Your Letters

I hadn't thought about this film for 30 odd years until I just read the bit in B3ta

I must have been on a college trip or something to Germany when it came out as my over-riding memory was seeing the dubbed German trailer. If you haven't seen it, it's amazing.

You realise that Estelle Getty should have been talking in a deep raspy Germanic voice all along, and you will never forget, about 2 mins in - hearing Sly shout

"STOP oder meine mami schiesse!"

There is no puerile English teenager who isn't mind-translating this on the fly as "stop or my mammy will sh*t herself"

And of course Youtube has it in remastered glory, enjoy

There could be a sequel Stop Or My Pop Will Shoot!. Sylvester Stallone is a retired cop moving to live with his detective daughter and embarrasses her by not understanding technology and being trigger happy. But I don’t think they should do more shower interruption or diaper scenes.

Thanks Jan, we’ll pass your idea onto Stallone’s people, we’re sure he’s itching to get back into the S!OMMWS cinematic universe.
