I’ve seen much worse movies than the Twilight saga. I’ve watched all three - more than once. (Covers head) ---

Can’t believe I’m going to admit this, but here: I like **Master of Disguise**. Yes, the Dana Carvey movie. Yes, I watch it when I see it’s on cable and no one’s around. It’s so absurd, and some of his “identities” are pretty funny. I think that’s game, set, and match, I win the thread. ---

> [@winneee](#): > > Vanilla Sky was brilliant. I have to second this, especially when I came upon the interpretation that Life Extensions was intentionally creating nightmare scenario for David to induce him to wake up, freeing them of the growing moneysink of caring for him indefinitely. I imagined if the client opted to return to the dream, they repeated the “glitching” until the client finally agreed to exit the lucid dream. ---

The greatest comedy ever made? Not a chance…A good fun movie? You bet. Sometimes I think people (this board included) put way too much into the movies they watch. Sometimes I just like to watch a movie ya know? ---

I liked the movie _Xanadu_. I have the DVD, and still watch it occasionally. I even have the soundtrack. The original on vinyl \*and \*a CD. ---

> [@Slow\_Moving\_Vehicle](#): > > Preach on, brutha! My mp3 player has Dan Hill’s “Sometimes When We Touch” and Dave Loggins’ “Please Come To Boston”, as well as Janis Ian, John Denver, Anne Murray and Dan Fogelberg. I even have Michael Martin Murphey (“Wildfire”. Don’t pretend you don’t know it.) It will soon have Christopher Cross and Air Supply, as well. > > (In my defense, I also have lots of Dire Straits and Ani DiFranco. But I’m a child of the 70’s, and I see no reason to apologize for Poco, the Little River Band, or Carole King.) Oh yeah! I love you so much SMV, I Wanna Kiss You All Over! Tell me an Ode to Billy Joe! Let’s hear from One Tin Soldier! Let me feel some of that Summer Breeze! I feel so free now!!! And Run, Joey, Run! It’s okay to like that one, right? RIGHT???

[Black Snake Moan](http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0462200/) was one of my favorite films of 2006. My very favorite film of 2006 was [Apocalypto](http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0472043/). And I am not ashamed of either. ---

When I was a kid I used to listen to Kansas a lot. I don’t much anymore but I still think they were an innovative and creative band that did a lot of interesting things with rock music. They don’t deserve the “high cheese” rep they seem to have. ---

Some of mine have been mentioned already: Shania Twain’s music Titanic, and “My Heart Will Go On” The ending of Lost (though I do wish that more of the mythos had been clearly explained) Here are some I haven’t seen mentioned…heaven help me, I like: Movies - How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days, Little Nicky Music - Air Supply Cartoons - Monty (formerly Robotman) - I haven’t particularly seen it trashed here, but it can’t be all that popular, since it hasn’t ever been collected in books (in any meaningful way - I know there’s one or two. But not the continual series releases that some other strips have. ---

I liked _Ishtar._ Only saw it once, when if first came out. I’m curious to see if I’d like it again after all these years.
