No-one else could have made the line "Dead pop stars rotting in the studio" sound oddly sexy!

I remember first hearing that on the wonderful & much-missed John Peel show on R1 and wondering what the heck it was. I bought it straight after (and still have it on vinyl).

I caught that same double-bill and found Chariots of Fire to be bloated nonsense. Nice score, though. As you say, Gregory's Girl was great fun and made up for the rather crap sister feature.

I found Chariots Of Fire to be hugely overrated when I first saw it, and still think the same now. Ian Holm steals the film (as ever) but it's an all round slog for me.

It may be herecy but I can't stand Vangelis's music either. A synthesized theme in a 1920's film.

I thought you may be interested in this. Apparantly The Looney Tunes are coming back! First with three cartoons (in 3D) before films in the cinema, and back on the TV too.

I enjoy the old school LT stuff but i reckon these new 'toons will be embarrasingly PC and shorn of the blackly comic violence we remember from days gone by. Many of us of a certain age recall vintage Sylvester And Tweety but how many actually preferred the horribly watered down The Sylvester And Tweety Mysteries? I rest my case.

My own fave slices of animation from the good 'ol days consists of:

Mr.T
MASK
He-Man
Kissyfur
Thundarr
Ulysses 31
Silverhawks
Thundercats
Wacky Races
Laurel & Hardy
Inspector Gadget
The Space Sentinels
Battle Of The Planets
and Spider Man And His Amazing Friends among a few others.

I also liked the Happy Days cartoon and those wonderful Marvel Comics shorts from the '60s. The Pink Panther animation was great too but i actually enjoyed The Inspector 'toons more.
