It has been announced that a new movie about the interlocking lives of the three great composers, Bach, Beethoven and Mozart will be made. Directed by Ridley Scott, and staring Arnold Schwartzenegger, Bruce Willis and Harrison Ford, Mr Scott raised some eyebrows at the launch, when he allowed the stars to pick their own parts, Mr Willis said he will play Beethoven, Mr Ford choose to play Mozart, and Arnie of course said 'I'll be Bach'.

Is it Give An Old Joke A Home week?...

strauss194411:44 UTC30 Sep 2008

First time i have heard it, pissed myself laughing when i did!

godstar12:32 UTC30 Sep 2008

That has got to be a joke. URL?

gyro08:45 UTC01 Oct 2008

That actually made I chuckle..

gyro08:45 UTC01 Oct 2008

A bit.

drovers_dog22:23 UTC01 Oct 2008

I don't get it.

You'd think Arnie would be a shoo-in to play the part of Mozart considering they're both Austrians.

strauss194422:25 UTC01 Oct 2008

Yes it is #3, but you will see that i have upheld my tradition of only telling really bad ones.

strauss194422:30 UTC01 Oct 2008

#6 will undoubtly get it in a couple of weeks, they are not really speedy thinkers down there, he is from Tasmania you know.

gyro04:47 UTC02 Oct 2008

Not enough 4 syllable words, Straussie; you know how verbose he is ...

maestro15:36 UTC03 Oct 2008

He actually wanted to play a different composer

"Has ta be Liszt-a baby"...

niner05:37 UTC04 Oct 2008

I'm Chopin at the bit to go see this new movie.

griswold_05:54 UTC04 Oct 2008

Nonsense, Arnold won't do this film. He's far too Bizet with other things these days.

drovers_dog06:22 UTC04 Oct 2008

I'm not so sure the Governator won't make a comeback in the near future Vivaldi time he has on his hands.

niner15:42 UTC04 Oct 2008

Now don't be Haydn on Arnie. He's my governor.

mister0nara20:26 UTC04 Oct 2008

This joke would be much funnier were it historically accurate

Bach died before the other two were even born

And due to Mozart's premature death, there's no certainty he & Beethoven ever actually met

niner21:34 UTC04 Oct 2008

Sousa you.

strauss194422:06 UTC04 Oct 2008

Where abouts did i say they were alive at the same time #15? It is true Bach that had an influence over Beethoven & Mozart, and it is also true that early Beethoven works do sound unmistakablely like Mozart. It may be a bad joke, but it is 'Historically accurate', to deem their lives to be 'interlocking'..........................And BTW, lighten up a little bit will ya, jeeeez it is only a joke!!

drovers_dog22:08 UTC04 Oct 2008

I still don't get it and I've only got a week to go. Give me a clue.

strauss194422:28 UTC04 Oct 2008

Keep trying DD, you being one of the smart ones in Tassie, i'm confident that you will get it soon.

mister0nara22:58 UTC04 Oct 2008

You're right, strauss

Even with historical accuracy, it still isn't funny

strauss194405:27 UTC05 Oct 2008

Well yes Mr O, you are very correct, i admit that is a weak joke, the only ones i seem to tell!!
