It is so lovely. Rebekah Send a noteboard - 28/10/2010 10:48:15 AM
is Frank Capra's It's a Wonderful life. I want to watch it. I bought it on DVD a couple of years ago. But my brain, somewhere along the line, keeps reading it as Franz Kafka's It's a Wonderful Life. And I think that's a movie I would like to watch more :P

Real reason is that my wife has seen it and didn't like it, so I need to get a night in December when the kids are in bed and my wife is either out or busy elsewhere and I'll get round to watching it.

How can you not want to watch Jimmy Stewart? He's so marvellous.

Those last two are inexcusable. No wonder the Von Trapps were fleeing from your people. TaskmasterJack - 27/10/2010 02:14:56 AM 844 Views
A lot. It's that anti-hype thing. nossy - 27/10/2010 03:27:00 AM 852 Views
Found a better list. nossy - 27/10/2010 03:31:53 AM 913 Views
Watch them, now. *NM* jh - 27/10/2010 06:51:25 AM 399 Views
Psh, better ironclad - 27/10/2010 09:09:27 AM 875 Views
Pft, where's your list? nossy - 28/10/2010 07:23:48 PM 659 Views
I wouldn't be able to make a list that contains "important" stuff that means nothing to me ironclad - 28/10/2010 08:36:39 PM 875 Views

I don't like Woody Allen either, but I'm not sure I've given him a chance. nossy - 28/10/2010 08:10:17 PM 814 Views
Unlike the two haters above, I actually rather liked Sunset Boulevard. Legolas - 27/10/2010 07:59:30 PM 899 Views
I've got two or more votes for it. nossy - 28/10/2010 08:11:19 PM 905 Views
Yeah, and the two votes against it haven't actually seen it, so... Legolas - 28/10/2010 08:57:17 PM 857 Views
Singin' in the Rain Rebekah - 28/10/2010 10:45:08 AM 834 Views
Um, I'm not kidding at all that I'll take you up on that. We'll send the boys out. *NM* nossy - 28/10/2010 08:14:14 PM 524 Views
Excellent. Rebekah - 28/10/2010 08:34:58 PM 764 Views
How can you not have seen Singing In The Rain? You should watch it tonight Mark - 28/10/2010 03:36:29 PM 877 Views
I can't. I have to wait until I'm in Scotland. nossy - 28/10/2010 08:39:33 PM 783 Views
Well as long as you watch it Mark - 29/10/2010 02:45:19 PM 806 Views
And about these... Legolas - 28/10/2010 09:09:11 PM 992 Views
I watched half of Blade Runner a couple of weeks ago and then got bored. Darth_Katie - 27/10/2010 03:43:47 AM 808 Views
I've tried to watch it 3 times now :/ *NM* Deadsy - 27/10/2010 08:35:31 AM 414 Views
What's wrong with you people? *NM* ironclad - 27/10/2010 09:10:02 AM 444 Views
In their defense, Blade Runner is kinda boring by today's film standards. *NM* TaskmasterJack - 27/10/2010 11:31:07 PM 461 Views
For me, the one that always gets people is Braveheart. Craig - 27/10/2010 03:46:33 AM 857 Views
postponing that one to the next century is a good idea. *NM* jh - 27/10/2010 06:52:03 AM 343 Views
Yeah, you're not missing that much... it's fun, and spectacular, but mostly just a popcorn movie. *NM* Legolas - 27/10/2010 08:00:04 PM 435 Views
Don't watch it. It is appalling. Rebekah - 28/10/2010 10:46:53 AM 867 Views
Okay, now I gotta step in and say: One of the most enthralling and best films of the 90s *NM* ironclad - 29/10/2010 05:14:22 PM 452 Views
Jar-Jar-lover. *NM* jh - 29/10/2010 11:00:35 PM 414 Views

Fair enough. Rebekah - 29/10/2010 11:29:51 PM 720 Views
I liked it a lot, not sure if it's one of the best of the 90s though. BlackAdder - 30/10/2010 02:20:17 AM 964 Views
It surprising because it's still aired on TV fairly frequently BlackAdder - 30/10/2010 02:16:41 AM 1003 Views
Who wants to watch a movie with commercials? Craig - 30/10/2010 03:55:25 AM 783 Views

I'll see if I can list a few off the top of my head. Palatine - 27/10/2010 04:43:20 PM 804 Views
I find the inclusion of Jackass under classic/famous/beloved films to be hideously ridiculous. *NM* TaskmasterJack - 27/10/2010 11:36:25 PM 405 Views
As do I. Palatine - 28/10/2010 05:16:51 PM 877 Views
The first three of yours, and a few other big ones. Legolas - 27/10/2010 08:05:12 PM 917 Views
Wizard of Oz and at least one of the Terminator films are the most surprising. TaskmasterJack - 27/10/2010 11:35:04 PM 785 Views
Wizard of Oz is a very American thing, but yes, Terminator would shock people here too. Legolas - 27/10/2010 11:57:25 PM 860 Views
I first saw the Terminator films just this past summer. Craig - 28/10/2010 07:13:51 AM 794 Views
