looking for a gif

Postby Smunkeeville » Sat Jun 27, 2009 9:03 pm

It was from a movie, but like a b-movie I think or possibly an after school special. It had a guy with a 70's perm-fro walking into a room and looking shocked, only his look of shock lasted like way too long......

I neeeeed it. Does anyone have it?

:lol: at the gif.

Did anybody else read the thread title at first as "looking for a gf"? I thought Smunkee was making a major life choice there.

Italian spider man?

If so certainly not from the 70's

It is a 2008 film, and highest budgeted film in European history. Basically the pinnacle of the European film industry.

And we worked damn hard on it.

We had to stop guffawing at the US for, like, a full five minutes.

Well, I didn't know what it was from and I hadn't seen it in a long while so I was trying to remember what it might have been. It looks very 70's in the clip.

I googled Italian Spider man and it says it's still in production so how could I have known? :meh:

well they have show 10 episodes of it so far.
It was too long to show on one sitting, so they are releasing it 3 hours at a time.
Sort of like V but longer.

Only in Europe and a few select US theaters to see if it had a chance to sell tickets.
They also put it on youtube and sent to the US DVD's which didn't sell. I heard Italian leaders like to give them to US presidents as gifts though.
Largest grossing film in European history. Total flop in the US.
