Mampers new Bambi review. There also was that 'Yearling' movie.
Edit: Make that any mention of a deer being shot in Bambi
Uh... I don't get why there's a problem with this... Though it happens off-screen, Bambi's mommy was indeed shot, no?
Indeed. And later in the film, Bambi himself was shot too, although not killed - his father came along and ordered him to get up in order to escape the forest fire.
But I think Titan's point is that the deer-gets-shot scenario is not unique to Bambi: it's also in The Yearling (1946).
Whether that renders all the 'shot deer' reviews generic is for Benj to decide - the 'how many films a review could apply to before it's classed as generic' question is not new, and will continue to rumble on... |

Whilst true, I don't think any of us (including benj) believe that a review applying to two films would qualify it as generic.
To my mind, a review referring to a deer being shot is 100% bona fide for Bambi |

Nah- not many films I can think of which are reknowned for a deer being shot, so I don't feel this is a blatant generic. |

Tori's review to LA MALA EDUCACION:
French schoolboys get abused.
Spot the mistake...
Update: I notice this post has been ignored.
No doubt French Schoolboys do get abused, but not in this film, as its Spanish, with not a French schoolboy in sight, not as far as I ecole recall.
Muchas Gracias. |

The execution in Dead Man Walking is carried out by lethal injection - not by electric chair. But there are a number of reviews based on 'electric', 'shock', or 'fry':
rand (x2)
Jon Bandit
Palefox
Spontaneous Human Combustion
and possibly Benager |

| Although its a funny review, "RobinHook: Men in Tights" for Hook looks like its sneaking in a fifth word. |

The reference to football here
http://www.fwfr.com/display.asp?ID=12124
suggests that toonbug is referring to the 1978 'Heaven Can Wait' which has nothing to do with the Ameche film but is a remake of 'Here Comes Mr. Jordan'. |

Also, jeep's review for this film should read "Angel", I think. |

And luckynmbrfour's Modovar should be Almodovar.
Phew!

The Fatal Glass of Beer has plenty of reviews that don't seem to be related to the movie. There's no death in it from what I can see.  |
