This is your direct challenge. Look into my eyes (spinning in spiral pattern): You will write a square poem. You WILL write a square poem. YOU WILL WRITE A SQUARE POEM. Horswispr is wonderful.

You will not remember this comment.

You can wake up now.

JAN!
"What's agoraphobia?"
Technically, in Greek it means "fear of the marketplace", but refers to people who can't be around crowds of people, and are afraid to go out. Example, Forester in FINDING FORESTER, or ME. Jude

You are forgiven. I don't blame you! It was almost as hard to write as it was to read...but not quite.

No it was more like a week. But I was in the land of the "stoned with pain medication", so it took a l-o-o-n-n-g-g-g time to write. Sorry. Jude

" He should run! If liberals are gonna be accused of stealing people's paychecks, they should at least be credited with doing it in style. "......that is as good a motivation as any This comment actually had me laughing out loud up here, with mom and my daughter downstairs thinking I was just hysterical, not with laughter....

Gotta watch for the guys in white coats...

That is a much better explanation of black and white than I could come up with. Rats, I wish I could have used it!

I am intrigued with your viewsd on an average epinions reader. LOL

I'll have to rent Bedtime for Bonzo now. It's been ages since I've seen it. What's agoraphobia? I should know that!

Jude, this was most impressive! Although you call the BFI "B.S," those three letters are near and dear to my heart since I had my first Epinions meeting outside its headquarters on Tottenham Court Road, London.

Well done!!

I know I said 'be thorough', but this must have taken an lifetime to do. In Jude-world though, that's probably only five minutes. Gobsmackingly accurate work.

Warren Beatty. (Reply to this comment)
by voxpoptart
I was aware that Beatty was a liberal who'd considered a run for president. I actually hadn't realized he'd starred in Bonnie and Clyde. He should run! If liberals are gonna be accused of stealing people's paychecks, they should at least be credited with doing it in style.

Lovely and informative write-up. I am now baffled, bothered, and bewildered about many fewer movie topics.

byebye now,

Wow ! They all start with 'B' What a great idea !!

Oh, wait. . .I already used that lame 'joke' on another one of these . . .oh well, too late now...

you said...
"Black and white- No color in the images. Again, how hard could that be?"

Hey, don't over-estimate the average Epinions reader . . .

My son, when he was just a young-un, once asked why all the movies 'turned into black-n-white when they got old'... Hey, kinda made sense at the time...

And you got Bedtime for Bonzo and Ray Bradbury in here...


Very..nicely..done !!

by SurgRN911
It seems 'B' has the most movies I've watched and enjoyed. What a funtastic review. But I have grown to expect nothing less from ArtByjude.

Wonderful post my friend!

Boy talk about thorough! You covered B like a honeycomb. That's cool that you threw in a few musical stars that had flings with cinema like Chuck Berry. I love in Back To The Future when his cousin Marvin calls him to let him listen to Marty, who is actually playing one of Chuck's future hits. The irony is simply unbearable. What's up with that one song, anyway, the one that says "Opened up the closet door, and out stepped Johnny B Goode", so is he gay or somethin? LOL I dunno.

See ya later, and I appreciate all those comments you left me the other day :)
