Yeah, I don't think Russell Brand is funny at all....
I dunno, maybe it's that British humor that I can't appreciate, but he annoys me completely.

Re: Arthur
I've seen the original & just don't believe this remake will have the same charm. I expect it to be more annoying than anything.

Re: Arthur
I'm not a fan of Russell Brand either. I don't think it's "British humor" (I love Monty Python and Benny Hill). It's just him. Yes I saw the original with Dudley Moore and Liza Minnelli and I didn't fall in love with that one either. The best part of that for me were the scenes with Moore and John Gielgud.
I expect Helen Mirren will be the best thing about this version.
Arthur: Hobson?
Hobson: Yes.
Arthur: Do you know what I'm going to do?
Hobson: No, I don't.
Arthur: I'm going to take a bath.
Hobson: I'll alert the media.
Arthur: [rises] Do you want to run my bath for me?
Hobson: That's what I live for.
[Arthur exits]
Hobson: Perhaps you would like me to come in there and wash your dick for you, you little shit
I expect Helen Mirren will be the best thing about this version.

Re: Arthur
IA that RB aint funny whatsoever. The only movie he was in that i liked was Forgetting Sarah Marshall and that had less to do with him and more to do with the other cast & characters.
I wonder whos gonna cover "Arthurs Theme".

Re: Arthur
I think I'll just pass this one by. Russell Brand just annoys the crap out of me for some reason, so I can't imagine paying to see a movie of his. I would hope that Helen Mirren is pretty good in the movie.

Re: Arthur
I'm sure Helen Mirren is wonderful as always & Russell Brand has become slightly more tolerable since he appears to have discovered soap & water. But I'm still gonna pass.

Re: Arthur
People will probably go see it because Russell Brand is Katy Perry's husband.
