  South Park vs. Kind Hearts & Coronets.

   

  Well, I will admit to laughing when Carrey pelts his girlfriend in the face with a snowball in Dumb & Dumber, but his films for me are generally a laugh-free zone. Doesn't mean I'm right, though.

  Just because it's low brow or physical or in your face comedy doesn't mean it's not funny. Charlie Chaplin vs Oscar Wilde is just a matter of taste.or Southpark vs.crap. I'm out of high-brow comedy to cite.where's my bourbon.?

  Gee, Darren -- are you saying you don't *like* either Carrey or Caruso? ; )

  (for the record, I cannot abide by Carrey, either)

    Hmm.

     

    Jim Carrey is an odious twat, actually. I cite "The Mask" as a particularly noxious example of his slappable mugging. The exception that proves the rule is "The Truman Show". Still, at least his hair in the Letterman clip is long enough to throttle him with.

     

    Caruso is an acting flyweight who has the most embarrassing removing or replacing sunglasses as a prop adjunct to delivering an appalling line (CSI : Miami is full of tripe like "Hmm." (removed sunglasses) "Elephant dung." (replaces sunglasses)). "Jade" is his absolute nadir.  His exception is "Session 9"; no idea where that came from but the film, and Caruso, are great. Actually, didn't he do a Mamet film? Mamet's direction sited Caruso's vapid, laboured style and delivery pretty well.

    I might point out that I noticed this shit about David Carouso eight hundred thousand years ago. And Jim Carey is God.

    Are you a CSI fan then, and if so, so you favour Las Vegas, Miami, New York or Tunbridge Wells?

    What got us into this mess was Politicians selling our rights down the river to business, decades ago.
    I would prefer to say realism, not cynicism.
    When we exert are rights of assembly and speech you end up with this years G20 incident, but I am not saying do not protest, or petition, as they are in essence still rights.
    It's all business as usual.

    Folk: Um, yeah -- I do. You don't have to, of course -- and that's within your rights to do so. But I actually believe paying attention, voting, calling your elected reps, speaking out and volunteering in your community still count for something.

    No, I don't wear rose-colored glasses. But I refuse to cave into cynicism -- that's what got us into this mess into the first place. 

     

    Keep on truckin',

       Ultimatley, it is Americans themselves who can help turn things around. Because they, after all, are technically the government.
