Day At The Movies

 Today was one of those days where if you liked movies and you were a guy, you were like a pig is shit.  On TCM, it started at 11:30 AM CT with "The Magnificent Seven" followed by "Maverick" then "The Great Escape." That was just in the afternoon.  This evening is "Bullitt" followed by "The French Connection" then "Bonnie and Clyde."  I own the "The Magnificent Seven" and "The Great Escape", but it sure was fun to watch them both together.  Late in the evening tomorrow, they are showing the movie "On The Beach."  This is the one that stirred the soul of Bonnie Dobson to pen the immortal "(Walk Me Out In The) Morning Dew."

Sunday is the Super Bowl, and for the those who could careless about the game, they created the super expensive yet funny commercials.  Lest we forget what traspired from just a few years ago.  I offer the ten best commercials from 2007, 2008 and 2009.
