Sheesh...sorry I spoke... 🙁 IIRC when a Belgian woman moved into the neighbourhood with her Irish husband many many years ago, my mother told us she spoke fluent Flemish... ✅

nah, ancient legend that there is flemish, hard to eradicate unfortunatly
belgian people have as official languages: Dutch, French and German
the problem is that those who have dutch as first language are from Flanders, the french from Walloon.
so, that makes people think people from flanders speak flemish, but it's dutch
the legend that flemish is a dialect is wrong, if there was, then how come someone from the west of flanders can't understand someone from the east? and no one even bothers trying to understand people from Antwerp...

A production question. In the movie AVTAK, What happened that almost stopped the stunt of May Day jumping off the Eiffel Tower in the beginning of the film? You can find the answer in the disc's SF.

Sorry, I didn't see this question.

I seem to recall that this stunt had to be called off because the Paris authorities feared that it would cause too much disruption, but Broccoli promised to do it in just one take....and he did!

just being a prick like always TR 😉

Reborn Again I'm HELL's Wrath!

Nope. Here's the answer. The morning before, some idiot from the stunt crew jumped off the Eiffle Tower and para-glided down for an adrenline rush, for the shoot the following morning, without permission. This could have caused the shot to be cut from the script, but Broccoli convinced the Paris authorities the idiot didn't do the jump on his authority. The stunt man was fired.

I knew there was some skirmish between Broccoli and the Parisian Godfathers!

yerssot Senior Member

the mayer of Paris is a crook?

The Redeemer Senior Member

No, but the bloody Brocolli's are... 😈

yerssot Senior Member

you want them to quit huh

The Redeemer Senior Member

Well, the way the Bond franchise is going, the sooner they are plucked from their rotten little garden the better for us fans...

Hand the lot over to someone that knows what they're doing. 👆

yerssot Senior Member

cause they use a lot of FX?

The Redeemer Senior Member

No, 'cause they only see the Bond film as a way of making money...churn out any old crap and the Bond fan will come running like a slavering puppy...and that includes me as no matter how many times I've said right, that's the last Bond for me, I still end up seeing the next...

The series needs a hefty dose of new directions, new ideas and a new bloody gang at the helm...😠

yerssot Senior Member

they think like hollywood, always wanting money

The Redeemer Senior Member

Bastads. 😉
