...but make it informal, full of cheeky Cockney rhyming-slang and other various accents from this stupid land. I'd see it. In fact, I'd see it twice. But not three times - that'd be excessive. Oh, and y'know it's the Queen's jubilee today? They're trying to organize a street party or something equally ridiculous on my road - it's like we've time-warped back to 1945 or something. I've told them there's no way I'm getting involved, although I might just stand in my front yard burning Union Jacks and playing Sex Pistols to join in with the 'community spirit'. Not that I particularly dislike the monarchy, but I don't like my grumpy neighbours.
: : Who do you think should help Lucas write the screenplay for Star Wars Episode 3? and Why?
: Kevin Smith. Not only could he write some much-needed enjoyable and clever dialogue, but he's a fan, knows the details of the series and could maintain the feeling that *Bill Murray lounge singer* Staaaar Waaaars should have.
: If he wasn't dead, Douglas Adams. OF COURSE.
: It would be fun to see Hollywood Brian Lynch's version, just because it would be a challenge for him to write the third when he hated the first two. SHA-LANGE!
: Oh, I don't know. Any bum off the street could write better dialogue. One easy fix would just be to stop using slightly formal British dialect, whoever writes it. I CANNOT!
