    NOTHING like the Princess Diaries!!

     

    well i know that now! might have to route around for a se dvd, well it will be 20 years old next year (scary :o ). and you know how dvd firms are

     

    Very Monthy Python-esque, and quite a who's who of people you recognise but you're not sure where from :lol:

     

    i suppose if you knew those people at the time.

     

    however peter falk seems to be on every cover of screen international lately with this film company trying to flog this oldie film and fred savage i know as he was pointed out in that mooseport film where he's the president's advisor

     

    Cast overview, first billed only:

    Cary Elwes .... Westley

    Mandy Patinkin .... Inigo Montoya

    Chris Sarandon .... Prince Humperdinck

    Christopher Guest .... Count Tyrone Rugen

    Wallace Shawn .... Vizzini

    André the Giant .... Fezzik (as Andre the Giant)

    Fred Savage .... The Grandson

    Robin Wright Penn .... Buttercup/The Princess Bride (as Robin Wright)

    Peter Falk .... The Grandfather

    Peter Cook .... The Impressive Clergyman

    Mel Smith .... The Albino

    Carol Kane .... Valerie

    Billy Crystal .... Miracle Max

    Anne Dyson .... The Queen

    Margery Mason .... The Ancient Booer

     

    I saw the end of it. seemed alright. not seen it before, thinking it might be like the Princess Diaries. quite an old film now?

     

    however maybe you should have posted this in the retro lounge if its a film and a book, would have been better than all those this day on top of the pops threads.

    We only have a WH Smith in my town plus one small independent store which gave up on singles long ago.

     

    I order any singles from HMV online but find them a bit slow to deliver at times.

     

    you mean yuo DONT have a tescos?

    Anyone see E4's new piss funny show where a bunch of lads who used to be in bands have to pretend to be a girl band. havent laughed for that long since i first discovered Snakes On A Plane. if you thought lisa scott lee was car crash tv, you aint seen nothing yet :lol: :dance: :lol:

     

    however at the start it saud that manager Nathan Moore was in a successful boyband called Worlds Apart in the 1990s. wondering if there were any fans of him from then.

    Anything that takes that awful D4L down more than 10 places is fine in my book!

     

    maybe it would have been a bigger hit but for the parental controls on most 12 year olds computers stopped them getting their hands on such filth :lol: :lol:

    Not in a LONG time but... they aren't similar at all. The shows from the 60's were so silly and ridiculous and there were jokes and songs. Batman and Robin tried to be so serious and wise. So did Batman Forever, although I didn't hate that one quite as much.

     

    it looks like you've got someone from batman in your avatar :lol: :lol: scary woman

    I've got to admit that I really like the cartoon based genre but at the moment there just making a whole load of c**p ones like Chicken Little and Shark Tale, and thinking big name starts can get them high up the box office when it can but the reviews for the films ar awful.

     

    i like cartoons (especially Spirited Away, Howl's etc and other animation things like Wallace and Gromit and Corpse Bride), however it seem that studios are just gonna go overboard and rush out substandard stuff

    What about Aneka Japanese Boy :D

     

    08/08/1981 Aneka Japanese Boy 1 60-19-4-{1}-2-3-6-13-21-34-49-62->12

    07/11/1981 Aneka Little Lady 50 64-{50}-59-70->4

     

    however the first one in the book (a number one followed by a non-top 20 record is), which might be shocking for some. ABBA with Waterloo which was followed by Ring Ring number 32

    They had 10 hits in the 60s including 2 #1s and a #2.

    They were a 5 piece band at this time - Barry, Robin & Maurice Gibb - Colin Peterson (drummer), Vince Melouney (lead guitar)

    The hits were:

    1967 - New York Mining Disaster 1941 - #12

    1967 - To Love Somebody - #41

    1967 - Massachusettes - #1

    1967 - World - #9

    1968 - Words - #8

    1968 - Jumbo - #25

    1968 - I've Gotta Get A Message To You - #1

    1969 - First Of May - #6

    1969 - Tomorrow Tomorrow - #23

    1969 - Don't Forget To Remember - #2

     

    They then split for a short time and then became a 3 piece band

    After the split in 1969 Robin had a #2 solo hit with Saved By The Bell.

     

    however i was right about 1 thing! the only 1980s record by the bee gees anyone will know is the one that was on this morning You win again which was followed up by the number 51 smash hit ESP (and yes i have looked in the book :lol:)
