    They've put on the wrong movie, Rocky was supposed to start at 9 but they have accidently put some other crap movie on. Someone ring them up and tell them to change it.

    They've had to resort to these tactics to get viewers?

    The transporter is not crap.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,556 ✭✭✭MizzLolly


    Your username got something to do with Pete Doherty, Shamblertine?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,070 ✭✭✭✭My name is URL

    If it really is The Transporter then that's fine.

    Are you not able to ring them up yourself :rolleyes:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,287 ✭✭✭davyjose


    I have the Rocky Boxset - all six Movies. In your face Slambertine.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 122 ✭✭aoife161


    is it bad that I had to check IMDB just to make sure jason statham isn't in Rocky Balboa.....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 86,729 ✭✭✭✭Overheal


    The Transporter was better than Balboa, lets be fair.

    Crank would have been best though.

    Ah for feck sake. Things must be getting really tight in RTE....

    You're right. Crap implies it has some kind of substance to it - a reason for existing. It's sub-crap.

    Its a disgrace, they advertised it so heavily with all this trap about "Irish television premiere" then show this boring crap :mad: I hope they get sued or at least heavily fined.

    I think a phone would suffice.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 28,128 ✭✭✭✭Mossy Monk


    Your phone must be broken.

    Quick, everybody - except Shamblertine - over to my place for a Rocky-fest.

    Shamblertine, "The Bus that Couldn't Slow Down" is starting on RTE 1. I guess that'll have to do you.

    Fans of curb your enthusiasm will know what I meant by that. But no I don't wanna call them myself, I don't like complaining, I don't like to cause any bother or anything so I just accept things as they are. But I'm sure some people here wouldn't mind complaining for me.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,534 ✭✭✭SV


    I'm going with everyone else here really..

    The Transporter is a far far better film than Rocky Balboa


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,431 ✭✭✭✭Saibh


    The Transporter rocks!

    Come on! Jason whatever his name doing kong fu moves? That might impress me if I was 7. I'd rather see a 60 year old man pump himself full of steriods and pretend to be a boxer.

    I turned on TV3 after seeing this thread. I've forgotten how ads can kill a movie.

    FWIW, I've access to all 3 movies mentioned here, and more - I'm going with "The Bus That Couldn't Slow Down."

    But then I have to pay for it, and I hate paying for things!

    My gripe is they advertised a move (quite heavily) then didn't show it. They have to be fined for this. Whats the tv regulators email address?

    We will have to charge you for that sort of information - since you won't pay to hire a movie, can't see you paying us for an email address....


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,287 ✭✭✭davyjose


    Pop quiz hotshot ... Dennis Hopper really is a bad actor. I mean, in a film which includes Keanu Reeves, and yet Keanu Reeves is not the worst actor in it, well ... you really have to question that.

    I know I've put a brave face on, but this has really fcuking upset me. Ruined my night. I had got the takeaway in, coke and beer in the fridge, turned off the phone, made myself comfy on the sofa, turn it to the right channel, them BAM some crappy B movie is stuck on instead.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,250 ✭✭✭✭Iwasfrozen

    My fault they we ran out of space on the network share so I deleted all the crap, starting with Rocky.

    complaining to tv3 would be pointless anyway, all I'd get back is "we appreciate your feedback.......looking into matter........blah blah wah." I'll be issuing a formal complaint to the tv regulator (if we have one, which we probably don't)
