Well his &quot;definition&quot; of sarcasm sucks.
Like I said.... He should probably stick to drama, cause this shit is clearly gonna fuck up the money count on his recent film, do to those who might have been offended by his so called humor. Was there even a punchline to that crap that was fallin out of his face?
I&#039;m more than sure that the majority of the main cast and producers of this film didn&#039;t find this shit all that funny; especially in front of all those cameras.

Just out of curiosity.... 
Did YOU personally enjoy his, 
&quot;I&#039;m a Nazi/Hate Jews &amp; Sympathize with Hitler&quot; joke? 

I mean were you just sitting there watching this clip, saying to yourself....
&quot;Man... this guy&#039;s awesomely hilarious! I can&#039;t believe Cannes banned him, for saying he&#039;s a Nazi and states that he hates Israelis.&quot;?

You think he should start making comedies?]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&gt;&gt;&#039;&#039;He said Israel is a pain in the ass.

Is this a lie?&#039;&#039;

No, it&#039;s completely true. Since the mid 1970&#039;s there has been votes for a resolution in the UN of the two state solution. It has always been the whole world on one side and the US and Israel on the other. Israeli crimes are condemned all over the world. They can only survive with their unacceptable breach of human rights and international law through American diplomatic, economic and military support. It&#039;s like the South African Foreign Minister said to the US in the 50&#039;s, when they understood they were becoming a pariah state in the world: We all know only one vote counts, and that&#039;s yours. 
And he was right, South-Africa managed to do what it did up until the US changed its policy in the late 80&#039;s, and short after apartheid collapsed.]]></description>

He didn&#039;t just say he understood Hitler he said he sympathizes with Hitler. Big difference.

You&#039;re right. If you say you understand Bin Laden. Great. But if you say you sympathize with him then it&#039;s a different story altogether.

Cannot believe why people can&#039;t understand that.

And whether is about Jews or not, can&#039;t you as an American be bothered knowing that he caused WW2 and therefore Americans died because of that as well? Even on a more basic level he exterminated over 6,000,000 HUMANS?]]></description>

Only if you state, at the &quot;end of your point&quot; that you are a Taliban, like LVT stated he was a Nazi; toward the end of his point. 

No matter if he was joking or not... one thing that&#039;s certain is that Lars fucked himself; and from now on, he should straight up stick to drama, and stay the fuck away from stand up.... cause he really sucks at it. Him getting kicked out of Cannes is pure evidence of that.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Seriously sounds like a bunch of pussy nerds on this blog that obviously don&#039;t understand the severity of his words, even if he is joking. When is it alright to joke about being a Nazi or sympathizing with a man that exterminated 6,000,000 people?

You&#039;ve been cooped up too long in middle america where all you have to worry about is when you&#039;re outta hot pockets, when&#039;s the next filmjunk podcast and speculate about what the new Batman is all about.

Hitler + Nazi&#039;s invade France. Killed many of its Jews. Killed many more people including Americans.

You&#039;re right. He is free to speak his mind just as much as the festival is free to ban him.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I don&#039;t have a problem with him expressing views.  I started the chat by commenting what a wild example of self destructive behavior it was. (READ THE FIRST POST) good theatre, yo.   I actually like his films and do think he is cerebral.  but he also can be an asshole that makes good films, like say - Mel Gibson.  maybe his wild views produce the films.  whatever, I&#039;m fine with that.  

 what I think is laughable is how so many people here get bent-out-of-shape when I pose the possibility he was sincere.  really?  is this guy your uncle?  I can understand if people feel the need to lash out at the PC world that suffocates them, but don&#039;t use that as a mask for logical thought.  like I said a few posts ago - the video is at best 50 /50 either way.  

in my final comment here, I was joking about everything I have said previous, therefore, by Fatbologna&#039;s own rules, that insulates me from any criticism or discussion of what I said.  we will now call it the LvT Rule - follow anything with &quot;I&#039;m joking&quot; and you are free and clear.

Good Day!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Rus, that chick Dunst you throw out as an argument is after all just that: a chick, chicks do not get sarcasm most of the time, so just because she didn&#039;t think it was a joke it doesn&#039;t mean it was not a joke. In fact that makes it even more funny for the rest of us who get it because we can laugh with her reaction as well.

Anyway let&#039;s assume that he was not joking although I am quite sure he was. Let&#039;s assume that he was stating an opinion.

What is wrong with expressing an opinion?

&quot;I Understand Hitler. I don&#039;t think he was a good guy but I understand why he did what he did.&quot;
Why is that offensive? I understand why bin laden attacked the Us. Does that make me a Taliban?

He said Israel is a pain in the ass.

Is this a lie?

..  &quot;punishing&quot; a guy like LVT for expressing just an opinion doesn&#039;t make you any better than a Nazi in my books. But hey, you know what they say.. jews are the new Nazis, right?
