I just watched Field of Dreams and started crying at the end.
Took a girl on our first date to see Field of Dreams. I had no idea what it was really about...her dad had died of a heart attack about 6 months earlier...the end of that movie has always wrecked me a bit...
...3 weeks ago, I put my father (85 with dementia) into an assisted living facility. Every time a post comes on here about Field of Dreams, I remember throwing baseballs with him in the front yard when I was 5-10 years old. Now, thinking about the movie's ending wrecks me at a whole new level.

Not too deep, but here goes...Coaching flag football for first graders and looking over at the other dads watching practice/games, I realize I've gone from one of players in Varsity Blues to one of the dads watching practice in Varsity Blues. I am now getting to the "shite them boys are having the time of their lives" stage in life
last week i was having beers with a couple of my friends and one of them was telling us that his son his playing football for the same high school coach that he had played for. i dropped the "your daddy was a no-talent pussy, but at least he listened!" line on him, and neither one of them got the reference. what a waste of a perfect opportunity to quote a movie.

KIng of the hill is such a good show. Had some great celebrity appearances too. Hank is so relatable

Saturday Night Fever.
Saw it in the theater when I was probably 16. At the time I thought it was about partying, having a good time, and being cool. Tony was the coolest of cool guys.
I watched it probably 20+ years later and was like...Holy shite! I had no clue what this movie was about. Tony was a guy with nothing, what a pitiful life that all he had was how he felt on the dance floor.

Sixteen Candles - Samantha Baker is only slightly less of an a-hole than Caroline and Jake Ryan will shortly get bored of her too because she wasn't interesting either.
But the rape scene still holds up pretty well.

"Rudolph The Red Nosed Reindeer"-
Was watching it with my daughter and realized that Santa was an a-hole.

Falling Down…. It most certainly looks different to me as a 41 year old than it did when I was a kid in the 90s.
The line between civilized and loose cannon is razor thin for a lot of people.
