It is so lovely. Rebekah Send a noteboard - 28/10/2010 10:48:15 AM
is Frank Capra's It's a Wonderful life. I want to watch it. I bought it on DVD a couple of years ago. But my brain, somewhere along the line, keeps reading it as Franz Kafka's It's a Wonderful Life. And I think that's a movie I would like to watch more :P

Real reason is that my wife has seen it and didn't like it, so I need to get a night in December when the kids are in bed and my wife is either out or busy elsewhere and I'll get round to watching it.

How can you not want to watch Jimmy Stewart? He's so marvellous.

Too many to list Stephen - 27/10/2010 01:31:01 AM 1039 Views
I remember a top 100 list posted a while back BlackAdder - 28/10/2010 05:27:44 PM 1241 Views
Those last two are inexcusable. No wonder the Von Trapps were fleeing from your people. TaskmasterJack - 27/10/2010 02:14:56 AM 1102 Views
A lot. It's that anti-hype thing. nossy - 27/10/2010 03:27:00 AM 1097 Views
Found a better list. nossy - 27/10/2010 03:31:53 AM 1170 Views
Watch them, now. *NM* jh - 27/10/2010 06:51:25 AM 513 Views
Psh, better ironclad - 27/10/2010 09:09:27 AM 1103 Views
Pft, where's your list? nossy - 28/10/2010 07:23:48 PM 908 Views
I wouldn't be able to make a list that contains "important" stuff that means nothing to me ironclad - 28/10/2010 08:36:39 PM 1098 Views

I don't like Woody Allen either, but I'm not sure I've given him a chance. nossy - 28/10/2010 08:10:17 PM 1074 Views
Unlike the two haters above, I actually rather liked Sunset Boulevard. Legolas - 27/10/2010 07:59:30 PM 1149 Views
I've got two or more votes for it. nossy - 28/10/2010 08:11:19 PM 1157 Views
Yeah, and the two votes against it haven't actually seen it, so... Legolas - 28/10/2010 08:57:17 PM 1114 Views
Singin' in the Rain Rebekah - 28/10/2010 10:45:08 AM 1074 Views
Um, I'm not kidding at all that I'll take you up on that. We'll send the boys out. *NM* nossy - 28/10/2010 08:14:14 PM 631 Views
Excellent. Rebekah - 28/10/2010 08:34:58 PM 1017 Views
How can you not have seen Singing In The Rain? You should watch it tonight Mark - 28/10/2010 03:36:29 PM 1120 Views
I can't. I have to wait until I'm in Scotland. nossy - 28/10/2010 08:39:33 PM 1029 Views
Well as long as you watch it Mark - 29/10/2010 02:45:19 PM 1046 Views
And about these... Legolas - 28/10/2010 09:09:11 PM 1238 Views
I watched half of Blade Runner a couple of weeks ago and then got bored. Darth_Katie - 27/10/2010 03:43:47 AM 1051 Views
I've tried to watch it 3 times now :/ *NM* Deadsy - 27/10/2010 08:35:31 AM 534 Views
What's wrong with you people? *NM* ironclad - 27/10/2010 09:10:02 AM 542 Views
In their defense, Blade Runner is kinda boring by today's film standards. *NM* TaskmasterJack - 27/10/2010 11:31:07 PM 583 Views
For me, the one that always gets people is Braveheart. Craig - 27/10/2010 03:46:33 AM 1084 Views
postponing that one to the next century is a good idea. *NM* jh - 27/10/2010 06:52:03 AM 462 Views
Yeah, you're not missing that much... it's fun, and spectacular, but mostly just a popcorn movie. *NM* Legolas - 27/10/2010 08:00:04 PM 561 Views
Don't watch it. It is appalling. Rebekah - 28/10/2010 10:46:53 AM 1096 Views
Okay, now I gotta step in and say: One of the most enthralling and best films of the 90s *NM* ironclad - 29/10/2010 05:14:22 PM 564 Views
Jar-Jar-lover. *NM* jh - 29/10/2010 11:00:35 PM 531 Views
Preach it. *NM* Rebekah - 29/10/2010 11:12:03 PM 589 Views

Fair enough. Rebekah - 29/10/2010 11:29:51 PM 964 Views
I liked it a lot, not sure if it's one of the best of the 90s though. BlackAdder - 30/10/2010 02:20:17 AM 1235 Views
It surprising because it's still aired on TV fairly frequently BlackAdder - 30/10/2010 02:16:41 AM 1306 Views
Who wants to watch a movie with commercials? Craig - 30/10/2010 03:55:25 AM 1018 Views
I liked it. nossy - 30/10/2010 05:49:14 PM 928 Views

You're just mean because of FantasyFootball *NM* ironclad - 27/10/2010 12:06:46 PM 546 Views
No! snoopcester - 27/10/2010 12:35:19 PM 1090 Views

How long until someone had to bring it up? ironclad - 27/10/2010 12:46:16 PM 1087 Views
Pfft, you obviously never found out about my letter to the German government Mark - 27/10/2010 01:00:40 PM 1019 Views
Good point, there is no hope for him snoopcester - 27/10/2010 02:08:39 PM 994 Views

I'll see if I can list a few off the top of my head. Palatine - 27/10/2010 04:43:20 PM 1054 Views
I find the inclusion of Jackass under classic/famous/beloved films to be hideously ridiculous. *NM* TaskmasterJack - 27/10/2010 11:36:25 PM 526 Views
As do I. Palatine - 28/10/2010 05:16:51 PM 1122 Views
The first three of yours, and a few other big ones. Legolas - 27/10/2010 08:05:12 PM 1158 Views
Wizard of Oz and at least one of the Terminator films are the most surprising. TaskmasterJack - 27/10/2010 11:35:04 PM 1038 Views
Wizard of Oz is a very American thing, but yes, Terminator would shock people here too. Legolas - 27/10/2010 11:57:25 PM 1116 Views
I first saw the Terminator films just this past summer. Craig - 28/10/2010 07:13:51 AM 1045 Views

For some reason, I've decided you should watch North to Alaska. *NM* nossy - 28/10/2010 02:30:13 AM 474 Views
have you seen Gone With the Wind? random thoughts - 28/10/2010 07:01:00 PM 1103 Views
Yes. Love it. Why d'you ask? *NM* Legolas - 28/10/2010 08:47:15 PM 544 Views
