Guest Steven Dedalus Posted September 5, 2007 Report Share Posted September 5, 2007 A stencil graffiti "artist" who's also a bit of a twat.You speak the truth, sir.Over-rated is too small a word (or possibly two words with a hyphen in the middle).

Stripey Posted September 6, 2007 Report Share Posted September 6, 2007 A "Guerilla artist" - Banksy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopediaSome of his stuff is really rather humorous, I love the naked man mural in Bristol....he's often feted as a genius straddling the bleeding edge of now. Why? Because his work looks dazzlingly clever to idiots. And apparently that'll do.Charlie Brooker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lepeep Posted September 11, 2007 Report Share Posted September 11, 2007 I thought it was fake as well. Just looks really odd and the perspective seems to be way off. yeah, the kerning, leading and 'm' width's were all to pot...fucking disgusting typography, if you ask me.

Teabags Posted September 12, 2007 Report Share Posted September 12, 2007 I thought asking someone like David Firth to make cartoons for your show....and when he does, refusing to show them, makes him a bit of a twat. What did he expect? It's David Firth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's David Firth.Uh, there was only one they (the production company, not brooker) didn't use, and probably because it would never have been allowed on air anyway due to the content.

Teabags Posted September 12, 2007 Report Share Posted September 12, 2007 I actually wouldn't know. The only reason I've even heard his name is because he asked David Firth to do cartoons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trippinoneastereggs Posted September 12, 2007 Report Share Posted September 12, 2007 Pretty stone-wall evidence there.'cuz my m8 sez so'well the fact that my mate worked with him and says so is a bit more solid than someone who has just read TVGoHome or his articles or seen Nathan Barley.I do like his work, but can also accept that he may not have the most pleasant of personalities.

I also don't think Charlie Brooker would mind too much if the majority of the British public thought him this way.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stripey Posted September 12, 2007 Report Share Posted September 12, 2007 Have a mate who worked with him at Endemol, said he's an obnoxious twat.I'd be an obnoxious twat to the people around me if I worked at endemol aswell.

The world needs more people like charlie brooker.You're an obnoxious twat anyway, surely?I am, of course, only jesting.Anyone who has seen Screen Wipe will know that Mr Brooker does everything he can to come accross as a hateful bastard, so that's ok with me. If he was this charming guy who loved everything and was really nice, I wouldn't read his work or have any respect for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
