Comments: Movie Trivia: Who played the title role in "The African Queen"?
Comments: Hey Ron Barker, you want to jump in here? Ron & his wife live in Orange, Virginia!! Don't know if it was raining there yesterday or not?
Comments: Ron Barker. Doesn't he live in Ovilla? Susan, I was only bluffing. Linda, I can't believe you thought that was her back yard. I was teasing you Susan.
Comments: OK, my favorite movie is "Gone With The Wind." I liked "Schlindler's List" and Saving Private Ryan" but could only watch them once as to the violence. I really like the foreign film that came out about 10 years ago called "A Good or Fun Life." The time frame of the movie was WWII. I thought that it was wonderful and so touching. I thought that "Ghost" was a wonderful movie. A movie I saw a couple of years ago called "Snow Walker" (I think) with Barry Pepper (the sniper in "Saving Private Ryan"), was a wonderful movie and one that you think about afterwards. Susan, you sly dog you. I bet that if you were in Sandy McGee's poker game, you could bluff all those guys.
Comments: Thank Goodness for the Sunshine this mrng!! McMakin . . . what Ron are you referring to in Ovilla?
Comments: Ronney McKee, you a card player? This will be a nickle-dime bet deal. Small bets, BIG B.S., and I know you will keep the game lively, cause you're a fool, that's why we love ya.
Comments: Ron, was there any flooding in Ovilla? Glad the sun is shining today to dry up the soaked ground. I went out to the mail box around 4:30 yesterday and there were worms all over the sidewalk, they were water logged. I don't think I have ever seen that many. McGee have fun in the mud today. Maybe you need some of those wadding pants that fishermen wear. Morning Gary D 
Comments: Isn't it funny how different subjects bring 'em out of the woodwork. Good to see you post Ron. You need to join in more often. Wonder where Buddy is. Maybe he's off fishin' again.
Comments: Favorite movie? I'd have to think about it, but what comes to mind are "Stars Wars, Episode IV", the music and opening scenes of aircraft/deck activity in "Top Gun", and probably "Patton". At least I've been to some of the Patton places (this life and have been to his burial site in Luxembourg). My kids and I lived a deprived life in Spain in the late 1970's. AAFES didn't buy Stars Wars for distribution in Europe. Guys started showing up with Luke Skywalker, Darth Vader, R2D2 and C3PIO name tags. (No Princess Leia name tags then). I knew we were missing something. So, when we came back to the World in 1979, we went looking for the movie. By the time we saw it, they were running trailers for the second movie. I made sure that we saw the third movie before we went back to Spain in 1983.
Comments: What about "Giant", that was one long movie, but it was worth it. Wind was blowing awfully hard this morning, kept changing lanes.
Comments: After Clockwork Orange, I am a BIG fan of a wonderful European movie called "EUROPA EUROPA." I can't watch it without getting emotional. One of the best films ever made, in my humble opinion.
Comments: OK, if we are naming our favorite movies, I will add one of mine. It's not a movie for everyone. Like it or not, it was a very intellectual movie disguised in so many ways. But, when you analyzed it, it was very deep with a very important message. AND, it was nominated for Best Picture of the Year. I've seen it at least 50 times and never tire of it. I wonder if anyone else in our class found its message fascinating! My favorite movie? Well, my little droogs, it is: A Clockwork Orange
Comments: ...and "Pans Labyrinth"...unreal movie.
Comments: Ok, I'll confess to my favorite movies...generally, they're older. Anything my brother was in (the movies were actually pretty bad, but he's my brother and he ain't heavy); also, the Princess Bride(watched it twice this week alone), The Searchers, Silverado, Usual Suspects, Pulp Fiction and anything in the 1950's horror genre.
Comments: Slammin' Sam Smith, gotta leave your body guards at the door during the card game. We need you with us, so Happy Jack will have some one to talk to. |
