Land of the Lost - I can't believe they actually made that into a movie...I can't believe I actually let the kids talk me into seeing it.

I can't believe it either! This must come under the title of 'What were you thinking? Or drinking??' A Midsummer Night's Dream

Notorious (1946) - A government agent (Cary Grant) and a Nazi spy (Claude Rains) both fall for the same girl-with-a-past (Ingrid Bergman).
This film is so sexy, suspenseful, and entertaining, that if it wasn't for "Casablanca", I might think it was the perfect movie. "Casablanca" has the added elements of pathos and humor that put it at #1 in my book.

In my experience, Gams, Sam Elliott seems to have an almost universal appeal. I know women of most every age and description who have a crush on him. Maybe it's that epic 'stache. ~~~~~~~~ Vanity Fair - a poor girl stops at nothing to improve her place in society Several actresses have played ambitious, ruthless Becky Sharp over the decades, including Myrna Loy and Reece Witherspoon. Miriam Hopkins' 1934 version, called "Becky Sharp", is a good one. Really, Myrna was just too intrinsically likeable to play Becky. But she still pulled it off.

Ah...I think that's probably the reason I never would have thought "mmmm". It's a bit too epic for my tastes.

It seems zombies are good for something, after-all. They give us an abundance of "z" movie titles....or more accurately, an over-abundance.
Zombie Vegetarians
(I wonder how that works?)

They only eat dead trees? And brussel sprouts cause that's nearly the same thing. The movie about Zombie Vegetarians is not popular though. It was filmed in the northeast in a maple grove and the trees sapped the strength right out of 'em.
And of course there was this gem... Aaah! Zombies
