[@andrewcoates6641]

Not only is the character a British secret agent but the books featuring the character were written by Ian Fleming who was a member of the British secret service during WW2 although he worked in London, he was one of those people who helped to create the officers who were sent into the covert operations against the Axis powers. He also regularly worked with American intelligence agency the OSS which later became the CIA. After the war he left the country and moved to the island of Jamaica, to start his writing career. The first actor to play the role on radio was actually an American but he was later replaced by a British actor who had been living in South Africa and later gained fame as the presenter of a British television game show called Blockbusters, his name was Bob Holness, who was renowned for being asked by the contestants “Can I have a P please Bob.” The only film on the list that I have not watched was Hamlet, most of them several times and the best for me is the Ladykillers which has been recently remade in America starring Tom “Forest Gump” Hanks.

Of course it is satire, aimed to appeal to British folk (like me) and anglophiles elsewhere. It is subtle satire, tapping on the below-the-surface pride of British people in our global cultural and historical significance, mocking also American ignorance about the world outside the USA. The clue-in is the intro about "just an average American". Plus, every video is carefully scripted and edited, and pushes the envelope of ridiculous ignorance, as here with James Bond and Daniel Craig.

The Third Man is pure genius. I am not British but I have seen all these movies. Lawrence of Arabia is one of the most breathtaking movies of all time. The 39 Steps is Hitchcock perfection. Dr No is possibly the best Bond movie of all. To not notice that Bond is British, and works for British intelligence is crazy to me. Tyler, you have seem plenty of British films, you have just not realised they were British. 2001: A Space Odyssey, Four Weddings & A Funeral, A Fish Named Wanda, Life of Brian, Borat, etc. Many Oscar winners have been British. Films like Gandhi, Slumdog Millionaire, Chariots of Fire, The King's Speech, The Last Emperor for example. Then there are the movies that can be more difficult to ascribe to an individual country. Dr Zhivago for example was a British/Italian/US production, but shot mostly in Spain. The Day of The Jackal was a British/French production and shot in both countries. There are a lot of movies with that large British component.

'The life and death of Colonel Blimp' (Powell and Pressberger), starring Roger Livesey and Deborah Kerr, was released during the Second World War. It depicts a 'good', non-Nazi, middle-aged German. Winston Churchill wanted to ban it.

[@markharris1125]

James Bond is British? Daniel Craig is American? Oh, we're off to a great start. Shakespeare is British? What? "Lawrence of Arabia . . . an esteemed British officer in World War One." "So it's about a guy named Lawrence? And he goes to Arabia? Not exactly technically sure where that is. And it has to do with war?" Serious note: Powell and Pressburger's best film was 'A Matter Of Life and Death.' Also serious: how weird to mention Barry Lyndon and not 2001. Anyway, another classic from Tyler, back on form. I might try to rewrite 'To be or not to be' in American, if I'm feeling creative over the next few days. Of course, we'll always have Arnie: kzbin.info/www/bejne/b3bSn6eVrqp6kNU

[@johnkemp8904]

I really do think this is the very worst Tyler Rumple video I have yet seen. I follow several U.S. reactors to British subjects and all of them seem to start from a basis of ‘I don’t know too much about the UK but I want to find out more’ - and then they do so. This video is not about anything more than popular culture which is surely within most people’s grasp - but not his. I hesitate to cast aspersions on his mentality because I should really be upset if I were to put my foot in it by insulting a person somewhat fragile in the brain but I cannot continue to follow him if this is to be his standard. Unsubscribed.

[@lisbetsoda4874]

He is a university graduate but I assume he has an engineering degree or such, where he knows his subject but very little of the world at large.

[@petegarnett7731]

The Life and Death of Colonel Blimp was a masterpiece showing the change in society in both England and Germany through the rivalry of two "officer class" men. It covers most of the first half of the 20th century and starred Roger Livesey. Tyler would not begin to comprehend it. I was fortunate enough to see it first time round when the context was relevant.

[@WinstonSmith19847]

James Bond will always have a British accent seeing as the character is famously British and works for the British secret service.

[@samsativa245]

Craig is not pronounced Creg like the way you would pronounce that site craigslist. It is pronounced as 'Crayg' and is actually Scottish in origin. James Bond the single most iconic British film export of all time really, based on various British spies that Ian Fleming came across during his work for British Naval Intelligence in WW2

I think there is a scene in the film where Forest asks if Little Forest is like him. I took that to mean Forest Gump is aware of his differences. It's much less clear than Tyler is aware or cares. Best Wishes. ☮

Oh Gawd, how ignorant is this guy. Says a lot about the poor standard of the american education system that Tyler is seemingly unaware that Hamlet is a play written by England's greatest playwright William Shakespeare!

[@marklongdon2435]

The Clockwork Orange was never banned in the UK. Kubrick withdrew it himself because of death threats.

[@amandaholt5791]

Who wants to tell him that all James Bonds actors were from the British isles & 22 of the 24 movies were filmed at Pinewood studios? Also A lot of the Star Wars films were filmed in English Studios. 10 years ago you could drive past the millennium falcon on the M27! A lot of the films on this list were shown on TV on a Sunday afternoon during the 1980s, so I’ve seen most of them.

Lawrence of Arabia was one of the greatest movies ever. It won 7 Academy Awards including Best Picture..The film was nominated for ten Oscars at the 35th Academy Awards in 1963, winning seven including Best Picture and Best Director. It also won the Golden Globe Award for Best Motion Picture - Drama and the BAFTA Awards for Best Film and Outstanding British Film. The dramatic score by Maurice Jarre and the Super Panavision 70 cinematography by Freddie Young also won praise from critics. Lawrence of Arabia is widely regarded as one of the greatest films ever made. In 1991, it was deemed "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant" by the United States Library of Congress and selected for preservation in the National Film Registry.[7][8] In 1998, the American Film Institute placed it fifth on their 100 Years..

[@Dej24601]

Hitchcock was born in London. He spent years making silent and then sound films, totaling about 25 in all, in England (and some for German studios.) He was brought to Hollywood in the spring of 1939 (at a time when many Europeans were still able to come to the US, but later had restrictions due to wartime conditions.) Throughout his career in the US, he used many British actors and crew, and several of those films were at least partially set in Britain.

[@duncanliath]

l have seen all of these, The '39 Steps' & 'Lawrence of Arabia' are my favourites. But l must say, David Hemmings does a great David Bailey in 'Blow Up' with Vanessa Redgrave putting in a great performance. Yes Tyler in these in these movies they actually have dialogue, characters and story lines with not just things exploding .......lol

[@cannissolis]

Tyler Rumple, as a 60 year Old brit, I have seen all the films mentioned, this is partly due to a now defunct organisation called the Film industry distribution organisation (FIDO) that was funded by a percentage of box office ticket sales and existed to keep movies off the television for 10 years from release. This ensured that growing up in the 60's to 80's I saw many films older than myself, and in hindsight am glad this was the case as not only did I get to see many British and American masterpieces that I otherwise would have missed but I also appreciate the beauty and art in Black and white movies which rely on artful frame composition for visual impact instead of merely relying on the fact that it's in colour. Also these older movies rely on brilliant: scripts; acting and story telling to entertain instead of a constant stream of action driven special effects which seem to take the place of a good: story; script and acting. Hamlet one of The Bard's (William Shakespeare) most famous plays! You did realise? How could you watch a Bond movie and not realise 007 is British secret service? It's part of the plot! The author, Iain Fleming grew up in Oxfordshire. T.E. Lawrence (Lawrence of Arabia) played an important part in British history in the middle East and famously died when he crashed his Brough Superior motorcycle on a country road. He wrote an autobiography called The seven pillars of wisdom upon which the film is based and is superbly portrayed by English actor Peter O'toole. The original 39 steps made by British born Alfred Hitchcock and featuring the famous and beautifully spoken Robert Donat is by far the best version and is full of subtle humour. Anyway thanks for the entertaining videos. I hope you aren't offended if I say that some of your mannerisms and accent remind me of Steve Stiffler in American pie.

[@harrison78]

Americans really don't venture far from home do they. Many of these films are quite old though. There have equally been a lot of newer British films he might have heard of.. but probably still didn't realise they were British!
