Most movies are dumbed down to the lowest common denominator. We'll see.....

Thats because your not Canadian.

Let's hear it. But I don't want to hear why they didn't do it. I want to hear more specifically what Coe and Ovett did and whether the subsequent generations ever tried it.

Well I can't wait to bump this thread when it is released, and we'll discuss how great it is. I'd SO love it to be great. But hey.....name ONE great running movie!And....you know....it helps if you don't make 3 variations on the name.

These films are made to make money and will take some liberties to appeal to a greater audience. That does not make it a bad movie. If the sport gains from this type of exposure, I call it a win. Unfortunately the cinema verite critics will get their panties all up in a knot and poo poo this because 5% of it might be made up. Those types are not true fans of athletics and should be ignored.

Now THAT would be a big thread.

I might make one called "Running Movies - Name ONE Good One!" (The Pre ones were ok, but not great, c'mon....)

Will the movie cover some great races and then long periods of them ducking each other in various meets in the UK and Europe for years?

I anticipate long clips of their managers getting together and saying things like "Seb would really love to run in Glascow, how about Steve takes the race in Brighton that weekend?"

Yeah its a great rivalry, especially when they only raced 7 freaking times against each other...

Their fans deserved more.

Where and when is PDT observed?

PDT is used in the summer in these US states (PST during winter)

California

Idaho - western counties

Benewah, Bonner, Boundary, Clearwater, Kootenai, Latah, Lewis, Nez Perce, Shoshone and north part of Idaho

Nevada

Oregon - except most of Malheur county

Washington

PDT is used during summer in these Canadian provinces (PST during winter)

British Columbia - except for these eastern communities

Cranbrook, Golden, Invermere which is in the MST/MDT zone

Yukon

LOL.

Anyway, Ovett refuses to co-operate, for obvious reasons....

It wasn't me who asked about PDT, brainiac. Read the posts again, if that's not too much for you.

The fact that you don't know what PDT is just reinforces my point that you can't tell time. Thanks, but we already knew that.

what about the spring and fall?

its feb.

quiz:

1-is feb part of summer?

2-is feb part of fall?

3-is feb part of spring?

4-is ura tool a tool?

Hint: Only 1 of the above is a "yes".

Shall I take your avoidance of the question as meaning you do not know? Well I shall tell you.

This year Daylight Savings Time in the U.S. runs from March 14 (winter) to November 7 (fall). It encompasses all of spring and summer, half of fall, and 1 week of winter. Daylight Savings Time is now the dominant time management function.
