Brits in American life

[Slapper]

For the life of me, I do not understand as to why there are SO. MANY. FUCKING. BRITS. in all-things-Americana. TV, movies, music, comedy: They're everywhere, like Mexicans.

Who the fuck is hiring these assholes that can't find an American to do the job?

It's as though there's a war against the American male. A subliminal war.

[Pete Nice]

Great actors come to the States from all over the world, but lately those actors do seem to be coming more and more from England.  Keep in mind that acting, drama, and the arts are much more prevalent in UK schools than they are in America.  This, coupled with two differing cultures has created an array of extremely talented British actors/actresses.  I don't mind this at all.

Aren't British men a bit too gay for American taste?

[Henda]

Aren't British men a bit too gay for American taste?

That opinion is due to British men being represented by fags like Hugh grant and the like, the typical northern man who actually grafts for a living makes your average fat lazy Workshy American bloke look like a fucking neutered pussy

Fame in America compared to fame in the UK is totally different financially.  The Brits come here for the money and exposure.

I have to problem with anyone coming here legally to make a living.

My BEEF is with the apparent absence of Americans that could fill those roles. We are made to believe that there are no qualified Americans to do the jobs these Brits are taking, but we all know the laws of probability, not gossip, make that an intensely absurd comment.

The American male is under cultural attack and its roles are now being filled by half-faggs from Australia or Britain like Craig, Jackman, et cetera.

[Simple Simon]

Singlehandedly ruined the mission impossible franchise.

he is a stereotyped metro cuck

[Slapper]

How about this guy? He isn't even a Brit but... who here can honestly tell me that there aren't any talented Americans capable of doing his job?



Why isn't ANYONE saying something about the apparent evil intent in signing this guy to a multi-year contract so that someone's cultural agenda is preserved?

I can give you five or six local comedians with way more comedic chops that this moron.

I guess they get hired because they seem exotic but are still white and speak the language. I don't know that mulatto dude.

The silver lining is that they're a day late and a dollar short. Hollywood's best days are long gone. No one except fat women cares about useless Hollywood celebrities.

This thing is what passes for a "star" these days:

[ratherbebig]

how about less americans?

the most interesting actors, movies, artists, musicians, athletes etc are non americans

Well-thought out, unbiased opinion right here folks.

Dude, it's everywhere!

Just saw the 35,000th commercial in which an overly authoritative (PMSing) wife treats her husband like a little kid. Followed by another commercial about some guy on a horse inviting women to look at him and then look at her husband...

It's everywhere.

The pussification of American media outlets is really getting to me.

Whoever he is, he looks like a Telletubbie.

[HonestBob]

The Brits have the best drama schools so they punch above their weight.

It is also incredibly easy to get the highest quality American pussy if you have the right British accent.

[ratherbebig]

Scots and northern England are practically the same just the accent gets thicker the more North you travel, Id put them even with lads from northern England.

The ghastly Amy Schumer. She said she was gonna move if Trump was elected. Then, after the election, said she lied and said she only was kidding.

[BB]

It has to do with the way we've been developing acting and comedic talent in the States the last few decades. Gone is the American (many times character) actor who was forced to develop well rounded acting talent through numerous bit parts in movies, tv shows, and theater, and classes. If you look at the best American actors both back then, and now, that is how they were brought up. Now they just seem to grab some pretty kid, plop him in front of the screen for some very shruggable film, and there  is not a huge eye toward the long haul.

Meanwhile, the Brits, and foreign actors are aged and well trained by the time the get here. They are coming up in they way Americans used to.

The truth is Amy Schumer is too fat to move.

Exactly.  I'm sure Trump will straighten this all out.
