    Labyrinth was unsettling

    On Golden Pond was very sad [nice Daryl/Dale reference]

    Smokey and the Bandit was excellent!

    Somewhere in Time was questionable.

    Glitter was not as funny as promised

    Green Mile was too long.

    Watership Down should have been longer.

    Friday the 13th was too violent

    Road to Bali was a good time!

    Meet John Doe- stay tuned next Tuesday.


    And it was so quaint that ole Bill McNeill, and probably his father before him, left up a clip board for customer movie reviews at McNeills's Bait and Beer.

    And which of these movies have you seen?

    I've seen Labyrinth, On Golden Pond, Smokey and the Bandit, Somewhere In Time, The Green Mile, Watership Down, and Friday the 13th. 7 out of 10 ;)

    I’ve only seen the Labrynth and the Green Mile out of those. Maybe bits of Friday the 13th lol.

    I think Somewhere in Time was filmed on that little vacation island north of Michigan.

    Green Mile? That's a Frank Darabont film. I can't believe that slipped past AMC! :eek:

    I think so. I watched that movie on New Year's Eve in a room full of about a baker's dozen elderly people when I was in Florida visiting my father while he was sick about 8 years ago lol. One of the people in the room asked everyone if they wanted any oranges about every 5 minutes, even though no oranges were available. Luckily there was plenty of booze, as the host of the New Year's party was an alcoholic.

    Do you think John rewinds the VHS tapes before he returns them? ;)

    I find it highly unrealistic that a romantic like John wouldn't melt with the cheese of Somewhere in Time. Might be his unconscious inspiration to chase his Laura.

    Six out of ten, for me. The ones I have not seen are Labyrinth, Friday the 13th, and Glitter. I doubt I saw Watership Down, but I did read the book, so I'm not sure.

    Not sure what this is but I liked the movie, John Dorie is one of my favourite Walking Dead characters right now. A gunslinger with a golden heart? "Laura" is pretty interesting too. I loved the episode even if it was a love-drama in a way!

    Classic!

    And Morgan and John are a really good duo. I hope to see em in TWD eventually if Morgan returns. John is like a mixture of Rick, Glenn and Hershel as a gunslinger.

    A true Walking Dead classic, about the people, the little guy and how they are coping with the end of the world.

    9 out of 10. I hope we get a sequel, the Monk and the Cowboy.
