Date: 2014-09-24 11:51 pm (UTC)I do like that dialogue; I am not directly familiar with the source canon, but I recognize and appreciate the tone. That's a fun piece, and I clearly need to go find me some movies.
Thanks! And yes, you need to watch these movies! The quality declines steadily after the second one, but all of them have their high points. (The first one is the best, though.) Do you listen to the Thrilling Adventure Hour podcast? (If not, you'd probably love it and should check it out.) Frank and Sadie Doyle are very obviously based on Nick and Nora from these movies.
I think I actually know
since I myself am only middle-aged, you certainly do not qualify as old.
I would like you to tell that to my back, please. Also my knees. And my ankles.
And I don't think "dorky" is a legally permissible descriptor for anyone who's actually pursuing figure skating even at a serious-recreational level.
Heh. Some would argue that that particular quality only increases the appropriateness of the word...
