My children have chosen the film from Netflix for tonight. I'll have a glass of beer, a few Pringles and chuckles with the rubber-faced funnyman Atkinson.

Who wants to join me?1

Too late I am taking my pants off already for the long walk to your door.

OK, but we've already eaten the Pringles.

The Mr. Bean films make Bean a bit too cuddly and innocent for my tastes. He's much more of a nasty, vindictive prick in the TV series.

Genuinely the only film I have walked out of.

Though I voluntarily walked in, so I can't really complain.

Is that the one Natalie Imbruglia won an Oscar for?

My kids were wailing with laughter.

I was 13 when I first saw this movie and I remember distinctly and vividly thinking it was miles better than Kevin & Perry Go Large, a similar "british comedy stalwarts fuck off overseas but only enough that you barely need a visa" movie I'd seen the weekend before. It was only when I was about 17, and staring into a puddle of rainwater intermingled with my own blood on a storm-swept industrial estate after I'd just had the kettle hurled at my head by a beloved family member that I realized that even this harrowing experience was fucking miles better than Kevin & Perry Go Large.

Was the puddle Rodney the Plonker?

Whistler's mother Bean is the pinnacle

It was actually Green Green Grass era Boycie. His braying laughter intermixed with the slow drone of paper-mills and the howl of Sussex winds only encouraged the suicide plot I so desired to enact.

Mind the bit where Mr Bean is responsible for someone committing suicide on-screen, which actually happens.

Like this film a lot esp for the very charming <googles> Emma de Caunes. I would like her to be happy.

Yes, I was a bit panicked at that point, but they just laughed at the man jumping into the river.

And yet when friend of the forum Gervais pens a similar scene, there is nothing but mealy-mouthed condemnation from the CaB intelligentsia.

It seems that once again, there is one set of rules for Ricky, and quite another for rubber-faced funnyman Atkinson.

I just realised the band is a reference to Mr Hulot's Holiday, right? 😬
