Hey Andy,
Actually as soon as you said side view and white dog I was like, "Wow...my head must be a little screwy because I remember a white dog and a slightly overhead view." =) But I also saw it like a week ago on comedy central, so it's not like it was some amazing memory recall.
Gladiator had Brian Dennehey (sp?) but I can't remember correctly because I was thinking of the part where the young guy hits Tommy Boy Sr. on the top of the head and it's kinda screwing my perspective.
I'm thinking that maybe it's like a blind spot...where your eye can't see something perfecty it makes it up based on some judgements...maybe that's the way our memory works, which explains why we tend to play up really good memories and play down really bad ones...I remember thinking that the old He-Man cartoons I saw as a kid were incredible, and then when I saw a taped copy of an episode recenty, I honestly did not remember the animation being that shlocky or the plots being so bad. True, as a kid, the plot would probably be less campy, but the animation definately seemed completely different, as if they were two different versions: one in my head, and the real one.
As a sidenote, Thundercats stills rocks the house.
