Rant of the day

I had to take 2 there - I just saw the words doggie , wife - I re-read it of course ..

 

As mentioned in the last film you watched thread, watched the Joker yesterday and WTF is the Garry Glitter track all about? I can’t believe that anyone can justify glamourising a convicted paedophile by including his fucking music in a modern sodding film, what sort of a stupid cocksucker thinks that’s OK
Totally ruined the film for me and given me the major hump

 

Whilst I agree with your sentiments, the trouble is if your going to restrict your movie viewing based on convicted sex offenders you've probably got a choice of about 2 to watch

 

The problem with this particular film was that the track appears to have been selected because of the performers past exploits and convictions!

Apart from Mr Glitter the Glitter band was an entity of their own having chart success and to be honest the track in the film was more of their talent than Mr Glitter singing so that is the way I look at it, but you are right in your sentiments for the man.

 

Whilst your probably right the Glitter band has more input into the track, it’s still Garry Glitter that gets the credit in the film (albeit no royalty)

 

I understand the Gary Glitter track putting anyone off supporting a film. What i cant abide is people still playing and profiting from the other pop paedo Michael Jackson.

 

Oh cmon ! Cmon !

 

I can’t believe you said that

Don't put your daughter on the stage Mr's Robinson,

Do you think these two twats worked in cahoots together,

 

Undoubtedly, and a good job Anita Dobson was about 20 years too old then

 

I always thought JS was a creep.........

Yeah. I always thought he was a wrong 'un. Just couldn't figure it out.

 

I'm sure it was common knowledge way back, as I'm sure he was referred to as a "kiddie fiddler" in the 80's and maybe the 70's, but perhaps the extent and severity of his depravity was not known?

 

I had always thought Saville Row was where suits were bespoked but now realize it was an argument about whether JS was a paedo

 

People who smoke trying to lecture me about not wearing a mask.
