Belfast City Essay No. 1

[FEENme1]

R wee country! ya missed the large groups of milbags an mickys

[glitterSkin0]

This was quite funny. I'm guessing your still not stuck here in belfast though?

Belfast is trying so hard to be captial of culture now with its many a festival, including 'The Titatic made in Belfast ' Festival. Catchy huh?

[shazzer1976]

Too funny!

[mahargraham85]

ha ha i just saw my granddad...

[whonut]

What age are you, 13?

[knucklesf]

another gem from jettloe!!! lol keep em coming dude!!

[Belfastchild1974]

I saw this because a friend of mine posted this video on facebook. Have to say I like it. Nice humorist touch

[nilad69]

Hey cool video. A different approach that is really funny. Can't believe there are people stupid enough to leave some of the responses you have received though! And just to clear up the thing about the Titanic for r111111999, Belfast didn't sink the Titanic, nor was the city in any way responsible for her demise. It has been proven that the blame lies with the persons who decided to drive the ship too fast in dangerous waters. It just goes to show a hundred years ago as today, Speed Kills!

[r111111999]

Well the Titanic , was built not to sink. Iceberg or no Iceberg. Suppose they should have asked for their money back.

[r111111999]

anyone offended by this needs to take a good look at themselves goto the belfast city hospital and ask for a sense of humour transplant.

Belfast famous for building a ship that sink. yahoo. Maybe in Florida they should build a Space Shuttle Challenger Quarter. Or in Berlin a Big Ballon that goes bang to every now and again to remind people of the great Hindenburg. FFS!

[kb1234561]

He said..IRA..irish royal army....WTF!!!

[JonicaChannel]

clear off back to america n get fat...norn iron doesn want you..

[olliet24]

IRA stands for Irish republican army you bloody moron, newzealand is not in australia, you are a bloody idiot

[marxist854]

Okay here's my analysis

Get a decent mic

Acting and voice over was quite poor quality

Humour predictable and uninteresting

Amateur camera angles and handling

How the fuck is this edited? with an iMac? get a real editor and program

Overall I would give it a C+, don't go expecting any awards too soon

My advice, go back to media class

[rash2]

hehe that was funny. loved the inclusion of a bit of gershwin.

[craigpaulmurray]

now that i have watched some of it i now see it definately a joke, obviously the people below me didnt watch it b4 making comment

[craigpaulmurray]

its not meant to be factual, thats my guess anyway!

[lutonlutonalltheway]

for crying out loud do some research mate! 'county northern ireland'... 'irish royal army'... only a couple things off the top of my head, jesus christ.

[ManoftheBeret]

Fucking christ, kids. I thought Northern Ireland was supposed to have a famous sense of humor. Learn to recognize it.

[ChrisMcHugh]

Loved It

[fukprc]

ANTRIM! Y'eeejit.

[54spiritedwill54]

haha i love it. i didnt realise how many KFCs we had until after that video.

[lukemccaffrey]

you dont know the First thing about Belfast, "County Northern Ireland" "Troublings" "sectratarian" Hit yerself a Slap.

[larrylfc]

FFS mate get your facts right u havnt even translated the name of belfast right what a joke it means "the mouth of the sandbag" in relation to the river farset being the mouth of the river lagan what a twat u r.

[CULAVE]

This is entertaining and Belfast is a great city. Makes me think of the Waldorf Astoria!

[joelio1988]

hahaha COUNTY Northern Ireland

[TKKhanna]

"Irish Royal Army" haha

[2mike0]

loved it, shouldnt have stopped at holywood though and gone the full welt straight into Bangor! everyone knows thats the real capital of N.I! plus they got 2 signs.

[delaney300]

nice one very funny,pity the slack jawed barcode wearing smick heads did'nt get it,what do expect from a load of skip rats.

[bernieszu]

Made me laugh a lot, but I think non-locals wouldn't get most of the jokes. I never knew there were so many Belfast people on youtube who had suffered radical SOH amputation

[lisenaw]

Excellent!! very funny, very dry, very good!! I love the little inaccuracies, I've had a real chuckle at this. I cant believe you've had so much abuse from people who just don't get it, how odd. I'm from N.Ireland too and it made me laugh out loud, always a good measure of how humorous something is, well done. I'm also a sometime, rookie short film maker, I'd love to do some work with you if your ever back in N.Ireland.

[kazamaraz]

This is crap.

[fergalms]

Belfast is in the COUNTRY of Northern Ireland, and is in COUNTY of Antrim, and Down. Northern Ireland is NOT a county. Belfast is the capital city of Northern Ireland.

[kazamaraz]

Aren't americans thick???

[jimisback]

OK I get it that you say it is comedy. But it is not. It is just CRAP. How is this funny?

[jimisback]

Get it right. Belfast is not a county. Are you fecking Mickey Moore?

[jimisback]

You have ao many things wrong. The troublings???? I had to stop at that point.

[Dazz469]

Haha, this is well cheeky, if not slightly offensive! Just as well I have a typical Belfast sense of humour tho! Clever, very good :)

[sellmealemon1]

county antrim.....antrim!!!!! Troubles... not troubelings!!!!! The R in ira stands for republicain not royal or else that ould totaly defeat the point!!! I no these are supposed to be jokes but dey r not remotly funny n could b offensive ta loadsa people!!!

[a16xt]

thank god for paddy having some sense.

bocher222 - you're ignorant, you honestly had no idea this was tongue in cheek?

Aarondebaron - I don't think it needed to be intelligent, to go way over your head. Sadly.

MinceMeat - congratulations, it's not a county. I, and 90% of the other viewers, realised this was a joke immediately. Northern Ireland may not be a county, but you, sir, are a fool.

[FluffyDivine]

do we really say that bit at the end?

[yokai1968]

I thought 'sake' was a Japanese alcoholic beverage? My favourite being Junmai Dai-Ginjo Tamanohikari "Bizen-Omachi 100%".

[paddylavin]

hmmmm.

[GrettaGib]

Northern Ireland is not a county. Doh!!

[paddylavin]

last word was supposed to be 'sake'. humble apologies.

[paddylavin]

for anybody who takes this seriously, please message me and we'll have a short and rather frank exchange of views. has every fucker from county norn iron had a sense of humour bypass, for fuck skae!!

[batbabe65]

Talk Shite!

[bocher222]

yanks are so ignorant they know nothing

[aarondebaron]

strange ...it must be quite intelligent humor, because it went way over my head.

[MinceMeat]

Northern Ireland is not a county.

[WelcometoNI]

Did you read the last fifty posts that said this already? Idiot.

[paddylavin]

very funny, i went to school in holywood, you depicted the place perfectly. nice one.

[Kazza06]

this is total bullshit.I know its suppose to be a piss take but its not funny at all

[yokai1968]

The narrator is just not funny, just another ignorant American taking the piss out of another culture. Is it any wonder everyone hates Americans?

[NewAgeIrish]

whats this utter wank set to the music from a cadburys flake ad.

[LibraryGeek007]

Belfast is in Co.Antrim. Not Co.Northern Ireland!

[mekoshea]

i'm embarassed to come from the same place as the twats getting so offended by this harmless video. chill out people. good god, learn to take the piss out of yourself. "irish royal army", very good.

[DontxBringxPajamas]

holywood!! lol and elfast!! they were the only funny parts no offence! so true about holywood though!! i live near it!!

[glowdidy]

you sir are insulting the thousands of people who get the joke

[marcotrelford1986]

what a load of wank

[sj2107]

you are insulting the memory of the thousands of people who suffdered and died in the troubles and the people of northern ireland. and northern ireland is a country not a county, if your going to do something like this at least get your facts right

[sprig007]

lmao@elfast and irish royal army , pure class . quit moaning you belfasters lol, its nice to see footage of ur town without some berk throwing a brick or petrol bomb ;)

[mckee2000]

belfast is awesome! this guy is a cheeky bastard but i love it! he's right about holywood!

[glitterfee]

Woah, you people really take yourselves seriously.

I used to live just up from Shaftsbury Square in Tolgate house. I loved that screen, dammit! <3

[belfmad]

its a country not a county r u stupid? and thats the least funny thing ive ever seen in my life. ur a nob.

[catherinehobbit]

i cant believe you spent a day of your life making that

[jumpingjack7877]

some people on here are real scrotum ticklers, its a joke u cock knockers, the guy obviously lives here and is having a laugh what happened to belfasters having a sense of humour?

[UlsterIsIrish]

it went out the window when some stupid yankee cunt made a shite video.

[jumpingjack7877]

yeh them yankees lets murder them all for being yankees and never let them back into our great country

[neil1306]

We have a sence of humour but we dont like other smartarse cunts taking the piss out of us

[plantman4]

belfast sucks...FACT!

[lgallagher14]

what ?

[ehaughey]

typical sad american, you know absolutly nothing about belfast. there are just as many KFCs as there are mcDonalds, u shuda pointed that out too seeing your so bloody smart. IRA is Irish Republican Army you numpty. Why dont you make a video about America seeing your president is a nit wit, who cant speak proper english. That would be a nice video dont ya think? including all the other problems that come with America such as obesity and murders?? and the list goes on. Sort it out mate!

[neil1306]

Was funny to begin with but as it went on was shite and pure typical American behaviour thinking your better than everyone else,Belfast may be a shithole but im proud to be from this city!

[beatlegeek]

ok i'm frm belfast city and that was complete shite! you american gobshite! you're making fun of our wee town that's why we hate yousens!

[sophiepinkfairy]

also i dont actually like KFC.

[sophiepinkfairy]

haha i love it. i didnt realise how many KFCs we had until after that video.

[meekys1988]

i would like to point out that belfast is not a county it is a city, and there is no such place as northern ireland the place to which you refer is the North of Ireland, and perhaps some members of the IRA (Irish Republican Army) take offence at this video and mean to make a video of their own entitled Execution of Jetloe.

Oglaigh na hEireann

[tonydeenm]

lol meekys1988!!! he never said belfast was a county, he said Norn Iron was!, Which it is not, it is the best wee country in the world at da mo... if you dont like that then move somewhere else... :)

and ok he said irish royal army , which come on was quite funny!!! we all know he was wrong!!

ok and quote "there is no such place as northern ireland the place to which you refer is the North of Ireland" you do know both mean the same? your not that simple are you?

[Weekendatdizzys]

Great video. Its a shame that some people don't get. I agree that people in Belfast love Unlucky Fried kitten LOL. Great Great Great!!

[creodas]

that was funny... and so true.. Belfast is such a sucky city compared to the rest of the world... but i wouldnt swap it for anything..

[kainedamo]

By for the funniest, satirical observation of Belfast, by a foreigner or Irish man for that matter. Fantastic, well done old chap, made me proud to be a Belfasterian! By the way, can't seem to get your website working... (different person, same username)

[kainedamo]

Some dense people here. Number 1: The video is a joke. Number 2: I'm sick of snobs that keep saying Belfast is uncultured (not aimed at the maker of this video)

[Jarren202]

Sorry, this was really well made but I found it incredibly boring. Perhaps if it was edited to 3 or 4 minutes, but there was far too much pointless filler.

[BobbyDazla]

Excellent - Belfast looks better now than when i left! lol

[206mic]

bollox

[Idlevice]

Is anyone else worried that the people who thought this was serious didn't comment about the 'New Zealand, Australia' line. Maybe they believe it to be so?

[hosenburger]

its a joke guys, if we cant make fun of ourselves who can we ? its just a bit of craic calm yourselves, btw jettloe it really is a great film, and a nice sound track

[Lukedeee]

stupid fucking american

[BelfastFenian]

Total load of cack,irish royal army? what are u on,we dont like kfc,u thinking of americans again,u showed it in black and white to make belfast look like a shit hole,u didnt even show the main parts of belfast,u didnt show any riots which is part of the history,what a wanker you are.

[hanobarca]

Come on surely you realise he is taking the piss? No?

[jettloe]

Well Stellazine you can kinda think of lettertoamerica.blogs.com as an audio Belfast City Essay - over 40 hours of entertainment and growin' every week...

[stellazine]

Ok ok I will look at replys to my comments and your lettertoamericablogs!!! I'm interested to see the Artist in Exile one, we are good at our protests here!

Good to meet you.

[ThePaginator]

Did I say "Ed Wood"? Surely I meant "Woody Allen". Surely.

[ThePaginator]

Excellent work! You truly are the Ed Wood of the Interweb.

[Seamus616]

the mistakes were purpose.

[stellazine]

This is pretty funny, but when do we get to see Belfast City Essay No. 2? There is so much more to this peculiar place!!!!

[bwalamoo]

MY HOUSE!!! But.. Apart from my little bit of fame... Belfast is awesome (Boring wet and dirty) and wet... Again. Hey we don't like KFC that much, theres just nothing else to do but eat chicken. Talk to the locals I'm sure you'll get a hardy welcome bottle in the face or 'OI YER MA TRAMP!' From one of the 'smicks' or 'millies' (Boys & girls).. Hey, don't forget George Best too! Awesome video, keep us all updated.

[conorh33]

excellent video, hilarious look at my faboulous city and to those of you who dont get the jokes, how bloody thick are you!!!!

[zandoproductions]

cdenver, have you no sense of humour at all? They are clearly jokes! Lighten up on this guy!

[baldostuart]

very funny. grahamftw, wise yourself up.

[shonastarr]

Belfast is such a shithole, and this video proves it!!!!

[cdenver]

Northern Ireland is not a County

IRA does not mean Irish ROYAL Army, Its Irish Republican Army and a comment like this would get you shot in the back of the head son! We also are not fond of KFC......but apart from all that, you make a good video, music, cinematic scenes were excellent. But please get your information right because its very offensive to us Catholics especially [referring to county and IRA]. As i said i respect your filming skills and good work.

[WelcometoNI]

Maybe you want to take this comment "back"?

[zandoproductions]

I think we can safely say that all the 'errors' were jokes... what happened to the famous Irish sense of humour? As a resident of Belfast myself, I found it hilarious.

[funkitori]

Belfast is in county antrim...i shud no i live there!!!

[WelcometoNI]

Though your not sure? Right?

[grahamftw]

by the way its irish republican ary not irish royal army but who gives a fuck they are still taigs. up the U.V.F

[Idlevice]

This comment has been here for 2 months and nobody's decided to take issue? What the hell is happening here?!

[Idlevice]

Oh, never mind.  Just realised he's from Larne.

[WelcometoNI]

You really are an Idiot. I met you once.

[grimreafer00]

that was a great film (= good work. fuckthepommesiraforever

[benn234]

That was brilliant Jett, though obviously wasted on some of the local lot judging from their comments. Maybe it will play better in Paris, county France. Cheers!

[weeshorty99]

Haha, i like this video. Nice one =)

[fourheadedmoose]

Haha, but must say this is quite funny.

[fourheadedmoose]

Belfast is in county Antrim, well most of it anyways.

[JeSuisAllee]

What Northern Ireland is a country and justso you know Belfast is in county Down

[ruthhh]

whatttttt northern ireland isn't a countyyyyy
