Francis who now? (btw, an American not knowing any given Brit actor is not a sign of ignorance; it's the default state of the entire universe) |

Both die in the source novels, but not in the TV/movie versions. |

WEll done indeed Mr Forth. 10 points go to you. Not only did they both die in the source novels, but the original authors went on to write the novelisations of the sequels... |

Hmm... clever indeed.... Alright then. A plane crashes right on the border of two countries. On which side to they bury the survivors? No, that's not a trick question, btw. The two countries are "Buried Alive Land" and "All Survivors Must Die-opia." |

D'oh! They don't bury the survivors ... only those who didn't survive. Silly billy! |

The running joke with the sparrows and the coconuts in Holy Grail only happened because they didn't have the budget for real horses. That has to be the best creative outcome to derive from a limited budget in the history of cinema |

(I shall ignore Caroline's comment, praying she was just being obvious....) I agree, Weber: an example of how a bigger budget might have actually ruined a movie! (er... maybe that's not so common after all, the more I think of big-budget Hollywood garbage...) |

"(I shall ignore Caroline's comment, praying she was just being obvious....)" Me? I'm always obvious, Craig. You should know that by now. |
