Attack The Block Should Be Called Aliens Vs. Thugs

[Actual]

Wow. British kids sound really annoying.

Yeah, what the other's have already said. The kids in this video have what is known as the chav accent. It's a fake accent that doesn't really exist anywhere in the country and is not connected to any cultural group, it's just put on to sound hard, innit brah.

Anyone who sounds like that needs a slap.

The film looks shit and their trying to market it by loose association to famous people. "From the producers of Scott Pilgrim!" soo someone who put money into SP also put money into this, well I'm sold! "Starring Nick frost in a cameo role" OMG he's great him being in this for 5 minutes will totally make it excellent.

Just so it's clear, I think this shit needs to be where it belongs, in a toilet, and maybe on fire.

Britain = England, Scotland and Wales.

Are you saying they have all the Scottish, Welsh and English accents?

Well, from my perspective, yeah. They sound similar. I can't necessarily point out the differences because I don't know much about European accents.

 

[K_Dub]

Wow. British kids Chavs sound really annoying.

Helped you out there.

OT: The chavs really annoy me but the film does look good regardless... So I may end up watching it.

Haha! Thanks for the quick fix!

The only person who called them thugs was vansau in the article.

Your point being? I wasn't questioning the term, it fits the people. They're just pathetic in comparison to their American counterparts and I was wondering if there's something more evenly comparable over there.

Dayum... you have next to no knowledge of European accents.

English =/= Welsh =/= Scottish =/= Irish.

To Youtube with you!

 

[vansau]

The aliens had to land in England so that people wouldn't have guns to fight them

So they're gonna fight them off with British cooking?

Nope. You're right. And to Youtube I shall go, to wallow in my egotism and self-importance!

 

[dalek sec]

I think the only way I would ever see this movie is if the aliens killed every last one of those little chav bastards in the most bloody ways too otherwise no sale for me. D:

God I hate little gits and this is only the trailer for the movie.

American counterparts? They're 16-year-olds on a council estate xD Not actual gang members. And you were acting as if it was our "best offering" to the Americans (can't believe I'm actually having this debate) - I was simply pointing out that it was only the OP who had even coined the term "thugs".

From the trailer, looks like that bunch of unarmed 16-year-olds is fairing better than the American military does during alien invasions

[sub]And what is it with you people and our cooking?! xD[/sub]

Like I said, first screening was yesterday, seems to have gotten a very positive reception from the bits from critics that have gotten through the embargo.

OHHHHH! Nice one!

Worse, we're going to fight them off with...

Scones!

DUN DUN DUN!

OT:

Ugh, chavs. Far from terrifying. Film looks like I wouldn't be able to watch it. I can't stand a chav accent.

Also, terrifying teens? Really? Most of us are weedy and those chavs weren't an exception.

 

[Kellerb]

Chavs vs Aliens. im not sure if i should be high fiving my dog or crying into some ice cream.

 

[robotam]

Could actually be alright.
Hopefully alot of chavs get ripped up.

 

[Laurie Barnes]

I am making a prediction right now! This movie is a satirical analysis of gang culture. Twenty bucks down right now that the only reason more of the aliens show up is because the kids killed that first one.

 

[SelectivelyEvil13]

The first thing that came to mind my mind was a game (or possibly a movie I suppose) having to do with tetris-like blocks attacking major U.S. cities...

I bet it's an action-comedy and will share some of the dark humor of Shaun of the Dead. Seriously, this could be amazing: Chavs. As. Alien Food.

Gangster wannabes having their spleens introduced to a voracious alien's Mr. Tummy sounds like a fun ride.

This actually looks promising, in that "this is so ridiculous but I can't look away" kind of theme. I'm interested in seeing where this goes.

Anything with chavs in a movie can never and i repeat never ever be promising.

But what if they get eaten? I'm a U.S. of A resident myself, so I've never actually met a chav, but I figure it's like Guidos. I would pay good money to see them get eaten by aliens.

Trust me chavs are not worth your time watching or even wasting your money to watch because they are stupid and have no ounce of logic within their tiny pea shaped brains what so ever.

 

[googleback]

Chavs are a group of people who think they're hard but aren't. All talk. The term "paper gangsters" doesn't even come close, most of them are malnourished and skinny so they couldn't hurt you unless they have weapons, which they tend to nowadays, but thats only the ones who think they're GANGSTA'S! the rest are just annoyances.

Anyway, This looks kind of funny, I saw a clip on Film 2011 Wednesday and I laughed a few times. I'll check it out if its got good reviews.

And I love how Americans are having a go with "our scum is better than ur scum!" seriously guys? seriously?
