I wasn't insulting Scip.

Although when it comes to to antisemitism, Uke or Russki doesn't make much difference.  :homestar:

Shame

I watched it for the dick. Could have stuck to the first 10 minutes.

+I watched some thing called L5. Its some amateur made free internet sci fi.
It...is very cheap and nasty. Babylon 5 levels of acting and some humerous bloopers like the camera crew being clearly reflected in a guy's helmet.
Kind of interesting but it is just one inconclusive half hour episode

The plot seems to have an interesting premise though... maybe they should have written a book, desktop publishing and e-books mean that production values of home made and professionally published books is merely differentiated by professional editing.

Derek, I now realise I'm a Gervais-fan, and maybe also a Pilkington-fan. At any rate, Derek is good, very good, and I hope there's coming more.

Eh? Who is this supposed Jewish head of state of france?

Léon Blum, although he was Head of Government AND Socialist to boot. It didn't go well.

I don't know of any French President of the Republic who was Jewish, though.

Head of State /= Head of Government.

I did my IB History Guided Coursework on the Front Populaire his promise and his failure.

In those pre-bablefish and google translate days I had the original documents in french and had to get a friend of mine to translate. Due to his diplomacy brat days in boarding school in geneva with Sean Lennon and one of the younger Kims he spoke french. But he was the high school movie jock stereotype so he only cared about hockey. So I got him to translate the founding documents of the popular front by reading them in french and sentence by sentence translating them into norwegian by reading them onto audio cassettes. I resolved never to be so cruel to friends again after that.

Yeah.  But Blum was a Jewish PM when that was the most important role in the Republic.  Same for Mendes-France.  There's never been a Jewish President when that role was a figurehead (third and fourth Republics) or in the V Republic.

BTW, Blum was almost certainly an atheist. His writings about the jews or judaism always refer to the jews as a race rather than a religion. He considered himself French and his Jewishness was thrust upon him by his anti-semitic enemies.

Haven't seen that yet. But heard it's pretty good. I love Pilky lots more than Ricky though.

Red Cliff.  The abridged Western version.  Worth it.

Passport to Pimlico.  Brilliant.  Is this an Ealing Comedy? :mellow:

I've been put off by its abridgedness so far. Is there any way to get a subbed uncut version of it?
