[Closed] James Corden

His parents had sex. He popped out. Somehow turned into a 'comedian'?

Because he is fat he must have a good personality and be funny - stupid. 🙄

flavour of the month

****

Amazing. Thought the collective would shoot me down in flames.

Love Gavin & Stacey, the writing and him in it.
Dont find him at all funny otherwise

Patrick stewart roolz!

His parents had sex.

We shouldn't be too hard on them. It's a very natural impulse, and they didn't know what the consequences would be.

You said hard on 😆

Amazing. Thought the collective would shoot me down in flames.

And no, he's not funny, or even vaguely amusing.

"Love Gavin & Stacey, the writing and him in it."

I actually quite like Gavin and Stacey, and he's pretty decent in it, I guess he cast himself as himself. But it's never been funny, it's some sort of weird mockumentary thing like the office, that gets mistaken for comedy because some people like to laugh at idiots.

Patrick Stewart > James Corden.

That is all.

Least funny c_nt I've seen in years, just awful. Gives Michael McIntyre a run. Isn't he doing some stuff for the World Cup?

I thought he was funny
then I thought he was a prick
then I thought he was funny
but now he's dissed Patrick Stewart he will forever be a prick
nobody knocks Captain Jean-Luc Picard of the USS Enterprise NCC-1701-D
nobody

Ok James, we get the joke...you're fat...

Anything else?

I detest Gavin & Stacey.
I detest James Corden (being fat doesn't make you funny)
I detest that little lady boy thing he always appears on TV with
I detest that fat Welsh monster that is on Gavin & Stacey too (shudders when I image it)

less gavin and stacey, more uncle Brynn please.

Why does Patrick Stewart have to mention anything about his belly?

Patrick Stewart < James Corden.

He should do a double act with Moyles!

All of you above who have dissed the fat **** will go to the top of my xmas card list. No one gets away with mocking Patrick Stewart. Didnt he have nervous breakdown when the population realised his stand up wasn't funny?

what are you talking about?

Utterly fat slob using comedy as a defense mechanism to hide the underlying fact that he doesn't have the self control to PUT THE EFFING PIES DOWN and is therefore a miserable fatty that will die an early slobby cheese fueled death.
Good Riddance Tubbs.

I'm not keen, Gavin and Stacy was great, good they ended it when they did though, was starting to get a bit flat. His Comedy with that other bloke is pretty dire, and hes all over the place at the moment. But how did he diss Patrick Stewart? Stewart was obviously mortal and acting like a prize idiot, before turning on Corden, who I think handled it well.

Bloody hell there are some hateful, humourless, dried up husks on here.

No one gets away with mocking Patrick Stewart

so no one gets away with mocking someone involved in a frankly horrendous rehash of a rubbish programme to begin with. do you play world of warcraft by any chance?

Haha - nice bit of bile from mos there. 😯

I'm not a fan personally - and dissing Jean Luc Picard....?

[img] [/img]

He is a prize t1t but then I'm not keen on Patrick Stewart either - very up himself.

I may be mad but I find the blond bird (Stacey) very fit indeed.

1) Pretty poor leap of logic there wharton, do you like to insult people based on wild assumptions?
2) I think you may be referring to Star Trek, that's an aberration as far as I am concerned I prefer his theatre work. His hamlet was awesome, my mum saw him play Prospero in the 90's and thought she'd died and gone to heaven, and he recently played Vladimir in waiting for Godot which blew me away at the Haymarket. Basically Patrick Stewart is a skilled and talented actor with a 40 year pedigree, and Corden is a fly by night kahnt.
3) So quite frankly blow me.

I've never particularly disliked him, but he does seem to be popping up on more & more things lately and it's starting to get annoying.
Everytime you turn the TV on, he's there in some context and I find that quite annoying (even though I don't know why).

Patrick Stewart is > James Corden but...

Does anyone else not think Patrick was perhaps above getting involved in the first place?

And was he not above presenting at the Glamour awards?

I too thought that, but I think Corden needs a slap and Patrick Stewart was the man to do it.

out of the limited clips I watched, it was Patrick Stewart who was being a bit of a ****.

Patrick told him off for looking bored and then checked that his name was James; making a good point IMO.

I don't find Corden's humour faintly funny and I find him cringeworthy to watch and a bit of a cock when being 'himself' but Stewart was being a cock too.

So, we have cock fighting, no?

Got to be honest, I really don't know what you're on about with ref Patrick Stewart..

But if it comes to kicking the fat lad when he's down, count me in..

Hate Gavin and Stacey
Hate Uncle Bryn
Hate James Corden

it proves how shite the world of celeb becomes when that **** can make it onto national tele

Has anyone got the number for Corden's agent? He appears to be a miracle worker and I fancy a change of career. 'Comedian' sounds like fun, and it appears you do not have to be funny or entertaining at all.

He was rude to Captain Picard!

Beam him to Rura Penthe.

I like him. Patrick Stewart means nothing to me as I'm not a trekkie (or whatever nerds are called these days). I haven't seen the clip.

Well I like him, and I think he's funny and talented.

I haven't seen the Patrick Stewart clip, but I doubt it would alter my opinion.

As soon as he stepped out of gavin and stacey he came across as a young cocky talentless idiot who'd mistaken the talents of his writers for his own abilities as a comedian. Didn't he do an utterly awful sketch show that got cancelled pretty quickly?
I suspect he will dissappear pretty soon, whilst patrick stewart will comtinue being great.

Huh? James Corden writes. Which is a lot more than the one-role only actor who's only skill is shaving his head and having a suitably deep luvvy voice.

newsflash: its 2010 and the internet is still full of trekie geeks

mistaken the talents of his writers for his own abilities as a comedian

he wrote Gavin and Stacy with Ruth Jones (Nessa)....

and your point is? 😆

'Gavin and Stacey' = 'Royal Family' = 'Bread'

gentle and humourless, like bromide for the masses.

james corden, can sh+t his own leg off for all i care.......wish it would stop raining.

Yeah, that Stewart guy's done nothin but Picard.

He's still a muppet for what he said though - right sentiment, wrong timing.

+ 1, saves me typing

i find him quite funny, league of their own way a really good show, and gavin and stacy is good, not seen him in anything else, but those 2 things have been good

I suspect he will dissappear pretty soon

Not before presenting a world cup show after every big game on ITV apparently - instead of Baddiel and Skinner 👿

Even the wiki page outlines his career as "early works" "star trek" and "other"

Sorry, he's famous for being in Star Trek TNG, being bald, and er... that's it. Until now, when he's also famous for making a dick of himself. Maybe he should have a go at writing - I wouldn't advise comedy though, since he clearly has zero potential in that direction.

He may be most known for Star Trek for those that watch such things but he is known for being an uncommonly good actor by those that care.

I wish I could honestly say "Who's James Corden?", but unfortunately he seems to be everywhere at the mo. Oh well, hopefully his "fame clock" has reached 14 mins 59 secs now.

And the same goes for Adrian Chiles... 👿

Hasn't Chiles just got into the big league? Well lured away from BBC anyway. The shows he does now aren't my thing but I used to like him on Working Lunch years ago.

he wrote Gavin and Stacy with Ruth Jones (Nessa)....

OMG, you're right. How is it the rest of his stuff is so awful!

OMG, you're right. How is it the rest of his stuff is so awful!

Because Ruth Jones wrote all the good bit of G&S, the wonderful, warm, thought provoking stuff, the bits that made it all worthwhile.
He wrote the knob gags.

The Lily Allen of comedy - initially entertaining, but tedious after three minutes and incredibly annoying after five.
Gives fat people a bad name.
Will end up as a sad alcoholic in the Cheggers mould, hopefully.

what a lovely thing to wish on someone. Take a bow for being todays total dickhead

Am I the only one who noticed that Patrick Stewart seemed tired and confused as a lord on the video?

Cheggers is far from either sad or an alcholic, and actually a very nice chap, and pretty damn witty in person. Funny how a media snap shot from years back sticks though.

Perhaps the 'hopefully' was a bit off.

Cheggers is now fully recovered and has a decent career, of which he can be proud.
Let's hope Corden can be proud of his someday.

Do you antis not find this funny then? [url=

Relief England Team thingy[/url]

Had dinner next to Patrick Stewart in Madrid; there was only him, his wife and me (on a business trip) in the hotel restaurent.
I restrained the urge to go all trekky uber-fan.

Liked Gavin & Stacy (esp as actor who played Stacy's mum is the wife of a friend) but dissing Prof X...
oiiiii Corden NO!

Do you antis not find this funny then? Comic Relief England Team thingy

I lasted 58 secs including the intel ad.

Not funny.

Ah well, there you go. Takes all sorts to make real life. I laughed.

58 seconds doesn't get to the jokes though. So you declared it not funny without actually seeing it. Like I said, takes all sorts.

Maybe most of us are just a bit too old for him? Like Lenny Henry, you grow out of him....

Comic Relief England Team thingy

I confess I struggled with this Glen. The canned laughter track seems to go off when he says things as though they're funny, which I don't follow. Is what he says supposed to be funny, or is it funny like The Office, where you're watching an unbearably awful person say something stupid as though it's funny?

Genuine question, I quite appreciate that tastes vary, but I really don't get Corden. Kingtut's lego animation set to Eddie Izzard doing the Death Star Canteen thing last week had me in stitches. 🙂

Like Lenny Henry, you grow out of him....

Rudy's Rare Records on Radio 4 is quite good, but Lenny is the worst thing in it. 🙂

The canned laughter is not my cup of tea. But if you don't get the laughs then you just don't get them. Whatever - I find it puzzling this hatred of James Corden. I think he's talented and funny.

As for having a go at him about the PS thing - it was the stuck-up luvvy that started it!

Lenny Henry is a good actor but a rubbish (read tired) comedian.

58 seconds doesn't get to the jokes though. So you declared it not funny without actually seeing it. Like I said, takes all sorts

I was a bit vague, I mean I find him not funny - full stop.

Kingtut's lego animation set to Eddie Izzard doing the Death Star Canteen thing last week had me in stitches

It is indeed the funniest thing on the web (you tube at least).

For those who have not had the pleasure..

[url=

Star Canteen[/url]

ohhh, that's James Corden !?

I don't really get him either. Pretty much what BD and someone else said about being like the office. The England team thing is the only thing that he's done that I found a bit funny, and you have to set that against the next effort on the sports personality show which was only amusing before he came onstage (and that was only because he got loads of sports people to join in the joke on film) and then went downhill fast. Flogged a mildly amusing dead horse IMO.

Gavin & stacey was OK but I don't much rate Smithy

He's fat ugly tube. If he's good at writing comedy, he should stick to that and keep his repellent, bloated cakehole off my telly. There are enough munters/bloaters in real life - TV should be the sole preserve of beautiful, airbrushed visions of perfection like Fiona Bruce. 😈

So he's fat and far from making an apology for it he makes a joke out of it - and that's what you object to?

He may be most known for Star Trek for those that watch such things but he is known for being an uncommonly good actor by those that care.

I've just seen the clip of Corden and Stewart on YouTube.

It reminded me of the cold war phrase - Mutually Assured Destruction

So he's fat and far from making an apology for it he makes a joke out of it - and that's what you object to?

I think most people (here) just don't find him funny, calling him fat is just a nice little insult to tag on.

god is this thread still going?

He will become one of those people famous for being famous and no one will recall why.

And [b]then[/b] he will implode under the weight of expectation.
(Alcohol may or may not be involved - it might be cake. Or cocaine, that seems quite popular).

Seems to be one of those people who are considered funny when playing an exaggerated version of themselves, but struggle to move on.

Shame he's been built up so much by the media - he's only young and would have benefited from the chance of a year or so off to go away and write something genuinely amusing.

wasn't he in the film with the boys at some Sheffield school looking to go to Cambridge with a teacher who touched them up - the fat one from Pie in the Sky?
he seemed a good actor in that, rather than a c***
