I think of that, plus it makes me sad to see how painfully thin Vera-Ellen is and how they never show her collarbone and neck. Oh, and then I think of Bing Crosby beating his kids. So, I guess I think of a lot during the movie. :-(

Originally Posted By Labuda Ok, so.... we've been seeing a few movbies of late, but first let me say this: "aside from my usual whining that Steve Whitmire's Kermit and Eric Jacobson's Fozzie don't sound right. Walter, Gary, and Mary are great characters." Ditto! Especially on the voices...it REALLY bugs me, but I let it go. Piggy is off now, too, at times. The price we pay for having these characters survive this long, I guess. Oh, well. Anyhow, I'll just start with Thanksgiving time since my last post was pre-turkey day. The Muppets Regal Cinema in the Metroplex AWESOME! When we left and Matt realized it was just after midnight, he asked if we could go do his first Black Friday shopping experience. So, off to Best Buy and the massive crowds there, where I bought the Soundtrack. OMG, I cannot put into words how HAPPY this movie made me. THRILLED, even, I'll say. I just adore the Muppets, and seeing an old friend show up as the human version of Walter was AWESOME! I need to see if I still have an email address for him... lost his snail mail a couple years back, so I can no longer put a note in a Christmas card. Oh, well. At least I know that I once spent the night sleeping one off in the same house as a Muppet! LOL New Year's Eve our local Regal water Fun, schlocky, and a total chick flick, but I found it enjoyable, and Matt wasn't offended. Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows local Regal frozen Coke We both enjoyed it. Matt says he gets why it's not getting a ton of good reviews since it's similar to the first. I, though, wish Stephen Fry had a bigger part and holy MOLY, how have I been a fan of his for this many years and NOT remember how crooked his nose is? WOW! Camera angles ftw! The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo local Regal frozen Coke OMG, I LOVED this! I can't yet compare and contrast too much with the foreign film, but I think I'm going to manage to finish that one today or tomorrow. Hmmm, I thought there were more since mid-November, but, yeah, that's it. Oh, and here at home, we watched: Watchmen don't recall I liked bits & pieces of this movie, but overall, I just think Rorschach was a good character and the movie mostly fell flat with me. Matt loves it, though, which is why there's a Blu-Ray of it here. We've also been watching DVDs of Henry Rollins' spoken word shows. His online store had a sale recently, so I bought all of them. $5 a pop, not bad and TOTALLY worth it!

Originally Posted By DyGDisney ^^Can't believe you had never seen It's a Wonderful Life. I LOVE that movie, yet it always makes me teary eyed at the end. I've been looking for it on TV all December and haven't seen it once, but it's coming on tomorrow night so I plan to watch it. Another Jim Carey Christmas Carol watcher here. At home. Popcorn and m-n-m's (my daughter won a movie fun pack at a white elephant party).

Originally Posted By DDMAN26 I've recently watched the George C Scott, Patrick Stewart and Muppet versions of A Christmas Carol. I watched Scrooge the Albert Finney musical. And I've watched Rise of the Planet of the Apes recently. As follows, loved it loved it loved it, eh, loved it.
Originally Posted By melekalikimaka Thanks, DyG. It's been a really, really hard week but I'm more emotional due to exhaustion and moments of joy and goodness that happened today. (Kind people at work, in the stores, finding out my friend's cancer is completely gone and she doesn't have to have radiation, etc). So, not all bad...just a rollercoaster basketcase kinda day. I hope you have a very Merry Christmas!

Originally Posted By DDMAN26 I'll say it, I don't get the appeal of It's A Wonderful Life. The movie bores me to death.
