It's happened in the past that I didn't come in early enough for that part of the morning. Oh, well. Fortunately, I only bring gifts that I wouln't mind getting back (if it works out that way). ;)

Good night, jan, and anyone else out there in the darkness! 8)

Post by: Druxy on December 11, 2018, 04:49:14 AM: T.O.D.

My favorite movies of 2018?

None.

I don't go to movie theaters any longer.

(Don't enjoy the theater experience.)

If something interests me, I wait for it to become available at RedBox; air on HBO or Showtime.

I can't think of any of the very few 2018 movies I've seen thus far that are memorable.

Maybe they just don't make memorable movies any longer.

A STAR IS BORN
BOHEMIAN RHAPSODY (although as a real bio it was about as accurate as Carroll Baker's HARLOW - but the music was great and the performances were pretty good)

Those are the only two I have seen at the theatre this year, but I want to see that Melissa McCarthy movie.....

Title: Re: MUNDANE LITTLE MONDAY
Post by: Jennifer on December 11, 2018, 07:04:53 AM: DR TCB, I think the comment made to you about you being better than the rest of the cast has to be taken as a compliment. It was worded very poorly. But obviously if your friend thinks that you were so much better than the others that has to be good, right?
Title: Re: MUNDANE LITTLE MONDAY
Post by: Michael on December 11, 2018, 07:13:46 AM: Happy birthday Ginny. All the best to you.
Title: Re: MUNDANE LITTLE MONDAY
Post by: FJL on December 11, 2018, 07:20:12 AM: TCB, doesn't it seem the person was trying to pay you a big compliment, yet for some reason felt a need to make clear their feeling about the others?

But that could take its place with lines like "Everybody noticed you." or "whatever they're paying you, it's not enough." For this show, there's been enough feedback for you to know it's a quality show, and you are so important among the key reasons it's good.

Yes, you said what I'm feeling better than I did! That sums it up beautifully.

Post by: Amy on December 11, 2018, 08:43:32 AM: TOD:

Mark and I rarely see movies in the theater. I just wait for them to come on TV. But this year, we saw "Incredibles 2" (I know it's for kids, but I like movies in 3-D).
And we just saw "Bohemian Rhapsody" a couple weeks ago. I liked it, but I was disappointed that it was really a Freddie Mercury movie, rather than a Queen movie. I was a huge Queen fan when I was a teenager, but my favorite Queen was always Brian May, not Freddie. I made a mix tape of all Queen songs sung by Brian May and I would play it for friends who weren't particularly big Queen fans and they would always ask, "Who's this?" because it was completely unrecognizable as Queen. And they all really like it.

That said, I did love The Death of Stalin, RBG, Three Identical Strangers and Paddington 2, which somehow is the highest rated film this year on Rotten Tomatoes.

I want to catch up soon with BlacKkKlansman, Anna and the Apocalypse and Mary Poppins Returns.

I actually don't think I saw a movie in the theater this year. May be a first for me.

That said, I did love The Death of Stalin, RBG, Three Identical Strangers and Paddington 2, which somehow is the highest rated film this year on Rotten Tomatoes.

I want to catch up soon with BlacKkKlansman, Anna and the Apocalypse and Mary Poppins Returns.

Paddington 2 is my favorite movie of 2018!

I have had problems with my right wrist since getting the cast off. I wear a wrist support when doing my exercises or strenuous work. Have you tried that? I think leaving it on too long back fires.

Once we went to Disney World when the kids were young. Keith took Craig to the one in France but I didn't go. I expect Hong Kong to be a small version of Disneyland.

Fred, your book arrived in the mail today! Thank you. I'm sure I'll enjoy it!

Thank you so much for what you meant in 2018; for example, your being there in the bad weather in San Antonio at the screening in April helped us live it in a way we couldn't have had otherwise.
Title: Re: MUNDANE LITTLE MONDAY
Post by: FJL on December 11, 2018, 07:09:02 PM: For those who enjoy these things, the first is of course a hoot, the second so unexpectedly touching.

A timeless hoot - If I Had a Hammer - Cebbie Reynolds
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ng2Ls4OA2k4

Pete Seeger Watches Debbie Reynolds Sing 'If I Had A Hammer' 11/22/12
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eoLR4tC73hU

I wonder if the person taking the video expected Pete Seeger to react in horror, but it feels more like wonder that the song which at first was not a huge chartbuster became one so much later when Peter Paul and Mary decided to do it and made it top 10. (and of course, we know it was even bigger on the charts when Trini Lopez covered it, getting to #3).
