All you Groundhog Day haters are Dead To Me. Seriously. You are crazy like crazy things that are mad with a lack of reason. I own that movie, I used to be able to reel off entire scenes from memory, I've damn near memorized the commentary track, and I will still fall into its thrall every single time I flash across it while channel-surfing. It's so fucking perfectly written, I just... guh. Love Bill Murray, find Andie McDowell totally tolerable, crumple in a little whimpering heap before the screenwriter.

Also, I can barely justify, yet can never not watch The Cutting Edge.

And now I'm going to earn the loathing and disrespect of every Buffista who ever was or is or is to be by admitting that Fools Rush In falls into this category too. The only possible, lame, excuses I have for this last one are (a) nifty soundtrack; (b) Matthew Perry all lean and healthy and pre-pain-pill-addiction; and (c) Salma Hayek at her most radiantly Kinsey-skewing luminous, playing a snarky Catholic girl.

But really, those are all lame, lame excuses. I suck so bad, except that I've now freed everyone else from feeling the least bit bad about their own guilty pleasures.

Three of my must-watch movies were on TV on the same night recently; Princess Bride, O Brother Where Art Thou?, and Airplane. That was a good night.

Bring It On is on TV now, and I did have to watch it. So I guess I'm adding that to my list.

It's not that long -- I don't know why it was cut.

Maybe they figured it could really offend people. But they obviously didn't balance that with the amount of joy and good cheer and hilariousity it would bring to other people.

The Cutting Edge is so great. Toe pick! And I like Fools Rush In. I don't love it, but I definitely like it.

Groundhog Day still sucks, though.

I have a crappy taped-off-HBO video. I need the DVD. And yeah, it's one of those movies I can quote the dialogue to as I watch.

"Watch out for that first step: it's a dooooooozy!"

"It's Ned! Ned Ryerson!"
"Ned?!" t whack!

And then Phil's grin. So perfectly played by Murray and Tolbolowski.

Groundhog Day is great. I mean, people are allowed to have their own opinions and taste and stuff, but NOT IN THIS INSTANCE.

Watching Bring It On right now. The Clovers just called Eliza and Kirsten "a bunch of Buffys". Funny on many (well, two) levels...

ETA: And I'm sure I'm the last person here to make the connection, but I did not even recognize Clare Kramer until I heard her voice several times.

The Scrappy is wise. Am I right or am I right? Or am I right? Right? Rrr.

Stands proudly beside Scrappy and her utter Rightness
