Swiss‚Ķ our family owed a video shop in the 80‚Äôs‚Ķ I was manager for about 6 years‚Ķ I watched everything and anything as would have to suggest films to customers who were undecided‚Ķ didn‚Äôt get too many chuck their VHS and Betamax‚Äôs at my head on returning them saying what a bunch of arty load of old cսnt‚Ķ so it was probably more a case of me listening to the Style Council‚Ķ.

"Ten of my favourite movies, some arty, some not: Some Like it Hot - not arty at all Once Upon a Time in America - very arty Once Upon a Time in the West - very arty The Good the Bad and the Ugly - not really all that arty, but I loves me a bit of Leone The Godfather - very arty Star Wars - not arty Goodfellas - a bit arty The Searchers - arty One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest - very arty Get Carter - not arty eaoe The list will be different tomorrow of course, probably in five minutes when I remember things like Nolan's Batman films, lots of John Ford westerns, It's a Wonderful Life etc, etc, etc So, I don't mind a bit of arty. What I hate is when a director tries to hit you over the head with it. n.b. Citizen Kane and fucking Banshees. And Nomadland. And other shit."

"In all seriousness everyone has different tastes and thank god they do otherwise life would be fucking boring… I have had raised eyebrows galore come my way when I have guffawed at peoples fav film and Shawshank Redemption comes up… I found it one of the biggest pretentious films ever… but saying that I watched it again a few months ago and enjoyed it more than I did the first time… but for me it’s not even in the same ball park as a Lawrence of Arabia, Godfather etc… oh and don’t get me on that new Top Gun film…. Fucking hell… what a mess (yet loads LOVED IT)…… and that was me sitting in a IMAX… however I will give Cruise his dos have a very nice P51 Mustang… Anyway as I say it would be boring if we was all whacking one off at the same films…"

"Bruuuno As the director of Banshees, I'm thrilled you enjoyed it. I think it's so important that cinema as a medium has a message, don't you? I didn't want to put the pretty Irish tart in it, but the studios... you know. The compromises one has to make for ones art. Did I mention that I'M A FUCKING AUTEUR? So the plebs can just fuck off, sit in their ghastly pub, tug their forelocks and fiddle with their dreadful flat caps."

"Banshees is a tedious Vincent Van Gogh biopic transposed to Oirland so they can have lots of pretty Oirishy scenery and Oirishy music played in dimly-lit Oirishy pubs. Swap ears for fingers, add a wicked copper fucking his John Mills in Ryan's Daughter son up the arse and MickTimPat's your uncle. It's a pile of cսnt aimed cynically and squarely at winning an uncontroversial arty Oscar. The Irish count as honorary blacks, so there'll be no squealing on that account, to be sure."

"Council Scum 11:57 Mon Mar 6 'Its really getting boring with the whole ""Women are much cleverer than men, much stronger than men"" crap. There is nothing wrong with strong male characters, it's like they are to ashamed to have one anymore. Even if they do have one in a vaguely decent light, he's always a bit stupid now, because women are much smarter...' This is why Disney is losing money hand over fist. If you tell half your audience they are thick and useless, they become reluctant to shovel bucks your way in order to be told that. It's especially silly when, in the real world, it's the half of your audience that specially enjoys the type of flicks you are making. For instance, I will have to endure some shit like the Banshees of Wosname in order to get get the other half to accompany me to see Antman 3. Why will I do that if I'm going to spend 2 hours being patronised and insulted in the film I do want to see? I might as well see neither. If it wasn't for Avatar 3 Disney would be bankrupt, and I'm really not sure Avatar 4 is going to pull off the same trick, because if you look below the blue cgi, that has pretty much the same message."
