butterscotchgreer Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 Good work, MissTea! But how long will the spell last? i dunno, i'd read the directions, but it wasnt in a package, we made it ourselves!!! oh no!! lets just hope it wont wear off too soon before he sees the movie, or we could just make another batch. heehee! or there's always the alternative of tying him up and gaging him with a cupcake. take your pick, i have more. heehee!

FrankGrimes Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 Hiya, ButtersweetGRACE -- youre admitting to wanting to watch it now/ oh goodie!! april he is going to watch pride and prejudice!!!!! and all it took was some vicious negotiating and my puppy dog eyes. heehee! ....but frankie darlin', you can go to the roof with john doe! thats not good! please dont go! I'm gonna watch Pride and Prejudice right after Miss Goddess watches No Country for Old Men. Zodiac is not trashy. That's classy. yucky! You haven't seen the film! It's full of romance. Gloria and Grace do so much more for you than GREER. the idea of you even mentioning a thing! gloria i dont mind as least she shows a little emotion every once in while, its miss impassive i have issues with. heehee! greer shows plenty of emotion! she could make you cry your heart out! goodness. Gloria AND Grace show a lot more than emotion in their films. Greer falls in love with a guy and then just leaves him standing in the dark, all alone. Now I see why you love her so much! there's always the alternative of tying him up and gaging him with a cupcake. take your pick, i have more. heehee! For such a sweet girl, you sure do take great joy in tying me up and then gagging me. And you have more? You're talking cupcakes, right? Do you know of anyone who could make chocolate chip cookies? By the way, did you notice how caring and loving the Charade Goddess is with me? You didn't want me to go to the roof but she couldn't wait for me to get to the roof so that she could push me off.

EW!! i dont blame her for saying until donkeys fly! i dont wanna watch such a horrid TRASHY movie either. heehee! so i wont watch it until little piglets fly. You haven't seen the film! It's full of romance. yeah, that's just what i was thinking! its full of romance? among other things i dont wish to witness. Gloria AND Grace show a lot more than emotion in their films. Greer falls in love with a guy and then just leaves him standing in the dark, all alone. Now I see why you love her so much! that's not fair! it was my computer! i didnt mean not to say goodnight. april help me! For such a sweet girl, you sure do take great joy in tying me up and then gagging me. And you have more? You're talking cupcakes, right?

laffite Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 >Maine is for the simple, elemental pleasures in life: gobbling up a succulent lobster roll; inhaling the restorative sea air; falling asleep to the sound of the ocean in your ears, climbing a lighthouse, strolling the woods for blueberries. Ah, this is why people who live in Maine are so nice. You folks have a lovely life up there. A few years ago I temped as a survey taker and made calls all over. Everybody wanted to call Maine because it was so pleasant. The people were so nice and cordial. Conversely, can anyone guess which was the least likable place to call: NYC Boston Mass LA Dade County Don't anyone answer and we'll just leave it alone ... but I'll say this much. It wasn't NYC. *Bronxgirl* I couldn't help but noting also your liking for ships. Me too. In my city (the other corner, our two cities are about as far apart as you can get) we have two beauties at our Maritime Museum. The top picture is the famed Star of India, one of the few iron-hulled ships left. It still sails the harbor once a year to great fanfare. The bottom is the HMS Surprise the exact ship that was used in SOME of the scenes from Master and Commander They sit right next to each other, in fact, the top picture was taken on deck of the Surprise Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't want you watching No Country for Old Men unless someone took the remote control away from you so that you couldn't fast-forward. You and what's her name shouldn't be allowed to use FF. yeah, that's just what i was thinking! its full of romance? among other things i dont wish to witness. The "lover's lane" scene is very romantic. It reminded me of the Random Harvest picnic scene. You'd love it. Trust me. that's not fair! it was my computer! i didnt mean not to say goodnight. Just like Paul Scott, I grew accustomed to such oceanic treatment. april help me! Who is this imaginary friend of yours? Well, whoever they are, they cannot help you. They can only hurt you. and for a sweet frankie, you surely take pride in picking on me! Pick on you? I've done no such thing! You're the one who is drowning me, tying me up, and gagging me. You remind me of Smithy, the serial killer from Random Harvest. By the way, did you notice how caring and loving the Charade Goddess is with me? You didn't want me to go to the roof but she couldn't wait for me to get to the roof so that she could push me off. okay well since she doesnt mind, ill climb up there and help her! heehee! What?!

MissGoddess Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 Why thank you, T! The pictures in that blog are really gorgeous. I hear that recent changes in the Republic dvd powers-that-be may mean there is a good chance The Quiet Man will get a decent restoration soon. I hope so. It's a film that deserves to be pristine.

Bronxgirl48 Posted April 1, 2008 Share Posted April 1, 2008 I know which place is the least likable, but my lips are sealed. (you're correct, it's not NYC) laffite, I LOVE your beautiful ships.

FrankGrimes Posted April 1, 2008 Share Posted April 1, 2008 Good Evenin', Bronx Blossom! -- Did you catch Laffite's post to you at the bottom of this page? My silly foolishness ended up burying his very good post. I hope you check it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bronxgirl48 Posted April 1, 2008 Share Posted April 1, 2008 Get out of that pumpkin patch, you'll catch cold. Yes, I saw laffites's gorgeous ships! (and your QUIET MAN screep caps are beautiful) Was that his post you referred to? I'm tired. I came home from the ESL class tonight. I was trying to explain to my Pakistani student what Mr. Potato Head is. She didn't understand. I was introducing the spelling of fruits and vegetables, then got caught up in my own whimsy. For instance, I drew Casper the Ghost and they thought it was an amoeba. I saw THE HAPPIEST MILLIONAIRE once. There is nothing as unfunny as Fred MacMurray trying to be eccentric. Probably the only movie where you'll see Greer Garson holding an alligator. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laffite Posted April 1, 2008 Share Posted April 1, 2008 >...there is a good chance The Quiet Man will get a decent restoration soon. I hope so. It might have been a hazy image but it was quite engrossing. I really enjoyed it. Should I even admit that I have yet to see this movie? I'm almost embarrassed. Your slide show is a good advertisement for it. I wonder how long it would take to do a whole movie that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bronxgirl48 Posted April 1, 2008 Share Posted April 1, 2008 Whenever Audrey is asked by Walter Matthau in CHARADE if she wants a chicken or liverwurst sandwich, I always tell the screen: Take them both! The running gag in the movie is that she keeps eating whenever she's under stress but never gains an ounce, much to the consternation and envy of her friend.. Also, I can never figure out what it is she's eating at the restaurant she goes to with Walter. The waiter brings it; it looks either like a souffle or soup or a parfait, but in this instance she doesn't touch it; only smokes a cigarette nervously..

FrankGrimes Posted April 1, 2008 Share Posted April 1, 2008 Hey, Laffite -- How's it goin'? I've enjoyed reading your posts on the board the past few weeks. And thanks for the WMP11 screen cap instructions. I passed them onto Miss Goddess. It might have been a hazy image but it was quite engrossing. I really enjoyed it. Thanks. Miss G is very correct, the film would really jump off the screen if the image was sharp. It's a shame that it is not. Should I even admit that I have yet to see this movie? I'm almost embarrassed. Ummm, no. I'll slink away now. Your slide show is a good advertisement for it. I wonder how long it would take to do a whole movie that way. It would take quite a bit of time and patience. The toughest part is attempting to capture movement in a still. Movement creates blur and I don't like the look of blur. Sometimes it's the only way to capture a particular moment, though. I have found that watching a film with subtitles on is very enlightening. It's very helpful when analyzing a film. I highly recommend it. Ciao, Boca Bronxie -- Get out of that pumpkin patch, you'll catch cold. I'd love to but I've been dissed again. I always wish and hope to be treated with care, but, sadly, that's never the case. They know the pain they cause and that's what hurts the most. Yes, I saw laffites's gorgeous ships! (and your QUIET MAN screep caps are beautiful) Was that his post you referred to? Yes, ma'am. We actually posted at the same time. I should have realized you're a very observant lady. I'm tired. I came home from the ESL class tonight. I was trying to explain to my Pakistani student what Mr. Potato Head is. She didn't understand. I was introducing the spelling of fruits and vegetables, then got caught up in my own whimsy. For instance, I drew Casper the Ghost and they thought it was an amoeba. That sounds like my kind of tutoring, B. I could use a few lessons. How's your mom doing? I saw THE HAPPIEST MILLIONAIRE once. I can believe it. It's tough to watch any Greer Garson film more than once. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
