[Gratuitous comment pointing out that Chefguy was actually using braces–not brackets–in post #107, thus demonstrating my skill at the language and my obviously oversized sexual organs while adding nothing useful to the discussion regarding the film]

[sarcastic comment abuot your misspelling of the word ‘undersized’ along with a misspelled word so as to satisfy Gaudere’s Law]
[Reply to tell you why it won’t work]
[Post declaring that a previous poster’s clever phrase would make an excellent name for a band]
Link to a URL that plays the clip better than the one in the OP:
followed by a snide comment about the fact that no one has given that link so far.
[Observation that link is in post #125, thereby making your post superfluous.]
[Music from the soundtrack is performed on “Glee,” “American Idol,” and “Dog the Bounty Hunter.”]
[[superior tone of voice]Post to tell you I don’t watch any of those shows so I wouldn’t have known about it anyways[/superior tone of voice]]
[Post to tell you that this movie is based on a really obscure British TV show from 15 years ago that ran for 2 seasons and I have the whole thing on DVD and have every line from every episode (all 9 of them) memorized and you’re all a bunch of stupid posers because you’ve never heard of it and you’ll never go out of your way to watch it…losers. Here’s a really, really, really low quality clip with garbled audio from website that’s not youtube…Don’t bother trying to convince me that Marple, Poirot and House did it better]
[post saying I caught JoeyP’s oh-so-vaunted Brit TV show on PBS 5 years ago and found the entire thing stupid, coupled with the demand that I want my 26 hours back]
[Obligatory comment that British humor – er, humour – simply doesn’t make sense to Americans]
[Comment about actor I don’t like and won’t go see any movie he is in, including this one]
[Response loaded with assumed astonishment, pointing out that said actor may just be the most brilliant actor of the 20th AND 21st centuries (excepting Sean Connery, of course, because he’s not an actor – he’s a demigod)]
[ :dubious: ]
[Post from a new user asking how to upload images]
[Post inquiring about why the board doesn’t allow avatars.]
[ Hi, Opal ! ]
[Post discussing how the movie butchers the source material]
[snarky post stating the obvious: that movies and books are two different mediums. Duh!]
[Post repeating earlier post nearly verbatim about how the movie is terrible and a classic example of the Emporer’s New Clothes.]
[Edit adding who cares about the source material? This story is a bad as it gets.]
[post apologising for reviving a zombie thread simply because it’s so much fun to read, a thanks to Twickster for re-opening after closing, a note that the director’s new movie opens next month and it should be even better, another gratuitous Happy Rhodes reference and an Attack The Block reference]
