February 20[edit]

daytime slogans[edit]

Who can remember some daytime slogans? This one was on the American Broadcasting Company; Love in the Afternoon. This one was on the National Broadcasting Company; It Will Excite You. Were there any others? How about the Columbia Broadcasting System?72.229.136.18 (talk) 03:13, 20 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

See List of ABC slogans, List of CBS slogans, List of NBC slogans, Fox Broadcasting Company#Network slogans, List of Network Ten slogans, List of Nine Network slogans, and List of Seven Network slogans. You Want Slogans? Wikipedia's Got Slogans That Will Excite You, Or That You'll At Least Love For An Afternoon.'.

I checked the lists of slogans. They were for primetime, not daytime. Network Ten, Nine Network, and Seven Network are Australian, not American. ABC, CBS, and NBC had daytime slogans before FOX came into the picture.72.229.136.18 (talk) 01:18, 22 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Song identification[edit]

Can anyone identify this song? It's some sort of House/Techno. (The linked version is a crude imitation that I made in Garage Band) --71.198.72.82 (talk) 03:18, 20 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

What is the name of this song?[edit]

A couple of days back I saw a video on MTV. The lyrics went something like this : "... beppo beppo be... beppo beppo be...filipino...filipino...". There were lot of girls in the video and a black guy with a strange hairstyle. (I think that guy appears in Snickers ad too !). Could anyone help me out ? Thanks. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 59.162.209.34 (talk) 09:59, 20 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

American Idol song[edit]

The day that all the finalists were chosen (the 25 guys and girls, or whatever), I think it was February 9, they had them all dance to some song at the end of the show while being introduced as finalists. Does anyone know what song that was? Adam Bishop (talk) 11:54, 20 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Terrible? --70.167.58.5 (talk) 19:56, 20 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Naturally, but I still want to find out what it was! Adam Bishop (talk) 21:35, 20 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Pic[edit]

From which film is this pic of Helena Bonham Carter? David Pro (talk) 14:00, 20 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

According to that website, it's from Mary Shelley's Frankenstein. —Kevin Myers 15:17, 20 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I hope that this image can be uploaded and only used in the Mary Shelley's Frankenstein article with the Non-free allowed in template. David Pro (talk) 14:35, 22 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Timothy Dalton[edit]

Is true that Timothy Dalton filmed twice the gunbarrel sequence? Since, there are a video of an unused gunbarrel sequence featuring Dalton. This is the link to the video. —Preceding unsigned comment added by David Pro (talkcontribs) 17:43, 20 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

According to this website the Timothy Dalton Bond films (as well as the Pierce Brosnan Bond films) were filmed in 2.35:1 aspect. Therefore it's believed that this unused gun barrel by Dalton was filmed in that aspect. David Pro (talk) 18:13, 20 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
