Well?

I voted the first one but i'm not entirely sure as i've only casually watched the movie once and thought it was rubbish.

Pookie · 08.30.2006, 08:17 AM

Too difficult. I'll have to think about that, possibly re-watch the film and drag the thread back to answer long after it's been forgotten.

I'm sure watching the final five minutes would enable you to make an informed poll choice.

Isn't there like a grappling hook in the bus? I reckon they use that to pull the gold towards them.

Tokolosh · 08.30.2006, 02:06 PM

Sorry, haven't seen it.

Hip Priest · 08.30.2006, 05:49 PM

No need to apologise. It's a fun film, though.

Cantankerous · 08.30.2006, 05:54 PM

steal things, of course. they are italian after all.
aren't they?

Hip Priest · 08.30.2006, 06:06 PM

No. It's about an British gang going to Italy to steal from them.

Danny Himself · 08.30.2006, 07:13 PM

I used to think Charlie would just get the gold, piece by piece, from the back. But now I know it'd probably make the bus fall off the cliff if he went back.

They all put their jackets together and make a large lasso, which they throw around the gold and pull it towards the front of the bus.

It was the 60s, and no-one noticed because there were like 52727 car crashes in the movie, as well as about... 2 near-sex scenes involving hot Italian chicks.
