Your Top Five Films
boykster:
5 movies is unfair. I agree, Coen movies MUST be in there (lebowski being my fav), dirty harry, spaghetti westerns, etc....too many to list.

You will gain a whole new appreciation for the work of Jim Henson. The guy was a master of his craft. We missed out on alot of great stuff when he died.

Gotta say I love that movie too for some goofy reason. Which also reminds me of that movie The Dark Crystal - haven't seen that one in a long time.

Labyrinth is awful. It is AWFUL. You fell in love with the movie when you were ten years old. The rest is nostalgia. That movie is ridiculously bad. I am so sorry. This must feel like when you found out about Santa Clause and Jesus being fake.

Was that the movie with David Bowie as the bad guy? I think I remember it. But as to BTS, I would check it out for that. Again, the editor in me, loves to watch those things to get into the mind of the director as to why they put the stuff where they did. The commentaries are good too, but, I tend to get frustrated quickly, because I generally end up wanting to watch the movie without them yacking about their flat in London while shooting. Who cares. Well we gotta fill up every second of this movie with talking. Meh.
Jim Henson was and still is one of my heroes. The Muppets were just so far ahead of it's time. The stuff is still funny. He is the was one of the hew famous people that I actually stopped and had a really sad day when he died. I was out in the garage building something, my mom came out and told me, and I just stood there. gulp. what? That can't be. I had little ideas of working at the creature shoppe but my career never went that way. He made those puppets come to life. I mean go and look at even Sesame Street. Bert and Ernie (but we go down that road of childhood fondness don't we)... But they were as much 'alive' as any other character. The Muppets had so many great characters. All different and full of life. Fraggle Rock was great and it seemed to progress as I got older. Dark Crystal... that is funny. We were just talking about that the other day. mmmMMMMMMMmmmmmmm (You can't make the noise in a post) but it still is ingrained in my head. Then there was the evening show (I do not remember the name) but it was all done by his guys. I still am mixed about his son doing the voice of Kermit. It is a great interpretation, but has never been really just right.

Stanta Clause is wha.... :cry:
Now Jesus on the other hand (and this gets dangerously close to going to post hell or P & R, but Jesus is not fake. I will leave this at that so this thread can continue. But Santa I can understand being thrown in there. We all KNOW it as there is unquestionable proof of it being our folks. Jesus...Too much proof for him being here and very much alive.
