December 6, 201113 yr BlueSkies - your member page doesn't give your age, but as you have posted elsewhere that you don't remember cup finals before 2005, I think it is fair to assume that you are quite young, and therefore probably not born when the Clint Eastwood spaghetti westerns were made. I have great memories of the 1970 cup final, and remember going to see the Clint Eastwood films when they first came out. I therefore don't feel I need you to instruct me on iconic moments in film history. When I need information on that, I usually ask Maksimov.
December 6, 201113 yr I think the boy might not understand the meaning of the word "iconic", nor the relevance of the Good, Bad and Ugly clip and what it means. hey-ho, education these days ain't what it used to be! Still, it does tick away the moments that make up a dull day!

The ability to appreciate and understand something does not have the requirement of being alive at the time to make it true.
December 6, 201113 yr What a ridiculous comment. The ability to appreciate and understand something does not have the requirement of being alive at the time to make it true. I didn't say that. What I said was that I didn't need you to instruct me on it. You posted an interesting YouTube. I followed it with another interesting one on the theme of Time. You then felt entitled to rebuke me for having done so. I don't think I'm the one making ridiculous comments.
December 6, 201113 yr When I need information on that, I usually ask Maksimov. Thanks for the compliment. I'll have to post an iconic movie scene of these days.
December 6, 201113 yr BlueSkies, It's not so much when you were born as how good the clip is. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6lvwZgq4ydc&feature=related
December 10, 201113 yr Moments lost in time... http://youtu.be/YpGuewn8M8I Possibly my favourite ever film, and that scene is incredible. Its great to see just how well that film stands up even now.
December 10, 201113 yr Possibly my favourite ever film, and that scene is incredible. Its great to see just how well that film stands up even now. And to think Rutger Hauer improvised the "tears in rain" monologue. It's one of the most famous movie lines of all time, and it wasn't even scripted.
December 10, 201113 yr Great movie, great scene. And to re-emphasize what Dkw said, I was recently thinking about this film when talking about movies that had stood the test of time without being too dated. I was also thinking of the Highlander.
December 10, 201113 yr I had to watch Blade Runner recently because I hadn't seen it before (it being a classic I could not miss out on it) and I was....... ......disappointed. It was an okay movie.
December 10, 201113 yr And to think Rutger Hauer improvised the "tears in rain" monologue. It's one of the most famous movie lines of all time, and it wasn't even scripted. I was amazed when I found that out, it was a brilliant bit of improvisation. Moos, you take that back, you take that back right now.
December 10, 201113 yr I'm amazed Moos doesn't fancy Rutger Hauer! P.S. 2019 is getting very close! Edited December 10, 201113 yr by moi
December 10, 201113 yr 2019 is getting very close! 2015 is even closer. It's just four years and we'll have shoes that tie their laces automatically, jackets that dry theirselves and adjust their size according to the wearer's bodysize, and... AND! Hovering skateboards!

December 31, 201113 yr a memory from way back Fantastic. Zorba was popular during my formative years and that music has a strong hold on me. Also like this one:
