Another one: _Double Jeopardy_, the one with Ashley Judd and Tommy Lee Jones. Itā€™s on right now. I love the way her character operates in this movie. I love her time in prison, the single-minded way she tracks down her husband, the way she acquires that dress to wear to the gala. I think she is the most beautiful actress in the world. ---

Holy crap, this reminds me - what happened to Juddā€™s new show? I remember seeing the premiere of a show she was starring in, a sort of female **Taken** where her son disappeared while in Europe and she was looking for him. Is it still running? ---

It was not renewed for a second season. ---

A couple that have recently lured me in, almost against my wishes: \*Pulp Fiction \* - late at night and I thought Iā€™d just watch til Jules and Vince were done with Brett. Watched it all. _Remember the Titans_ - only wanted a quick look because I am listening to an audiobook narrated by Will Patton. Watched the whole thing. Some forgotten surprises in the support cast too. _A Few Good Men_ - having become a much bigger Sorkin fan since I last saw it I wanted to see just how fast and snappy the dialogue was. Watched the whole thing. Lots of movies mentioned by others including a few that I have canā€™t not watched so many times that I now can not watch them. For instance I donā€™t think I have ever not sat down and watched _Ferris Buellerā€™s Day Off_ regardless of the time or cicumstances, however if it was on TV today I could skip it. ---

> [@Boyo\_Jim](#): > > Og forgive me, me too! Iā€™ve thought long and hard about why I have become obsessed with such a terrible movie, and I decided that Iā€™m simply insane. Better get that support group revved up; there are rumors of a sequel! ā€œIndependence Day 2: Electric Boogalooā€ Can one proudly wear their shame? Yes, yes I can. šŸ˜ƒ ---
