  • Hasn't American comedy become an oxymoron? Their comedy these days is simply not intrinsically funny, on any level. What it *has* become though, as Little Man, demonstrated, is sick, mean, vindictive, offensive, biggotted shite. I say this with a heavy heart since I was always a fan of Fraiser, Cheers, and Seinfeld.

  • In the past decade, we've had Arrested Development and Curb Your Enthusiasm which are both terrific (Although Curb has been letting the side down lately.) The Coen Brothers are still responsible for some of the best dark humor in the world and there are few sitcoms on at the moment that are funnier than It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia. Sure, there's a lot of shit out there, but you can say the same about British comedy. For every Thick of It, there are a dozen Little Britains.

  • Thanks so much for uploading these. I miss having them on the BBC website. Are there any more in store?

  • I may post Zidane: A 21st Century Portrait soon. Beyond that, I'll mostly just do requests or the odd new release that outsiders can't access thanks to the BBC's bullshit rules.

  • @microscopic it is evil, because when films like this become successful it opens the floodgates and makes shit like this acceptable, thus continuing the erosion of decent film making

  • I cried with laughter for about 10 minutes after he said 'It is...EVIL'

  • The Ludovitec technique? Vitejc? Vitech? I didn't know it had a name...just thought it was known as "holding subjects eyes open with patented harness device".
