Top Ten Dumb Guy Complaints About "The Lord of the Rings"

10. "I expected something, you know, more Hobbity"

9. "'Middle Earth' scenes clearly shot on regular Earth"

8. "It was real long and not a cartoon"

7. "Accidentally put butter on my Twizzlers"

6. "My name is Stu -- how come there aren't any Hobbits named Stu?"

5. "Where the hell is Chewbacca?"

4. "If they're going to have magic, why not bring back the rapping kangaroo?"

3. "Couldn't focus on movie -- kept thinking about how I blew all my money on the Giants"

1. "I haven't seen it yet -- I'm too busy governing California"

I think there must be something about American humour that er, is just not particularly funny. :o (or is it just David Letterman?)

[CWLakers34]

I think it's just David Letterman. I think his show is one of the best but as you can probably tell he seems to be running out of material lately.

[PsYkOoOoO]

yea..i tried to laugh..i really did

[flukeman]

I thought they were funny :)

It's just that Letterman's show has a kind of humor all its own - come on, "Will it Float?" and "Is This Anything?" are just so stupid they're funny. I love that show.

Although I agree, adt100 - give me British humor anyday!!! Fawlty Towers, Monty Python, Are You Being Served?, Ab Fab, Vicar of Dibley, Blackadder - some of the best!

[Dogbert0228]

The list is funny, but the title of the list is stupid... I mean, come on Dave, find something a bit more original than "Dumb Guy Complaints"...

[Aztec]

Maybe it's time Dave hangs it up.

[dr_evil]

"Are you telling me a Swallow carried that Coconut all the way here?!"

[rzrbks]

Well, Letterman did try and do away wiith the Top Ten Lists several years ago :rolleyes: and the Network big-wigs wouldn't let him.

Are you suggesting coconuts migrate? :D

[Brock Landers]

No, no, no! But they could be carried! ;)

[flukeman]

"Yes, they could carry it on a line!"

"What, under the dorsal guiding feather?"

:) Holy Grail is great - in my post I actually meant the tv show Flying Circus - classic stuff.

I just think it's pretty hard to poke fun of something most people (well the intelligent ones ;) ) think is incredible.

[king_of_hetzer]

I hate American humor...except for maybe a few programs on Comedy Central.... ugh... I hate this nation.

[The Moose]

that isn't that funny. in fact, i didn't even laugh, or get near

I've only watched the TV show a few times, and I loved it. I would watch it more, but we toke the digital cable out of my room so now I don't get the BBC channel. :(

I love watching Letterman. The Dr Phil quotes were hilarious as hell. Or how about those George Bush jokes that aren't jokes segments. Funny stuff.

Some of those Top 10 Lists are pretty funny though.

FVD.
