Harry Potter Book
I've never read them, not my cup of tea, but my daughter has been reading them right along. She went to Harry Potter Night at our local bookstore the night before the book came out. She had a great time and got to get the book just afternoon midnight. I read today over 8.2 million copies of the book were sold in 24 hours.
Just finished Harry Potter - no spoilers
I would never ruin it for anyone. Just wanted to say - What a ride! It was an excellent book! Sorry it's all over.
I finished Harry Potter! Never fear - no spoiler.
Wow - what a great book & series. Brilliant! As Ron would say.
It sounds like you probably would like to see the Harry Potter books burned too
People like you are why I have a problem with religous nut cases. The last time I knew God = love. God loves all his children no matter what. You are just filled with judgement and self-righteousness. I believe that if someone is being physically abused of course remove them. If they are living the ways their religion believes and it is not hurting anyone leave them alone. So what if they wear funny clothes and their hair looks funny to outsiders. What gives one religion the right to dictate how another lives. Yes I know polygamy is illegal, children marrying and having sex with adults is disgusting in my opinion, but we should try and understand each other. I heard a quote one time that said "Don't tell me how I should or should not live and I won't tell you how you should or should not live". We are not The Creator and we should not be judging people. Let the courts handle it when they've got something legitimate and solid to work with.
I have a Chihuahua named Mione. My daughter named her after Hermione from Harry Potter. I also ha
We also have a hamster named Sandy.
Yeah, like when Tom Potter
decided Portland would opt out of the Terrorism Task Force because they refused to give him the same security clearance as the two cops that would be working under him. I think the government pulled various funding from the state for that. Probably do the same thing with this.

Movies
How do you like Netflix? I have considered joining. We don't generally rent a lot of movies though.
Thought you might want to add one to your list . . . I got the recommendation from Helen Reddy's web site, and I really enjoyed it -- it's called "What the Bleep Do We Know". It's sort of a docudrama/comedy starring Marlee Matlin. Kind of how things are and how they might be. Check it out:

movies
How about Steel Magnolias.
I think you have two different movies . . .
Cary Grant was in both of them. "Why don't you come up and see me sometime" was She done him wrong. "when I'm bad" is from "I'm No Angel".
At least according to:

On a lighter note, what good movies have you seen lately? Last night, we went to see, "You dont mess with the Zohan" with Sandler. It was funny to me, not the best movie, but a good comic relief. I also saw Iron Man, which was good to me just because of Robert Downey Jr. who is HOT!
Sad movies
Have you ever watched a sad movie that you were still crying even when it's over. I just watched The Notebook last night. What a great movie but an absolute tear-jerker. I will still crying after the credits were rolling and it was going on to the next movie. Thank God DH did not come into the room. I would have felt like such a dork. What movies have you cried at? Another one I saw that was a tear-jerker but had a happy ending was Steel Magnolias.
Yes, it is great, and more than movies
I started renting shows, like Will and Grace and Desperate Housewives, things I didn't watch much in the past, starting from the very beginning, one season at a time. It's really great! Oh, and if you haven't done the sex and the City thing, start renting them. You will be hooked from the 1st season. Many women I know says that is their all-time favorite "woman" show.
Which is better - books or movies?
I never really caught on to the whole Harry Potter thing - it even took me a while to like the movies. But everyone is so crazy about the books, my curiosity is killing me. I don't have a lot of extra money to invest to quash my curiosity, so which should I invest in - the movies or the books? I do know that usually books are better than movies, but I'd hate to spend all that money if the movies are just as good!
Have u seen the movies What the Bleep Do We
Both movies can be life changing! What The Bleep Do We Know is about quantum physics, but it is explained in a way that is easily understandable! It is really amazing, and I would recommend it to anyone who has been feeling negative or hopeless or powerless lately or just wants to expand their brain and learn something totally alien.
The Secret has similarities to the above movie, but with more simplified explanations. I pretty much forced my mom to watch The Secret because she has had such a negative view lately and gone through some tough times, and even though she can be a bit skeptical, she loved it! It really inspired her, and the next day she had a terrific career idea and is at least focusing on the positive a bit more.
I think a simple thing like a movie or a book or even a new idea from a stranger can cause a slight shift in one's consciousness and can help create a more positive outlook on life, and watching these movies really did make me want to enjoy the beauty of life a little bit more each day and look forward to the adventures life brings and just really feel alive!
I just wanted to recommend the movies to you and also know your thoughts if you have actually seen either movie and if/how they affected your lives. (~kam)
Loved all these fun movies sm
You had Joe Pesci correct. I am not a person who swears a lot but he swears so much, it gets hilarious. Of course, I watch him with no kids around. He swore so much in Casino that I was laughing all by myself. Husband and I are getting older, so we joke about Python's skit - Bring out your Dead! But I'm not dead yet! So hilarious! Thanks for the laughs. No offense meant by the swearing, I just love Joe Pesci, loved him when he was ordered by the court to live in his own slum houses. I am sure he's a much nicer guy in person. Thanks for the memories.
we watched movies
Chuck and Larry was one of them. We had shrimp cocktail and stuffed clams and those little hot dog pastries and mini quiches, and then at midnight champagne and Italian pastries. It was a nice night. Happy 2008 all.
Try Out Red Box for renting movies.
pppp
I just watched 2 great movies.
We rented Spitfire Grill and I caught Guarding Tess on cable. I've seen both before, but what great movies.
THE HOLIDAY!!!!! I saw it 4 times at the movies with all sm
different sets of friends. SOOO romantic - ultimate chick flick. I never saw a movie with Jude Law before that one. MY FAVORITE MOVIE OF ALL TIME! Jude Law is amazingly gorgeous. I promise, you will love this movie. Ultimate in romance and humor!!Even my husband liked it and he doesn't like chick flicks.
he is cool - love all his movies -

Anyone download movies on the net for free?

What are your favorite funny movies?
Mine are (in no particular order)
Wagons East
Super Troopers
Anchorman
Baby's Day Out
Almost Heroes
Elf
Yes, those Batman movies sure are scary.
xxx
I love TCM. Great movies.
xx
I gotta go with the American Pie movies
Especially American Wedding when Stiffler eats dog doo! These movies make me pee my pants -- speaking of which, my fav romantic movie is Pretty Woman - that's her line in the opera scene when she tells those old biddies "it was so good, I almost peed my pants."
My best friend loves Grease, too. She knows every single line (which can get quite annoying).
Work, watch movies, etc
Staying home is not hard for us at all. We have no kids to entertain, no family or friends here, and our cat is lonely when we're not here. We have so many projects to work on at home that I love turning on an old movie on AMC and work on my quilts. DH is into computer games. Also we have sorting, straightening, cleaning, paying bills, and all the stuff I can't do when I work from 7 am to 10pm
What are your favorite holiday movies
Now that the holidays are just around the corner we'll be seeing more and more holiday movies. I'm not into the holidays, but I do like holiday movies. What are some of your favorites. I like:
1. Home for the Holidays (starring Holly Hunter) - very funny.
2. Bed of Roses (with Christian Slater) - very Romantic.
3. All the cartoon/animation kids shows like Dr. Seusse's Grinch that Stole Christmas and Rudolph the Rednose Rheindeer (DH loves to imitate the abdominal snow man - and we walk around singing we are Santa's elves while we make movements with our arms like the the animated characters - it's a hoot and we always end up laughing). :-)
4. Homecoming - Christmas story with the Waltons.
My favorite holiday movies...sm
I love The Grinch with Jim Carey. I also have always loved The Christmas Story since I was a kid.
Watching movies online
What is the site where you can watch a movie without paying anything?
thanks
tv-dome.net has movies and TV shows.

Any of the Star Wars movies...
Space movies bore me.
If you rent movies by mail, which service are you using and
s
Whenever I watch one of the Jurassic Park movies,
velociraptors. But mostly T-rexes. The weird part is, I and the people I'm with in the dream aren't really AFRAID of it, but it's presence is an almost-daily ANNOYANCE that we have to take cover from as the dinosaur passes by. In one dream, right in the middle of some sort of fun activity, "Dang! The Rex is coming!" and we all ended up hiding in a bunker of some kind 'til it went away.
Many movies on cable have scenes deleted SM
for one reason or another. I don't like it either.
Look, I'm liberal, so I agree with PC of deleting scene, but also agree with your point about censorship. That movie was funny, as, ahem, heck.
all Adam Sandler movies will make you laugh
nm
Lifetime movies where the husband has an affair and leaves
aaa
Tom Hanks, and we'd watch Jimmy Stewart movies together.

Donnie and shower. Go to movies or rent a movie?

Kind of in the same vein as favorite movies threat below SM
Name your favorite holiday songs. I absolutely love anything by Karen Carpenter, love her version of all the Christmas songs. I also love Carol of the Bells.
My thing is Lifetime Movie Network movies...sm
I love most of the movies on this channel. I could sit and watch them all day.
Hulu is a great site for movies and TV shows.

Who'd Have Thought? "Clean" movies biggest winners.
Here's an article that analyzes the revenues earned by movies without foul language, violence, explicit sex or substance abuse compared with those that include these things. As you can see, depravity loses bigtime. Good on you, American movie-goers! You're rewarding decency and punishing filth-peddlers the best way possible - with your dollars.

Wanting to suggest a few movies this season. Right now the kids are watching sm
The Chronicles of Narnia and it is such a GOOD movie. Highly suggest this. Also, Elf with Will Ferrell is cute.
Polar Express is great also. With 3 little ones at home, anyone have any suggestions on good "holiday" type movies that won't bore a 4 year old? Thanks!
You can get head lice from the movies, day camp, doctor's offices, anywhere!! nm

Oh you're kidding! Blazing Saddles is one of the funniest movies
And no, I'm not a guy.
