Night of the Living Dead was a pretty brilliant movie, packaging a strong social message inside a B-movie wrapper. It's theme of lynch mobs and such spoke to me a little more than the attack on crass consumerism in Dawn of the Dead.

Of course, we just watched Shaun of the Dead and I laughed my ass off (not literally, because that would be too easy a diet plan), so please understand I adore the zombie movie.

Very special episode: The movie
I have nightmares about the big screen version of “Blossom.”

Too, too funny. That show is always going to be remembered for having a Very Special Episode every week, isn't it?

While I think the author missed (perhaps purposefully to prove his point) the Addams Family movies as examples of how to do it right, Maverick is the only movie named that I'd really disagree about. And even that is retroactively tainted for me by starring Sexist McCrucifixion.

I saw "Bewitched." Some cute scenes in search of a reason to be strung together. Not the worst 2 hours I've ever spent but had it not been for the "Rent" preview, I would have considered it a wasted evening.

I also saw "Bewitched" and need two hours of my life back now. It's not horrible, but being a Nicole Kidman fan and NOT a Will Ferrell fan...yeah.

Did we know Katie Finneran was in it? Small part, but I did sit up and think, hey!

Maverick is the only movie named that I'd really disagree about.

I would put Maverick in the "not-bad" group, rather than the "not-good" group.

I enjoyed it a lot, actually. Though I only had a passing aquaintance with the James Garner version on TV, so I guess there was less info for comparison.

I liked it too, but I bet JG was funnier...Garner is a funny man. And Matt, I like your nick for Gibson.

I saw Bewitched, The Perfect Man, and Mr. and Mrs. Smith on Friday. I enjoyed them all, though Mr. and Mrs. Smith was definitely the most tightly edited and charismatic. I don't understand what people have against Bewitched, really. It's pretty inoffensive. And I had a few issues with The Perfect Man, mostly a couple of choices the heroine and her mother make, including one painful watch from the hall thing, but it was otherwise better than I expected.

I was almost asleep, when the following question popped insistingly into my consciousness:

What is a 'moisture farm'?

It's a large tract of desert land covered with machines called "vaporators" that, as near as I can tell, use some sort of condensation procedure to pull what little moisture out of the air there is. The moisture, which has magically become water, is then sold to the inhabitants of said desert.

Why these vaporators, which almost certainly use a very, very simple running principle, are so likely to break down in Star Wars canon is a question left best unexplored.

ETA: It's evident that I read way too many of the expanded universe novels when I was younger, isn't it? There's a reason my insistence about not seeing the third movie is so strong: my emotional investment is too great to handle another thrashing.
