Well, I have another for you...I have not seen any of those four movies either. Nor have I seen Young Frankenstein, Monty Python anything, and so on and so on.

I no longer enjoy "I...I too am 5'4". I no longer enjoy "It's a Wonderful Life" because I swear Jimmy Stewart and Donna Reed look exactly like my former in-laws did at that age, and frankly it ruins Christmas for me (not to mention any Jimmy Stewart movie, sadly....although sometimes I find the willpower to overcome my aversion to former FIL and enjoy "Rear Window" or "The Man Who Knew Too Much".) I have never watched "Casablanca" in its entirety. Ingrid Bergman IMHO was and is highly overrated. I always fall asleep before the movie is halfway over. However, "The Princess Bride" is a timeless favorite of mine and recommend it to everyone. As for "The Christmas Story", my office co-workers held an intervention for me so I, too, could share their festivity. Personally, I'm a "White Christmas" gal. But TCS was a good flick, too.MarchHairnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3052406779197845814.post-8731184046519412632006-12-28T03:59:53.000-05:002006-12-28T03:59:53.000-05:00I am going to the store in just a little bit to go...I am going to the store in just a little bit to go get them. I didn't realize there were four. YIKES! I am NOT looking forward to this...<br>I am almost never ever bored...except when I am forced to do something I don't want to do...like watch a movie or TV that is uninteresting to me...like the Hitler, er...I mean, the History Channel. I walked out of Popeye (with Robin Williams) because I was so bored. I love Robin Williams, but I was bored with that movie. I reserve the right to cut off the DVD player if I get bored.<br>Oh, and you ought to know about being in your 30's YEARS ago, too.

I sort of can't, now, knowing what Scott Schwartz went on to do.
