Had to mention that To Kill a Mockingbird is one of my all time favorite movies. Glad to see it high on your list too.
Also enjoyed your musical intermission. Ah... Tony Bennett. Well I' m getting ready to see your top ten. Eagerly awaiting. In the meantime, I think I' ll make one last trip to the concession stand to see if they got those Milk Duds I ordered ;) |

Oh , got back early. And I was in luck - nothing at the counter but I found this in the hallway to the lounge. I got Milk Duds AND Whoppers AND Junior Mints .

Also got some popcorn. With real butter. There's plenty to share so don't feel afraid to take a few handfuls.

Ah..... well.. ahem.....let's just forget about sharing that popcorn shall we? Too many calories anyway. Care for a Milk Dud?
( And now, on with the show :) ) |

Re: John Connor's Top 250 of All Time
Shawshank Redemption is one of the few movies I remember the time and place I saw it. It changed how I thought about movies at the time.
I honestly think it’s one of the best films of all time and no matter where it is in the movie, if it’s on tv I find myself watching the rest of it. |

I liked most of the "Miami Vice" series. I even have the first few seasons on DVD. I saw a video on YouTube a few years ago that was the song "Smuggler's Blues" from the episode with Glenn Frey, but it used movie clips of Han Solo from the Star Wars movies. It was a great video, but I haven't been able to find it again, so it must have been taken down for some reason. |
