One of my favorite movies is the one where Liam Neeson’s daughter gets taken, and he has to find out where she was taken, and get the guys who have taken her…I think it was called “The Guy Who Loses His Daughter”.
One of my favorite movies is the one where Denzel has to stop the taking of Pelham 123, and John Travolta is the leader of the plan in taking Pelham 123. and there were a bunch of hostages when they were taking Pelham 123…I think it was called “The Lost Subway”
One of my favorite films was where a bunch of bad guys let loose these snakes on a plane, and Sam Jackson had to fight the snakes on a plane, and some passengers even died because of the snakes on a plane…I think it was called “The Flight That Didn’t Land”
I like the one about the kids who get arrested for murder, so that one has to call his cousin Vinny to defend them. His cousin Vinny comes down from New York and does just that. It was called My Cousin Andrew.
One of mine is where the earth is being invaded by aliens and a couple of unlikely guys save they day. I think it was called, “Will Smith sucker punches some alien bitches.”
My favorite movie is about the future and has this guy going around shooting make-believe people in a really rainy future Los Angeles. I think it was called Toy People.
I love this movie series about a kid named Harry Potter, who goes around and does all these wizardly things, while all his friends and teacher talk about how Harry Potter is so great, Harry Potter this, Harry Potter that, blah blah blah… I think it’s called “The Young Wizard”.
There’s another one about a really titanic ship that everyone says is unsinkable because it’s so titanic - but it turns out the titanic ship sinks! I think it’s called “Really Large”.
My favorite movie is about a bunch of scientists who go to this island called Jurassic Park, and on this island is a bunch of dinosaurs created by the Jurassic Park geneticists, but then the Jurassic Park dinosaurs get out of their enclosures and raise hell by trying to kill all the people on Jurassic Park island.
If I remember correctly, the name of it is “Let’s all spend the weekend getting eaten!”
My favorite movie is that one where Humphrey Bogart owns a bar in Casablanca. And all of these other people come to Casablanca. And they’re trying to get papers so they can leave Casablanca.
I can’t wait to see that movie about cowboys and aliens. I mean, have you seen the trailers? It has cowboys! And aliens! It looks like just the ticket for anyone who likes cowboys (and/or aliens).
I’m looking through the movie listings in this morning’s paper…let’s see… ah! Here it is:
“Han and James Fight Lights in Sky”.
There was this movie about this Private Eye (who left the force because of something that happened in Chinatown (a district in Los Angeles)) who was working on an infidelity case when his suspect, the head of the LA Water Department, gets murdered. This PI keeps fucking up the case the more he works it, eventually getting involved with the wife of the dead Water Department guy (in one scene they’re sexually role-playing that he is going to boink one of her personas, but she can’t decide if she’s going to play the “sister” role or the “mother” role, so he slaps her silly - this movie is pretty fucked up that way).
Anyway, at the end of the film, she gets shot, her father gets custody of his granddaughter, and some guy comes up and says “Forget it Jake, it’s Chinatown”.
I think the movie is called “Shenanigans at the LA Water Department, 1937-1938”.
Isn’t that one called “Billy and the Cloneasaurus?”
I like the movie where they have a big war up in the stars. There’s a Death Star and a bunch of Star Destroyers and they’re fighting amongst the stars. I think it’s called “Space Battle.”
I also like the one where a guy wins a UHF station in a poker game and then gives the UHF station to his hapless nephew Geroge who starts out failing at running the UHF station, but then it becomes very popular when Stanley Spadowski gets on the air on the UHF station and talks about his mop. The UHF station gets so popular that the local network affiliate kidnaps Stanley Spadowski and his mop and tries to buy the UHF station and turn it into a parking lot, but then Stanley Spadowski escapes with the help of George and then they get everyone in town to help buy the UHF station so the affiliate doesn’t and then they do get the UHF station and everyone is happy. I think it’s called “Stanley Spadowski’s Mop Saves the Day.”
It’s not really a favorite but it’s always on critics’ Top Ten lists of all time. I think it was based on the real-life story of a big time newspaper tycoon. The name of the movie is The Sled.
I loved that movie about a girl named Alice, who went down a rabbit hole and into a place called Wonderland. It’s called Go Ask Alice, who Doesn’t Live Here Anymore.
TCM showed a classic from 1955 the other day. It starred Ernest Borgnine in his Oscar-winning role as a butcher named Marty. Marty is a lonely guy who’s not too good-looking. Every night his friend asks him “What do you want to do tonight, Marty?”
Until I was an adult and for a while thereafter my favorite movie was about a kid who wore a red nylon windbreaker jacket so as not to be confused with the punks that wore leather jackets. He was in a “chickie run” with one of the punks and the other kid got his sleeve (leather jacket, boo!) caught in the door and went over a cliff and probably died.
It was called Bad Day and Night at the Planetarium.
