RIP Columbo

Just one more question, ma’am.

I will raise a pint to Mr. Falk tonight.

Serpentine!

God, I LOVE that movie!!!  The remake totally sucked.

I loved him in Colombo, but really the thing that cemented him in the heart of my generation was the grandfather in Princess Bride.

You have to be the first person I’ve ever heard admit that they actually watched Princess Bride. :smiley:

Awesome movie… not sure if there’s some stigma with the word princess, but most people I know were secure enough to get over that when they turned 12.

I’ve watched it but have always been to soused to finish. Seriously, every single time.

…and now I’m watching Stargate SG1 in French. What?

SACRE BLEU!

Meh… it’s an unfettered moment of awesomeness from child hood and there’s a relative paucity of folks my age who I can’t say “Hello, my name in Indigo Montoya” and have them finish the line.

the movie was good, but another case where the book was way better. there are so many awesome things from the book… my favorites are the Dread Pirate Roberts & the ROUS

You have to be the first person I’ve heard of who hasn’t watched and loved it.  I’m sorry for you…

I watched Columbo on a regular basis.

Peter was fantastic.

R.I.P.

Great book.  I’ve watched the movie several times although I agree the book was even better.
“You killed my father.  Prepare to die.”
I named a Russian Imperial Stout “Rodents of Unusual Size” once but nobody got it.

I’m now officially embarrassed. I got this mixed up with The Princess Diaries, which was silly and sucked. I haven’t seen the Falk movie, so I won’t comment on it.

He’s only in it a little bit, but I think it’s a classic.

So, ironically, now you’re the only guy I’ve heard admit that they actually watched the Princess Diaries  :wink:

Oh, well in that case, I’m in total agreement!

Oh jeez, I’m so sorry for you having to sit through that one.

No sweat… it’s an awesome movie with a Princess, a pirate, a giant and a revenge driven Spanish swordsman. And a grandfather and grandson.
