    What was the last TV show you watched?

    For $5 a month you have access to a large number of titles, including some recents, oldies (Rumpole of the Bailey), documentaries, and some films. We started Lost in Austen tonight. So far it seems like a good deal. As you pointed out, it's a fraction of movie ticket. We haven't had it long...

    What's for Dinner?

    From Independence Day.... Barbeque'd ribeye and New York, with seasoning of cayenne, basil, and lemon pepper, corn on the cob grilled in the husk on the bbq, pasta salad, asparagus, and fruit salad, ably supported by a cabernet.

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    Excellent choices! The Searchers is one of the few westerns the Missus actually enjoys, thanks to the story and performances. Fort Apache ranks slightly higher for me, as part of the unofficial cavalry "trilogy".

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark, because my future daughter-in-law had never seen it.

    What was the last TV show you watched?

    ANZAC Girls, episode 1, from the Acorn service. We got Acorn for the purpose of watching Poldark, only to discover the series was from 1975, when the BBC still did film for exterior scenes and videotape for interior scenes. We're waiting for more of the more recent series.

    Zootopia, for about the fourth time, because the grandkids love it.

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    This is one intense movie. Watched it years ago. David Brian's Castleman was really creepy.

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    The other night, Zootopia. Sort of Lethal Weapon meets Animaniacs. We laughed a lot. Last night, Age of Adeline. Very well done; Missus really liked it.

    Let's say your schedule won't permit you playing yourself in the film. Who should be called upon to fill in?

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    Tonight, Revenge of the Sith, with youngest son. He had given me the blu-ray collection as a present and we are working our way through the movies.

    Revisiting this thread, I am reminded of an article, posted somewhere, either on the net or in a print medium, that up until the 1960s, families would go to the movies, not to see the latest "blockbuster", but because the studio system delivered a quality product that Dad and Mom could take the...

    Attending the movie theater nowadays for me represents an increasingly smaller return on investment. The ticket prices and the concession stand prices are too high for my budget (and I understand it is not the theater owner's decision, but the result of the cost of film exhibition, i.e., the...

    What was the last TV show you watched?

    All our favorites are done for the season, with the exception of Person of Interest. Consequently, we've been enjoying Cops Reloaded, and a couple of episodes of Young Justice, season 2. The Missus is all caught up on Blindside. We noodle around on Netflix and Amazon for another Dr. Thorne-type...

    Does Anyone Drink Rye Whiskey?

    We tried Whistle Pig, courtesy my son. It's 100% rye whiskey. I thought it was lighter tasting than other ryes. Enjoyable, though.

    What was the last TV show you watched?

    The first two episodes of Dr. Thorne, the Amazon series from Julian Fellowes, the creator of Downton Abbey. Only one more episode, which brings a whole new meaning to the expression "limited series." Fellowes himself opens each episode and returns at the end. He's seated in a comfy chair by a...
