"Oh you like that film do you? It’s sooooooo over rated."

Although a useful phrase for identifying wankers I still think it should be outlawed. There should only be one way allowed to disapprove of films, music, books artists etc and that’s to compare them unfavourably to an example that you think is better. So instead of…

“Inception was soooo overrated”

We have

“Inception was boring , but I found the emotional connection I made with Twilight overwhelming.”

Also anytime someone claims that the first record they ever bought was by the Clash / Sex Pistols rather then the Wombles / Goodies you’re legally obliged to punch them on the nose.

My first record? I’m a Nut by Leroy Pullins.

Rather THAN.

Other than that, I agree. (Although I'd rather chew my right arm off than watch Twilight.)

But Inception really did fail to live up to the hype surrounding it.
It's not a bad film, but it goes on too long and isn't as clever as everyone seems to think.

First records I parted with money for were albums by Chaka Demus & Pliers and Culture Beat, when I got my first CD player, thus invalidating my opinion on musicial taste.

My first record
was a godawful local commercial radio station's comparably godawful charity single. It remained the only single I'd ever bought for about 10 years, until "Can't Stop These Things" by China Drum came out. I bought that for the sake of the "Wuthering Heights" cover on the b-side.

My first album was "Now 12" on tape - and, by coincidence, "Bad Young Brother" by Derek B (side 4, track 4, IIRC) has been going around my head all morning...

EDIT: Track 3, it appears. Close, though!

I can't remember which one
but mine is one of the following:
WWF Superstars, Slam Jam
Arrested Development, Mr. Wendal
USURA, Open Your Mind
Chaka Demus and Pliers, Tease Me

All top hits.

Open Your Mind
is a classic. As is Mr Wendal. Good choices (but we all know the WWF one was your first).

My first record was not music
It was the Not The Nine O'Clock News LP

I did have quite a cool auntie who bought me School's Out For Summer by Alice Cooper and Rebel Rebel by Bowie, but at the time I didn't have a record player. I ended up using them as frisbees, because I didn't have one of those either.

I thought Inception was pants
Although the premise was promising, the script was really, really bad in parts with some obvious inconsistencies and unnecessary padding.

Parts of it actually made me laugh out loud in the cinema.

Whenever a critic suggests "The best film since The Matrix", it actually means is "it borrows a lot from The Matrix but is quite a bit more shit". That's a lesson it took me a while to learn.
