24 Hour Party People

I liked him in Hamlet 2. And the first season of would I lie to you.

I like Hamlet 2 but I've always thought he was seriously miscast and that they should have gotten a better director. The script itself is great.

Oh dude. He's so good as a pretentious twat. It's a fantastic almost live action south park. 4 out of 5 stars.

I haven't watched it in over a decade but I remember thinking that while he gave a comedic performance, he didn't give a performance that matched the tone of the movie. And the director didn't seem like he knew how to shoot comedy.
It was actually written by Pam Brady who worked on South Park and co-wrote Team America.

There's a movie called theater camp I think which matches the tone better but I fucking hated. Hamlet 2 just hit it right for me.

I didn't like Theatre Camp either.

My exwife was totally like "this movie is so you". I think she thought I'm gay.

Coogan is/was famously an enormous cunt.

Didn’t he get blamed for some celebrities death ? He also fucked Courtney Love. I admire that. He had an interview on the show, should be online

 

[lowend73]

He can be as big a cunt as he wants as long as he keeps doing partridge content. The newer series are still good and hold up better than the old stuff the audiobooks he does are great

Is that a tv series ? I’m a dirty American, we don’t have much tv show wise. Luther and the 1st season of Sherlock was good.

So if I remember it correctly (I'm stoned) he was involved in work place sexual harrassment. Killed his career for 5 years.

I don’t know where I pulled that from

If it was a co-workers vagina you might be Steve Coogan

You've not heard of Alan Partridge ever in your life?

Have a couple of Soleros and get your head together, man, for Gods' sakes.

Ever seen Soupy Norman? It's really good.

He made Courtney Love relapse and I think that was somehow tied into Owen Wilson's suicide attempt. But he was known as a cunt years before he started making stuff in America.

Alan Partridge is one of the greatest comedic characters ever conceived. What's interesting is that it's a multimedia character so he's had several TV shows, TV specials, a movie, radio show, webseries, live shows, podcasts and several books. The Alan Partridge books are the funniest things I've ever read.

This must be the weirdest six degrees of separation there is. I didn't even know Court & Owen knew each other.

 

[TaintofGeorge]

Was hooky from joy division/new order wasn't it?

yes

 

[TaintofGeorge]

All Noely G did was run cables for Inspiral Carpets, let's not get silly.

He was there quite abit. Once the E's kicked in in a major way. To be honest you could probably have played any old shit and it would have become big

 

[TaintofGeorge]

Oasis were different from that whole scene as were Blur brit pop as it's labeled wasn't really a scene but a moment.

I guess the jump from happy Mondays to stone roses to Oasis isn't a huge jump but I don't remember if the stone roses even made the film. Noel was at the hacienda as a teen so was influenced in a way but not really musically

Don't forget to chuck The Smiths in with that too

Took me awhile to get into the Mondays but now they're one of my favorite bands. At first I heard "Little Matchstick Owen" and thought it just sounded like a retarded guy over terrible noise. After watching 24PP a few times they grew on me a lot. I even saw them live when they toured with Psychedelic Furs before I really dug/understood their shit. I guess I first listened to them as a super opinionated kid and then maybe it was no coincidence I had gotten into weed/ecstasy and such before I started really liking them. Pills, Thrills, and Bellyaches is groovy as fuck all the way through. Don't know why they haven't been sampled by hip hop shit more, if they were at all.

I think bummed is a nearly flawless record. it’s an ecstasy-fueled cacophony of euphoria, top to bottom. fucking love that record, and personally prefer it to pills n thrills (even though the ladder is a more focused album)
