I've never seen Footloose.
I don't particularly want to.
I also have managed to avoid seeing Dirty Dancing in its entirety. But I have seen Lost Boys more times than I can keep track of, and plan on watching it again Real Soon Now.
Oh, I get it. You just don't like who did the rescuing, that's all. Wishin' I was your boyfriend what's-his-height. Oh wait, he's run off.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
But I have seen Lost Boys more times than I can keep track of, and plan on watching it again Real Soon Now.Oooo, good plan. I think I'll do a Lost Boys/Crow double-feature. Yes.

Thrive to spite them
The movie my middle school best friend and I rented every chance we could get was Thrashin' starring Josh Brolin about 2 rival skate board gangs where Josh's character falls in love with the sister of a rival gang member.
I haven't seen this movie in decades but if I rented it I'm sur eit would all come flooding back.
And I watched a lot of Lost Boys.

Ooooh. I haven't seen The Crow in forever. I wonder if I'd still cry through most of it.

Mostly lurking...
Home from hair appointment. Hair is lovely and short. There may or may not be pictures later. It depends on how awful I'm still sweating.
Will someone come fix dinner? I hot and tired and cranky and don't wanna cook.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
Good. In this heat, I want to go get a pixie cut and get what little hair is on my neck off of it.
I highly recommend it. The cut I got last week got all the hair off my neck. It was lovely this weekend.
I love Fame, Flashdance and Footloose. I am an 80's teen, what can I say? My marching band did a whole Footloose show in 1983 or 84. We opened with the 20th Century Fox theme, moved into Footloose, Let's Hear it for the Boy, and ended with Almost Paradise. We rocked.

Dave just came in and asked if he should take a walk before or after dinner. I laughed at his assumption that there was going to be dinner. I think he's going to cook now. Still writing paper. Brain still melting.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
so the guy who wants to trim my tree - gave me a quote on sunday - that made me choke. I called him today to say I was getting quotes - and instantly it dropped 200.00 we talked a little more - and it dropped another 100.00 .

Compassionately intolerant
Lost Boys is one of my all-time-favorites of anything ever. And Joel Schumaker talking about it on the anniversary edition makes me love it even more...if that is even possible within the laws governing the love of stuff.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
Have seen Dirty Dancing, (loved the soundtrack. Patrick and Jennifer left me more - yeah, whatever. Although "Nobody puts Baby in a corner!" is a phrase that can be timeless comedy gold, on occasion), have not seen Footloose or Flashdance. Little bits of the one that had Kevin Bacon, whichever one that was, but not the movie proper.
But 80s movies I love include Lost Boys, Some Kind of Wonderful, The Princess Bride (if that counts), Beetlejuice, Heathers, Ghostbusters, The Breakfast Club, Indiana Jones ( if that counts) etc etc etc
Still haven't ever seen Ferris Bueller's Day Off.
