I think we have discussed it enough at this point. Let's talk about Withnail & I because I plan on watching it tonight! And Duce, that's their loss

it's just our way of consumption, and mostly because we "do" export Malaysians are probably the most Westernised amongst the Asians |

Of course most intelligent people will pick up cultural norms from most countries and generally have an idea of what you may expect to see in their Film/TV due to what is imported/exported, but I don't think it's the same as me watching a film about the 80's which isn't even that striking in it's nostalgic references.

^^I haven't seen Hot Tub Time Machine so I reserve my opinion
I got all of the references in The Wedding Singer, despite not quite being around in America in the 80s (though I was around in the 80s), and I thought it was funny, though these days I can't really bring myself to watch another Adam Sandler movie |

I've never seen Withnail & I but I'd like to. It's one of those movies I have to admit I'm worried I won't like, though, because it's been talked up a lot to me. |
