Oh, and while I'm here, I have to give a shout-out to TeacherMommy at Diapers and Dragons. She awarded me with the Queen of Allll Things award. (Thanks, TeacherMommy!)
Here are the rules:
1. List 7 things that make you awesome.
2. Pass the award onto 7 bloggers that you love.
3. Tag those bloggers to let them know they are now Queens too (and link back to the Queen who tagged you).
So, here's how I'm playing:
1. I was narcissistic enough on one of my You Capture assignments, so I shall defer to that post.
2. I am not tagging anyone because, well, I'm too lazy. However, I will say that all two of my fans are Queens in my eyes (well, except for Arby; he's definitely not a queen). So...if you want the award, just take it!
3. Link me, don't link me...

Really? You're able to watch "Nightmare on Elm Street"????? I'm afraid I would never be able to sleep again. :)
And I totally forgot that I loved "Clueless." Like. Totally.
Ah...the Nightmare movies. Those were from a different era of my life--the era where it was cool to watch them, so you gave up nights, weeks of sleep in order to be cool.
I'm so with you on Will Smith! Have you seen I, Robot? And I love all the animated movies you listed.
And I LOVE Elf because smiling's my favorite!
Guy hates musicals, too. I like some. My 19-yr old is a huge fan of them, of course. She loves Phantom of the Opera. And I think you may have forgotten the soundtrack to Flashdance?! LOL!
And Jason Bourne! I read those when they first came out. So we have all the movies.
I think they did a great job on Indian in the Cupboard. After my oldest had read it, we had to get the movie. Now my youngest doesn't want to read it because, hello?, she's already seen it. =P
I love Pride and Prejudice. ALl of 'em. And Mockingbird with Gregory Peck! *swooning here*
I don't care about Mr. Gump, but I can't help but love Napoleon. And I'm the only one in the house who's a huge fan.... Then again, I love Nacho Libre. ;o)
This has become a post. And I don't have time to do a post. So I'm going off to be mature (ish).
You are too funny, Crossview!
Haven't seen Nacho Libre...do I dare??
