V&V for all...
Can someone do me a favour and bring my three "Spinal Tap" reviews to the same level? The punchline has always been one ahead of the others, but it's funnier if they stay together. Would be most grateful (*cough* votes) to the person who'd help me out.  |

V&V'd.
Long time since there's been a round with so many good entries, special kudos for:
 Experiment with dino sours (Jurassic Park): aahaa, muahaha
Turks commit monsterous plagarism (Turkish Young Frankenstein): Whipper (this just so perfectly decsribes how this film was made)
Weigh too much sex (Roly Poly Gang Bang): Yukon
Good going all round, gang

V&Ved.
Nice to see Koli back. Koli, it wasn't quite the same without you.
Mind you, I'm not saying it was any worse, just not quite the same.

Thanks Choccy, going to nose around your reviews now. Any takers? |

Er - maybe, if you explain it. I've no idea what it refers to, and I always thought of myself as a Spinal Tap fan  |

OK - I've just voted for Nigel Tufnel: Ice.
There is a line in the film by Derek Smalls where he explains the difference between the two leaders of the band, David and Nigel, by calling the former "fire" and the latter "ice." He then thinks for a moment and adds that he is "lukewarm water." It might be in the deleted scenes, mind; I can't remember.
The Spinal Tap DVD is one of the very few ones with extras that are any good. There is a bit called "A Conversation with Marty DiBergi," where he goes (and I am paraphrasing but the punchline): "I did a lot of commercials, after which I had my first big break which was directing Kramer vs Kramer vs Godzilla." I piss myself every time (though that has more to do with my chronic incontinence).

Thanks Ali - just voted for ten of your best.
The "Lukewarm Water" line is in the released film - it's one of my favourites. You're right about the DVD - most of the deleted scenes could have made it into the main film with no problem at all. And the "in character" commentary is hilarious as well. "None more black". |

Actually, it's not that much of a coincidence. It's a well-known counterintuitive result that you only need to get 24 or so people together before chances are better than 50-50 a pair of them share a birthday.
Happy birthday.
But surely the 24 thing is for any unspecified pair. Given a specific person mentioning his birthday (chazbo) or given being a specific person (you), it is still a coincidence if another person out of 24 has that birthday. (I realise that you are probably a mathematician and I am asking for trouble... ) |
