement within seconds.

    Worst comment …. ever.

    I’ve been listening to the Good Fight Ministries videos for about an hour and a half now in the background while working. I’m yet to work out whether or not it’s satire, but it is very bloody funny, in a tragic kind of way. Who wouldv’e thought Hall and Oates were satanists?

    The narrator’s ‘cowabunga, dudes!’ type accent only adds to the hilarity.

    That’s actually quite fucking touching and shit. He reminds of that well meaning dad of a gay son from Harry Enfield.

  31. on 22 Mar 2010 at 8:32 pm I can't find Chelsea

    I clicked on the ‘reviewing a film’ link, read Brian from Glasgow’s helpful review, then looked for Chelsea’s but it’s neither the newest or oldest or highest or lowest etc.

    Perhaps there’s a ‘most stupid’ button somewhere that I’m not seeing.

    From the ‘two gays have the cheek to think they get the right to walk into any bed and breakfast they want, like a normal person’ article from the Daily Mail:

    I have no sympathy at all for the two men turned away.

    There has to be a limit to the intrusion into private lives.

    Actually, it’s the six pack on Taylor Lautner which is suspect, not the wolf pack. Apparently.
