I just kind of feel like our lists are bizzaro versions of each other's. This is what I would say mine is, in no particular order:

The Christmas Song, O Little Town of Bethlehem, Hark the Herald Angels Sing, White Christmas, Jingle Bell Rock, God Rest Ye, Merry Gentlemen, Silent Night, Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas, Let It Snow, Let It Snow, Let it Snow, All I Want for Christmas is You

That Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer with Bing Crosby and Ella Fitzgerald is a banger, though.

I can't listen to "Duel of the Fates" unless it is the music video version. Also, your lack of any songs from "Christmas in the Stars: Star Wars Christmas Album" is disturbing.

It occurs to me, I -have- seen custom HTML tags. Zendesk's knowledge base software uses them now; the WYSIWYG editor inserts them to power some of its functionality, but since they're unstyled containers they don't affect the published page.

The ultimate chip shame is reaching the crumbs at the bottom and using the bag to funnel them directly into your mouth. Also, if we’re allowing foods with origins elsewhere, I’d add Tex Mex to the list. It’s just as popular as pizza and significantly more delicious.

It's called Abstract Expressionism, PLEBE. And sometimes when your husband hoards giant weird stamps you have to use them before postage rises so much you have to put 3 on an envelope.

Friend, last night I watched the Keira Knightley Pride and Prejudice for the first time right after having re-read the book. This movie insulted my intelligence and I took it very personally. I will not dignify it with a post on my website trying to convince everyone what a piece of crap it is, but you may be someone who understands.

skep 6 months ago

I... actually like it, for the most part. I remember you saying you thought it was one of Austen's weaker novels for its fairy-tale-ness, so I imagine it doesn't improve things if you have to trim out all the subtleties to fit it into a 2-hour runtime.

I will agree that the ending scene is really bad. It's so bad. I dread re-watching the movie because I don't want to be subjected to that scene again.

It's mostly that they took out the humor that was in the book and replaced it with their own bad humor. And cut out a lot of plot points to make room for random fancy shots of landscapes and statuary. And everybody was played so flat and subdued that it didn't make sense why any of the characters cared about each other.

I think they could have gotten away with 5 hours instead of 6, but the BBC is much truer to the spirit of the book. They actually let people be funny and ridiculous.
