And I loved Young Frankenstein but it's been years since I've seen it.<br /><br />@ Cassi, your daughter is into some serious crime TV, but I can't blame her for needing to stay away from LOTR. I can't watch it either - it's too dark, and if it's anything like the book, they are also too hungry and cold.<br /><br />@Green Girl, I am unfamiliar with your first two references. "The Princess Bride" is one of the richest sources of movie quotes.

It's a silent film, and the peas are narrating a semi-three-stooges short. Close? Or are you all being cool and referring to a much better movie?<br /><br />Oh, and our favorite? Young Frankenstein!

And while LOTR is a favorite of ours, it's still to scary for Emma, so we haven't shared that with her yet.<br /><br />We do reference TV shows we're into at the moment --since we watch everything after it's been out for a while, on DVD, we tend to watch the same series several times a week for a couple of months, as we go through a season. Sometimes Emma gets so comfortable with the characters that she brings them up as if they were friends, and it throws me for a loop. <br /><br />She has a school friend named Abby, and it took me a while to realize that lately, when she talks about Abby, she's talking about the forensic scientist on NCIS :-)Cassihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04058787761575567910noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1805554874942481868.post-9635332198199170632012-10-17T11:38:10.808-04:002012-10-17T11:38:10.808-04:00I'm pulling a blank on that movie quote, but I...I'm pulling a blank on that movie quote, but I adore the conversation about Ruling Elders and the LOR references. What a clever bunch you have in your house!<br />We quote a LOT of random movies--"You're killing me, Smalls" and "S'more of what" and "My name is Inigo Montoyo. You killed my father. Prepare to die." Oh, and "The force is strong in that one" and "These aren't the droids you're looking for."Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
