Favorite Movies



Topic 6- Movies You Can Re-Watch

In no particular order....well.... maybe #1 is accurate...

1)  Fried Green Tomatoes
I love everything about this movie. It brings both tears and laughter and I cannot understand how The DeShazo hasn't seen it. I keep telling her I'm bringing her the movie to watch- but I never remember.

Oh, Evelyn.
2) Tombstone
Val Kilmer and the one liners....perfect.  If anything, I'd replace Kurt Russell with Robert Duvall. Kurt's just not my favorite...and speaking of Robert Duvall...

3) Lonesome Dove
I realize this is like a 5+ hour movie from way back when, but man, it's great.  Tommy Lee Jones and Robert Duvall helped to make one of the greatest movies of all time.

4) Steel Magnolias
Everybody loves this, right? Well, maybe not many fellas.

5) Hocus Pocus

I could really re-watch any Tyler Perry movie... and on that note....I've had quite a few people ask why Martinez and I dressed as Madea and LeRoy Brown.
Our neighbors have an annual Halloween costume party.  Fun people- great food- and prizes !
I think Martinez and I were just stating names of funny people and these two were our choices- and we decided this 6 days before the party. Thanks to a thrift store, party store and Amazon, we had a costume....though with more time....I'm certain we could have done a better job. I got second place and won some $$$- so thanks Madea! ( And a huge thanks to fabulous neighbors.  Martinez and I have been blessed with great neighbors with both houses we've bought.  This is such a blessing!)


I feel like I super scored with the thrift store, red pants for LeRoy.  I think I paid a buck or two for them and they are excellent!  I may have actually worn them already with my pride- and in excitement- sent the DeShazo many pics of all my shirt options for the LeRoy pants.  Super Score.




So I know this topic was about movies- but I thought I'd throw out some binge worthy series shows...
Also noteworthy, most of these are not for kiddos.  Liv was 2 when I binge-watched 24 and she watched many episodes. She referred to Jack Bauer as "Jack Power". I have no idea why I remember her exact age, but as Martinez and The DeShazo can tell you, I can remember the strangest of occurences down to the date/time/location/detail, yet I cannot remember where my phone or keys are a great deal of the time.
I got side-tracked...
So- I wouldn't recommend that anyone watch anything I binge watch in front of kids- judge it for yourself.
Here a few of my favorites:

24
The Good Wife
Sons of Anarchy (Def not for kids)
Hart of Dixie
Prison Break
Friday Night Lights
Gossip Girl
The O.C. (currently watching)
Blue Bloods (Martinez and I have been slow-binge watching this for a while)- I want to be a Reagan.


On my list to watch:

The Walking Dead
Parenthood


If you have any binge-watching suggestions- please share !
