You know I really like lemon pie. But you don't see me starting a vanity thread about it.

Since 1998 huh? You should know better. Is this one of them "vanity" thangs? You the movie reviewer for FR now?

I just seen the Quaid flick "In Good Company" last night ... I highly recommend it. Very pro-family and a very good flick in general. Very engaging.

Oh God..Spanglish was better than expected...but I HATED In Good Company. Would not recommend this movie to ANYONE. It was truly awful.

We rented a movie last night: "The Clearing". Don't waste your money, it's a total let down.... not to mention extremely depressing.

..."In Good Comapny" with Dennis Quaid...

Did somebody pass a law recently requiring every movie to star Dennis Quaid?? This guy must have a great agent.

We went though this in the 90's when every movie starred Tommy Lee Jones.

I liked Sandler a lot in his golf movie, "Happy Gilmore," but don't have a clue as to his politics. I always assume that arty people are leftists, though.

It's quite refreshing to see someone who has been with FR since 1998 come-up with something so original. I thought conservatives were supposed to be boring, think within the box, follow the plan sort of folks?

Here's a PG one "I am David" that the whole family can see. Its about a boy fleeing a communist labor camp in Bulgaria & his journey to freedom. Inspirational & educational insofar as it shows the side of communism that many in the USA & west Europe either don't know about or choose to ignore.

Worse vanities have been posted IMO, and at least this one introduces an important issue for most Freepers: The culture war. I have read that some Freepers don't go to movies or watch television anymore. Why not talk about the crap and cream that comes out of Hollywood?

UnFreeper friendly: Despite the advertising that "Racing Stripes" is "Fun for the whole family", I brought my 4-year-old to it and he was tremendously bored by it. I can handle that, but the poop, fart and snot "humor" is not age appropriate for the young ones.

Lots of family values in this one. No affair takes place.

Re Spanglish (which we liked a lot): Did you fall asleep during the movie? The wife had sex eleven times with another man before admitting it!!!

Where were you? In the popcorn line for 20 minutes?

"The Village" is a well made film. Great cast. The plot was not as tight as it might have been. Bored my 15 year old; but, I would rate it rental worthy.

but in the end remains faithful to the wife

In the end the younger guy learns that he wants an old-fashioned values life just like Quaid.

Great, two movies I don't have to watch.

Don't pay attention to the "how dare you post a vanity!" group. Vanities are to be limited, for sure, but a good vanity is a good use of space. Most people would like some "spoiler space," however, if you're going to tell what happens in a recent movie.

Don't tell the end of the movie.

AM, would you put the movie titles and spoiler alerts in the title? thanks.

In Good Company was worth seeing.
