Sometihng about Union jack.....

Not at tha time. Up until around the 30's it was just called the Union Jack.

People in Dublin are called 'Jackeens' because it was the first city to fly the Union Flag/Jack whatever. One thing is for certain, in Ireland, in the counrtyside in the 1920s it was definitely called a Union Jack.

Thats where im coming from on thsi issue, i dont know much about what countryside dwelers in ireland called the Union Flag, but it isnt meant to be called the Jack on land.

 

[IrishZebra]

whoops,

so it's called a Union Jack on a boat but everyone else including the politicans called it Jack intsead of flag in the early 20th century. I see no issue here.

I think me calling then The Sasanach Menace and Black and Tans while wearing a tricolour and pissing on your flag would cause more of a Faux Pas. At least it did in Surrey.

Avatar was one hell of a visual treat, but didn't like the storyline at some points

back on topic - Crank - What a pile of shit, terrible acting, terrible premise, terrible effects, nothing redeaming.

Revolver wasnt as bad as everyone was making out, guy was being to complicated and the critics who turned up expecting a snatch/lock stock clone werent impressed.

Exactly.
I really enjoyed that movie, even though it all got a bit much near the end. I'm gonna have to rewatch that one quite soon though, because I seem to have forgotten pretty much everything about it.

Damn, I gotta check out that flick. Andre three stacks is in the cast too..

 

[Ahmed]

, how can I make it up to you?

it's ok, I forgot what I was mad about

Lock, Stock ; Snatch ; Revolver ; Swept Away => I'd say that's a total of 4 movies, not 2

oh Revolver's was his too? that was pretty good too...Swept Away doesn't count, the Kabbala bitch made him do it

That line was written by a moron, unless the wrapped himself around that flag when it was on a boat. A flag is called a 'Jack' on a boat but when a 'Jack' is on land it is called a flag.

The British flag is, and has long been, often colloquially referred to as the "Union Jack". This is technically incorrect, but a surprisingly small number of oppressed, semi-literate peasants are pedantic in relation to flag terminology. The writer displayed an ear for the vocabulary of characters in a well-documented historical era. That doesn't make him a moron.

Óró, sé do bheatha abhaile,
B'fhearr liom tú ná céad bó bhainne,
Óró, sé do bheatha abhaile
Anois ar theacht an tsamhraidh

 

[Buck Fuddy]

People are talking about Madonna and Dick Tracy is not being mentioned? Blasphemy!


Swept Away was out of this world though. Possible cure for insomnia. Too bad you'd fall asleep angry & annoyed.

Oh-ro You're welcome home,
I'd rather you to a hundred milking cows,
Oh-ro You're welcome home...
Now that summer's coming!
