lol just got an image of you arguing with a client over what movie to watch ......what if he brings "Dude where's my car" think you would have to send him packing

Lol xx

No arguments :

those that should graduate to Movie Night , would be few favoured ones with clear chemistry and like for each other xx

Eh , and if we might indulge in a bit stronger than polite white wine , who knows , might willingly watch Animal House lol x

[Bloomsday]

My original list stands - but to add maybe have to go by Genres as that were not represented

[B]est romantic comedy - Annie Hall
[B]est entertaining blockbuster - Any of the three original [I]ndiana Jones films
[B]est horror - The Shining best kids' film/ animation - up

I know it's a bit of an old man's cliché at this stage but I wonder the same thing all too often. A lot of the movies I've been watching recently were made before I was born. Having said that, there's still some great movies nowadays, if one doesn't mind dealing with subtitles. So many good movies overlooked by people not being able to read and watch at the same time

My sense of humour has always been a bit dark for what generally makes it to main stream. Bad Santa, The Big Lebowski, Killer Joe, Dr. Strangelove, those kind of movies. Maybe it's the level of thought that goes into it. Or maybe I'm slightly twisted

You're twisted lol x

: Amores Perros -- one of the best x

: City of God x

I remember a film made in 1993 called" The House of the sprits" with a host of stars.Jermey Irons,Glen Close,Meryel Streep.It was a film that had everything.

My sense of humour is similar.

While I can't put it into the comedy bracket, it is part comedy part tragedy and frequently very uncomfortable viewing "Happiness" is definitely the darkest film I've ever seen.
