Who am I, a guy, to judge what makes a man "perfect"?Hi Dori, 2 out of 10 ? - I guess he was not a 'perfect' man!
Hope you have been well; haven't seen you around lately.Now if the movie was about the perfect woman, I might be more interested (and perhaps more apt to judge).
Actually, I stayed home from school today due to illness, but that really doesn't have anything to do with the time before today.

Who am I, a guy, to judge what makes a man "perfect"?I highly doubt there's any such thing... In fact, I am positive.
There's perhaps a man out there who meets the standards of the majority of women. But as these "standards" vary so much, "the perfect man" is impossible to define. Unless "the perfect man" refers to individual males that encompass certain characteristics that their soul-mate seeks.
It begs the question, what is perfect?
Is a perfect relationship one without doubt? disagreement? That's not real, how can it be perfect?
Told you I get philosophic at night Dori...

"The perfect man" that the movie refers to is one that is "perfect" for a particular woman in the movie. Somehow the fact that they both do crossword puzzles in pen made them right for each other (although that wasn't the only thing).

Yeah, how true!Who am I, a guy, to judge what makes a man "perfect"?.
Dori, sorry to hear you are sick; hope you are better soon. I guess our paths just haven't crossed lately. "the time before today' sounds like a good title for a book or a movie.Actually, I stayed home from school today due to illness, but that really doesn't have anything to do with the time before today.

I watched "300" yesterday and I'd say it was one of the best movies I've seen. Shame I didn't watch it in the cinemas. Oh and also "What's Eating Gilbert Grape" was amazing.
I've read an article about that movie that said it was the worst movie of 2005. I've seen it and you are right.

Actually I didn't mind "Barbershop". It is "Barbershop 2" that isn't too great. So, if you didn't like the first, definitely stay away from the second!
What did you think of "Love's Labours Lost"?
I heard the rats in "Ratatouille" look very realistic (in the long shots and there are a bunch of them running around). Is it true?
I haven't watched "Police Academy" in years! I could actually go for them again!
"Love's Labours Lost"? Niamh, is it the Kenneth Branagh film version? If so, I own it and I love this film. It is so much fun; I watch it all the time. I feel like they said - hey, let's get together and put on this musical and have a good time in the bargain. It makes me smile from ear to ear throughout. It is so enjoyable and I even like the singing, even though not one of the players is an actual singer, by profession. I own the CD and truly enjoy it.
I want to see "Ratatouille" - my library just got that one in. So what did you think of it?
Hi, LW!

Yes, I always liked that movie. Another one that I haven't seen in years.Oh and also "What's Eating Gilbert Grape" was amazing.
Except for Nathan Lane. Do not forget that he is a big star of the Broadway stage.

"eagle vs shark".... ummm... strangely fantastic is the only way to put it... it is like napoleon dynamite on crack... quite possibly great...
What is that movie? Who stars in it? I can't remember if I have seen it or not.
