Today has been a day where for some reason I have been not feeling myself. Maybe it's my version of a midlife crisis (I'm going to be 43 this year LOL) starting to brew and I'll soon be leasing a sports car hoping to hook a nice young man to have a fling with or maybe it's a touch of being overworked and depressed (my best friend of 20 years is fighting stage 4 cancer and while he is improving, the survival rates for his cancer are abysmal unfortunately. 15% at 5 years)
But anywho, on with my ramblings: I was watching Something's Gotta Give as I'm trying (unsuccessfully) to fall asleep and I had a thought. What movies would you pick to watch for eternity? If given the option to bring 5 movies to the afterlife which ones would you pick?
I think this is my list:
1. Ghostbusters (1984)
2. The Bucket List
3. Mad Money
4. The Santa Clause or National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation
5. Caddyshack
I love the Ghostbusters franchise, my Mom when I was younger would say to me all the time "not Ghostbusters again, can't you put something else on?" I actually wore out the VHS tape and had to buy another.
I can honestly say I'd agree with Carter played by Morgan Freeman in the Bucket List, that when my time comes I want to be put in an old Folgers can and buried someplace with a majestic view. I'm making a bucket list of my own too, I want to have more experiences and not have as many regrets.
Mad money, well who doesn't love Ted Danson, Diane Keaton, Queen Latifa and Katie Holmes? Plus the premise of the story is interesting.
Christmas Vacation, and the Santa Clause, too hard to pick, but I'm kinda leaning towards Christmas Vacation. Both are must sees at the holidays in my house.
Caddyshack is a classic. they certainly don't make movies as good as they used to. They don't get no respect![Big grin :D :D](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
Anyway as always I hope everyone has a magical night and talk to you all soon!
