Oh! Another movie I love that really isn't all that great, but I love it, is Last of the Mohicans. "I will find you!" Also, did anyone else notice that the little sister was ugly for pretty much the entire movie, until the second right before she jumped? And then she was suddenly gorgeous? It's the weirdest phenomenon. That, and the hypnotic violin song thing they play during the scene leading up to the love scene are what make me love this movie.
Yes. Men like sports. Men watch the action movie, they eat of the beef, and enjoy to look at the bosoms. A thousand years of avenging our wrongs and that's all you've learned?

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I mean, except for the odd idea that Uma Thurman is pretty, much less prettier than Janeane, but that's not fatal.
Uma Thurman is pretty.

Uma Thurman is pretty.
Not really. But she is striking.
Okay! Off to see a movie. Later, gators.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
Uma Thurman is pretty.
She looks exactly like her brother if he were wearing a training bra.

I think I may have walked out of What about Bob and I've never been able to sit through all of Groundhog Day

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Uma Thurman is pretty.
Is not.
I've never been able to sit through all of Groundhog Day
Well, you do get the hang of the plot after a while.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.
Sigh. Groundhog Day. t pets the DVD
The bit that just kills me is the multiple suicide sequence in the middle. Especially that slo-mo swan dive off a church. It made me cry and cry the first time around. Still sniffles when I get to that, after umpteenth viewing. Oh, and the whole card-throwing-from-bed scene. ::sniff::
5 Fave Bill Murray performances? Groundhog Day, Lost in Translation, Rushmore, Kingpin, Ghostbusters.
I gotta add Roxanne to the list of movies I always stop and see. Actually, I've a major softness for any version of Cyrano.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil
Roxanne is my alltime favorite Steve Martin movie. One of the best of the "small town with quirky residents" genre. Actually, it shares a lot in common with Groundhog Day, including having a rather bad actress playing the romantic female lead.

And don't forget his attempts to save the homeless guy.
