No, I wasn’t into so bad it’s good until lately.

I blame Beebs.

Heh. Another just crappy one is House, 1985, William Katt.

I preferred the version with Hugh Laurie.

LMAO! We were just reminiscing about this at work last week. A few of us from work planned a "dinner and movie" night - we went to a Mexican place near the theater, then attended the movie. I thought it was AMAZING - we all laughed so much and had a great time - couldn't wait to get the DVD. My son heard me go on about it and got it for me as soon as it came out. I rushed home that night, couldn't wait to put it in and watch it again. ... About 15 minutes in, I start thinking .. whaaa..I remember this being so much better. About 30 minutes in, I remembered the rather large pineapple margarita I'd enjoyed with dinner before the movie and had my AHA moment...

SO, my recommendation? Copious amounts of alcohol improve your viewing pleasure - at least for this particular film.

The book is also excellent. It was, I believe, the first in an entire new sub-genre. In addition to the one Bob mentioned, there's Jane Slayre, Sense and Sensibility and Sea Monsters, and others I'm sure.

The (new) author has a postscript explaining his writing process. He had the whole original text in a Word document and entered his revisions in red. His goal was to have an edit on every page. Sometime it was just a word or two, sometimes a sentence, sometimes whole paragraphs. And the result is so much more pleasing that the original.

In a related vein, there's a new horror film that made the Fathom Events circuit called Winnie the Pooh Blood and Honey, which imagines Pooh and Piglet as slasher killers. They're played by human actors wearing animal masks (it's extremely low budget). The first Winnie the Pooh book is now in the public domain and fair game for "interpretations" like this. The directors say they want to make other similar versions of children's classics now in the public domain like Peter Pan.

The book (P&P&Z) was quite good - even without the application of alcohol.
