> [@Critical1](#): > > the last action hero, > that movie was pure spoof/satire from beginning to end. Yeah, I’ve never quite gotten the hate for this movie. It’s a solid, spot-on send up of the genre. I think the problem was the way it was marketed. The promos didn’t really do a good job of conveying just what type of movie they were selling and a lot of people went in expecting a pretty standard, “blow-shit-up-real-good” action flick, instead of the parody that it was. ---

> [@Ellen\_Cherry](#): > > I like _Titanic_ — and I am not ashamed to admit it! I cried when I saw it in the theater. I thought it was a great piece of movie-making and if I could, I’d watch it right now (if I could stand to re-watch that scene in the lower decks with the mother and the children. BOO HOO!). > > And Leonardo DiCaprio was cute. omg those scenes KILL ME. With the mom and her kids and the two elderly people ☹☹ Actually, the rifftrax version of it is out, and hilarious. It lets me re-watch the movie but distance myself from the strong emotions a bit. Because I really hate crying at movies, but I still like to rewatch the ones that make me cry. ---

I like the Disney movie “Lemonade Mouth” and will pause to watch the white kid rap in the song “Determinate.” Course - I’ve been rather overwhelmed the past few months and Disney was the speed I could operate on, but still, I know. There was something else I was going to post, but I’m too busy listening to the song in my head now. D’oh. ---

_Hudson Hawk_, starring Bruce Willis. I’m sorry. (On another note, this thread appears [at least until I post this response] in the Cafe Society list right next to **Worst song ever? “Friday” courtesy of Youtube**.) ---

> [@Ludy](#): > > I enjoy all the Top Model shows. > I will set both the Canadian and American ones to record and watch any others I come across. Yeah, me too. Well, I’ve never seen the Canadian version (which I understand is hosted by Mister Jay), but my wife sucked me into Tyra’s ANTM, and I have watched ever episode of the last three cycles. What’s a little frightening is that I am _way_ better than Mrs. SMV at picking which girl’s going to get sent home each episode. By about the fifth episode of this last cycle, I had picked Brittani to win. And I was right. Middle-aged heterosexual man, believe it or not. ---

> [@Typo\_Knig](#): > > I liked Star Trek Enterprise. Yes, I’m the audient. _Enterprise_’s finale was the worst hour of television not involving David E. Kelley, but the series was just finding its feet when they cancelled it. And the theme song rocked. Anyone who says different is a filthy Welshman. ---

Much of what I enjoy in life, entertainment wise, has been mentioned. I LOVE Everybody Loves Raymond because I’m guaranteed to laugh at least once, and that will often be the only laugh I have that day. I also like old black and white movies (if they are good movies that is). I would happily stay home and watch an old Barbara Stanwyck marathon on TCM while y’all go out and watch whatever the flavor of the month is, out there. Welcome to it. Oh, and Pennies From Heaven, the original series on PBS years ago, AND the remake with Steve Martin and Bernadette Peters. I thought it was brilliant. And I have the soundtrack album (bought it for $2 in a bargain bin) and still give it a spin on a rainy day. ---

I like 70’s AM radio. A lot. Angie Baby - Helen Reddy Saturday Night - Bay City Rollers Night the Lights Went Out in Georgia - Vikki Lawrence Seasons in the Sun - Terry Jacks I wanna stop now. I’m not embarrassed that I liked Independence Day, but am way ashamed that I liked it so much I saw five (!) times in the theatres (a personal record). It has been difficult writing this.
