I have to second Reginald the Great here, SlapShot captures that odd moment when full on pimp fashion was OK for working class white hockey players. The clothes and the music are as '70s as it gets. You haven't truly been entertained until you see Paul Newman in an ankle length white fur trench coat with green…

I never understand how other musicians can give him any respect - my mind still burns with the image of him screaming some inadible nonsense while striking poses in a black leather kilt at one of the RockNRoll Hall of Fame shows.

Then who are these guys ?

You mean the biblical times where everyone was at least brown ? There are no white people in the bible my friend.

and of course - sound !

Yes indeed, "The Wolf of Wall Street" on Christmas ! Because nothing says 'holiday cheer' like a movie that opens up with a wide screen shot of Leonardo snorting lines of coke off a hooker's ass.

Ladies and gentlemen, please know that those responsible for sacking the people who have just been sacked have been sacked

There is a google add-on that will fool Netflix into thinking you are logging in from a UK account. I was able to watch the final season of Breaking Bad months before it was released on the US Netflix. It's also free !

Please exit through the troll door to the left and let the spiked door hit you in the ass on the way out. Thank you. Next !

Probably so, but the famous beachside'riots' did happen and the tension was nicely dramatized in Quadrophenia (as was the pill use for the mods). See the section here title 'physical conflicts': http://en.wikipedia.org/wik…

Fight the oppressive corporatist lube mongers !!. We must all switch to locally produced lube to save our precious planet.

Tony Soprano and the boys, just so long as I don't have to pick up the check then kick the waiter to death because we gave him a 67 cent tip on a 1700 dollar tab and he had the balls to complain about it.

Secondhand Lions is a really sweet movie with wonderful performances by Michael Caine and Robert Duvall as now elderly 'uncles' who were once towering GA Henty sized heroes in real life.

and Stubby Kaye ! (probably best known as Nicely-Nicely in "Guys and Dolls" for his performance of 'Sit Down You're Rockin' The Boat'.

James at his coolest and most natural in the funk era:

Every chess game ever played in a movie and TV show is always two moves from checkmate (which almost never happens in real life between experienced players because you resign before the ax falls), and the loser will always look puzzled as if this is their first game ever and he/she did not see it coming. e.g. Judd…

That mystery may have been solved:
