Didn't actually watch the clip, was just continuing with the discussion. Besides, to criticize the concept of relegating things to times/particular celebrations is kind of like criticizing all holidays and special events to ever be created. To me, it's one of the better reasons to make a special day/month. I mean, beats the hell out of Easter, which is basically a zombie story.

Terence Hill, as recently confirmed during an interview to an Italian TV talk-show, was offered the role but rejected it because he considered it "too violent". Dustin Hoffman and John Travolta declined the role for the same reason. When Al Pacino was considered for the role of John Rambo, he turned it down when his request that Rambo be more of a madman was rejected.
Al Pacino = God
