man oh man joan,
i couldn't watch half of those movies~ instant cryfest. i couldn't handle it. I can't stand having my emotions manipulated so much.
I'm a drama, dark comedy, psycholigical thriller kind of a girl with occasional action movie tendancies.
however, "when harry met sally" is in my top 5 ~ at the end when harry goes into his tirrade of why he loves sally, i always hope someone would say that to me one day.

[joanrdtobe]

Well, that's why I would only watch ONE AT A TIME..... so that crying jags come sporadically only..... I'm sort of a romantic softie.... I think the acting in When Harry Met Sally was fantastic...

[andrea76]

i've concluded that i'm not high maintenance,
i'm not low maintenance,
I'm MEDIUM Maintenance
or put another way,
I'm Low Maintenance with High Maintenance Tendancies

you?

[joanrdtobe]

High Maintenance....(all the way).....and I have to own it....my friend the last few months...when he would come visit me....told me so.....I require a lot of tender loving care....and attention.... oh well....just who I am....

check out my latest post to "how to"

[joanrdtobe]

Okay, just read your latest post to "how to"...and pretty much agree with everything you say....esp. about loving yourself and putting yourself first (even before the boyfriend)..... So excellent -- go to school - become what you want to become - If he can't support that, I guess that is his problem. Right?

[andrea76]

i'm not sure i necessarily agree.
i mean fundamentally yes, if he's got a problem with me bettering myself then (explitive deleted) him.
however, good things are worth fighting for.

the thing with les, was A LOT more than just the whole school thing. It was about trust, and communication,
and a best friend that held a mirror up to me so i could see reality.

I wouldn't acknowledge what was JUST a friendship, because i was afraid that such a mind set was shallow. . . she'd said to me "andrea, you're not attracted to les anymore are you?"
I tore a strip off of her.
but she forced me to look in the mirror.
I didn't like myself because deep down i thought iwas shallow,
but i finally owned my own mistake,
I love les, i always will.
but he's my best friend; and some times ~ and this brings us back to when harry met sally (sort of) ~ men and women CAN be friends.

Favorite movies... I like drama, action, & comedy.
I really really liked the Lord of the Rings movies- Beautiful Mind- Patch Adams- Office Space (What Life according to a cubicle dweller really is like... LOL) Monty Python's Holy Grail- Al Pacino movies (Scent of a Woman, Heat... etc) Orange County, Harry Potter series, etc.....

I've been really listening to christian music as of late... Like it quite a bit....
Also like Enya, Sarah McLaughlin, Evenescence, 80's, little bit of country... pretty much rock/pop type stuff. That's all for me.

I'm there with you on the Lord of The Rings.

It's so hard for me to name specific music. I really like Smith songs. I really like all types of music however, my favorite differs all of the time.

[stori813]

There are two types of movies I don't like.
One's where bad things happen to children.
And Love Stories with unhappy endings.
Other wise I love all types of movies.

[EYEFORGOT]

ooooooooooooooo

Thanks for resurrecting this thread stori.

Hubby and I are huge fans of Director, Peter Jackson and Stephen Spielberg. Well done science fiction is a must-see, and historical. But it has to be very accurate because my husband is very knowledgable in this area. He can spot the smallest mistakes.

I also have what my 4 yo calls "mama movies". They're mostly the romantic-comedy types. I don't know how I ended up with so many with Hugh Grant. He's not a great actor, or one of my favorites, he just happens to be a handsome, British actor who can play two parts: the sweet and sexy, or the sexy jerk. And it's mostly British romantic-comedies I seem to love. "Bridget Jones", "Truly, Madly, Deeply" with Alan Rickman (dashingly handsome at any age, good guy role or bad) and "Love Actually".

And when I'm pms-ing: Must have violence! I grab Men in Black or The Matrix (sometimes Master And Commander but that falls under our well-done historical movies)

[stori813]

Funny you should mention Hugh Grant.
I seem to own a lot of movies he's in also. LOL
I love him in the movie About A Boy.
