You've seen When the cats away, right?That's hard to believe.
I hate to see KP gone for a bit, but on the other hand I could really use an extra week on this...

The unplanned vacation is no fun, but I was out of town on a real, planned vacation and behind on research, so a bit of delay is okay with me.KP is enjoying an unplanned vacation from the forums and says this may be delayed a bit...
Great movies. Key Largo is an incredible collection of actors: Bogat, Bacall, Robinson, Claire Trevor and Lionel Barrymore.While I was watching The Big Sleep and setting the DVR to record Key Largo tonight, my wife informed me that I needed to stop recording old movies because she was tired of our DVR looking like that of an 80 year old. So, I sympathize.
Yeah my DVR is basically a library of TCM movies and all the Food Network/Bravo/HGTV that my wife recordsMrs. Eephus loves old pre-code dramas so our DVR looks like that of a 95 year old.
Yeah, I wonder what he posted. I hope it was funny at least! Also, thank god he waited until the fantasy football music draft was over.That's hard to believe.

That’s pretty soft. I assumed it was insulting a poster in the politics forum.

Is this a movie title? No.You've seen When the cats away, right?
What's the Wallace & Gromit from this year? I checked Wiki and did not see any 1996 releases. Closest I see is "A Close Shave" in 1995.ok... separated into tiers. a ton I really like this year... gonna be tough to narrow it down.
- Wallace & Gromit
Very good. Not top tier but worthy of double digitsSo what do we think about "Bound"?
That's such crap as it changes the entire context of what he said. If that's what got him banned that moderator needs a T.O. to learn how to read.WTF? Moderator removed the rest of quote. Big difference between "as horrible as you" and "as horrible as you described".

That's paint...IIRC. It's been a while.suffered through some not great acting- although for both leads, their best performances IMO.
IIRC, the tone and look of it felt like a coen bro movie... in a good way. I remember a scene with spilled milk (if I'm remembering the right movie here) and dripping blood that was absolutely fantastic.
I won't be judging it on how it holds up... but I wonder how it holds up- haven't seen it since the theaters.
I was thinking about going the opposite of the countdown reviews such as...We should help @KarmaPolice out and post some prospective crummy reviews for movies likely to get ranked. Or make up crummy reviews of our own.
I just went in there for a few minutes to see what the fuss was and why KP got a vacation.You need to stay out of the political forum. The Shark Pool provides more civil intelligent discourse.
A depressing infuriating hellscapeI just went in there for a few minutes to see what the fuss was and why KP got a vacation.
Absolute #### show in there. Oh man. Had to make one post correcting Tim about the reality of TARP....and GTF outta there.
Well crap. I've been looking for a 1996 movie to watch for this poll and have never seen this. But I deeply despise Tom Hanks as an actor (might be fine as a person - dunno). Tough call.I don't vote in these polls because I just don't watch enough movies, but this year - of those I've seen - would have "When We Were Kings" & "That Thing You Do" getting max points from me.
I think "TTYD" is a kind of perfect movie. It's a little corny and the stakes on the surface aren't high. But - in an era with Tarentino grunge and Merchant Ivory frills - I think Hanks' film holds its own. It's funny, sad, silly, true-feeling, sneakily-intelligent, nostalgic - and, above all, sweet. It's obvious this was a labor of love for Tom Hanks and I will stop whatever I'm doing to watch it if I run across it playing somewhere.
He's not the lead in this, or anything close to it.Well crap. I've been looking for a 1996 movie to watch for this poll and have never seen this. But I deeply despise Tom Hanks as an actor (might be fine as a person - dunno). Tough call.
Not max, but "That Thing You Do" will be getting some good points from me too. Nothing too deep, but just a simple, enjoyable film -- kind of a reflection of the song at the center of it.I don't vote in these polls because I just don't watch enough movies, but this year - of those I've seen - would have "When We Were Kings" & "That Thing You Do" getting max points from me.

Just submitted list. Between NFL, NCAA, and WWE, won't have any time to watch any movies before the deadline.
How has it been going back to work?Damn, I had forgotten about this until I go two messages today with lists. Not a good sign.
Between starting work and helping the older one get off to a good start, I haven't had time to watch a new movie in a couple weeks. Good this this poll and the next are easy one for me (not for narrowing down, but at least I have seen a ton of the movies), and hopefully things will settle down enough to where I can have time and stay awake through a movie again.
Ok. It's not hard work (help manage the local store of a fast food restaurant chain), but just not used to that plus all the Daddy stuff, so my mind and body are revolting a little bit. I keep passing out about 9 since I have been getting up about 5:30 to get everything ready and get the kid to daycare before work.How has it been going back to work?
