Wait, wait, wait....
David AKA StudDuck is one of the nicest most polite young men, like, ever?
I'll buy that.
1) He is not polite and uses the "f" word all the time when IM'ing me
Only because you provoke me.
even when he's totally wrong about something... like 'Ghost' not being a great film.
Ghost, in terms of quality, is not a great film. It's so 1990 with its cheesy visual effects and its insistance on the fact that anyone could love Patrick Swayze to the point of tears. You conveniently left out the fact that I said I thoroughly enjoyed it and that I thought it was well-written.
2) He has a real thing for Julie Walters, AKA Mrs. Weasley in the Harry Potter movies, and that is just self-explanatory.
It's true. But you make it sound like I have a thing for Julie Walters as Mrs. Weasley (which is somewhat true, but not entirely)... my love for her comes from the film Billy Elliot. See it and you shall understand. She is a goddess.
3) He has tapes of very rare stuff by Stanley Kubrick that he won't even watch out of respect for the man (since it's stuff Stanley himself didn't like). I mean, come on, the guy's, you know, not around much anymore? What's he gonna know?
I do own the first four Stanley Kubrick films which are very rare and he spent years trying to destroy. Out of my respect for him, I am honoring his wishes that no one see them by letting them stay unwatched in my collection. Got a problem with it?
4) He torched the great Alfred Hitchcock's greater 'Rebecca' in a plus or minus game (just to spite me, I'm pretty sure) and he hasn't EVEN SEEN IT.
It was a game. You want to cry some more?
5) He thinks 'Good Will Hunting' is a really good movie!! And I have it on good word that he's seen 'Back To The Future' 600 times!! (Well, those are more of a sanity issue than anything else...)
False, I said Good Will Hunting is a great movie. And if you don't think so, then something is wrong with you (and I'd use the F-word in that sentence if I thought it wouldn't offend anyone). And 600 is a very modest number... I said I've seen Back to the Future at least 600 times. The minimum.
What is this the National Enquirer? Am I having my secrets outed? All of them? How fair is this? (I must admit that I was laughing hysterically reading them... I'm not ashamed... I love Julie Walters... I also love Meryl Streep... who cares?)

As the subject line says I am posting in solidarity with Studly the Duck!
1. David is a darling as are all the young men on this board...and the old ones too...nuff said
2. Ghost is in my opinion not a GREAT film, it was a good film in it's day and I really liked it , but it has not stood the test of time
3. Julie Walters is a fine actress with an impressive filmography, don't diss the woman just because Molly Weasley is a frump. I like Molly Weasley, she reminds me of my own Mum, god rest her. And Billy Elliot is one of the top 5 films of the last 10 years! If you haven't seen it do yourself a favor and rent it!
4. Well studly your on your own on Kubrick, I personally just don't get the guy.
5. It was a game, he played agressively, get over it.
6. Good Will Hunting is a very good film. Robin Williams and Minnie Driver give a brillant performances in it. Matt Damon is good, Ben Affleck is plastic and uninspiring.
7. Well I don't know how many times I've seen Back to the Future, but it's alot becuase I have kids and it's a good film for kids. It's creative, uplifiting and funny. Just the kind of thing you watch when your spirits are low. I personally watch Strictly Ballroom on those days but to each his own.
How well would any of our personal qwerks stand up to this kind of scrunity and teasing.
Careful it almost could go to far and smell of pettiness and meaness
