This may have been on here before, but it's so funny (and well done) I wanted to share it:

Top 5 Awful Moments in U2's "Rattle and Hum"

Is that you, numbers? Looks a bit like you. I hope so. Maybe you can show us an animated picture of your nips.

As for the subject, I'm on my phone so it's not working but I can guess what's #1 and let me say for billionth time I couldn't care less that Edge plays an "unbluesy" solo.

Thought seconded.

 

[Galeongirl]

Thought thirded.

But this video is weird... guy in a hood shaded telling us what he thinks of R&H? yeah uhm, care?

Number 5 is first 2 seconds of the movie, the Helter Skelter intro. The guy doesn't like their cover, gee, how nice.

Number 4 is the interveiw part, what happened between recording JT and the new songs, and other non music part. He claims U2 don't care and dont' want to talk to the fans. Well dude, it's a documentary... not an interview. THen he bashes Larry for loving Elvis movies...

God this is horrible to watch.

Number 3 is that the shots are apparently worshipping U2. That Phil worships them and shite like that. That The RockNRoll stops the traffic thing has NOTHING to do with All Along the Watchtower and stuff.

Number 2 is Silver and Gold, Bono's speech, "this song was written in a hotel room in NYC...etc"
Guy is nicely shouting DONT CARE through it all. What a jerk.
And there we have it. Edge plays no Blues.

Number 1 is MLK. That U2 tried to associate too much with famous people, and that it's too self-important. And that it's wrong to put an image of MLK Behind Bono's face during the song.


What a bunch of crap. There's plenty of criticism that could be said about RnH, but this? What a joke!

Sorry Numbers, but this isn't gonna work.

Lol at the Discotheque mention at the end. Tho I wouldn't advise anyone watching this, it was a pain.

 

[cobl04]

I seriously think it's him.

 

[Vlad n U 2]

I seriously think it's him.

Definitely the first thing that entered my mind.

 

[Galeongirl]

That avatar looks pretty much like him. Or a twin brother. We'd have to do a nipple check to confirm.

 

[cobl04]

We wouldn't know. He kept teasing us but never did the full reveal.

Just so I don't get in strife, if it is you, I didn't mind your posts

 

[coolian2]

quick, someone call 867 5309 to ask!

 

[GirlsAloudFan]

I'm pretty positive it's him. Apologies for being a dick to you, numbers. No hard feelings.

 

[Sken]

I think the most awful thing about the Rattle and Hum movie was that not all of the album material was played. The stuff on the guys video is some of my favourite parts

Oh, and U2 was as big as the Beatles during that period, so they were definitely justified to play alongside and go on tour with BB King. Remember, they were the band of the 80's, time magazine cover and all that. Not many before and since can claim to have had that sort of impact/reception.

I am so bitterly depressed that I actually know that.

 

[The Sad Punk]

I liked the video. He was only just scratching the surface, too.

Come on, it is a very stupid movie.

 

[bono_212]

That guy was super obnoxious. Doesn't mean I like the movie, but I do enjoy watching it for laughs.

But yeah, guy was super obnoxious.


Welcome back, Numbers Man.

would you please let us play the man, not the ball? thanks.

 

[Niceman]

What a piece of shit. That was the worst thing I've ever seen on the internet.

I like Elvis Movies.
I even know how to pronounce the director's name....
And what's wrong with this kid that he didn't care about Apartheid?

 

[Jive Turkey]

Well there's 14 minutes of my life down the toilet. Thanks Panther

 

[Galeongirl]

I wonder if numbers is going to come back after that first post. Maybe we scared him off.

 

[corianderstem]

Gosh, why wouldn't he come back, after being greeted by mocking again right off the bat?

[Canadiens1131]

Dude, there's WAY more than five awkward moments in Rattle and Hum.

I don't think any man has ever earned himself a punch in the dick more than Bono did from 2:06-2:12.

:reads own lyrics as if they were Frost:

:gives facial expression that screams "HOLY FUCKING SHIT GUYS I'M GOOD AT THIS WRITING THING AREN'T I OH YES I AM":

 

[U2girl]

I like the fact that the writer of lyrics in the biggest band in the world is reading out lyrics for others to hear, and give their opinion.

 

[Saracene]

I couldn't name the top 5 awful moments in R&H because that movie was just too painful to watch in full. I might have missed some.

 

[Galeongirl]

There are plenty of bad moments in the movie, but the ones listed in that clip are nowhere near.

 

[LemonMelon]

Disagrees

I must be on the right track.

You completely ignored what it was about the situation that irritated me, but that's OK.

 

[cobl04]

Come on, it is a very stupid movie.

Oh you're right. I just don't care about Edge's non-blues solo.

None of the posters in this thread probably including the guy who made this video were even old enough to go see this when it first came out, so frankly I don't give a shit.

Back then it was amazing. I saw it like 5 times in the opening week. Couldn't get enough.

I was old enough. And yes, the movie was incredible.
