| I'd forgotten Clint in his Philo Beddoes incarnation. Some great moments. "Wreck the caddy, Clyde".
Two nights ago I saw "The Burbs" for the first time in a long time. It's almost brilliant. |

I'm not sure whether it'll mean anything to you guys on the US side of the lake, but it's a spoof of a Beatles-esque group.
If you like The Beatles, and enjoy Monty Python humour, you'll love it. Spot the cameo's from George Harrison, and a really well spoken/acted interview from Mick Jagger. I'll be watching it again this weekend, that's for sure.

The cow, hanging from the hot air balloon, hitting the "Lucy" bus windshield, and Cuba Gooding's reaction: Priceless.

Great movie. I was really into the Beatles and Python in high school. This movie came out my senior year. I bought the album and still have it.
"Shoot me down in flame if I should tell a lie. Cross my heart. I promise that it's true. I've been in love many times before, but never with a girl like you." A quote from "A Girl Like You". I would say the Ruttle's best and it would stack up with any Beatle's song. |

Location: 6 String Ranch | Gotta vote for Blazing Saddles, or any other Mel Brooks stuff. Spinal Tap and Monte are at the top of the list too. Then there is Wanda Whips Wall Street, oh wait a minute, that's a different category. |
