I've noticed there are always people who think they have to disagree with the first poster with threads like this, and it seems to be some kind of arrogant "well, everyone else thinks its good, so I won't" attitude regardless of what they actually think. It gets pretty annoying.

Anyways, I think he is quite good at both of the impressions, pretty impressive.

Maybe he actually didn't think it was good?

You actually think this is impressive? It seems "comedy" is becoming less and less sane these days.

@Gil Galvanti
I'm not just trying to contradict the first poster. Like Jeku said, we have freedom of speech and we don't have to agree. You live in the US, you should know.

People are entitled to their own opinion, just as people are entitled to the opinion that Aluseus could have posted a stronger argument if he wanted, instead of what appears to be some auto-negative comment that serves only to incite reaction. If this was his opinion then what is it based on?, where's the tangible argument that would make some agree with these types of post?

Nobody else notice the trend of these types of post recently?

It's all good, just as long as every American doesn't cite the 1st amendment every single time as if it was remotely relevant here. The fact is that you guys signed up to a moderated forum where your posts will be locked/deleted is they fall outside of TGC's guidelines; so the first amendment means nothing here.

The bottom line is that this guy is clearly a talented impressionist, posts to the contrary should have some meat to them, otherwise it's just auto-negative flamebait - so lets not dress it up as an opinion.

Yeah, sad that there's only a small handful of contries were people are allowed to disagree with eachother. As I'm not in one of them, I would have to agree with him.

Yeah. He could easily have said, "Atrocious", "utterly not good",
"terribly amateurish", "who does he think he is? Woody Allen!"

But he said neither of those. All he said was a simple "Meh".
That, in my opinion, is truly a genuine opinion.

Well...yes, his impressions are very close, closer than any impressionist I've heard before, saying that my housemate has quite a knack for it, but I don't think his voice could range from the Joker to Kate Bush. Kate Bush's voice I can imagine is difficult to imitate, for a start it is quite unique, even if you don't like her music.

Top talent? I'm sure Norway has more talent, I clicked on one of the other videos on youtube and there was a 20 year old guy with a fantastic opera voice, I'd say that's more impressive, but either way, I thought his impressions were good.

He's good at the impressions but I wonder how he's planning to evolve this if he actually wants to win this contest? Surely just doing impressions can't be enough.

I think he should have done different impressions. I'm pretty sure everyone can do a golem voice lol. His impressions were very good but I didn't really find anything unique about it.

His Gollum was pretty sweet. But i think the Chuck Norris impersonator on the panel is better.

I think that's more what I was getting at in my post, you just said it better. But the 1st amendment protects my freedom of speech so I can say whatever I want!

I don't think the first amendment really applies to private message boards hosted in the UK.
