- Wow, I seem to have started a cascade of sorts... I think everyone should
- get the answers to these highly important and frequently-asked questions
- and compile them into some sort of sick FAQ, perhaps for alt.cult-movies
- (after all this thread is verging a little far from MST3K territory, not
- that it doesn't require a similar mindset perhaps).
-
- Anyway, I wanted to mention that "Gunfight at the O.K. Corral" has a truly
- humungous drink-count as well. Well, I've never seen "Who's afraid of
- Virginia Woolf", so maybe I have no idea how bad it is relative to that.
- But I would be amused to compute the probable blood alchohol content of
- Kirk Douglas' character during the course of the movie.
-
- As for the number of shots in Rock Climbing, well, if the original
- compilers of the FAQ don't feel up to it (and I can hardly blame them --
- they did a superhuman job already, really, great work folks!!) give me
- until next week -- I may try to borrow a tape of Lost Continent this
- weekend. If I do, then I'll bring it home, slip into a comfortable pair of
- Colombian shoes, and start counting! Film at 11.
