I hated the director's cut of The Abyss.
I thought it went to a super-preachy place that took me out of a movie-enjoying place and into "I must now feel bad because I am a warful and destructive ugly human". I thought the simplicity of the theatrical version was much more lovely.
I just really enjoyed all the characters and the relationship between Bud and The Bitch. And Michael Biehn *sigh* I rented Planet Terror for you, and you didn't disappoint me.
I should not be allowed to watch It's a Wonderful Life. It hits my cry button way too easily.
I watched IAWF four years running, late at night on Christmas Eve. That's some depressing shit, right there.
I love It's a Wonderful Life, but I'm more about the love story between George and Mary than anything else.
I put it on for the kids cause I realized they had never seen it (not sure how, but that is something else). Well, they both ditched me and I turned into a water fountain at the end.
Just finished watching Mixed Nuts, a perennial fave holiday movie.
Madeleine Kahn rocks!
Second movie of the day: Troy.
This time I'm pretty confident the movie really is just that bad. Sure is pretty, though.
Troy was one of the few times I saw a movie in the theatre and really wanted to ask for my money back.
I am perfectly happy with the six dollars I spent on Enchanted, however. Loved it.
I just watched Atonement. I was really enjoying it up until about the last 10 minutes. Oh well.
