So glad to hear I'm not the only person who hated this film, and quite enjoyed Quantum of Solace.

Walking into Skyfall I had the chilling thought that maybe people loved Skyfall because it was stereotypical rubbish. And so it was. The action scene on the bikes was so fucking ridiculous I wanted to scream. Dude crashes over a bridge / cut to him immediately running atop a train. This is after we've been riding around the rooftops for a while. Fucking please.

And they had a fucking Island Lair! An Island Lair, people. In 2012. And this guy had broadband coming out his fucking ears on his abandoned island lair. Like they couldn't have tracked him down when he was doing his evil deeds. Jesus me beads.

I've been disappointed by Bond before, but after a great return to form in the last two, this was hackery writ large.

Love Tarantino, but I was sooooo disappointed with this film. It was over long, over simplistic, self-indulgent rubbish.

What a rubbish video. It's supposed to be about why (they believe) lane splitting is safe. It's 14 minutes long and they spend about 2 minutes actually talking about that.

What a load of bias rubbish. Very selective quoting. The ban on fox hunting was nothing to do with human rights, but rather animal cruelty. Foxes can still be hunted, with a gun of all things. You're just not allowed to let your dogs maul them to death because that's cruel. So what they're apparently campaigning against is a load of rubbish, hunting with guns is still legal.

Oh, and so is pistol shooting - you just have to keep your gun at a gun club. The only thing that's illegal is keeping your gun at home.

As for Tony Martin, he's a nutjob. Tony Martin had his gun license revoked in 1994 because he shot at someone who was stealing his apples. Ok, so the guy was on his land and stealing fruit, but it's OK to shoot them? No. No it's not.

There are a lot of inconsistencies in his story of the incident. He claimed to have shot from the stairs having been woken by the break in. He didn't, he was shown to have shot from a downstairs doorway. He was lying in wait for them and ambushed them. He shot the kid that broke in in the back as he was trying to escape.

I'm pretty sure in America the feeling is just that the kid had it coming, he shouldn't have been there. I don't buy into that at all.

Homicide with a gun in the UK: 0.07 per 100,000

Homicide with a gun in the US: 2.97 per 100,000

US rate is more than forty times that of the UK. Which country has broken gun laws? The simple facts are that I'm safer in the UK without a gun than I am in the states with a gun.

Figures found here.

To answer your question:

None


The end.


There are the bizarre arguments like mutually assured destruction, and the need for a militia just in case your government becomes so power hungry it sends in troops against you.

But both of those are rubbish.

His "data" is from two countries that define violent crime differently (violent crime is not necessarily gun crime), not to mention none of it supports his ending rant/conclusion about gun crime. It's non sequitur rubbish, aka "baffle with bullshit".

Superman doesn't have accelerated healing, he has invulnerability to non-magical attacks.

Lol I love how you go on this big long rant, and half the stuff you say is just rubbish. At least get your facts straight before whining.

I agree completely. Robert Reich is an intelligent and experienced economist, so he probably does understand the economy pretty well. Most of us do not understand it so well, so we latch onto the ideas of people whom we already agree with or whose framing of the issues pricks the right chemicals in our brains. Personally, trickle down sounds like rubbish to me, while giving the working class more money to spend sounds like common sense, but I couldn't hold my own against an expert who disagrees with me.

I don't know if it's a problem that most Americans don't understand economics, but if it is, this video isn't fixing it. 8 talking points that only sound good to people who already agree with them won't elevate the debate.

You don't have to be italian to make pasta, but its still italian food. Self-deprecation is undoubtably a very British trait. I'm not saying we have a monopoly on it, but we do it far more than anybody else and its fairly apparent in our comedy. The fact somebody like CK exists is just proof that the world is a lot smaller than it used to be. British comedy has been exported to the states, our cultures are mixing. Hell, I say trash instead of rubbish half the time so it doesn't surprise me that there are American comics with elements of "British" humour in their standup.

Maybe the analysis isn't spot on, but I think its a pretty good attempt.

As much as I would like to agree with you that the government doesn't feel sorry for spending tax money; we have been led to believe that tax breaks and loopholes for the rich specifically, did not and will create more jobs. After 11 years of practice, this proved to be a fruitless that only benefited the upper echelon. You want an example? Take Romney's money in Switzerland and The Cayman Island for example. I am sure he has the right to do with his money whatever he wants, but a show of good faith would be to invest that money back into the economy (tickle-down) instead of parking it overseas. That, I have a HUGE problem with.

I would be taxed more under a re-elected Obama, and I don't mind that because of the greater good. Today, he is the lesser of two evils. I would vote for Romney if he actually believed what he said, but his actions and his words don't go together - see previous paragraph.

It would be dishonest for anyone to think that lowering taxes alone, or cutting the deficit alone would stop the hemorrhaging.

When tax rates are lowered, government revenue increases.
When tax rates are raised, the wealthy scapegoats remove monies from the system, either by parking them in things like tax-exempt bonds or investing in countries with lower tax rates.
However Obama tries to explain away what we on the right have known and have empirical evidence to back it up, his results have been negative. Such failure should not be rewarded by punishing the rest of us with 4 more years of this rubbish!

Looks like made for TV rubbish to me

You guys are seriously debating this rubbish? Of course it's fraudulent, geesh.


I am fine with more people endlessly debating principles of physics and engineering than politics.

No way this rubbish can be classical!
