Fun Flick Friday #4

FRIDAY, FRIDAY, FRIDAY!!

Who's excited?! I'm guessing, everybody. 

I would be much more excited if I didn't have to work this weekend. But then again, I have to work every weekend. Oh, well. At least I work in an ice cream stand and can have hand-dipped Hershey's ice cream whenever I want it. Silver linings, right? ;)

Before I jump into Fun Flick Friday, I have a quick bloggy question.

I just went back through some of my older blog posts and noticed that I had many more comments on my blog posts than I had been receiving in my e-mails, and I just realized that they've been getting sent to my spam mail! :( If you have ever sent me a comment and I have not responded, I am SO sorry and promise, promise, promise that I'm not a horrible person. I just didn't know that I had a comment!

Is anyone an e-mail/blogger wizard that knows how to remedy this? I have played around with my spam controls and cannot figure it out to save my life. I'll probably just have to keep regularly checking my spam folders which is super annoying because I get my email to my phone and hardly ever check it on the computer. But if needed, I'll do it for you guys :)

If anybody has any advice, please help!!

One more piece of exciting news...when did I get to 32 followers and 1400 page views?! Ahhhh you guys are so awesome and thank you so, so much for making my blogging experience so great thus far! xoxo

 Now, it's time for FUN FLICK FRIDAY!! 

Ding ding whoop whoop pow pow, who's ready?

Did anyone guess the movie from my hint yesterday?

lightning = glass. 

.......

Sweet Home Alabama (2002)

Love, love, love this movie.

Seen it 13216843 times. Really.

If you haven't yet, you must.

And it's one of those movies that plays regularly on TBS, TNT, ABCfam, OXYGEN. And even on the HBO channels sometime. So no excuses to have not seen it by the end of the summer! ;)

This movie stars the oh-so-wonderful, sweet, beautiful...

Reese Witherspoon

with the oh-so-handsome, charming, amazing...

 Patrick Dempsey

 and we can't forget the oh-so-rugged, sexy, and great...

 Josh Lucas

 Quick synopsis: A girl (Reese Witherspoon as Melanie) from a small, redneck, southern town in Alabama gets married (to Josh Lucas, as Jake) right out of high school and decides this life just isn't for her. She up and moves to NYC and starts a new life as a high fashion designer, falls in love and becomes engaged to the NYC mayor's son (Patrick Dempsey as Andrew). Unfortunately, she's not legally divorced yet and has to head back to Alabama to settle things and runs into some unforeseen obstacles.

See the full synopsis here.

Just like How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days, this movie is the perfect combo of serious and funny, a true romantic comedy. And you get to look at P.Dempsey 80% of the movie; you know it's a winner just because of that. ;)

Here a few of my favorite quotes/lines from the movie:

Melanie (to an old friend from home): Look at you....you have a baby! ...In a bar.

Young Melanie: What do you want to be married to me for, anyhow?
Young Jake : So I can kiss you anytime I want. 

 Jake: [not recognizing Melanie in her sunglasses] Can I help you?

Melanie Carmichael: Well, for starters, you can get your stubborn ass down here and give me a divorce.
Jake: You're shittin' me, right?
Melanie Carmichael: I never fully understood that expression, but no, I am not "shitting" you. 

 Jake: The only reason I ain't signing is cause you've turned into some hoity-toity Yankee bitch, and I'd like nothing better right now than to piss you off. 

Mayor Kate Hennings: [smacks mosquito] One down, a six million to go.
Earl Smooter: Careful, you just killed the state bird of Alabama!

Jake: You show up here, after seven years, without so much as a "Hey there, Jake, remember me... your wife!" Or a, "Hi honey, lookin' good. How's the family?"
Melanie Carmichael : You expect me to tell you look good? What, did they run out of soap at the Piggly Wiggly since I left? 

Hilarious.

Here's a clip from one of the funniest scenes...

And here's the original movie trailer..

Have y'all already seen Sweet Home Alabama? If so, do you love it as much as I do? What are your favorite quotes or scenes? Let me know!!

Wishing you all a super fabulous Memorial Day Weekend!! xo
