  1. The fact that there's 30,000 complaints and only two or so of them actually listened to it makes this whole thing ridiculous

     

    Wasn't there like only 2000 when the radio show was first broadcast. Seems like the media blowing it out of proportion has increased the amount of complaints ten fold. Its a shame everyone loves a good man hunt.


  2. Saying someone needs to be shot for making a decent film..

     

    Even if it was shit, being shot for it?

     

    Yeah because that's intelligent of you :/

     

    Wow, I didn't think I was being taken so literally. It was quite obviously an expression mate. I don't want anyone shot, I just don't think Hairspray touches on any sort of serious issue. Not that could be taken seriously anyway.


  3. Name a good point. Here I was thinking to be an actor you have to have at least some talent at acting.

     

    Wow, off topic. Erm . . .

     

    I won a bottle of wine once for being the best dressed at a fancy dress party. But as I was going to put it back on our table some sket came up to dance with me and knocked it out of my hands. Broken glass and wine all over a dance floor. I was gutted.


  4. None taken, I didn't choose the figure, it was just sent as a "goodie bag" kinda thing.

     

    All you need is the Hayden Christensen version of Anakin Skywalker figure and you have the collection of the characters that ruined star wars.


  5. So glad they did Hairspray, such a fun/happy/bubbly film which is actually good, as well as having a serious issue raised in it.

     

    The only good thing about hairspray was watching Christopher Walken dancing with John Travolta in a fat suit and playing a woman. Whoever thought of the idea of a cheesy schoolgirl musical revolving around black oppression needs to be shot.


  6. I got a square Hulla Hoop when they were doing that competition, got £20 I think. Got a picture printed in the Star Wars comic around the time Ep I came out, in the same magazine I managed to win tickets to see a Star Wars exhibit at the Barbican Centre, along with some other Star Wars shizzle, including a Jar Jar Binks figure, which has since been unopened. Hoping for pr0 monies later in life.

     

    And that Pokémon competition on Game's website.

     

    No offense mate, but who the fuck wants Jar Jar Binks?


  7. Russell Brand is alright, I thought there would be more support for him here to be honest. I know when he first started out on BBLB everyone thought he was a cock, but his stand up is pretty sweet.

     

    Jonathan Ross I can take or leave. Wouldn't mind his job though, especially the movie reviews.

     

    Comes across as though they went a little too far, but thats their style of entertaining: saying outrageous things etc. I thought that they would apologize and everything would be fine. Having people resign is a little far though, surely?


  8. Fucking shit Heroes doing that to Adam!! They've got ALOT of making up to do for that!

     

    I agree with you there, I did like the whole cheeky British thing. Especially with the rest of the cast all being incredibly sincere and serious. (I can't stand the guy who plays Suresh, especially in the first season he was shocking!) We can usually rely on Hiro and Ando's antics to lighten the mood, but the show takes itself too seriously sometimes. I've got that pretentious vibe from the past few episodes anyway. Which is a shame, because the show can be hilarious at times. Remember in series 2 where Parkman flies on Nathan's back and after landing says 'we never talk about that again'? Classic. I'm not saying the show should be less serious, just be broken up with some fun so its not so overbearing.


  9. Should have beaten the fucker to the ground.

     

    Get a grip, I mean really who cares? Are you really that anal? :indeed:

     

    Anyway, moving on topic. I don't really know what to say, I think you should take them for everything you can get. But still, if it was me that got hit I would have hit the guy back twice as hard.


  10. Its on the interviewing list...(questions an interviewer should ask). First time I interviewed someone I was going through it and saw "tell the interviewee to sell you a stapler" and I was like "what the fuck?" so I got them to sell me a PS3 and then a game and stuff. You know, stuff relevent to the job.

     

    Ah well. Hope it went well. I may have been able to provide you with pointers (because I did conduct about 40 Game interviews) but I am too late alas. But really theres no sure fire method.

     

    Thanks man. Luckily I've got the job anyway. :yay:

     

    It was a group interview thing were we got put in teams. They asked us to go round looking at the hardware boxes and give them the three main selling points of each console. Our team hadn't really moved and I had filled two pages. I did try not to sound like a nonce showing off, but nobody else was really clued in. In fact not many of them played games.

     

    I'm ecstatic though, thanks for all your responses. Even the penis related ones.
