[BillyDeath]

As you wish

[Homicidalheathen]

Even if I did, I don't think I would admit it.

[Destroit]

I did!

I love that movie. (shamefully sorta, since now that I'm grown I realize the cheesyness of it)

Well I mean when I was five, that movie along with Labyrinth, Gremlins, E.T. and Beetlejuice were my favorites.

[The_Dark]

I fucking love that movie

[Msterbeau]

It rocks...

[Slept with ghost]

one of the best movies ever

[TheAbsynthFairy]

NOT ONLY....did I love the movie...but I own the morgenstern novel, both in translation and foreign print...and I just proved how big of a damn nerd I really am.

I have the original VHS when it came in the cardboard sleeve. The reissue comes in a clamshell case but I don't have that one. I have the original DVD and the special edition DVD. I have the softcover novel and the 25th Anniversary hardcover edition with the long lost chapter "Buttercup's Baby". I own the screenplay with a cool essay by William Goldman preceeding it. I've also listened to the audio book but don't own it ... yet.

And I must add, Bob Anderson is a genius.

[TheAbsynthFairy]

Spook...ya just rocked my socks off. ha ha

[Head Wreck]

I needed a physed credit to get my Associate's Degree so I took Beginning Fencing, never mind that I had been fencing for at least eight years by that time. In order to be on the same skill level (relatively) as the rest of the class, I kept my knowledge a secret and took the course left handed. At the end of the semester we had a tournament and I beat everybody but two guys. Not content with third place, I challenged #1 and #2 to rematches. They and the instructor agreed but right before the bout started I said, "I know something you don't know."

"What is that?" they asked.

"I am not left handed." I switched the foil to my right hand and beat both of them 5 touches to zero.

my sword style is odd. i trained originaly with a broadsword, but moved to lighter slashing sabres.

at the moment i'm learning an indian martial art which is helping me with the footwork and dodging. i cant wait till i move up a fitness group to go onto massed defence (well, waiting for someone dumb enogh to try something).

in larp we try to get as many film quotes in for comedy to lighten the mood (such in one case a bard friend of mine when struck down by a deamon replied "if you should strike me down, i shall become far less powerfull than you can imagine" before falling over)

[The_Dark]

fuck yeah

[phee]

OK... who has actually read the book? (It's even better)

LARP!! I herd the magic word....do you play white wolf or just D&D? or is it neither of those?

[kellygrrrrrl]

Who hasn't seen it????

One of my all time favorites.

Here's another question: Who knows who Bob Anderson is?

[torn asunder]

i've actually seen this movie 85 times now, and if pressed, could probably quote the entire thing, from beginning to end... :woot:

:whistling

[Head Wreck]

whats more impressive is that he kept count

[torn asunder]
