"The Neverending Story" does end, eventually.  It's quite entertaining for a one-time viewing, IMO.  Wonderful underscore,  too.

Good Morning!

I'm up, I'm up... And it looks like it could be another weird weather day here in NYC.

There's a whole generation of "kids" who grew up on this movie, still love this movie and still watch this movie regularly. Although, now those "kids" usually watch the movie while in an "enhanced" state of mind and body.  It's also one of those movies on the "Midnight Movie" circuit.

As for myself, I don't think I've ever seen it all the way through. However, I do remember it being in heavy rotation on HBO, and I'm guessing that's what may have turned me off about it.

I was actually surprised at the brevity of The Neverending Story - if you remove the end credits it runs just over ninety minutes.

I've stayed too long at the fair! Time to leave Toyland and head back home. 

I think I accomplished quite a lot today, so I'm not complaining. When I get home, I have to vacuum the apartment and tidy up the place.

I've actually seen it, don't remember much about it.  I just heard the joke on a BBC radio comedy quiz about a month ago and, given the opportunity of the set-up you'd given me, couldn't resist.

When I went down, I began watching the latest episode of SPARTACUS. Some new gladiators-in-training on display, but it was certainly an uber-violent episode.

Also, every single female character, with the exception of one slave, is so catty and selfish and condescending. It's VERY monotonous.

Then I skimmed through Thursday's episode of AS THE WORLD TURNS (delayed here due to the ACC Basketball Tournament). This is the episode where it was revealed that Dr. Pill is gay. From here on in, it's supposed to begin to get interesting between him and Luke. He and Luke are on Friday's show (which I'll watch tomorrow).

For some reason, the DVR did not record the CASTLE rerun from last night (if there was one; maybe there wasn't). Anyway, while I ate lunch, I watched Thursday night's THE OFFICE. It was an OK episode; Kathy Bates was guest starring again, and she always makes things interesting and fun. She should do more comedy.

Then I spent 171 minutes of my life I'll never get back watching IN VANDA'S ROOM, almost three hours of watching heroin addicts smoking and/or injecting themselves. There was really no story, just a bunch of random scenes with Vanda and her sister constantly smoking smack and a group of guys living in a hovel shooting up. The barrio is being torn down around them, so the guys have to try to find somewhere else to live. It's just an abysmal viewing experience.
