What makes you grin? Antidote to grumpy thread

I know I’m 20 years early, but I just saw this online. It’s in a disabled spot, have the cunts in PT Cruisers moved on?

 

I’m going to ignore the window bollocks, I don’t think that the car bra is going to work... and what exactly are his fake vents cooling?

What a total piece of shit.

 

The Citroen, that is.  Probably the driver too.

It's possible that's a motobility car? Anyway those bays take a couple of years to paint out once the entitlement to them is gone (round here anyway)

Watching Oliver! with my four year old daughter, she was utterly transfixed during the " Who will by?" scene.

Is this the perfect film?

Very good, but Mary poppins is perfect ( if you ignore dick van dykes cockenany accent).

What more could you ask for!

Decent dialogue and a plot?

 

Anyway, the answer is always Smokey And The Bandit.

Not suitable for children which I assumed was the premise.

Runaway bride getting disrobed in the car to start with,

 

If not children friendly fare then there’s a lot of choice.

Nonsense, ITV used to show a sanitised one when I was a kid with comically-bad dubbing over the swearing. Almost as comical as the dubbed engine for the Trans-Am.

I have seen Oliver! many times, but I never seem to tire of it, the songs are great, the cast is great, Fagin is magnificent.

Perhaps the only weak link is the lad that plays Oliver.

 

Smokey and the Bandit is great, mainly for the Sheriff. But it wouldn't hold my daughters attention for a second.

Dick van Dyke was on tv not that long ago laughing about his own accent when he filmed that! I’m sure it was on the news.

The plot is to kill everything. Anything surviving gets blown up!

I was at the Premier for 'Oliver' when I were a lad, how's that for a claim to fame?

Google says that was 1968!

Bonus points here for the yellow number plate bolt to make it look like DEK rather than DEH!

Ha,I went to see that in the cinema in Swansea on the opening weekend. Iirc, it was mainly interspersed with people shouting "that's my house", "that's me mam" etc.

 

Dinky-dooey railway indeed :D

That’s a documentary though, isn’t it?

We're you outside trying to pickpockets or stood there with a bowl asking for more?

^^^ that was both funny and a shame! The caravan, not your arm.

 

If you want a great verging on classic movie, with well, most things that make a great Expendables type movie, but with a strong plot, try 'Layer Cake'. It is said it got Daniel Craig the bond films (and has a much better plot than any of them!)

As reported on the News thread, I hoped yesterday would be Grinding Monday. It turned out to be Tickling Monday, though I was only taking the sparkly stick to test pieces and no, I'm not posting pics 'cos most of it was bird shit...

 

The grin? I attempted due diligence and put my ancient welding rods in the oven for a half hour before taking them out. The expected disdain from Mrs CW did not materialise. (That's not the grin). Plus I was glad to find that they didn't release any nasty rod-type odours to contaminate the oven. (No, that's still not the grin). When I sparked up several of the rods, it turns out the oven had contaminated them....

 

They smelled of cinnamon.  :-D

It was! I was 8 or 9. I haven't watched the film since. We got to go to the premier because one of my Mums 'boyfriends' had money in it (producer?) and it was an experience. You have to remember, I am effin' old!

I was at the other end, if you saw a ginger beard within an 'Van Helsing/Underworld' outfit then that was me.

 

Damn good wasn't it? We now appear to be trying to find out when the other parts of the championship are to plan trips around.

If you're effing old I must qualify as time expired coffin dodger (1946). But a good year, like wine vintages?

Your honour, it’s a steering lock and in no way did I mean to wallop the prick who cut me off.

^it was self defense your honour he was threatening with violence and that he was going to kill me then reached into his pocket as if to grab a knife or even worse a gun so scared for my safety I grabbed the first thing to hand to protect life and limb and knocked him to the ground using what i believed to be reasonable force in the situation
