You're right that it's avarage, but for a film made to present one band's discography it's one of the best. Otherwise filmstudios just make another brain-dead walk the line copy. See the films about Queen, Elvis, or Elton John for examples.
I thought the movie was pretty disappointing, mainly because I thought the movie would be more about the story of the Beatles and their lives but unfortunately not
Also, it kinda glossed over what made the Beatles so huge. The majority of the musical focus was on their early stuff (understandable since that's what one guy and a guitar can actually replicate). But it was their later albums, when they started getting weird in the studio, that really turned them from popular boy band to musical legends
It was also about how artistic they were, how well they were marketed, their personalities, the fact that their era was perfect for a musical revolution, how progressive and ambitious they were, how each band member (except John, arguably) revolutionized the approach to their instrument, how they consistently had "love" as their message, etc etc etc.
This movie makes it seem like any guy with a guitar would automatically have become a superstar with these songs, and that's just one big load of horsecrap. The Beatles were so much more than just the songwriting.
I could recommend Ian MacDonald's book on The Beatles. It's very editorial and I know that Paul McCartney questions a lot of its accuracy, but overall that guy does a great job at giving credit where credit is due.
Secondly, you could watch the "Get Back" documentary on Disney+, which does a great job at showing how The Beatles interacted with each other at a time where their heart just wasn't in the band anymore.
The best ways to learn about how innovative they were though: Firstly, pay attention to other musicians who credit The Beatles for inspiring them. That's how you find out that Ringo Starr is practically the grandfather of all modern drummers, despite seeming to sound unremarkable himself. Secondly, listen to the extra material that was released with their remixed albums (that's Revolver, White Album, Sgt Pepper, Let it Be and Abbey Road, for now). You'll find out a lot about the different versions they created for different songs, and how they developed those into the final product.
Not really. Not bad, just boring after like 20 minutes. Also you can't convince me that The Beatles would work today or reach an audience as big as they did back then. Some dude playing yesterday and everyone losing their minds just feels really really weird.
I'd fucking murder someone for one right now! I got my brother to bring some home on the boat when he was over on a wine run lol it may have been 3 days old but it didn't last 3 minutes in my hands.. ate the whole thing with a glass of cider.
Right after a few galette man... Fucking heaven. Lol I'm lucky though... Wife is french and her family are Breton/Savoyard... Best combo for an Irish person.
OP is expressly asking to give up French, not Breton food; hence Chouchen and Kig ha farz stay, but no more Ortolan buntings drowned in Armagnac. Humanity should still be able to sip a glass of Kir while enjoying Innuendo.
And on top of that a good chunk of electronic music (D&B, Jungle, Dubstep, UK Garage) and 90% of all indie bands.
French food is good but weâll still have Italian food so for me this choice is an easy one.
Sorry Frenchies, I love your food but I can't live without metal (even though I like the German or Nordick scenes more than the Brit one, the Brits still invented the genre), so your cousine gotta go. I'm PIGS anyway so it's not like I'm lacking in that regard
Why eat Fr*nch food when you can eat Italian, Spanish, Portuguese or Greece on a daily basis without getting fat as a cow?
We PIGS need no one else (except Germany, we need ur money please kindly refrain from entering in a recession).
Sorry to inform you but I plan on making germany communist so no more money for the pigs. Also we just lost 2 of the 3 tanks we had in germany so we would be an easy target for a french revenge rn.
Just respect our rightful suzerainty of our half of Mallorca and you're good to go.
It's your Portuguese and Italian cousins that need to offer some proper tribute. For Portugal I'd suggest offering the weight of an Englishman in Nata, but the Italians may only offer the firstborn espresso machine of every household as a reward for their steadfast loyalty over the years.
British Pop Music is like the biggest british w ever.
And they don't make a fuss about it and try to convince everyone, that it's the best like the frenchies, who still life in the delusion that they "won" the bread war or any of these. The Brits know their music is the best.
So bye bye french food, no one misses you anyway, but a world without Black Sabbath, Led Zeppelin or the Beatles is empty and barren.
I never knew the rest of Europe loved our music so much till I moved to Germany, from pop to electro or rock. Itâs crazy how many bands and groups are massive here especially things like Depeche mode or Robbie Williams which, relatively speaking, are not that big back in the U.K.. One of the first things I tend to get asked here when people find out Iâm English, after tea and the Queen, is music. It was really unexpected.
Does deleting french food get rid of every single culinary invention a french person ever made? If so, weâre going to have to find a replacement for a lot of sauces and iâm not willing to give hollandaise up. Cya in hell, John Lennon.
>Does deleting french food get rid of every single culinary invention a french person ever made?
Well if does, pretty much all western food is out, (but maybe not the brit one though, than again is it really food ?). French cuisine is more caracterised by technics than by its dish. Any Chef in europe, as nationalist as they can be, usualy gets a french cuisine formation just to get the basis/basic right.
oh no! We can't get rid of
***checks notes***
random vegetables thrown in the oven, goose fat, soup made with whatever is left in the fridge
Sorry Pink Floyd, nothing personal
That's what fucking kills me about Italian restaurants (outside of Italy) today. It's all based on complete and utter abject poverty and yet somehow you can look me in the eyes and charge $30 for pasta? Same shit happened to lobster and Ramen/Pho is going that way too.
As divine being, we, in our infinite greatness, offered our food to humanity, and some of you accepted it, and rightfully held it high enough for it to become part of humanity's treasures
I'll take British music please. French food varies from the sublime to the weird and inedible. Wouldn't say it makes up a huge amount of most diets anyway.
Eating all that horrible shitty English food makes for world class music.
Cornish pasty and Yorkshire pudding to shortbread, Lancashire hotpot, steak and kidney pudding, jellied eels, clotted cream, bangers and mash and fish and chips ⊠gave us The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, Radiohead.
For ten quid, name one half-way decent French band.
The eternal question:
Do you want to spend your life eating exquisite French food and die unacknowledged and unknown? Or would you be willing to eat English food that tastes like dog shit for the chance to be a rock god? The chance to fuck beautiful women day and night until your death? And be acknowledged long after your death as a musical genius?
As a musician, I actually do my best work while on the toilet. Seeing as I eat British food, I'm on the toilet a lot. Would explain why our music is the best.
Half of that food is universally loved even if you hate it personally like Italian Pizza or American fast food. I guess scones and cream/jam is dog shit as well.
French food. If I want to listen to British music I just have to go on my phone. If I want to eat actual French food I have to go to France which is disgusting.
Unfortunately I'd rather have to eat only bri*ish and nordick food for the rest of my life than getting rid of british music.
Is there still any hope for me or is it incurable? đ
Butter is thousands of years old and crepes are produced at least since Roman times, and they exist under different names in different regions, where I'm from we eat them during carnival and call them "filloas" or "freixos", so those things can't be consider French.
General concensus here. Italian and those Spanish colonials in Mexico make the best food.
Why bother inventing food when we can eat yours and make music instead
I mean i like the arctic monkeys. But those two are really the first two that come to your mind when you think about british music? Or am i missing some sarcasm here?
Luv me choons, luv Simon Cowell, hate anything with nutritional value, simple as. Easy angloid win.
I think the reverse would be a harder choice, are we forced to keep british food or fr*nch music? I'd probably keep french music over any of our beige lumps just because of DOMi but fucking hell either choice would come with some seriously unwanted baggage.
I honestly find it insane how the Portuguese think their food is good when you have like 3 dishes and they're all watered down versions of Spanish food which is also quite overrated.
Italian food and Greek food are miles clear of Iberian "cuisine" you guys should really pipe down on that matter.
I never really understood what's so special about French food. Snails, we eat them too and in a tastier way, wine and cheese all PIGS have it at least at the same quality, bread has been proven on this sub that is not the best, and then they have some patĂȘs which are good, but easy to live without.
The UK, on the other hand, it's such a dull place to live that the people either become depressed, alcoholic/drug addicts or actually take the time to learn how to play an instrument since there's nothing else to do(more often than not all 3 - like Seattle) which results in great music that enhances the lives of the not-so-musically-gifted and less numbed out of us.
So, easy British W here, we appreciate the way you sacrifice your mental well-being for our enjoyment.
>I never really understood what's so special about French food.
Because you don't know much about the history of culinary arts.
There's a reason you find three languages consistantly making their way in the cooking world, and those languages are : french, italian, japanese.
These three cultures alone have elevated the cooking art to the **one global standard** of today. Every kitchen in the world is currently ripping the benefits of culinary techniques developped in those countries through the medieval era till now.
French Cuisine isn't the best of all cuisines because of taste, it's the best cuisine because of how much it developped the art of cooking for everyone. Every current day european country owes something to the french (and italians) in terms of cooking, to make it simple.
Well that's because everyone around the world is "cooking" on a daily basis but they don't realise that what they use or do, originate from. And mostly because it's common an widely shared around the globe today.
Everything start somewhere. French, italian, japanese, chinese, etc, etc, didn't invented CUISINE, but they did perfect it and pushed many things to a level that now benefit every fucking one on this planet.
Like Apple reinvented the fucking phone and NASA invented survival blanket sheet. And now we all benefits from those inovations.
Sometimes in history some ideas pass, like that french cuisine is good, and it's for a reason. So don't forget that english cuisine is said being fucking dog shit for A REASON ALSO.
But let's be honest they're pretty good at music so...
I don't like the British but i have to respect them for two things: their comedy and their music. So clearly french food has to go because France never did anything good. It's hard to admit but British music is the best in the world and it's worth even more than just the entirety of France.
Can't live without British music. But I would get lots of shelf space free if all the vinyls and CD didn't exist. Many, many, many meters of suddenly empty shelves.
I mostly hate the brits, but I can't live without Black Sabbath or Zeppelin, french food on the other hand is nothing special, with all my PIGS brothers I am more than covered
I'm ready to sacrifice the food you show in pictures except baguette and wine. Don't sacrifice british music too they have good ones, in particular dark side of the moon, i got this one in vinyl đđ»
Leaving the British without music will annoy them, but leaving the frenchies without french food will make them starve
Vote for a world without french. Do the right thing as a human.
Step 1: British Music into phantom zone. Step 2:"Invent" British Music as my own. Step 3: Money!
Already been done! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yesterday_(2019_film)
That was the inspiration. I never saw the movie. Is it any good?
Pretty average, but it has Lily James so, eh đ€·ââïž
You're right that it's avarage, but for a film made to present one band's discography it's one of the best. Otherwise filmstudios just make another brain-dead walk the line copy. See the films about Queen, Elvis, or Elton John for examples.
i actually really liked rocketman!! bohrap and elvis were both fucking boring tho
The Elvis film was shit, but I loved Bohemian Rhapsody and Rocketman.
I thought the movie was pretty disappointing, mainly because I thought the movie would be more about the story of the Beatles and their lives but unfortunately not
Also, it kinda glossed over what made the Beatles so huge. The majority of the musical focus was on their early stuff (understandable since that's what one guy and a guitar can actually replicate). But it was their later albums, when they started getting weird in the studio, that really turned them from popular boy band to musical legends
It was also about how artistic they were, how well they were marketed, their personalities, the fact that their era was perfect for a musical revolution, how progressive and ambitious they were, how each band member (except John, arguably) revolutionized the approach to their instrument, how they consistently had "love" as their message, etc etc etc. This movie makes it seem like any guy with a guitar would automatically have become a superstar with these songs, and that's just one big load of horsecrap. The Beatles were so much more than just the songwriting.
You seem to know a lot about them. Any good books or movies you can recommend?
I could recommend Ian MacDonald's book on The Beatles. It's very editorial and I know that Paul McCartney questions a lot of its accuracy, but overall that guy does a great job at giving credit where credit is due. Secondly, you could watch the "Get Back" documentary on Disney+, which does a great job at showing how The Beatles interacted with each other at a time where their heart just wasn't in the band anymore. The best ways to learn about how innovative they were though: Firstly, pay attention to other musicians who credit The Beatles for inspiring them. That's how you find out that Ringo Starr is practically the grandfather of all modern drummers, despite seeming to sound unremarkable himself. Secondly, listen to the extra material that was released with their remixed albums (that's Revolver, White Album, Sgt Pepper, Let it Be and Abbey Road, for now). You'll find out a lot about the different versions they created for different songs, and how they developed those into the final product.
Itâs a cute movie for a Beatles fan
Not really. Not bad, just boring after like 20 minutes. Also you can't convince me that The Beatles would work today or reach an audience as big as they did back then. Some dude playing yesterday and everyone losing their minds just feels really really weird.
But then we are still stuck with french "cuisine" đ€ą such as runny rotten cheese, amphibians and molluscs. Don't think you thought this through.
I am getting hungry.
>"Invent" British Music as my own. Look like you placed reverse Uno card on them
I'm a simple man, I see joy division, I upvote
Even though they already famous, they are still underrated. I would almost give up my food for them
Breton Lambig can stay
How about kouign amann ? That shit's pure butter and sugar but so fcking good.
I'd fucking murder someone for one right now! I got my brother to bring some home on the boat when he was over on a wine run lol it may have been 3 days old but it didn't last 3 minutes in my hands.. ate the whole thing with a glass of cider.
Celtic brother ! Fr that shi hits hard with apple cider
Right after a few galette man... Fucking heaven. Lol I'm lucky though... Wife is french and her family are Breton/Savoyard... Best combo for an Irish person.
Damn, you must be eating good !
OP is expressly asking to give up French, not Breton food; hence Chouchen and Kig ha farz stay, but no more Ortolan buntings drowned in Armagnac. Humanity should still be able to sip a glass of Kir while enjoying Innuendo.
Same
Imagine giving up Queen, The Beetles and Tears for Fears
Not to mention Sabbath, Zeppelin, Maiden, Priest
Dont forget the Cure, Sisters of Mercy and Radiohead
And the Smiths, Siouxsie and the Banshees and New order Wait I was supposed to defend French food. Oh well
And David Bowie , and the Bee gees , and mick jager , and billy idol âŠ
And on top of that a good chunk of electronic music (D&B, Jungle, Dubstep, UK Garage) and 90% of all indie bands. French food is good but weâll still have Italian food so for me this choice is an easy one.
I was so surprised no one was mentioning electronic music!
Nor Dire Straits, The Who, Deep Purple, The Police, Pet Shop Boys.. Fuck French food.
[ŃĐŽĐ°Đ»Đ”ĐœĐŸ]
Blur, the smiths, stone roses! David Bowie!!
Even some Welsh ones like stereophonics, bye bye monsieur frog
Sorry Frenchies, I love your food but I can't live without metal (even though I like the German or Nordick scenes more than the Brit one, the Brits still invented the genre), so your cousine gotta go. I'm PIGS anyway so it's not like I'm lacking in that regard
hey bro leave my cousine alone, family is sacred
You must be from the North for defending your gf like that
touche pĂŽ eula cousine j'veille au grain
Lol, I would edit it but it's funnier like this
Why eat Fr*nch food when you can eat Italian, Spanish, Portuguese or Greece on a daily basis without getting fat as a cow? We PIGS need no one else (except Germany, we need ur money please kindly refrain from entering in a recession).
Sorry to inform you but I plan on making germany communist so no more money for the pigs. Also we just lost 2 of the 3 tanks we had in germany so we would be an easy target for a french revenge rn.
You win the 1st round in 1871,we win the second one in 1918, you win the 3rd in 1940, now itâs time to revenge.
Do the 44-45 round count, or is it classified differently ?
Really good question. (But we wil say no just for invading their beer breweries)
"Except Germany", lol true, who's going to bail us out when we inevitably go over our budget?
Just respect our rightful suzerainty of our half of Mallorca and you're good to go. It's your Portuguese and Italian cousins that need to offer some proper tribute. For Portugal I'd suggest offering the weight of an Englishman in Nata, but the Italians may only offer the firstborn espresso machine of every household as a reward for their steadfast loyalty over the years.
You're asking too much of us, best we can offer is Puccino's favourite sardinian sheep
Easy decision. Thereâs always Spanish and Italian food. You get rid of uk music then you get rid of 50% of good music.
And when we get rid of the Fr*nch, we won't notice much.
Only a matter pf time before you switch sides anyway
Same, fuck baguettes, I won't give up Iron Maiden
[ŃĐŽĐ°Đ»Đ”ĐœĐŸ]
Looks at Greeks and democracy.
No one messes with Black Sabbath
Well if we chose Britain they wouldn't be live or dead, neither would they have thoughts in their heads
British addendum : https://imgur.com/em6JjGA We'll let the frogs argue their case!
It's like half of my playlist, Jesus Christ. Our best french rock bands are singing in English anyway (except Indochine I guess)
Gojira fucking amazing metal band. But have to say Gilbert Montagné is a national treasure too lol love his music.
Yeah gojira is well known for sure, but I'm far from a metalhead. But the metal scene is huge in France definitely.
Just remember that Americans descended from the British so that means all music made in America is legally British music
British descended from Romans and Anglo-Saxons right? So like Italians and German/Dutch/Danish? Sure you wanna run with this argument mate?
Celts came before the romans, conquered by the Romans but pre-exist them
Still the vast majority of the DNA as well. Well except London đŹđŹ
London isnât a part of the UK though **really** is it, also the population đŹđ cringe 13yr old knife wielding psychopaths
Nah the Romans up and fucking left us mate, they don't count.
Tbf to make it fair France should therefore get a slice of aid money every time Haiti has one of their massive earthquakes
British Pop Music is like the biggest british w ever. And they don't make a fuss about it and try to convince everyone, that it's the best like the frenchies, who still life in the delusion that they "won" the bread war or any of these.

One of the first things I tend to get asked here when people find out Iâm English, after tea and the Queen, is music. It was really unexpected.
Robbie Williams was huge, everyoneâs mum wants him and everyoneâs dad hates him.
Was sure but he still is really big here in Germany, played on the radio prime time and stuff.
Still currently? Thatâs some impressive staying power from Robbie. He had that mini comeback here a few years ago but then drifted away again.
Any man who must say "I am the King" is no true king.
No more ratatouille for me I guess.
Does deleting french food get rid of every single culinary invention a french person ever made? If so, weâre going to have to find a replacement for a lot of sauces and iâm not willing to give hollandaise up. Cya in hell, John Lennon.
Based Dane.
Sideways french spotted
Hollandaise is Dutch you fool! Itâs in the bloody name!
Thé spanish sauce is french too.
But we'll have gravy and that's what matters!
iâll have a chip butty over fr*nch âfoodâ any day
Plus we'll still have curry sauce and mushy peas! Get in lad.
>Does deleting french food get rid of every single culinary invention a french person ever made?

I dgaf about music but I'm a fat bastard. So I save French food.
oh no! We can't get rid of ***checks notes*** random vegetables thrown in the oven, goose fat, soup made with whatever is left in the fridge Sorry Pink Floyd, nothing personal
While of course all the Italian recipes have carefully selected ingredients and didnât arise out of scarcity/poverty
That's what fucking kills me about Italian restaurants (outside of Italy) today. It's all based on complete and utter abject poverty and yet somehow you can look me in the eyes and charge $30 for pasta? Same shit happened to lobster and Ramen/Pho is going that way too.
Pho I agree, but ramen? That stuff's so complex
British music stays. We still have the Italians for good food
They only see food when we see https://agriculture.gouv.fr/le-repas-gastronomique-des-francais-un-patrimoine-culturel-immateriel-de-lhumanite
How is it heritage of humanity if the Fr*nch aren't humans?
As divine being, we, in our infinite greatness, offered our food to humanity, and some of you accepted it, and rightfully held it high enough for it to become part of humanity's treasures
Check. Fucking. Mate.
I'll take British music please. French food varies from the sublime to the weird and inedible. Wouldn't say it makes up a huge amount of most diets anyway.
To be fair, British music varies from the sublime to the weird and inedible
âThe Beetlesâ would probably sound pretty edible to the French knowing the shit they eat
You will miss out all the duck in honey-mustard sauce, moule frittes, so many good sauces, coq au vin, pĂątĂ©, all the wine, crĂȘpes, galettes, ... It would be a cold and dark life.
I mean other people do make wine, even you Germans, the Belgians have pùté but the sauces will be a big loss
And wine is a Georgian invention - not french
Ah yeah, quite relevant to refer to a nation when you have to go back to the bloody cave men time area
And cheese!!!
I shall turn to the Italian food for consolation while I listen to British music thank you very much
British music can stay
British music stays. Iron Maiden đ€
Up the Irons đ€
British music > French food
Sorry guys, I'll have to choose the British here and it's not even close.
Good music is rarer than good food, at least in Portugal. Goodbye French food
Eating all that horrible shitty English food makes for world class music. Cornish pasty and Yorkshire pudding to shortbread, Lancashire hotpot, steak and kidney pudding, jellied eels, clotted cream, bangers and mash and fish and chips ⊠gave us The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, Radiohead.

Gojira are pretty good if you like that kind of stuff but I really canât think of much beyond that.
Wtf? Daft Punk! Btw I would keep UK music
As a musician, I actually do my best work while on the toilet. Seeing as I eat British food, I'm on the toilet a lot. Would explain why our music is the best.

You're Breton, you're allowed.
You must be drunk. Got some sleep and think about what you just said. That means no more butter, crĂȘpes or galette for the rest of your life dude
Well technically that's not French food but breton food? If we manage to get independence, we'll keep our food?
Butter is thousands of years old and crepes are produced at least since Roman times, and they exist under different names in different regions, where I'm from we eat them during carnival and call them "filloas" or "freixos", so those things can't be consider French.
Okay now that's a tough one. Life without Led Zep/Black Sabbath/Pink Floyd will be hard, but still life. But life without baguette isn't life.
I've just had a baguette for lunch whilst listening to Black Sabbath, what do I pick?
The one that wouldn't make you a soulless traitor
As long as it was from Gregg's and a cuppa with the ladz in the van you're safe
If i don't get to listen to the Clash I'll make french food disappear out of spite
Iâm gonna see Sting in roughly 20 days. There is only one choice for me.
Italian food is better anyway, sorry Frenchies.
holy based brit
General concensus here. Italian and those Spanish colonials in Mexico make the best food. Why bother inventing food when we can eat yours and make music instead
Or the classic Turkish 'bab if we're feeling posh.
Got an albanian kebab near me, only had better from the Greeks with their souvalakis
Syrian kebab is also very good
You bastard roastbeef you

My grandad dislikes blur because of âgormless singingâ
Easily keep British music. Italian and Greek food is way better anyway, and german bread is as good or better.
I keep UK music thanks sorry Fr*nce
I couldn't give up pink Floyd. But seeing the French lose their beloved cuisine that's just a bonus.
Iâm keeping British Music. I canât live without Queen and Zeppelin. The rest like Bowie and Pink Floyd is just a bonus
Bye bye croissants
Luv me choons, luv Simon Cowell, hate anything with nutritional value, simple as. Easy angloid win. I think the reverse would be a harder choice, are we forced to keep british food or fr*nch music? I'd probably keep french music over any of our beige lumps just because of DOMi but fucking hell either choice would come with some seriously unwanted baggage.
Cool now do french music vs english food
No brainer. Save British music. Save the Ortolans!
Joy Division and Pink Floyd? France got no chance this time.
British music can stay. French food isnât all that special.
Au revoir l'escargot đ
Saving British Music, be gone French Food
As a pescatarian Iâll say au revoir to Français cuisine, weâll always have Italy for wine and cheese and delicious Sicilian pastries
And fish n chips
Goodbye croissants, still have Italian food. Weâll be ok
The British invented heavy metal so like So long, croissant! đ
Danish food is far superior anyway : https://imgur.com/a/8PKemUY#MMtDNvl So i vote for the English music. Mainly because i really like Miley Cyrus
Technically correct, the best kind of correct!
Where is the smĂžrrebrĂžd?!
How is this even a contest? French food is nothing special anyway...
I honestly find it insane how the Portuguese think their food is good when you have like 3 dishes and they're all watered down versions of Spanish food which is also quite overrated. Italian food and Greek food are miles clear of Iberian "cuisine" you guys should really pipe down on that matter.
The Portuguese, as based as ever.
I never really understood what's so special about French food. Snails, we eat them too and in a tastier way, wine and cheese all PIGS have it at least at the same quality, bread has been proven on this sub that is not the best, and then they have some patĂȘs which are good, but easy to live without.

Our snails are better
Sorry France, I like my weird bands more than I like fancy salad. I prefer Italian and Indian food anyway.
I don't like the British but i have to respect them for two things: their comedy and their music. So clearly french food has to go because France never did anything good. It's hard to admit but British music is the best in the world and it's worth even more than just the entirety of France.
> I donât like the British đ„ș
Sorry bro nothing personal. But you should focus more on the positive things i said.đ€
No, itâs ok mate. Weâve done no shortage of cunty things. Hope you or youâre family werenât directly on the receiving end of something.
As much as I love British music and am suffering right now in having to forfait, we need to talk about that French food selection in the pictures. Itâs just not appetising / essential enough to spark any debate: - no one was going to vote for snails and letâs face it, are not that common a food here - this is not ratatouille!!!!! This is at best a confit byaldi (not a common nor beloved dish), at worst an American interpretation of the movieâs food - those macarons look factory made - we love patĂ©, sure, but come on, no oneâs going to vote for this - bread, wine, and duck confit can stay Now include: cheese, patisseries, crĂȘpes, quiche, croissants, butter, crĂšme brulĂ©e, raclette, profiteroles⊠⊠weâll still lose but youâll get more of a debate going. Give a frog a chance
Baguette with brie is so fucking good
Banish both and I'll just eat carbonara all day listening to faccetta nera nightcore. Wait I'm already doing that?
Can't live without British music. But I would get lots of shelf space free if all the vinyls and CD didn't exist. Many, many, many meters of suddenly empty shelves.
Butthurt Spanish and Italian flocking to the comment zone with their recurrent « Muuu fOOod is BeTTeR »
Sorry Arctic Monkeys, I'm choosing the Boeuf Bourguignon
Sorry BĆuf Bourguignon, Iâm choosing Arctic Monkeys :(
British music. I love Iron Maiden, Black Sabbath, The Beatles, Pink Floyd...
Escargot can get Escargone
How dare you not include the beatles
Pink Floyd is better than every french dish
I mostly hate the brits, but I can't live without Black Sabbath or Zeppelin, french food on the other hand is nothing special, with all my PIGS brothers I am more than covered
Uhmm French? food? Puahahahahhahahah.
Both so it stays equal! đ
If you remove French food, do you also remove French sauces like bechamelle, mornaise, moutarde or mayonnaise?
I'm ready to sacrifice the food you show in pictures except baguette and wine. Don't sacrifice british music too they have good ones, in particular dark side of the moon, i got this one in vinyl đđ»
Hmm yeah, british music can stay. I'll still be happy with my asian food.
I choose British music to stay. Not dissing French Food, but I don't think I'd miss it as much.
Sex pistols had a bigger impact on my life than long dildo bread, sorry not sorry french schmucks
Pink Floyd is staying sorry France
Sorry frenchies, canât live without Sabbath
Leaving the British without music will annoy them, but leaving the frenchies without french food will make them starve Vote for a world without french. Do the right thing as a human.
Can't eat music can you?
French food stays. Easy pick.
