I think it’s more of a “Russian movie” stereotype than a Russian stereotype, at least for me. I’ve never been to Russia, so all I know is what I’ve seen in the movies and media, and what I remember from the cold war, but that was a different time. To me, the movies are just movies and I don’t take them too seriously.
Another Russian stereotype I can dis-credit is that Russian women are ugly. I Googled and they are pretty hot.
We are all citizens of the Blender nation. Peace my brothers. And nice work everyone.
I had a good Russian / English friend for years, stayed at the family house a lot of the time and we travelled the world together. We used to spend a lot of time smoking and drinking vodka in their garden shed. So, no, no ill feelings about Ruskies, quite opposite. Also recently finished the Gibson book Pattern Recognition which ends in Russia.
That’s just not true. There are 7 entries and just 2 bombs. So if you don’t like the bombs, there are still entries you could vote for. Not that there is anything wrong with the bombs, as a matter of fact, I almost voted for braindamage instead of myself this week, but then I figured I could use all the votes I can get. Sorry braindamage
Also, if the title was different, e.g. The Russian Bear, then the images would be different. “From Russia With Love” is the title of a cold war spy thriller, it begs this type of response from a bunch of comedic weekend artists. But if someone set’s the title of “Pirates”, i’m going to do one in a tutu practising ballet in case I offend any…
No, all the Russians I know tend to be cool and intelligent…
Well said, but I don’t think doing yourself in a tutu is a good way to not offend anyone. That might just offend everyone. Please, nobody pick “pirates” for a topic.:no: kidding
