Great Movie Pick-Up Lines

In the movies, they make it look so easy..
Take this, from Clark Gable to Jean Harlow in Red Dust:
"Mind if I get drunk with you?"

Or Annette Bening to Warren Beatty in Bugsy:
"I gotta warn ya, every man I've ever gone out with has been ruined."
"Well, that's what they get for messing with my girl."

Or, of course, Cary Grant and Audrey Hepburn in Charade:
Cary: "Do we know each other?"

Audrey: "Why, do you think we're going to? Because I already know an awful lot of people and until one of them dies I couldn't possibly meet anyone else."

Cary: "Well, if anyone goes on the critical list, let me know."

“I would give anything if you were two people, so I could call up the one who is my friend and tell her about the one I like so much.”
(Albert Brooks to Holly Hunter, Broadcast News, 1987)

“Can you keep a secret? I'm trying to organize a prison break. We have to first get out of this bar, then the hotel, then the city, and then the country. Are you in or you out?”
“I'm in.”
(Bill Murray and Scarlett Johansson, Lost In Translation, 2004)

“Your eyes are amazing do you know that? You should never shut them, not even at night.”
(Oliver Martinez to Dianne Lane, Unfaithful, 2002)

Summer Movie Preview

Summer Movie Preview
2007 will bring us what could possibly be the last film of the Spider-Man franchise, Spider-Man 3, as well as the third Shrek, Pirates of the Caribbean, Bourne and Ocean's movies, the fourth film of the Die Hard series, and the fifth installment of the Harry Potter saga.

A couple of new franchises are also launching this year: Transformers and His Dark Materials (the first film being The Golden Compass).

I think the comedy HIT will be: I Now Pronounce You Chuck & Larry. Starring Adam Sandler and Kevin James. July 21.

Ten Best VIEWER's CHOICE Movies of 2006

From Rotten Tomatoes.com, a clearinghouse of critical reviews and audience polls, comes this list of the Ten Best:
10. Borat: Cultural....
9. Cars
8. United 93
7. V for Vendetta
6. Thank You For Smoking
5. Children of Men
4. The Prestige
3. Casino Royale
2. Little Miss Sunshine
1. The Departed

I've seen #'s 9,6 and 2..... I guess I'll have to change my Netflix Queue around......
Personally, I fell asleep to #6.... tedious.... not funny in the least. I'm surprised by a Bond Film at #3.... Apparently, they've remembered how to make a great Bond movie again. Already wrote loving mention of #2... The ending is PRICELESS..

They also have a list of the 100 WORST OF ALL TIME worth checking out..
