My bad... i thought they were American productions. Well, i WAS right about Karl May, wasn't i ?

Yes my brother, you were right 'bout him [img]graemlins/petard.gif[/img]
(I thought there is a pipe smoking smiley too somewhere, but couldn't find it)

Here you go.

You won't tell me that this is a pipe!? That's an exhaust pipe! [img]graemlins/scream.gif[/img]
No way, Winnetou wouldn't smoke this one!!!

EDIT: rereading this post, it sounds weird to me - if it's not a pipe, why is it a pipe then? That's too confusing for me, I'll leave it up to you... *a pipe is a pipe, is a pipe...*

I think this is what they call a "bong".

So in one way or the other, it's exhausting too I guess!

Karl May is my favourite author ever!! [img]smile.gif[/img]

I still like his books even though they are aimed at teenagers. Let's seee....*counts on bookshel* I have 21 Karl May books [img]smile.gif[/img]

Most of them never got translated into English so I wouldn't be surprised if most of you Americans haven't heard of May. Lucky I've got them all in Hungarian

You guys telling me that his books have been made into films??? I've never heard of them! Let me at em!

Seriously, where can I get hold of those films?
The only Winnetou and Old Shatterhand-related film I've heard of was a spoof, made in Germany released last year.

I've seen a DVD edition some time ago. So I guess they are out on Video too. Don't know though, if they are available in english.

Well I guess they'd be available in german. It doesn't matter anyway I'm sure there'd be English subtitles. I'll do a search ...
