The sun is out and the streets are eerily quiet toady. Is there a holiday I wasn’t informed about today?

Got a couple of new trades in today that you may be interested in: The classic spaghetti western The Good, The Bad And The Ugly, an incredibly young Dustin Hoffman in The Graduate which, I am embarrassed to admit, I’ve never seen. We also have the oft-requested Ichi The Killer and a Dario Argento horror classic Cat O’Nine Tails (which sounds way cooler in Itallian: Il Gatto A Nove Code), starring the impossibly young James Franciscus and Karl Malden as a reporter and a blind crossword puzzle writer hot on the trail of a murderous madman!  And, as I was typing this up we got in a copy of Pirates of the Caribbean: Curse of the Black Pearl, and a brand new unopened Cheats, a high-school comedy about, well, a group of near-professional cheaters starring, among others, Jewel Staite (Firefly) and Mary Tyler Moore. I am actually shaking my head as I type this.

Anyhow, while you’re out and about enjoying this amazing weather, why not wander into the store. And bring us cupcakes while you’re at it.

…And the time has come for Gary to pick his 5 guilty pleasure movies. This was super hard, because… Well just read the post.

I’ve been meaning to weigh in with my Guilty Pleasures post, but I’ve been kinda wrapped up with behind-the-scenes blog stuff this week. I do hope you’re all enjoying the addition of a searchable  inventory.  Now that we have that feature working, it’s time for me to play.

Like Geoff, I doubt that I might feel “guilty” over these choices, but I do recognize that they may not be movies many people would admit to liking. My tastes are my own, and I’m okay with that. My primary expectation from any movie is that I’ll be entertained and I have to admit I’m easily amused. But hey, enough of my yakkin’. Whaddaya say? Let’s boogie!
