Obviously the Glenn Close "vat of molasses" scene from the 1997 live action version, "101 Dalmatians" gets mentioned a fair bit for its WAM potential, however the other night I re-watched the original 1961 Disney animated version. It was one of the first films I ever saw in the cinema back in the 1970s, and while I remembered enjoying it I'd forgotten how very good it actually is. And I'd totally forgotten that there is actually a wetlook scene in it, albeit that it's a cartoon one, when Pongo the dog is trying to get the two humans to notice each other and wraps them up in his lead, they end up falling into the Regent's Park pond together, fully dressed of course.
Interesting side note for geeks - I remember some debate about the 101 domain name associated with the film. The original Internet DNS RFCs forbade domains starting with digits as early systems were liable to assume they were the start of an IP address. This was changed in RFC 1123 of 1989 however in 96 some techies were still following the older protocol. https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc1123#page-13
soundguy said: In Perl, you still can't start a variable name with a number.
Indeed, though I don't think that's due to risk of taking it as an IP address. If I remember correctly, you couldn't start a variable name with a number in Spectrum BASIC, though that was nearly 40 years ago. Am now wondering which languages do, and do not, allow variable names to start with a digit?
Love you, too
