no subject
numbers seen , I think about 30 of these
or a couple more if one counts movies
I looked at a little of on dvd and said
no more of this...as something about
mary which I agree to me also was
totally not funny.
I didnt see the folksinger get shot
but I saw very little of it before turning
it off.
no subject
dvds
almost more than books we deal out popular dvds
but the good side,if it is that ,is that I can
take them home and look at them if I wish
and fast forward from scene to scene and see the
whole in 10 minutes without having wasted any
money.
really when I look in our dvd drawers though
or also by and large at this list I think
what hideous stupid stuff this is...
but there are a few on this list even that I liked
but it is depressing
no subject
>The only good part was when the folk singer got shot.
all right! i love folk music, but that would sort of echo john belushi smashing the folk singer's guitar in Animal House. slob humor!
no subject
Animal House--another movie I've never seen! :-)
no subject
But, like you, my list is almost entirely a matter of circumstance. There's maybe two movies on that list which I watched at my own initiation.
no subject
