A place to talk about movies--Old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.
Groundhog Day is great. I mean, people are allowed to have their own opinions and taste and stuff, but NOT IN THIS INSTANCE.
Sorry, but that movie did an all too effective job of conveying the boredom and repetition-spawned suckage of all joy from life that the main character was experiencing. Only the moment with Punxatawney Phil driving struck me as entertaining.
You so funny! And by that, I mean -- don't quit your day job, Smay.
Yes, well at least my dayjob doesn't include working for superfundie KrazyKristian Boss.
Quick! Your top five favorite Bill Murray performances.
If you don't have five favorite Bill Murray performances, get the hell out of this thread!
I think Andie McDowell is a terrible actress, but this is one of the two movies I like her in, the other being "Unstrung Heroes."
You know, telling Alibelle she'll get it when she's older is about as respectful as "Oh, you'll get fat when you're thirty, though." (to which I should have replied "Like you? Will I also get bitter and vindictive? Yay!" But I didn't. Still, being in good shape works fine as revenge so far.)
I hate Andie MacDowell. I really enjoy Groundhog Day, but given how Alibelle feels about, say, tamarinds, there's no reasoning with some people.
I only tried to watch The Princess Bride once on TV, they shortened my favourite scene (on TBS, maybe, or TNT), and I'm not going in for that again. Nosirree.
TiVo cuts down on the amount of stumbling into crack I do these days.

Oh, Robin. I thought you were always wise. It's like the end of a more innocent era.
Actually you should watch it again and again and again and again and again
God, what a nightmare. Also, I've done that, and just recalling the memory is bringing traumatized tears to my eyes.

Hmmm, the selection (not the movies) seems kind of pedestrian. But that's what came to mind immediately. Anybody for Quick Change or What About Bob?

Serves you right for the wrongness of your opinion. May it bring you suffering.

I was trying to figure this out. And first I was all, she's defending me! Whoot! And then I was all, oh, wait, no. She's making fun of my pickyness again. And then I was like, oh! I get it. It's ita. She's both nice and picking on me simultaneously. It's her art.
