Yay! I wanna see that stuff.

[penny_cokes]

the blank tape in my vcr shivers with anticipation!

[therealsugshady]

I'm gonna try to catch some of that stuff, if I remember. I like the pimping of good stuff, because you have good taste.

I'd love to do the "be a star" thing you're doing with fanphotos, but I don't think I look like anyone, and I don't know anyone enough to pick them and pretend to be them. :/ But maybe after this marathon, I will!!!

[penny_cokes]

i would love for you to contribute something to the zine, but it's okay if you want to be an innocent bystander.
maybe one of those luscious leading ladies will get you to change your mind (i hope)! <3

DDDDAAAAMMMMMNNNN!!!!!!!!!!!
WHY DON'T I HAVE TCM????? MY LIFE ROTS!!!

Oh well.

[penny_cokes]

oh, that sucks!
i could always tape some movies for you, if you'd like me to.

[filmstarusa]

Eh, that's ok. I'll survive. I'll just have to build up my dvd collection. :o)

you don't care what I think about you

[dumud]

but even so..
I could endure an evening or two watching older films within your company

I sometimes feel as if TNT and AMC channels play ONLY for me

now I know better
not that you care

hee hee
(I bet you do though)

Re: you don't care what I think about you

[penny_cokes]

all i have to say is thank god for old movies.
do you like butter on your popcorn, or do you prefer junior mints?

what I think

[dumud]

Old movies, an opened window, chamomile tea with rosehips and hibiscus and candlelight
If I have no company, I leave the computer running so that I can make notes to myself in lieu of commentary (dialogue)

Many of my friends prefer newer films or just plain old boring slasher flicks.
Bah.. I like a good old time feel to the undertaking.
I thank heavens for the Library I rent videos from, instead of the video stores, which cater to the minds behind blank stares and gaping mouths
Just today, I rented an older film, "the man with the golden arm" directed by Otto (the penguin) Preminger

That, in addition to Rasputin (hammer film) and several others
the Man on the Eiffel Tower
Metropolis
Mama flora's family
Manon of the Spring
the man in the white suit
and "on the waterfront"

Oh dear, I wish I had TCM! I only have AMC, which doesn't play very good movies if you ask me.
