Title: Russell Brand
Post by: gpw11 on Sunday, November 30, 2008, 02:14:00 AM
Is it just me or is this guy actually l negative funny?   If ever there was an argument for a bullet to the brain of pop culture obsessed teenagers,  it'd be the popularity of this weird looking mother fucker.

I just watched Forgetting Sarah Marshal the other day. And now that you have given him a name and confirmed that he is actually real, Im a little scared.

I recognize him from Forgetting Sarah Marshal and St. Trinian's. Not sure what all the fuss is about.

Oh thank god.  He's a typically unfunny Brittish comedian (to be honest, I can't think of a funny one), but he's also like the new Pauly Shore.  He recently hosted the MTV music awards, and he's been getting a shitload of press which is brought to my attention through a podcast I listen to while driving.  The people in the podcast just hate him, and I didn't think much of it untill they played some of his stuff (including a prank call which caused a  bit of controversy in England) backed up by reviews of his work (SMASHING! THE NEXT BIG THING!!).  Honestly some of the most unfunny shit I've heard in my life.  Like he has some kind of speech impediment and all he does is mix random words together with a slurping sound or something.

I liked him in Forgetting Sarah Marshall, I thought he was hilarious.

Stuff like this always happens.  Just a couple days ago I never heard of this guy nor recognized him from pictures.  Then I saw a preview for David Letterman last night, and he was one of the guests.
