The Top Spot
Well here it is Total Experience Fans!
The numero uno film choice to NOT have available to view at your house when Trav comes over.
Unless you want to "talk him down" all night.
And you don't want snot all over your couch.
Yes, it's the number one choice on Trav's Top 20 Bawlers list.
Let's recap shall we:
20. Never Been Kissed
19. Stand By Me
18. Edward Scissorhands
17. Anywhere But Here
16. Some Kind of Wonderful
15. My Best Friend's Wedding
14. Riding In Cars With Boys
13. Ghost
12. Powder
11. Buffy episode "The Body"
10. Buffy episode "The Gift"
9. Life As a House
8. Stepmom
7. Fried Green Tomatoes
6. E.T.
5. Dawson's Creek final episode
4. Big Fish
3. Beaches
2. Planes, Trains and Automobiles
and the #1 movie to make Trav cry like a little girl upon EACH viewing is....(drumroll).......
#1: Thelma and Louise
What can I say?
The ending gets me every time.
Ever since I was in high school and this came out.
The whole movie is liberating but at the same time is sad the way it has to turn out.
If you have the dvd, skip to chapter # 31 "Let's Keep Goin'"
Anytime we would go on road trips, Laura Lee T. and I would say we were Thelma and Louise.
Any time Bri and I would drive to Orlando or brave the Savannah Bridge, we would do Thelma and Louise (besides blare Paula Abdul at top volume).
If the end of this film doesn't make me cry enough, then they play the soulful gospel vocal ending music over the credits to sum up everything and THAT has me going til the last credit on the film and the movie is shut off.
So yeh everybody, Trav is a feminist. Go sista soul sista!
You know, in the end, I think that listing all these movies will help me to stop being such a big baby and not turn my face into the "ugly cry" upon repeat viewings.
In the same spots.
At the same musical cue.
Thank you for taking this spiritual journey with me.
I think we've all learned something.
Trav's a big girly man.
And you can all SUCK IT!
On another note, I am heading to VA a day later (actually early morning Friday) to be with sis, ma, the fam. So I will get to play Thelma OR Louise on my 5 hour drive.
I will be back on Wednesday of next week and might post some over my visit (although I will probably be 35 when the blog uploads seeing as ma has a SLOW ASS connection).
I love reading all of your posts so keep it up!
Bri, did you and Mel guess the right #1?
ALso, Mel, I got your message yesterday on my phone and I promise to check in with you sometime over the next few days (today I was sick, thus making me leave later).
Laura L., have a good weekend.
Steph and Jen, I always lump you two vixens together, have a great weekend as well and don't let those deer get into a bloody battle.
And finally Joe, please keep those porn references comin', ok?
Check all yall later!

I GUESSED IT!!!!!!!!
Mel thought it was going to be Steel Magnolia's...not bad, I thought it could be, but T&L was my choice!!!! YES!!!! I rule!!!!!!
I too get teary eyed at this movie. Although for different scenes. Any scene with the sexist truck driver sends me off the deep end. When he does "that buisness with his tounge" that Thelma or was it Louise or Barbara from Beetlejuice, said was "disgusting". A laugh riot. Two words....
FUUUUUUUUUUUCK YOU!
Hahahahahhahaha LOL! So funny.
i guess steel magnolias as a joke too. but its got JULIA! and it's a definite tearjerker. i LOVE DOLLY PARTON and SALLY FIELD. my list would include "smokey and the bandit" and "Straight Talk"
You gotta be SHITTING me, Trav said if we didn't like it we could all suck him, well this movie SUCKS enough for all of us, and then some. Whoda thunk it, bawling at two trailer queens going over a cliff waaaaahhhhhhaaaahhh.
The only reason I would cry is cause they are missing one important trailer queen, before flying off the cliff to trailer heaven, MY EX.
AHAHAHAHAA big wang is big crazy
you leave big wang alone, he's my baby's daddy!
also, i never saw thelma and louise... i think i'm broken.
she is broken.. i've seen it
I got your Planes, Trains, and Automobiles right here!!
MY ASS! Just a piece of advice for all of you out there...do not let Travis play this movie for you! You may end up watching porn to your dismay! I guess I learned a lot though!
Oh Trav, what ever happened to Boys on the Side? Number 21?
"Anything you want....you got it...anything you need...you got it..anything at alllllll, allllll. (Softly now)...Ever time I look into your lovin' eyes, I see a love that money just can't buy-(EVERYONE NOW)...one look-one look-from you-from you-I drift away...I pray-I pray-that you-that you- are here, to stay...." SOBBBB!! WAIL!!!!
Ps. Glad it was T&L! I would not have guessed it, but a darn good choice! I always knew you were a big ol' feminist!
Love you!
