    the last 20 sec. are the best bit of the clip.. you know the BLACK SCREEN part..

  6. 6. mishref | August 13th, 2007 at 6:44 pm

    The best thing about it is the camera angels and the lighting. Otherwise total BS.

    It’s nice when a bunch of spoiled brats make total idiots of themselves.

    Since when did english girls know about the mighty tarqeem anyways lol.

    The problem is the star of the show seems too shy to show his face.

  9. 9. Marzouq | August 13th, 2007 at 7:42 pm

    I have seen this from a little while back now! lol!

  10. 10. MiYaFuSHi | August 13th, 2007 at 8:18 pm

    Why all the negative comments? At least they took the initiative to practice their video making skills.

    Law amreecan chan giltaw wow wanasa 3ajeeb.

  11. 11. holla | August 13th, 2007 at 8:39 pm

    why is there almost 2 minutes of black at the end?

  12. 12. Q80Warlock | August 13th, 2007 at 8:41 pm

    Censored by the MOI lol :P

  13. 13. Purgatory | August 13th, 2007 at 9:18 pm

    I enjoyed the last 2 minutes.

  14. 14. sadkljcn | August 13th, 2007 at 9:49 pm

    i second miyafushi

  15. 15. Amjad | August 13th, 2007 at 10:12 pm

    So in Kuwait you also have the Love street? :-p

    The video itself is indeed silly, cheesy & pointless. I don’t understand why did they make it. But for a fact I admit that the quality of the video is really very good.

  16. 16. bin_salim | August 13th, 2007 at 10:43 pm

    i would apreciate it very much if for once someone would show kuwait off as something other than an american wannabe infested nation with ppl trying desperatly to display it as a narcotic infested miami…
    and stick with one language as well

    miyafushi: 9a7, 3aleehom bil3afya itha hathe hwayat’hom, bas itqarneenhom ib amreecan?

    americans dont play kuwaiti music and talk arabic using our slangs, unlike this vid with “hunnies…beaaauuutiiifuuuul…pick up girls man…wassup hommie…”

    u get my point? chithe ga3den eshawhoon il sim3a more 6al 3umrech :P

  17. 17. mathew | August 13th, 2007 at 10:47 pm

    silly kids! and wheres this love street ?
    directions please ! :D

  18. 18. hmmm... | August 13th, 2007 at 10:56 pm

    the jeans, the t-shirt, the hat, the filipino, the accent, the “diwaniya”. why?? couldnt stand watching the rest. so annoying

  19. 19. lfc-q8 | August 13th, 2007 at 11:34 pm

    loved the gerrard goal :) ynwa

  20. 20. izgerty | August 13th, 2007 at 11:36 pm

  21. 21. N. | August 13th, 2007 at 11:40 pm

    lol, that was funny! :)

  22. 22. zaydoun | August 13th, 2007 at 11:53 pm

    damn that was lame

  23. 23. DJ X|FADER | August 14th, 2007 at 12:30 am

    i think the O.C is even worse

  24. 24. Angelo | August 14th, 2007 at 12:32 am

    Couple of thoughts:

    1- I consider this an insult to the “O.C.”, the best teenage drama on TV.

    2- The accent was just horrible.

    3- Seeing the Kuwait Towers made me miss Kuwait.

    4- I think they should have come up with a better script than this one…hell, even I can come with something.

    5- Rap Music…ehhh

  25. 25. Loved it | August 14th, 2007 at 12:43 am

    Awesome. Creative and perfect piss take of the average Kuwaiti life. Saw this a while back, still funny on a re-run.

  26. 26. Armani Exchanger | August 14th, 2007 at 1:10 am

    I know that guy who said ” Etqi6 el raqim” LOL i work with this guy … Farhaan YOU ROCK! :P

  27. 27. Armani Exchanger | August 14th, 2007 at 1:12 am

    Mark: O.C. stand for Ocen City, the TV show … :)

  28. 28. Patrick | August 14th, 2007 at 1:26 am

    lfc-q8: wtf? what does that have to do with this? lol

    Armani: O.C. actually means Orange County, that’s what the TV show stands for :P

  29. 29. Patrick | August 14th, 2007 at 1:29 am

    lfc-q8: nevermind, should’ve watched the video first :P

    YNWA!

  30. 30. Patrick | August 14th, 2007 at 3:48 am

    I think everyone is taking this video too seriously. It’s pretty fun to watch.

  31. 31. fwz | August 14th, 2007 at 8:28 am

    cool i love it wait 4 more

  32. 32. Hilarious | August 14th, 2007 at 8:32 am

    totally agree with Patrick.

    it seems like the video was made with the intent of being cheesy and silly, so why is everyone suprised that it turned out that way..

    its not like they were going for a tragic drama. they were simply rippin on ‘tarqeem’ in kuwait oo how the OC blew up in kuwait and every 3gaidy started watching it.

    Don’t hate on them for actually doin something viewable (script aside, that is)..

  33. 33. khobiz | August 14th, 2007 at 8:53 am

    damn thats some major critisism,
    first of all, this video was made as a hobby/small project

    second of all, it was made to sound cheesy,and as patrick said, everybody is SERIOUSLY taking this video too seriously, grow up, enjoy what ur fellow q8tiz have done,
    and oh yah kuwait is a freakin “an american wannabe infested nation with ppl trying desperatly to display it as a narcotic infested miami…”

    and liverpool sucks !!

    peace

  34. 34. Aromal | August 14th, 2007 at 9:16 am

    Mathew : love street is 2nd ring road..if you drive through this road in the evening you can see all these things..

  35. 35. Muh'd M. Mansour | August 14th, 2007 at 9:26 am

    I like it so much.
    My review:
    The guys were great they really did a great job, they need to work on there both acting and Eglish skills.
    I think they can make the Arabic version of The OC
    I vote 8 out of 10.

  36. 36. Sufius | August 14th, 2007 at 9:49 am

    Listen you sick bunch off critics.. i dont know who died and made you all judges of content. This video was a simple attempt to poke fun at the lifestyle opportunities for the average kuwaiti growing up with no way to get out and socialize.. if you cant get past the humor of the beginning, which I believe is an accurate representation of the youth of Kuwait (have you been to the malls lately), then your perception of Kuwait must be blurred

  37. 37. Mark | August 14th, 2007 at 9:52 am

    ^^^ I am guessing thats the guy behind the movie

  38. 38. Sufius | August 14th, 2007 at 9:58 am

    no but i know these guys.. and they were just doin it for fun.. they were testing out their video making skills and trying to make a comment instead of sitting on their PCs all day commenting on other ppls crap without ever having made a creative gesture in their life that is worth sharing…

  39. 39. Sufius | August 14th, 2007 at 10:00 am

    would you rather these ppl made a video about the Geeez culture or resorted to it like the majority of the youth of kuwait?

  40. 40. Mark | August 14th, 2007 at 10:03 am

    So you are saying this video is not cheesy?

  41. 41. Sufius | August 14th, 2007 at 10:14 am

    its cheesy as hell… i didnt say anything about that.. Im not talking to those critics.. Im talking to the haters that are picking at every little item in the video… the hat? the jeans? the tshirt? thats what those idiots wear here.. the music? its whats on the radio here.. its the music of the Geezi Nation. The slang terminology? typical. The American Wannabees? Also typical (although its just a product of Americanization.. You put a Korean kid in an American school, you dont expect him to americanize?)

    bin-salim: chill the hell out, u dont know what ur talking about it seems.. the day americans talk kuwaiti and listen to arabic music is the day kuwait becomes a cultural hotspot to the world… i really see u working hard to achieve that..
    and Angelo: get a life.. the OC? this is a mockery of the OC.. and if you didnt figure that out, then ur in the wrong place..

  42. 42. Anonymous | August 14th, 2007 at 11:58 am

    I can’t believe this has become a subject of debate.

  43. 43. Pi | August 14th, 2007 at 12:02 pm

    a friend of mine is behind it, not
    sufius… he visited and thot of doing such thing and with my skills i helped !
    think my skills r bad, but all this u saw was unscripted, so during editing… magic had to be dont.
    so participate guys, and dont playaaaaaaa hate.
    all i wanna say, u guys taking this too seriously, and whoever commented on the camera angles,,, thanx man.
    and yeah 1 more thing, why dont u guys come up with something ? so this side of the MoC can criticize !!!

    but anyways,,, the real deal is coming soon. stay put

    cheers

  44. 44. Rooneyy | August 14th, 2007 at 1:22 pm

  45. 45. mathew | August 14th, 2007 at 10:06 pm

    @Aromal, thanks for the location :)
    now all i have to do is get a Ferrari cap and cruise for chicks ! :D

  46. 46. Loved it | August 15th, 2007 at 12:31 am

    Sorry Mark, but that MTC ad you made was Tacky cheese at it’s best!!

    Everything ok ok ok?….Ffs…rubbish.

  47. 47. Mark | August 15th, 2007 at 12:33 am

    duh no really?? Of course it was cheesy!

  48. 48. Feras | August 15th, 2007 at 2:54 pm

    I really think that was a job well done.. their message was very clear, and for those who are having a hard time trying to figure out that this is a spoof of the show O.C., then get out of kuwait..LOL.. sorry just had to say it since its being said all the time.. anyway back to being serious.. i really enjoyed the amateur video making skills, the acting wasn’t great, but at least these guys were gutsy enough to do it. fellas, great job, and good luck.. anyone have any contact info.. i would like to get in touch with the person who made the video.

  49. 49. KUWAIT- | August 15th, 2007 at 4:00 pm

    That video sucked. Advice to the guys, Geta life and stop acting like your americans.

  50. 50. Maya | August 15th, 2007 at 5:17 pm

    Man! I thought I was screwed up but nuh uh! That guy needs prayers! *runs off to hire some nuns*

  51. 51. Bu Nasser | August 15th, 2007 at 8:11 pm

    Plaaaaaaaaayaaaaaa…. Haaaaaaaateeeers…

    So chill to the next episode!

  52. 52. Angelo | August 15th, 2007 at 10:51 pm

    @Sufius

    OK, first of all, I have a life and a damn good one too, so please learn how to argue properly instead of bashing people. Second, my comment was intended to criticize the comparison. What I mean is that video does not represent or mock the O.C. whatsoever. I need you to tell me who was supposed to be Ryan, Seth, Merissa, and Summer. If you mean the two chicks and two dudes in the car, then it is really a dumb comparison. For example, if I was expecting a mockery of Friends than I would expect 3 guys and 3 girls sitting in a coffee shop or an apartment, get it?

    Sorry Mark. I hate to use your blog for “replying” purposes but I had to.

  53. 53. ruckerz | August 16th, 2007 at 1:32 am

    Angelo,

    just stop talking, please… like go lock yourself in a dark room and stay quiet.

    Cheers

  63. 63. J | August 20th, 2007 at 12:54 pm

    I thought the video was a riot!

    Yes it was cheesey but i guess that was the whole point. If you didnt think it was cheesey then you misses the point.

    Good job guys and looking forward to the sequel…
    maybe something along the lines of heroes??
    fly from the abraj? or telecommunication tower.
