Okay, but for reasons I couldn't be bothered to explain I'm giving you lot a day to get it right. Movie about a band of WWW2 prisoners whose escape is planned to take place during a propaganda association football game against the Nazi national team. Stars Sylvester Stallone, Michael Caine and Pelé. And a load of other soccer stars.

Yes. And called WW2 WWW2.

Dunno did I explain it, but we Irish often refer to football as soccer as we ave our own brand of football called Gaelic football. So a child might say he likes "football and soccer" to refer to both codes. In fact, the phrases "All-Ireland football championship", "All-Ireland football final", etc don't even use the word "Gaelic", for obvious reasons. Nonetheless, sometimes "Gaelic" on its own is used synonymously with the sport. e.g. he plays soccer and Gaelic.

Peil is the Irish for football (Gaelic). Sacar is the Irish for football (soccer). Indeed, An Foclóir Beag http://www.csis.ul.ie/scripts/focweb/Exe/focloir.exe defines soccer as "cluiche peile nach bhfuil cead ach ag an gcúl báire an pheil féin a láimhseáil ann", i.e. "a football game in which only the goalkeeper is allowed to handle the ball.

So..... Any guesses on the film?

Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King

The reason I didn't let the other question go through is I had to go home to a state of internetlessness and I wouldn't be able to say if anyone was right.

P.S. Very Googleable

Sorry....

Meatloaf: I'd do anything for those girls. But I won't do that. (approximate quote)

Movie about... well, about five pop stars. Awful.
