A Christmas Story


I saw a bit of that movie last year with my granddaughter. It REALLY rubs me the wrong way and I didn't want her to see it. (Shortly afterward she was talking about wanting a gun.) When I was a kid we were threatened by a boy with a bb gun.......nothing funny.

I don't think grouches wear jeans. (My father never did.)

Snow movie... Better Off Dead is a comedy classic with lots of snow scenes. (IMO).

I've got to get busy watching the snow fall.........

Here's another anti-Avatar take......from David Brooks. In this case I think he's got a limited view....

Endurance; really anything on Shackleton. The PBS series The Last Place on Earth. The Fast Runner. Nanook of the North.

Did you say "Quartet"? Good thing you didn't say Quintet; I might have to kill you. Up there with The English Patient and Synecdoche, New York.

Doesn't look like I've seen any of his films. Of course, I've heard of a few.
