Did anybody see this last night? The program featured various tape recordings of Mark Chapman talking about his life and why he felt compelled to shoot Lennon. V interesting. (British TV BTW) |

Hey guy, just cool it with these negative and homophobic comments. You might say that you're joking or perhaps being "ironic", but words can still hurt, you know. |

I'm not really a fan, but anything about mental people is always interesting. |

Umm, whats the problem here?? Nice Avatar swears--I love it! |
||||||||

Sigh, it just seems to me I try and start a serious topic, and people make all these childish homophobic comments, or start posting links to internet humour soundfiles. It makes me so fucking angry I have to make lots of really pithy, smartarse posts about it. |

Sometimes it makes me weep that I'm such a sensitive, intelligent soul, and I'm forced to read the posts of less worthy board members. It makes me want push their face through a window, or make some really crap, long winded analogy about how stupid they are or how much I hate them. |

good post. i like Lennon . but how can you say something like "John Lennon is shit" no one is shit per se, especially not John Lennon. i mean, come on here... let's be resonable. statements like that only reveal ignorance without intelligence. any kind of good argument i'd be open to... really. i value all your comments, but on the other hand, i can resent some as well. swears- i dont think so. |

Getting back on topic... I saw the program last night. It was very interesting. Knowing nothing of Mark Chapman before hand I expected him to be a crazy raging lunatic, wheras he came across as very intelligent and together. He was clearly disturbed somehow, but he seemed very much aware of himself and what he did. I was very interested in his obsession with Catcher in the Rye. His disillusionment with the 'phonies' of the adult world wasn't really that foreign to me, it seems understandable. He was clearly an oversensitive person to whom these things seemed more important than anything. Although all of the talk about having two people inside him dragging him different ways is kind of typical of mental illness, the rest seemed not. It was a good doc. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

It seemed more like he was almost sane, and used mental illness as an excuse to kill Lennon. I remember reading Catcher in the Rye when I was fourteen, and wondering how such an innocent book could motivate someone to murder. In the documentary, they explained it was the naivety of the book that led Chapman to believe the adult world (and Lennon) in particular was corrupt, and deserving of his vengance. Funnily enough there was a documentary on about Matthew Barney on Wednesday night. He seemed very reluctant to explain his work, did you see it? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Oooh no I missed it! That's a shame. Though I can imagine he is a bit odd about his work. I've listened to his commentary on the Order DVD a couple of times and he comes across rather introverted, monotone kind of artist... dammit I wish I'd seen that one. What channel was it on? |

if youre a member of uknova you can download it i seem to be saying that on a daily basis now, just goes to show how great uknova is and how far behind the bbc & itv are with technology and the wants and needs of the public. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
uknova is incredibly excellent. I think it's the torrentsite I download the most from. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I hadn't thought of that. Is it an invite only ghey site? I'll look. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Oh I've got it. Thanks :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
no, but they have a max. user policy, which in practice means you have to be lucky when you hit "register". just try a couple of times a day, it shouldn't take too long (non-active users are thrown out regularly). |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
It seems to have worked. I'm in! |
||||||||
|
|

If you are looking for that specific show, it's called Art Safari. It's been on BBC 2 over the last couple of years. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Thankyou sir. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
if youre a new user i might have to wait 24 hours from the date the torrent was posted. read the rules about ratios and you'll understand what i'm drivvelling on about. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i wish they had "on safari", i'd like to see that again |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
It doesn't look they have Art Safari :( |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Oh well. Here's about Ben Lewis, the guy who makes them. He's sort of like a younger version of Matthew Collins. |
||||||||
|

:offtopic: - I can't believe some people are STILL acting like shits in these topics when there's a perfectly adequate number of pointless topics for them on this board. part of the reason I tend not to come here anymore. :ontopic: - Didn't actually watch it in the end. Soz. :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Shocking, isn't it? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
So what made this guy snap then? (you may apply the answer to the :ontopic: or :offtopic: subject.) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
OH SNAP! Being a fat, geeky, mongo with no friends made him snap. He realised this, and instead of going to the gym or getting wasted with some buddies, he went to shoot Ringo, or whatever the hippy guy's name was. |

Is John Lennon a Jedi? I thought he was a Sith because he dabbled in the dark side. |
