The theater in boulder of pearl plays it on the big screen every now and then... I hate boulder but it is fun to go to. You get a discount on white russians if you go dressed up as The Dude.

Some other good writer/directors:

Guillermo del Toro (Hellboy, Blade, The Hobbit)

Oh, Lana,, Rita Hayworth, Susan Hayward,, Donna Reed,, Betty Grable...
At partial fear of being scoffed at,, I really haven't seen anybody today that is even in the same league as the classic beauties of hollywood...

Ya, they are good. They don't produce the realism (which seems to be difficult for Hollywood for some weird reason) that MM does. Obviously, this is conditional on the movie type, but I just detest 30 round revolvers, etc.
Bladerunner would be 6th on my list.

I totally agree with you on that.
I'm surprised that so many people liked the Chronicles of Riddick.

Outlaw Jose Wales
"Well Mr Carpetbagger, we got us here somthin' we call a Missoria Boat Ride."
It's playing on AMC right now.
Field of Dreams is my all time favorite film.
I visited the field in Iowa last summer, a very surreal experience.

I grew up not far from Dyersville. And we went there at least once or twice a year for "field trips" all throughout grade school. I assume you went to the Ertl store as well?

No, I actually made a dedicated trip to the FoD while on a trip- just wanted to be there.
I know it sounds stupid, but it was important to me to go visit.
Not stupid at all. Im glad you enjoyed it. Its like when I moved to Colorado I was amazed at the mountains and sat on my deck every night looking at them in awe for the first year or so I lived here. Now I rarely notice them.[Beer]
Just finished watching Brooklyn's Finest. Wasn't a terrible movie, but I'm glad I didn't have to pay to see it.
