Someone in my office has never heard of, let alone seen, Cannonball Run.
I feel old, shocked and appalled all at once.FCN 2-4.

CJ - a typo in your post mate - that should read 'two tonne, 30-40 litre rucksack'
Seriously, he said he had 'work' in it - he's either a bricklayer or makes things out of lead.
Also, to go back a page or two, my brain is now singing 'Sprocket Man' to me.... 'I'm a sprocket man.... sprocket maaaaaaaaaaan, burning out my fuse up here alone...'
And I've had a lovely day in Paris, cycling around town scalping froggies on my velib... mind you, I don't think they were playing - not renowned for their warmongering ways....

I'm 26, what the hell is cannonball run?
Is that the film with all them old school cars and they race from one side of America to another?
Don't they call that the Gumball Rally?Food Chain number = 4
A true scalp is not only overtaking someone but leaving them stopped at a set of lights. As you, who have clearly beaten the lights, pummels nothing but the open air ahead. ~ 'DondaddyD'. Player of the Unspoken Game0 -

DDD - please buy it from Amazon at once. When you watch it, you will appreciate that it is one of the finest films of all time. Along with Flash Gordon.

FLASH aaaaaahhhhhh ooohhhhhh saviour of the universe!
Was about the only thing good about that film. What was with the snails that they tortured Ming's slutty daughter with or when he started playing American Football in Mings court and Dale started cheering. I've never KNOWN such cheese!
Now Little Shops of Horrors or Bugsy Malone, now those are great movies some of the finest ever.
And I still maintain that nothing was sadder than when Optimus Prime died in Transformers the (now animated) movie.
I'm curious now, how old are you CJCP and Corri, in fact how old is everyone?Food Chain number = 4

That's it - get out of here Sprog. You need to get yourself heducated.

Don't come back until you've watched it.
tell me you've seen "Zulu"
Edited to add.
The best thing about Flash Gordon is Brian Blessed as Voltan, with wings, smacking bad guys around the head with a feck off great big mace.

Well I'm 25 and whilst I haven't seen Cannonball Run **ducks** I might like to add "yet" to that as I'll obviously have to go watch it.
Little Shop of Horrors wasn't bad, Bugsy Malone is still a good movie and yes Optimus dying in the animated movie was very sad, but partly made up for by uber cool planet transformer.
As for movies from our youth I have to confess me and my (younger) brother where practically world perfect on Hudson Hawk :-P0 -

Speaking of Brian Blessed has anyone seen that new eeleb reality show with him as a dog trainer? I got this really funny image in my head of him yelling "SIT!" at the dog and it just kinda cowering in the corner with it's paws over it's ears!0 -
I've really enjoyed watching BB ham it up in the BBC3 series The Wrong Door recently.
Playing a train pirate. Twisted.
Incidentally he once saw ghostly nuns in the Orchestra pit at the Grand Opera House in York, mid performance, it quite shook him up.
Possibly "real" ghosts as there used to be a tunnel under the site of the theatre from the nearby plague hospital to the river Ouse, nuns would take the dead to the river for disposal.
Now then, what forum was this?"Impressive break"

Actually now having seen the link, I have infact seen that film, either this year or last year. It was humerous, think it had Jackie Chan in it (fighting bikers).Food Chain number = 4

Ahem.
I think your eyes deceived you young man.
The socks were black.
The shoes were blue.
And the lenses were a strong shade of orange.
But your forgot the red gloves and red arm warmers.
Otherwise, I think there was a little more information in that post than was necessary.
BTW, it's a blue week this week, in case you were wondering, which I know you were.0 -

Ooooo Greg fight, GREG FIGHT!
Honestly, he probably wanted to look like the Flash, some kind of superhero. Your dissing on the man's superhero clothes!
But seriously that ensemble of rouge is beyond all levels of gay! Its so unbelievably gay, I don't actually believe it looks gay or gay people would find it attractive (not knowing what gay people find attractive I'm just speculating).
The only conclusion I can come to is that Greg66 was probably going for the 'I look so impossibly gay, I'm not actually gay' look.
What I also reckon led to this 'ensemble of rouge' is that Greg66 woke up one morning and thought "how gay can I look". And subsequently broke all records of gayness.
Red glasses with red lenses. Why in this life or the next would you wear red lenses, what purpose does looking at the world in a hue of red hold? I struggle with having yellow or blue tinted lenses. Red, RED!?
Damn that's gay!Food Chain number = 4

It's true though that wearing that rig completely out-gays any hint of gayness. It's so uber that it's unter.
