But, please can't they just watch the original. Why don't they come up with some new movies, originals? Although I am curious about how a remake of The Birds and maybe Creature from the Black Lagoon will be. I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday with your loved ones my friend.

Looks real enough for someone to mistake it for the real thing. When my mobile phone's rung in the kitchen I've accidentally picked up an avocado and started talking on it! <br /><br />The Jabba the Hutt mug looks really neat. I might look out for it in stores. I sometimes collect sculpted mugs.<br /><br />I'm cringing at all the remakes except Creature From The Black Lagoon. It's one of the few that they've never done a remake of (like The Birds, I just can't say a whole for that one though because I've never seen the original). When they made the Wolf-Man remake I thought they did a far better job on that one than what most people give credit for, so I'd like to see how a remake of The Creature does.

I hope to treat my kids, their spouses and my grandkids all to see Star Wars. Last time we did it, tickets were sold out for the timeframe we went to see, but we only had to wait for an hour. My grandson thought it was cool waiting. This time, I prebuying tickets. <br /><br />When you say The Birds is heading for a remake are you talking about the Hitchcock one with Tippi Hedren? Yes, there's some bad acting in that one, but it's one of my favorite movies so I probably won't like a remake.<br /><br />T.<br /><br />T.
