Bud Spencer & Terence Hill

[ad]

Bud Spencer & Terence Hill Out of the blue, I remembered these guys. And I remembered how I enjoyed watching their movies. They were bizarrely funny. Wonder if the DVDs are available. Hmmmm. After doing some quick research, these guys are Italians! I’m not sure whether the movies I watched were dubbed. Anyone prehistoric mammal out there who could help me out with this?

Bud Spencer (Carlo Pedersoli) and Terence Hill (Mario Girotti) made 19 movies together, and I can remember watching a number of them when I was 5 going on 9 (somewhere between 1982 and 1986). A shocking revelation is that Bud Spencer, the fat bastard (I blame Austin Powers!), was actually the first Italian to swim the 100 meter freestyle in less than a minute!

Won’t write too much on this entry because I doubt any of you have heard of them.

In 1982 I am 19 yrs old. I have seen a couple of their movies during the 80s on Melbourne channel 9’s midnight til dawn old movies marathon, the Trinity series I recall. Not bad. The thing that make me remember them is Terrence Hill’s eyes. They alwayslooked a bit weird to me.

Lucifer Oh horny one, we are once again blessed with your corneous presence. Thank you for remembering, do I have to sell my soul to you now?

Wombat And some of us were swimming in our daddy’s balls. LOL! His eyes looked weird indeed, always up to no good. Yes, another one who remembers!

Eric Another – OLE! I’ve no idea where to buy the DVDs. Definitely on the lookout! Apparently they made more than a dozen movies together.

Mr D Likewise. Remembered the wild wild west scene and also the buggy scene in some hall with balloons. Sausage eating too. Didn’t realized it was dubbed either.

tihtahpah Remember? Come on, you’re only a year younger than me.

Gallivanter : I have always wished that Bud Spencer has acted in The Good, The Bad & The Ugly istead of Eli Wallach. I think he would have made a better Tuco instead of Eli. Trivia : Quentin Tarantino considers the final three way showdown scene to be the best ever shot in film history. Me agree.

Wombat I haven’t watched The Good, The Bad & The Ugly, can’t seem to get my hands on the old DVDs (pirated ones that is). I just cannot believe that both Bud Spencer and Terence Hill were Italians.

tihtahpah Yes, and a WHOLE ONE YEAR less mature than I.

I think amazon.com has some of the westerns. Terrence is also part German and i think he even did a “Kraut” western in addition to the “spagetti” westerns he did with Bud. Check out several websites about the duo below:

I am 35 now and I grew up watching thier movies as I loved thier slapstick style of humour.
I have always wanted to collect all thier movies and I believe they should be reintroduced on dvd.
yes I would like to know where I could find copies of thier movies (in english) as I will never get tired of watching these classic duo!

nilesh sequeira I assume that you couldn’t find the titles off the internet? Try looking for Bud Spencer and Terence Hill movies @ allmovie.com. Look for their names and click to see the list of movies they have acted in.
