Laurel was very sick at the time of Hardys funeral and when asked why he missed it Laurel said, “Babe would understand.”

Stan was the genius of the two Hardy wanted to play golf. Together they made comedy that people have been stealing from for decades.

Thank you for the memories

Poor Ollie looks deflated. (That's a good excuse for the rest of us to avoid diets! *grin*)

They brought laughter to a world that sorely needed it

I've witnessed somebody set up a projector in an African village in the 70's, first movie they ever watched. Laurel and Hardy. I learned 1/

In Blazing Saddles, when they are waiting for the Sherriff, the mayor says "give him this laurel and hardy handshake" I never caught that
bigblindguy
"... my pleasure to extend this Laurel, and Hardy handshake..." I remember so much of that film... saw it when it was new, what a flic :D
bigblindguy
My favorite scenes were the "bookends" to the Sherrifs first day, Wake and Bake with Gene Wilder, then the "Morons" speech, Gene was human:D

The movie of their lives was very good - Steve Coogan and Jon C Reily I think.

I'd you liked the movie and ever get a chance to watch the play you need to take it! (Laurel and Hardy by Tom MCGrath I believe)

everything is perfect about that movie, except the musical score was overbearingly schmaltzy imho, and mixed too loud. when (1

In german, they are known as "Dick und Doof", which means fat and dumb. I was pretty shocked to learn that they originally had normal names.

In Spain is El Gordo y el Flaco, the fat and the slim... Translations tend to suck.

High five, fellow Mediterranean! Unfortunately they were called Fat and Slim in greek too.

In sweden, they were Helan and Halvan. “The whole and the half”.

That one is beautiful.

In Finland they were "Ohukainen ja Paksukainen" which roughly means "The slim and the fat"

He lost a bunch of weight
NoAlarmsAndNoSuprisesPlease
I seen a good documentary on them lately, his doc put him on a diet late in life. They had a genuine bromance too, lifelong friends .

He had a heart attack three years prior to this, and took his weight seriously.

Lost his mind, too.

Why was the word 'of' censored? Who does that?
waaromniet
Illuminati did it
Cyberjvh
Maybe it was a typo that said "if" instead of "of."
WeAllLiveInAUserSubmarine
Yeah those people can fuck of
FiftyShadesOfCauliflower
Censoring fuck, shit or cunt is just as arbitrary. All perfectly good English words within the proper context.
NefariousGoop
Shit, piss, fuck, cunt, cocksucker, motherfucker and tits
IceWeaselX
Not really. Standards of decorum depending on audience means censoring obscenities isn't arbitrary, though not always necessary or welcome.
FiftyShadesOfCauliflower
Honestly, I've seen far more complaints about the word "of" than the word "fuck". Usually when used after could, would, or should.
IceWeaselX
That's a different reason, not censorship. It's a matter of literacy, not offensiveness.
FiftyShadesOfCauliflower
I think you underestimate how strongly regional dialects offend many people. "Would of", "y'all" etc. is just that, a dialect.It has little…
FiftyShadesOfCauliflower
Which is a perfect example of why context matters. Simply banning a word regardless of context is highly irrational. Regardless of audience…
IceWeaselX
(1/2) Yes and no. Even if it's contextually appropriate, certain words will taint a message by drawing outrage. Censorship shouldn't be the

or social setting,when talking about Trump (for example) it's always appropriate to say"fuck this orange cunt".Even in church or at funerals
