8am: Coffee and croissants with Phantom of the Opera (I would do this one first, since I know that I've exhausted this one with all of my friends, and only the truly dedicated would come at 8am)
10:30: Fresh coffee made and snacky foods set out, in lieu of lunch, for a loooong movie.
11am: Jane Eyre (oh yeah, baby-four hours of chicky-flickiness)
3pm: A quick jaunt to the mailbox and fifty jumping jacks to stretch my bones.
3:30: Emma or Sense and Sensibility or Persuasion (I will generously allow my guests to choose)
5:30: Set out new snacky foods for dinner, a big, fat triple chocolate bundt cake, and make some kind of delicious, drinky concoction.
6pm: Pride and Prejudice (with Kierra Knightly). I know that this is the more concise rendition, but it's my pretend movie day and I want it. I love it. I've watched it twice this past week and I'm suppressing the urge to watch it again until after I finish the book.
8pm: Open for discussion.... I want to see Becoming Jane (with Jane Hathaway, but I've not seen it, so I cannot justly choose it to put on my schedule until AFTER I've seen it).
10:30: You all may be laughing at me for thinking I can stay up this late, but, again, it's my pretend movie day, so perhaps I'll do what I wish. Oh, and the movie is Clue. Yes, it does not make sense with the preceding movies, but I love it and it's SOOOOO funny. I'll also admit to you that I like to quote this movie while the movie is running, so be prepared. Melissa will come and we will quote the movie together. And annoy the crap out of everybody else. This, of course, pending that I have not fallen asleep on the couch.
Doesn't that sound like fun? Maybe I could even do a "Favorite Musicals" day. And a "Favorite Shakespeare Movie Day". Can you say Mel Gibson in Hamlet? Or Leonardo DiCaprio in Romeo and Juliet (LOVE that movie)? How about a "Charles Dickens Day"? So many ideas, one tiny post. I'll spare you the schedules.
Thank you, Melinda, for the idea. We had loads of fun last night; Melinda keeps me in stitches. And she is a good, good friend. I'm so glad I've met her.

Hooray - I'm so glad you've picked it up again. Wasn't the movie great! I am bummed, I'd LOVE to come for pretend movie day! And I'd so be there at 8am as long as you have cream for the coffee! We do make annual Thanksgiving trips to Laurel! ;p
I'm confused...are you trying to make friends in MS, or scare them all away?
Keep making chocolate cakes and they will come.
CHOCOLATE CAKE...this is what people like.
And I like the name Lincoln.
If you make the Cake they will come. I would also be there at 8 a.m. but only for the food. And I guess for you and you alone would I ever watch Phantom again.
friggin' go rent 'becoming jane'. you will love it! or, if you'd like, we can watch it when i come up next weekend...
