WRESTLEMANIA!!!!!

Not hardly!

Hear hear, CineCraft. Sounds like a plan!

It took me many viewings to notice that he takes back most of the tip he gives to the bartender. I love that detail.

"That's right, Woodchuck Chuckers, it's — GROUNDHOG DAY!!!"

I just watched These Amazing Shadows, a fun documentary about the Registry, and it more or less implied that some films (but certainly not all), like Back to the Future, are chosen just because they're awesome and people really like them. I think that's how it should be!

I love that phrase "casual profundity," and A.A.'s right, I think it's a major strength of the film. If we knew, as some of the early drafts of the script revealed, just why Phil was being subjected to this karmic punishment (a scorned lover or whatever), a lot of the film's charm and power would be lost. There's no

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!

He could just once again play his Deadwood character - Sol Star sounds like a superhero name!

You're in Boston, right Miller? At least you still have Spare Change News!

Oh indeed, I'm not arguing the causes (I think you're absolutely right!), I'm just wondering what the solution is. Since ultimately few people will read the Warren Report of Bugliosi's book or other written refutations, perhaps the only way to change the popular narrative is through, as you noted, media that accept

I'm pleased as well (even though JFK remains one of my all-time favorite films), but haven't recent studies shown that like 70% of Americans still believe there was some sort of conspiracy?

Killing Harding:

You're not alone, Floyd. I still remember the day John Candy died. I was 6, and I was devastated. I remember drawing a picture of him that night.

Marvin is indeed a poo-smeared little bastard, but at least he doesn't constantly insult and belittle his wretched friends!

If only more films could be ragged on for their own brilliance!

Yes indeed. Not to mention the fact that, cinematically, if this were to be half as good as The Insider we'd be in for a taut, thoughtful drama, which I'm always for.

I still say Episode I was the best of the prequels, which is hardly a compliment, but still. I'll take its practical effects (even a few) over the CGI'd mess of II and III any day. Not to mention the awful love story and the unforgivable treatment of Yoda that lower the other two to unsalvageable levels.

Pleasantville is a great example. Heck, I'm just glad to see it mentioned in general! It's a wonderful flick.

Yeah, you nailed why I love that ride. It's the only one I can think of where you can both be on a ride and be integrated into the film's setting.
