That seems to have been lifted out of a porn script

Wasn't the HHW term for that a "special interest" film?

I fixed it

 ;)

Perfect fix,  Now no one will ever know what you originally typed.  :)

I'm a little more than an hour into South Pacific. The screenplay is too verbose (maybe because it's the road show version with all of those cut scenes restored). The music is lush. The dubbing is sloppy. Mitzi is a little too Mitzi. But after hearing all the hoopla about Josh Logan's use of color filters, I'm surprised those don't bother me.

I'm enjoying it more than I thought I would.

I've never seen Love Actually.  So, should I?

Yes, absolutely!

I know that my sister and her daughter both really like it.  Maybe even my mom.  But I've seen some articles (headlines only...I haven't read any) that say the movie's not really a great love story.  I just put a hold on the library's copy.  I guess I'll make up my own mind. ;)

They'll think SpellCheck dropped by HHW after his Happy Hour, which just lasted about five hours.

Strange, but I've never seen the film versions of Carousel, the newer State Farm or The King and I all the way through. This box set doesn't have both State Fairs, but it has the others.

Oh, boy. They arrived on Bali Hai just in time for choreography night. Amazing how this always happens in movies.

"State Farm" has a number similar to "The Boy Next Door" - just like a cute neighbor, State Farm is there.

I hear "State Farm" is all premium seats.

Oh it's not a love story...it's a whole passel of love stories

Romantic love

Illicit love

Filial love

Sacrificial love

Unrequited love

First love

Love against reason

Love that transcends language

Lost love

Second chances for love

Love that transcends social class

Love between parent and child

Love  between friends

And the aforementioned fantasy story that doesn't fit with all the rest

Hey, someone go to this site and inquire about booking What If.  I have no memory of ever giving this to ANYONE to license, nor could I have without securing certain rights to songs that I would not do were I doing this now.  This site was last updated eleven years ago so maybe it's a moot point, but it would be nice to know - they've printed all the lyrics to my What If stuff and I'm not at all certain I would have given them THOSE rights either.

And then perhaps Michael Shayne can explain to me why he let the domain name of brucekimmel.com go without telling me or asking me if I'd like to have it.  I am seriously baffled.

Well, this is interesting.  Robert De Niro: Robert Mueller, We Need to Hear More.

You said that your investigation’s work “speaks for itself.” It doesn’t.

George, your niece and chickens are so cute!  I didn't know chickens grew that fast.  Please tell me they are going to be the guests of honor at a chicken dinner.
