I hate this little shrimp cos the geriatric Academy voters gave his 'film' Annie Hall the Best Picture Oscar over STAR WARS back in '78.

    I hate Woody Allen, because he eats brussels sprouts...and I don't like brussels sprouts.

    What if they're not stars? What if they are holes poked in the top of a container so we can breath?

      I dislike Woody Allen because he fired me while shooting, 'Broadway Danny Rose.'

      Cheers. - Frank

        Be honest, everyone has fired you, at one time or another.

        My one major regret, in life...is that I never had the chance to fire you.

                I never used to much like Woody Allen but I do now. Anyone who gets up the nose of WC, the machete infatuated braggart, is just fine by me.

                  Woody Allen is a creep - and so over-rated - but Hollyweird over-rates many idiots as far as I'm concerned

                  and I have disliked Woody Allen well before WC was even born - lol

                    Your bias is showing. He has produced, directed and performed in some of the best movies in the history of American cinema, whether you like him or not. You can't deny the man's talent.

                      Imagine everything Woody Allen could have accomplished...if only he had kept you with him.

                      I admit, a Woody Allen 1970's comedy, is about as good as it gets. I watched The Curse of the Jade Scorpion recently, and laughed my ass off.

                        Raising a child is akin to knowing you're getting fired in 18 years and having to train your replacement without actively sabotaging them.

                            That is what is referred to as a Sniffle movie.

                      I'm entitled to my opinion. I don't like the man whether he is talented or not. It's as simple as that.

                        Possibly if I knew him as well as you seem to, I might have a different opinion of him. I guess I hang-out at the wrong country clubs.

                        Not quite. I'm afraid that I must insist that you justify your opinion. :-)

                          hahaha - very funny.
                          insist all you want - I have nothing else to say but I'm sure you do.

                    and I have disliked Woody Allen well before WC was even born - lol
                    Karen, I will have to agree with you on the creep part.

                    He is really a weirdo but as far as talent ?

                    I always thought he had some well written and directed Movies.

                    Hannah and her Sisters I really liked and Radio Days.

          Sign the contract, PayPal me my retainer, fire me and ask for a refund. Let me know how that works out for you.

    I now like Woody Allen because he fired BF during the filming of "Broadway Danny Rose."

    Raising a child is akin to knowing you're getting fired in 18 years and having to train your replacement without actively sabotaging them.

      It would have been a much better film, had he kept me in it. :-)
