No. National Treasure would be on my Movies That Don't Suck channel. It is bad, but it is fun and it does not suck.

I have to reclaim baglady jr from the neighbors for our dinner-at-the-movies-with-drinks-family-night outing later this evening.

Dinner plan was modified (based upon a cursory analysis of pasta in the pantry). Macaroni and cheese with broccoli and chicken; remarkably not horrible in terms of calories or fat despite being the stuff from Kraft that comes with the gel-like cheese.

I much prefer their powder to the gel crap cheese that they use in the newer versions.

I was referring to mom and I alone, e.g. "before anyone else arrives".

I was going to do the 4-cheese Carapelli and hamburgers but this had a more urgent "use by" date.

No, as the girl is hot.

Stunning. And she's doing an American accent, she's German. Diane Kruger

She was also in a pretty good WWI movie about the Christmas Day truce in 1914. Joyeux Noël

Today is Clive Barker movie day for me. I just finished watching "Hellraiser" and am about to start "Hellraiser II". The first one was interrupred 3 times by power failures since it's essentially been a full-day thunderstorm outside.

Plus1, since you're the authority, do you approve of my movie choices? If I don't go out tonight, I may switch gears and watch "Tropic Thunder". :cool:

What was the value of said tool? It isn't that hard to figure out the routings IMO. The tool wasn't that useful for me.

For me, the tool let me quickly check flights and schedules without having to use ITA or KVS. It was a time saving utility.

The Cell is kinda terrible.

Tonight's the Bristol night race for me. I've been singing The Dovells since this morning (even though "Bristol Stomp" isn't about TN/VA). :p

Are you creating the channel of movies that don't suck? Didn't think so ;)

I loved Virtuosity...great breakthrough role for Russel Crowe. The Cell was a good movie but J-Lo didn't do it for me. That being said, Vincent D'Onofrio was fantastic in it.

I'm one of those movie geeks who hears one line and knows what movie it's from. With the amount of brainpower being wasted on that and the same ability with classic rock music, it's a wonder I have the capacity to tie my own shoes without drooling on the laces. :rolleyes:

I can't argue with that.

They actually write that into Treasure.

I've yet to actually see you tie yor shoes. I'm not sure I believe. :p

And, yes, I'm pretty close. I like quoting obscure references to movies that aren't really popular, or at least quotes that aren't well known.
