A Tribute to George Carlin

INFORMATION:
This video was removed for a while because of a copyright claim by Warner Music Group, for the bit "Euphemisms". I disputed this because all footage in this video is from his HBO concerts. Just to let everybody know in case they manage to take it down for good. I hope not.

George Carlin died yesterday, 22nd of June, 2008. He was 71 years old. Jeez, he was here just a minute ago.

Never was there a man that could make you both laugh, think, and even question the way we look at the world, the words we use, and the little things we all know about. Yesterday I lost one of my longest standing heroes. This is my small tribute to that man, George Carlin.

There should be a biopic on George's life and Russel Crowe would be the best actor to play him!

[Efreeti]

Russell Crowe? How about no.

[Divaker Timothy]

Aahh Come on! He would be amazing as George!

[Efreeti]

He could be made to look like old George now, but he doesn't look anything like how George looked for most of his life, and he's a shit actor with a shit personality and doesn't deserve it, and his voice is NOTHING like George's.

hbo is a Warner property 

[Efreeti]

But, like I've said so many times, Warner Music Group doesn't seem to be a subsidiary of Warner.

[Efreeti]

Could you possibly write less properly?

[OseaRehello]

This video made me cry, seriously, i'm not kidding.

[chica476]

He was 71? So young...

[Gary Ugarek]

WMG does a lot of film and video distribution through Warner subsidiary known as WEA. I know because my film is through WEA as a distribution party.

[Gary Ugarek]

Russell Crowe? Are you serious. George made fun of him?

See, It's Bad for you. (George imitates a phone call)

"Hey Steve, what time does the circle jerk start tonight?(Pause) Ok, well start without me. Oh, Don't worry I am eating a bunch of oysters and watching a horny movie? (pause again) It's called Tarzan fucks a zebra. (pause, as if to Steve asks who stars in it) Russell Crowe.

[Gary Ugarek]

I can't complain... Time Warner owns WEA, who distributes my films... I get nice distribution and they don't edit the content.

But yes they can be anal about copyright of their material.

If anything they should embrace it. I don't know how many comedy specials I have watched on YouTube then went to Amazon and order. However, when it comes to GC specials, I just order, no need to see a preview. I know he is a comedic genius.

Comedy isn't the same without him.

[GlassMufasa]

Time Warner owns everything. Fuck these media monopolies! Fuck them I say!

[Gary Ugarek]

WMG HBO WB all the same company - TIME WARNER

[Divaker Timothy]

Well...Lets just say the jury's still deciding on that! But there sure as hell should make a movie on the life of this awesome man!
