> “B&B”? Really? Not Mary Poppins?

**anyrose** , I even **own** a copy of _Mary Poppins_. And have no desire to see “B&B” since I first saw it as a child. I think it’s fair, after all this time in these feuds, to say that my mind makes associations where it chooses. And if they happen to match those of other people, I’ve gotten lucky. 😉  
At least I didn’t answer something like _Pete’s Dragon_.

There are plenty of us who remember him – but some of us (ahem) make an effort to pick answers that will score well.

(Of course, it doesn’t look like Donald O’Connor is going to turn out to be such an answer.)

**twicks** , dahling, I did say I thought he’d be a conch. I really did think he would score well for me. 😉

And I was as sure of that as I was for my _Oklahoma!_ answer.

I really messed up. I don’t know what I was thinking - my “live action” answer is **Beauty and the Beast**. Major suckage.
