I stand corrected. LOL!!!

Cell???? That was Jennifer Lopez.. The Halle berry movie your thinking of is Gothika... I own that movie too

I also love anything with Robin Williams in it.

Patch Adams

What dreams this way come -- I think that was the title. He is trying to find his wife in heaven that committed suicide. Is that right?

Anyone think of the Anthony Hopkins/Debra Winger movie name? It's driving me nuts!

There's another Anthony Hopkins movie where he plays a butler, with Emma Thompson. Great movie, and I love period pieces also, Alex.

LOVED Sixth Sense, haven't seen Village but I will...don't spoil the ending!

Weirdest? The Piano, Holly Hunter was amazing.

Oh, and Gilbert Grape...yes, I'm always watching how actors portray people with Mental Retardation, especailly, since I have experience (in my past life) working with lots of different folks with developmental disabilities. And yes, Leo was right ON that one. Very well done. Also, Dustin Hoffman, Rainman, well done. Oh! and what's his name in The Awakening with Robin Williams, he did a great job.

Not so good job playing MR? Was it Juiliette Lewis? in The Other Sister...I thought her speech capabilities didn't match her apparent cognitive skills...it just didn't jive well for me.

The Baby Boom. Titanic. Good Will Hunting.

The best southern accent? IMHO, being Southern with no accent (?) Natasha Richardson in Nell. She NAILED it!

This is fun! Good thread, Trish! I'm reminded of so many movies I need to purchase.

Hey, how can I purchase all the Disney movies? you know, Snow White, Cinderella, Bambi, sleeping Beauty, etc. Is my best bet e-bay?

YES on Shadowlands, but I don't think Howard's End is right...? Wow thanks for Shadowlands. Whew!

Hmmm, why is Howards End not sounding right?

editing again...Okay, Howards End does indeed star both Anthony Hopkins and Emma Thompson, however, the movie I am thinking of is called "The Remains of the Day" YES! Hey, thanks Penni, you are a dream!

The Best Me~ I found alot of the Disney movies I have at BlockBuster when they have previously viewed movies for sale. I have never had any problems with them working.

Ebay might be a good place to check. You might even have to get into one of those movie clubs . That could get really expensive though!!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
