The Matchmaker, anyone?
I loved that movie.
Harken: You fought with Captain Reynolds in the war? Zoe: Fought with a lot of people in the war. Harken: And your husband? Zoe: Fight with him sometimes, too.

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.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Which one did they cut, ita?
They shortened the lightning sand scene, when they're underground. Given that a) that's my most romantic movie scene (from dive to him putting his hand on the small of her back after the rescue) and b) I can't help breathing in time to it, it spoiled the experience for me.

Sure I went over to the Dark Side, but just to pick up a few things.
Groundhog Day is one of two movies in which I can stand AM. The other is Hudson Hawk.
HUDSON HAWK!!!!
The last time I poked my head in here I mentioned I liked this movie. Parts of it were just...weird, but I liked the heist scenes.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Man, that sucks.
Matt, I liked The Matchmaker, as well. Denis Leary and Janeane Garafalo getting hooked up? Snarktastic. It's not great cinema, but it's pleasant fluff.

Huh. I remembered it as her getting hooked up with the Irish guy that was all mocking toward her at first.

D'oh. You're right. My bad.

Your top five favorite Bill Murray performances.
If you don't have five favorite Bill Murray performances, get the hell out of this thread
1. Groundhog Day
2. Lost in Translation
3. Ed Wood
4. ....
5. ....
(I liked Royal Tenenbaums, but don't especially remember his performance in it. Violently hated Rushmore. Saw Ghostbusters too long ago to have any accurate critical assessment of his performance. Can't think of anything else I've seen him in offhand.)
*stubbornly stays in thread anyhow*

I like this typo, but I'm picturing a cross between Stripes and Showgirls, and it's kind of giving me brain trauma.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Watched Wild Things last night, and it was surprisingly enjoyable, but Bill Murray=not a very believable trial attorney. Made a great ambulance-chaser, though.
