  1. Saw two films at Vue yesterday. Orange Wednesdays and the kids are back in school = WIN

     

    Rise Of The Planet Of The Apes: I groaned at the thought of yet another remake/reboot, but it told a compelling story. Thumbs up. A mile ahead of the other POTA reboot which I thought was woeful.

     

    Apollo 18: Another "THIS IS TOTALLY REAL FOOTAGE!!!11!1!!eleven!" style of film, which I don't usually care for. (I think the Paranormal Activity films were gash; ditto The Fourth Kind et al) However it was a pretty good plot, albeit not one that requires much thought and relies quite heavily on your stock "quiet bit quiet bit quiet bit quiet bit LOUD BIT" device as a means to frighten. Thumbs up to this too, but it's not as good as the other film.

  2. Absolutely shit game for the neutral to watch. Ashton being on the field might have done something about that; he's their only great attack option.

     

    Wales were absolutely heroic in defence today. It is remarkable they weathered so much of England's driving without conceding anything but a few penalties, evne when a man down. They'll bloody well need that if they're going to stand up to the likes of Fiji.

  3. A couple of nominations/rants that didn't make the cut

     

    Axl Rose - I am a massive fan of the music of Guns N' Roses, to this day. Which makes it even more disappointing that Axl Rose is such an egotistical cunt with timekeeping as bad as his off-stage cuntery is monolithic.

     

    Jedward - The fact that someone with access to firearms hasn't turned amateur sniper within range of these arseholes makes me cry for the human race.

     

    Cher Lloyd - She looks like she applies makeup with a trowel.

     

    Lawrence Dallaglio - Smug, arrogant, bald wanker who has no fucking place on the payroll of the licence fee payer. Is absolutely incapable of discussing a rugby match for longer than 60 seconds without mentioning Jonny Wilkinson or the 2003 Rugby World Cup. Regardless of who's playing, even if neither team are England. Especially if neither team are England.

     

    Fergie - Absolute fucking BUTCHERS Guns N Roses songs every time she sings them, especially at the Superbowl. As well as every other song she sings. I use the word 'sing' loosely, because she wails like she's caught her pubes in her zip

  4. Are we serious about this? We're not allowed to repeat scurrilous stories about celebrities in case Neil gets sued? This place is more important than I thought.

     

    Agreed. I think it's a bunch of crap, personally. You should see some of the stuff that gets posted by dithering retards on the Freeones board, and that's about 1000 times bigger than this board, and not once have I heard of any legal notices being posted to the moderators. For instance, people are always posting that Carmella Bing has AIDS on there (SHE DOESN'T) - never heard a peep from her or her 'people'.

     

    Nobody gives a shite about some British wrestling forum, least of all some irritating short-arse adolescent American pop singer.

     

    You'd be surprised.

     

    The fact that that singer in question has a career at all is proof in itself that he has one of the most carefully managed online reputations of any celebrity. Carmella Bing, on the other hand - if you search for her on Google the 4th link down involves her engaging in ass-to-mouth sex. Apparently. So, not really that much of a reputation to protect.

  5. My full rant was pruned but continued as follows: "Does nobody remember she's a racist who beats up loo attendants in clubs? She's a gutter peasant with above average looks but not above average singing talent."

     

    I am very, very pleased she made the top 5.

     

    Jordan and James Corden must surely be 2 of the remainders

  6. Very pleased - but not surprised - to see Cameron and Clegg enter the top 10. this has been a good list so far. Who can the remaining 6 be? Have we had Cheryl Cole yet? Jordan?

     

    Also, a wrestling-only twatlist would be a great idea if only for the rants about Matt Hardy which could be [zing]even longer than his tab at McDonalds [/zing]. Naturally, the quips would be far better than that. In fact scrub the list, just get the wordsmiths of the forum to compete to see who can mock Matt in the funniest fashion.

  7. Really is feast or famine with Wales. You never see them take 2nd or 3rd. They're either getting a grand slam or languishing in the bottom half of the table. No consistency at all.

     

    I'm currently arguing with my friends on Facebook that despite what the headlines will say tomorrow, Wales are the ones who really bottled it today. They went into that match with a slim chance of taking the championship, but ended up doing so badly they finish as 4th. Awful.

     

    Also, who's Shaun Edwards punched to get himself suspended/sacked?

  8. This morning I put a fiver at 100-1 on Wales winning the Six Nations. Part one of the plan is complete.

     

    Edit: ...and then Wales fucked up their end of the bargain

  9. Commence riot. I voted him at #10 presuming that hatred for him was so vehement and obvious that he'd be ranked in the top 10 even if everyone who disliked him voted him lowest. Clearly, I'm wrong.

     

    The lack of Russell Brand and McIncunt not making the top 10 are big shockers to me. Disappointing, yes, but let's see who got in before moaning too much.

  10. While Katy Perry is indeed fit, fitness shouldn't come into it when determining twattishness. I don't take personality into account when selecting wank material. I think that quote justifies her inclusion ahead of her husband on my list - even though he can be a twat at times, I think Russell Brand would be the first to admit he's basically a wordy cockney urchin who got very, very lucky indeed rather than the second coming of Jesus in a daft wig that Perry seems to think he is.

     

    You have a beautiful, accurate way with words. I'd have just called him a cunt. We'd both be correct though.

  11. It's OK. I'll hate him more to make up the shortfall. I have a lot of hate to give.

     

    Lovely. Any of your twats come up yet? Mine haven't.

     

    Not yet, but I'm hopeful. At the very least, 2 "comedian" picks should make the list at the high end.

     

    I'd be quite interested to see the complete list, sans flowery descriptions, when it's all over. Just to see how close they were

  12. I said that to mattbro because he said we crowed. I feel the Welsh crow worse because the Welsh act like their victories mean more because it's some victory for pure rugby. It's this superior attitude which annoys the rest of us.

     

    Absolute bollocks, and I've already addressed why.

     

    as the largest rugby union in the world by a HUGE margin, that is why we and other teams crow when we beat you. You are the biggest, the richest, and have a large number of people to pick from

     

    Nothing to do with a superior attitude. If anything, you should be flattered not annoyed - England clearly are perceived as the team to beat; a benchmark of sorts by which the other nations test themselves.

     

    Hang on, but is there not a perception that England do "not play rugby"? Is it not the view that Wales play the prettiest rugby and have the most skilled forwards with the ball in hand in the Northern Hemisphere, behind New Zealand in the world?

     

    For me, part of why people hate England is because English rugby represents the English elite; the upper classes, the rich landowners, the aristocracy, the oppressive overlords basically. When we played Ireland at Croke Park we choked because the weight of pressure on the team was so great. The symbolism of England facing Ireland in *the* garrison game, at the home of the GAA with all the history of the Easter Rising, Hill 16 and Bloody Sunday, it was like they were fighting for freedom all over again. It's not just "we want to beat the biggest union", it's about beating those oppressive bastards.

     

    That perception (that England don't play "pretty" rugby) is not the reason for us to savour the wins when they arrive. That isn't to say I haven't heard it trotted out as a criticism in the last few years - not this year though.

     

    However, the latter paragraph is correct, especially for the Celtic nations. Either way, it's certainly not due to us thinking we are superior or play "prettier" rugby.

  13. Two recent example of coaches talking absolute, embarrassing shite

     

    Gatland about Adam Jones

     

    I hope Adam has been training hard because he knows if he turns up on Tuesday overweight he will be sent home.

     

    He is someone who only has to look at food to put weight on.

    Marc Lievremont

     

    Do I feel responsible for that? No, they betrayed us, they have betrayed me and they have betrayed the French national team shirt.

     

    Do you really think that I told them to play as they did against Italy? I was ashamed. I do not have the impression we asked them to walk on the moon. I do not ask for complicated things.

     

    This match was an hallucination. I do not want to clear myself from the blame but they invented things on the pitch.

     

    They are lacking in courage. They are good guys but cursed with what is obviously cowardice.

     

    They are not even capable of admitting to their own mistakes. Perhaps it is a trend among the new generation
