My guess you've had the internet for a while yeah, so you've heard of imdb ?

 

Put In The Loop in the film search, click Release Dates. But no doubt you're gonna be too lazy to do that so here we are - USA - 17 July 2009

when / where can i see this? (in the US lol)

 

cool, i really was going to make a thread about this today but never got around to it... looks set to be really good. i love everything armando ianucci does, especially time trumpet and in the thick of it (the latter which is in the same vein as this film should be).

I alternate between laughter and disgust.

That's gotta be what the author was hoping for...so yeah, a bit direct for its humor, but still made me laugh.

I saw this last week, thought it was excellent.

 

Steve Coogan has a small role which was a bit..er...Steve Coogany...maybe would have been better to choose someone a little less well known.

 

But overall it was great, I particularly liked the scene with James Gandolfini in the kids bedroom trying to work out troop numbers (I won't spoil it for people that haven't seen it)

It's nothing really major enough to warrant spoiler tags...but at the same time it might dull the impact of the joke slightly...i'll just shut up....

so iannucci was there last night!! very unexpected. i was a bit star struck. couldnt put together my thoughts enough to ask a coherent question, although i thought of lots whilst trying to sleep.

 

overall the film was great. really really funny. in a different way to the series. it really went for the laughs. my concern is that the show is now about malcolm tucker. i can see why the movie has so much of him in it - hes very funny but I don't remember him being so important in the show. i liked that you'd have the bungling MP and then malcolm would come in and shout and then go away. the laughs werent all his swearing. there was lots of other funny parts of the movie too, i just don't want the show to become a one man show.

 

did ollie change his name to toby but remain otherwise unchanged? i wasnt sure enough to ask why his name changed. he mentioned he recast some actors but toby was ollie with a new name..

 

the american actors had their moments but definitely didnt work as well as the uk actors. maybe just different not worse.

 

i would recommend this to everyone. really good.

 

he mentioned the slapstick movie that he is planning again (that he mentioned on film2009) and anythign he touches is gold so looking forward to that.

He was essentially playing Ollie yes, but he was a new character altogether. You realised that when he is first introduced to Tucker.

 

Great film. Understand what you mean about it being more Malcom orientated, but hopefully the new 8 part show will return it to normal.

 

Incidentally I still haven't watched the first 6 episodes since Langham got convicted.

mentioning the office in comparison to the thick of it is stupid. which is to be expected of you i suppose.

how odd. that really confuses things for the whole thick of it world. they did tht so he could be introduced again or so he could be new/naive or what do you think?

you mean watched them again or since?

 

i'm going to rewatch them all. thy haven't found a mp as good since. simon forester was kinda crap
