How the fuck do people watch three hours of that shit? Off the top of my head I can only think of two films in the three hour range that justified their length... Schindler's List and Das Boot, and this clown is neither Stephen Spielberg nor Wolfgang Peterson.

Simples - it’s because they’re so dedicated to the noble cause of evading their debts bringing honour back to our legal system!

[Siegfried Shrink]

Does clicking on it and sampling a minute or two here and there count as a 'view'?

I cannot imagine anyone sat through it. I can only imagine for about 3 or 4 minutes that I am watching this man on fire and I am refraining from pissing on him to douse the flames.

You know from the start that it will be a load of complete tosh that is like sandpaper applied directly to the brain, but maybe someone will be willing to make their bones by checking it for any substantive information, like where to send the drone strike.

They've also managed to raise some cold hard cash from the marks. £1480 which aint bad given the usual FMOTL fund raisers.

This has apprently been spent on sorting the website and organising some sort of bullshit peddling woo woo tour.


If they have spent it on their new website, they should be asking for their money back:

Just looking that bit up and I hear talk of fringed flags meaning it is an admiralty court. Does the man not know that is something only found in US courts, UK ones have a Crown Crest if anything.

I suspect he is quite incapable of filtering out US related stuff that does not even in freemanland, apply in the UK>

It makes you wonder which courts if any he's been in if any and if he has been in them did he have his eyes closed at the time. Flags in a UK court? REALLY?

No flags in Canadian courts either. It's an American thing.

But they do all have red coated, jodhpur wearing and properly be-hatted Mounties standing guard don't they?

I hate to destroy your child-like innocence in our rumoured resplendent court garb but sheriffs on duty in British Columbia courts wear short sleeved tan shirts and black pants. No hats or jodhpurs. No horses in the courtrooms either and they don't celebrate the end of a trial with a musical ride. Pageantry is dead.

You might have typed "I hate to destroy your child-like innocence in our rumoured resplendent court garb but sheriffs on duty in British Columbia courts wear short sleeved tan shirts and black pants.

[Burnaby49]

Yes... Yes they do!

[wserra]

Off the top of my head I can only think of two films in the three hour range that justified their length... Schindler's List and Das Boot

Godfather II. Judgment at Nuremberg. Dr. Zhivago. Malcolm X. The Deer Hunter. Ran. Seven Samurai.

[longdog]

Yes... Yes they do!

Thanks

Godfather II. Judgment at Nuremberg. Dr. Zhivago. Malcolm X. The Deer Hunter. Ran. Seven Samurai.

Not seen, not seen, not seen, didn't rate it, very good but too long, not seen and a very good point respectively.

Both Kubrick films, if you like his films.

Empire by Andy Warhol. Eight hours of riveting excitement;

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Empire_(1964_film)

Of couse all great art brings detractors;

The film premiered on Saturday, March 6th, 1965 at the City Hall Cinema, 170 Nassau Street, in Manhattan,[12] the site of Mekas's Film-Makers' Cinematheque at the time. Reporting on the premiere in his Village Voice, column, Mekas did not state how many people were in the 576-seat theater,[13] but claimed that after the film had been running for ten minutes, 30 or 40 people surrounded him and another staff member demanding their money back, "threatening to solve the question of the new vision and the new cinema by breaking chairs on our heads.".[14]

But, if you really want to try films longer (much, much longer) than three hours, give these babies a shot;

We’re also forgetting the award winning ‘Great British Mortgage Swindle’ by M O’Bernica & others .

[Hercule Parrot]

Expert in FA manages a mammoth 3 hour live chat last night, all recorded. He seems a bit defensive , but rambles on for bloody ages.
The intelligence of his guests is clearly dubious, and it features our old friend Helen.

Did she mention the outcome of her own case, perhaps? The court application to steal her neighbour's house?

I’m afraid I only got 15 minutes in, which I regard as a Herculean effort.

The first bit is Steve now charging to create a prom note for you. Apparently you need to be very careful with the wording, so a speech justifying his fee ensued. Then I glazed over and realised i’ll Never get that time back.

I’ll try and flick through it and find Helens but tommorow. I’m pretty sure we know the outcome but it’ll be good to see how they dress it up as a win.

[John Uskglass]

This effort is a more manageable length. The 'Expert' explains how to address the judge.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TkgCM7gQkAw

Surely he must know that what he's saying is not just nonsense, but dangerous nonsense. Anyone foolish enough to try deploying this strategy is heading for a fall, whatever the merits of their case. Either he's never actually tried it, or he's tried it and come a cropper. Either way, the level of dishonesty required to encourage others to try it is astonishing.

I ended up wondering whether the 'Expert' is actually a very cruel hoaxer, who, once the camera is off, strokes his cat while cackling wildly at the thought of how he might have managed to sucker the gullible into making fools of themselves at best, or losing money and possibly liberty at worst.

Darn, I had a vision of every court session ending with a contingent of RCMP officers singing "The Lumberjack Song".

Cos you can learn more from a 3 hour Youtube video than 4 years of full-time study to become a lawyer

[Burnaby49]

Your comment;

just shows your deplorable ignorance of Canadian court procedures. Court hearings (at least in British Columbia which is still actually policed by the RCMP) end with the playing of an installment of the further adventures of Sgt. Preston.

I have to correct a prior comment. I must have been incorrect when I said that Mounties don't wear their red jackets and striped pants on duty. The publishers of children's books wouldn't lie to the kiddies.
