    MissCandice came over to my house yesterday. We went out to lunch and came home and watched this movie. It's one of my favorites. We had fun making fun of the emotional directors descriptions of the deleted scenes.

    Wow. Really, really good film - tells the story of the leadup to and attack on Pearl Harbor by the Japanese. One thing that struck me is that, IMHO, it was just out-and-out a comedy of errors on the part of the Americans leading up to it. Pity it happened, and pity we responded by nuking two cities, but I'm glad I watched this film - I actually leared some America history opf which I was previously unaware. Yeah, I kow Dec 7 is Pearl Harbor Day and I used to live on Oahu, so I've a passing familiarity with it, but this film really brought it home for me - especially what with showing it from both sides in what I consider a balanced view.

    The horror classic original, not the dopey remake. This was the first time my daughter had seen it uncut, so I had fun watching her jump.

    One of my all time favorite movies. I try not to watch this movie very often, so that it doesn't get ruined for me. It was good to see it for the first time in about 10 years. See ya in 2016!

    I hadn't really followed much about this movie when it came out, so I thought it would be much more about the hostage incident at the 1972 Munich Olympics. It was surprisingly gory (well, surprising to me anyway). Not sure if I liked it or not, to be honest. And I'm not sure if it effectively made its point or not.

    I pretty much agree with what Lisann said -- I don't get why it received so many great reviews. I felt 10 steps ahead of every cliched character in the thing. I guess it's one of those movies where you have to suspend all logical thought right at the outset, because nothing from the real world exists in it -- except for the product placement by Food Network.

    I spent the first several minutes distractedly wondering if the characters I didn't recognize were from the strip or not, and what had happened to Verne's nephew, Plushie. After a while, though, I relaxed and laughed along with everybody else. I especially loved the dog.

    This was actually a very good movie. I'm not sure if I would have liked it but it was really good.

    If you like Garrison Keillor's radio show and you're a fan of Robert Altman's films, you won't be disappointed. Great cast! And I actually liked Lindsay Lohan for a change. 8^D

    Will make an excellent DVD rental for those foul weather afternoons and laid back evenings. Garrison Keillor and Robert Altman: match made in heaven.

    I really enjoyed it, especially some of the "hidden" Pixar stuff in it. It made me lol & was filled with lots of emotions. I also would love to get the soundtrack, oh & my goodness, the scenery, just perfect! Great movie.

    BTW, I love the John Ratzenberg bit at the end & "Arnold's" cameo. :D

    LOVED it! Pixar has that magic of mixing originality, humor and storyline.
    Make sure you watch the ending credits for the famous Pixar touch!

    Being a kid of the 80's, I have no clue how I've avoided seeing this one all these years, but I finally got around to watching it. I really loved it.

    Star Trek: Nemesis
    own it on DVD

    I hadn't watched this since it opened in the theater. I liked it the first time I saw it, but not as much as I had expected, but I think I was under the weather at the time. I really enjoyed it much more this time around.

    The Frisco Kid
    own it on DVD

    Awesome, funny movie costarring a young Harrison Ford. I just love Gene Wilder!

    Today:

    White Heat
    own it on DVD

    It took me forever to get around to this one (it was one of my dad's favorites, but my folks wouldn't let me watch it when I was a kid), but I'm glad I did. It was a very gripping movie and an interesting character study of a disturbed gangster.

    Bringing Up Baby
    own it on DVD

    I hadn't watched this movie in years. I forgot how great it is. Katharine Hepburn just glows, and Cary Grant gives a fantastic hilarious performance (his second best, IMHO, after Arsenic & Old Lace).
