6. Mine, too. Probably my favorite of his movies.
In fact, I might schedule the DVD for the next time I have the requisite time available.

It's brilliant.

5. I just saw that movie for the first time and
Edited on Tue Mar-28-06 07:41 PM by Sequoia
it was crazy. How can a man who watches TV all the time not know about kissing women, etc. Was he the bastard child. I watched it because it was filmed at the Biltmore Estate where I've been quite a few times and my great grandfather helped build it (along with slews of others). It was kinda neat to see those rooms and the grounds where I went as a youngster. Back then there was a dairy farm where the best ice cream came from. Now it's a whin---ery, and cost a fortune to visit, everyone who works there has to have a master's degree. Plus, the lines to see the place are endless. I used to breeze through those rooms and pretended I lived there, it was that easy.

9. "Murder By Death" is easily one of the funniest movies
I've ever seen.

"Two two twain?"

"Quiet. Moose speaking."
"Moose IS speaking! Remember your GD pronouns!!"
