They are all on my banned list - including the Best Boy and Gaffer. The most gruesome load of unwatchable schlock that has polluted screens for many a long year.Badgerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11283813317560446754noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3804114935312811175.post-9598167707872091192010-01-27T12:20:46.765-05:002010-01-27T12:20:46.765-05:00Happy belated Australia day...

I enjoy watching Wimbledon from the semis onwards, but that's enough of a tennis fix to last me all year. 2003-2007 got a little predictable for me, for obvious reasons... But the last two finals have been cracking - Roddick really making Federer work for it last year was a great nail biter. As for the banal interview at the end - I couldn't agree more. <br /><br />Your dislike for actors like Adam Sandler is far from unhealthy. I don't see why we should worship the lowest common denominator just because educationally subnormal Americans do. My bugbear is actors who don't act at all but just play themselves, especially when their personality is one-dimensional - like Jennifer Aniston and Hugh Grant. I've not given up yet on Meryl Streep, but recent crimes against nature make it difficult, like Mamma Mia - which after becoming the biggest British film of all time demonstrates the breadth of our educationally subnormal population... But I should stop there. Mile-wide and inch-deep Hollywood isn't a great rant topic for me. Unrestrained capitalism/globalism and cultural homogeneity go hand in hand, and when the dominant force in that toxic mix is America, forcing its crap on the rest of the world (not that we resist) and suffocating other cultures, it's only depressing to dwell on where that leaves us.Parsifalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00216473343042128985noreply@blogger.com
