Halloween Movie Reviews Hijacked!

The furious movie watching has slowed a bit around here as we have been burned by a couple of the public's suggestions (you know who you are: Amy, Hellraiser, really?). To re-charge, I deviated from the list and watched Sleepless in Seattle 10th Anniversary Edition last weekend. Lots of scenes I didn't remember so either they added back some stuff or I have only seen the edited-for-time TBS version. Anyway, Rosie O'Donnell (pre-crazy) is excellent, as is Meg Ryan (pre-botched lip job) and there are a couple of hilarious scenes where Tom Hanks realizes the dating world has changed in the past ten years.

Jonah needs new mom
Annie Reed lives in Balt'more
Meet in Big Apple

Jonah calls in to Dr. Marsha Fieldstone's radio show saying that his dad, Sam, needs a new wife. Meanwhile Anne struggles with her hopelessly allergic fiance. Annie writes a letter to Jonah and Sam which her BFF Becky sends without her knowledge. Jonah writes back telling her to meet them at the top of the Empire State's Building on Valentine's Day. Of course they all meet there and all live happily ever after.

Nintendo score: An oldie but a goodie. Maybe a Princess.
