2023-04-27 03:11:44 +0000 UTC‘Arsenic & Old Lace’ is one of my all-time favorites. So glad to see it come up soon on the channel! 😃

2023-04-26 17:24:17 +0000 UTCIf only. No, it was super tame. We were each given an egg and forced to sit in a circle, in silence, until we were called. Then we were asked a series of questions, individually, and if we got one wrong, the egg was smashed on our heads. Like I said, super tame.

2023-04-25 13:59:43 +0000 UTCI guess I'll just have to re-watch your Arsenic and Old Lace reaction as my own, personal Hallowbeans kick off. Delighted it's making it on the channel as it's a wonderful introduction to Cary Grant at his screwballiest. This means that now, in addition to Bringing Up Baby, I can start pestering you about Some Like It Hot., 😁

2023-04-25 12:47:59 +0000 UTCYeah good call on the review. It's got it's place, namely being a flower bed for young stars McConaughey and Affleck and others, but it's not a good movie.

2023-04-25 11:45:45 +0000 UTCI have to admit, not a fav. of mine either. But I can see if you watched this at a certain time it might hold some nostalgia for you that makes it better. However, watching it in this day and age it doesn't hit right with me.

2023-04-25 02:37:31 +0000 UTCI'm not a fan of this movie either.

2023-04-24 17:05:57 +0000 UTCYou so don't understand hazing. It's definitely a thing that happened (through the 90's in some places). You got hazed 1 time, then you were "in".

2023-04-24 15:43:23 +0000 UTCOh absolutely. I've actually argued several times on these boards that we shouldn't just try and vote for stuff we think she'll like. As she says in her intros it's to see if they stand the test of time, not only if they do. This movie is iconic and needed to be gotten to at some point, I just don't think this was the proper slot. Given a different build I think she might have been more open to it and liked it more (or at least hated it less ;) )

2023-04-24 13:00:20 +0000 UTCI think you're right. I did vote for Dazed and Confused but I haven't seen any of the other movies that were on the poll. But I will say even if a movie is a miss it's part of the process. Not every movie can get 5 out of 5 stars. (E.T. 😀) Hopefully a better 420 movie will win next year.

2023-04-24 12:34:52 +0000 UTCI’ve never seen DaC, but my mom (rest her soul) said the 70s were exactly like this. 😂

2023-04-24 04:29:00 +0000 UTCMaybe it's a Texas thing. We grew up in Dallas and a lot of this rings true -- even though we graduated a few months after this was released. Driving around, doing nothing until you ran into someone (usually at Denny's when we got the munchies) who knew of a party going on, etc. I got hazed by the theatre kids, but Jason.... Man, he's got some stories about the baseball team. And buying beer underage! Go to the right (or wrong) side of town and you could get just about anything. Anyway.... Sorry you didn't like it, but art is subjective. Can't win 'em all. 😉

2023-04-24 04:21:02 +0000 UTCObviously not for everyone, but I often enjoy the "day in the life" kind of movies that don't need a plot heavy A-B-C narrative. That said, having this selected for the 420 movie was a mistake. This movie was never going to be high on Ashleigh's scale, but when she's been set up before thinking a movie is going to be one thing but turns out to be something different, it really needs to be something special to grab her to pull her in. Clearly she was expecting a 420 screwball comedy, like a Cheech and Chong or many others on the poll. I really think those that voted for this let her and this movie down. That reads far harsher than intended, but I can't think of a way to soften it and keep the point.

2023-04-24 02:46:50 +0000 UTCYou won't get any hate from me, gurl. I never watched this one when it was popular and finally watching it as a grown-up over the pandemic, I related even less (even though I do live in a legal state now and fully avail myself of those services whenever possible). I adore Parker Posey (one of the senior girls who was leading the hazing) - she did a movie called Party Girl which is this hidden indie classic from the 90s. I remember her and love her for Party Girl more than this one, tbh. Also hell yeah, Mars Attacks! :V
