its ok Bou. its not whale brain stuff.years ago it was used but not any longer. its banned im most countries these days.
though why you thougth it was whale brain i dont know.its actually a bull bi product. but not brain.
if your still stumped re read it very carefully.
SPERMACTI

False memory syndrome or did I read that Resyk was how they made Munce?

Bou, Nice one with the tree thing, Wished we'd done that, but after 36 hours labour and some frights we were happy just to have the 1st sprog, second was a bit easier,

As Harrison himself said they took a pretty serious book on overcrowding and population growth and turned into one about shock-horror cannibalism!!! That?s Hollywood for you?

...and they took that other blokes film about race, inequality and the social order and made it about monkeys...

[Queen Firey-Bou]

ahem..
pendantic mode alert.....

spermaceti. white waxy substance found in the head of the sperm whale., used for ointments & candles etc. (oxford dictionary)

As an aside, for about 15 years I prounounced "Resyk" as "Resk". Then again, I once thought you pronounced "Gnasher" as "ginasher".

[Oddboy]

Mr too Dr X, on both counts.
And I thought Hershey was Hershley
And Nemis, and McNutty and countless other boo-boos that I aught to be ashamed of.

I'd also like to admit to only realising last month that Mark Harrison wasn't Simon Harrison.

[The Enigmatic Dr X]

Glad to hear that OB. I feel vindicated. Anyone else want of 'fess up?

[Devons Daddy]

is it the Cursed as in i wish a bad thing on you or the curs-ed as used in the dredd movie.this one has been playin in on my mind since 95.
whats our decsion on this then?

lurkers are welcome to voice there opionon.

[chopper666]

okay will fess up here. I too had the Gnasher problem and thought that it was Gansher for some reason, but then again I am dyslexic. Though over the years I have heard some real corkers, included someone calling Dredd, D read (close as I can get it down), Hershey as Heresy and Cal as Cale. People say the funniest things dont we :)

It's gotta be cursed, as in "I was a bad thing on you". It's a wasteland that had a bad thing happen to it! Jemes Earl Jones' voice over is just melodramtic nonsense.

Two comedy mis-pronunciations I know of:
A kid at my school who used to call Darth Vader, "Dark Vater".
A guy who used to hang around in my local comic shop who thought Boba Fett was called "Bobby Fart", and no, he wasnt joking - he really was that dim.

I used to think Arkansas was pronounced Ar-Kansas but I was 6... also at the age of 7 or so reading the Star Wars novelisation before seeing the fim I had a very strange idea of how Obi-Wan Kenobi was pronounced.. Ob Wan Ker nob or something similar

And how come the pronunciation of Tatoonie has changed during the films themselves!
