Hey thanks for reminding me I've been meaning to check out The Games. Just watched a couple of episodes and it's really pretty fantastic. I'm not sure Twenty Twelve can be accused of ripping them off any more than, say, The Thick of It could be said to have ripped off Yes, Minister; but there are a lot of similarities. Now I just wish there was a Beijing version.

Two things about Twenty Twelve:

1. It's a rip off of an Australian comedy set before the Sydney Olympics. The creators pitched it to the BBC, who passed then made one exactly the same.

2. It's not very funny. It's like a who's who of b-grade British comedic actors.

Will have a look at Him & Her if it's any good.

Thank you. I've patched up the embed, and promoted one of your pqueue'd vids as a token of gratitude.

Just out of curiosity, why the downvote? http://videosift.com/video/Questions-to-ask-Batman

I'm not watching any of these. I refuse to see any content till I'm in the cinema.


I don't think you're going to see any of these virals as part of the film. And as someone who's super, and I mean *super* evasive of spoilers, trailers and reviews, I declare this one spoilersafe.

lol comment of the week
