On the movie theme... I tell DH that I just don't like most movies that come out but the real reason I don't want to go to the movie theater is bc of my irrational fear that there will be a shooting. Same with the mall (well that and we have Amazon prime).
I put it on a few weeks ago and got to the boat scene. It wasn't doing it for me so I put on something else.
The Princess Bride rocks, but there's something to be said for watching a movie in its time. I first saw it at age 9 when Fred Savage, Billy Crystal, and Peter Falk were very in. I could quote it from then. I'm not sure if I saw it now for the first time if I would still love it.
Here's my similar confession: I first saw Star Wars at age 26. It bored me to teaaaars. It was dated and silly. I've never been able to watch past episode IV.

I didn't see Star Wars until the new(er) ones came out, so I went back and watched the originals. I did not see the appeal.
However, H will undoubtedly make me go see the newest ones. And I will sit there confused.

I saw one of the newer ones. Revenge of the Sith, maybe? I didn't know what the fuck was going on and I didn't care.
I don't necessarily LIKE The Big Lebowski, but I quote it in my every day life. I even quote the edited-for-tv version: "THIS IS WHAT YOU GET WHEN YOU FIND A STRANGER IN THE ALPS!"
The Big Lebowski is one of my favorite movies. I just decided I need to watch it tonight.
I've actually never seen it all the way through. A group of us stayed up at college one summer in our sleepy town. We drank a lot, hooked up irresponsibly, and watched a lot of The Big Lebowski. I have fond memories.

I should watch it from beginning to end.
That sounds like a good summer! You should watch it with a beverage. Such a good movie.
summerdonna - I'm mobile and can't see, but does your "it ties the room together" post say that I edited it?
Mods have the ability to edit posts and that stupid button is right next to the "quote" button on mobile. I thought I was quoting you but no. Once I realized that I edited your post instead, I unedited and then made my new quoted post.

I agree. I saw the Goonies for the first time in my early 20's. I liked it but I don't get the fanatical appeal. Eta: Autocorrect hates me
