So far, our favourite is the Ang Lee flick "The Wedding Banquet." Awww, got me all choked up at the end. Ang Lee is so great. What's your favourite wedding movie? We'll put it on our list!

I am there are a jillion more, but this movie did amuse me. _______________________ Travel quote of the week: "Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did do.

Trelala Cut Rock Total Posts: 131 Last Post: 1/7/2008 Member Since: 7/12/2006	Oh, I love Ang Lee's "Wedding Banquet" too! I should make hubby watch it again so he can be grateful we were spared some of the embarassing wedding games. I like "Four Weddings & a Funeral." It's a classic. Plus you get to see four different weddings themes and colors.

Munchkin Cut Rock Total Posts: 402 Last Post: 11/20/2009 Member Since: 11/3/2004	I love Father of the Bride, both the original with Spencer Tracey/Elizabeth Taylor and the new one with Kelly Williams (Paisley) and Steve Martin. Four Weddings and a Funeral is a great one, as is Runaway Bride, Monsoon Wedding (love Bollywood!) and My Big Fat Greek Wedding. My all-time favorite, though, is Philadelphia Story with Kate Hepburn, Jimmy Stewart and Cary Grant.. The musical remake (High Society) with Grace Kelly, Fred Astaire, Frank Sinatra is good...but definitely not as good as the original! FI would probably say Wedding Crashers and The Wedding Singer. Our movie tastes differ a bit....

monarch64 Ideal Rock Total Posts: 9,544 Last Post: 11/20/2009 Member Since: 8/12/2005	yes Jaders, shout out here for Steel Magnolias! Saw a hometown play based on it as well, it was hysterical, I love Weezie. (Nekkid as a magnolia tree...) Um, back to the subject. My faves are Princess Bride, already mentioned, and Wedding Crashers. I love Intolerable Cruelty even though it's a little dark for a wedding movie it's still fab and I love CZJ as she is always so beautiful, I can't take my eyes off of her in any movie! Hmm...OH! Muriel's Wedding! I forget the name of the actress who plays Muriel but she played the mom in last years Little Miss Sunshine as well and now I believe she has just announced her pregnancy. I love her. She was also in that movie with Cameron Diaz in which there was also a wedding from 2005, I think...can't remember the title. Sorry for the random thoughts and disorganization! American Wedding...although that's pretty raunchy and not one of my favorites. (the threequel to American Pie) I honestly can't think of any more right now! Did you search around on the internet? No wedding movie can be worse for your FI to view than the t.v. shows like Bridezillas or Whose wedding is it anyway...LOL! "Go confidently in the direction of your dreams.

Independent Gal Ideal Rock Total Posts: 5,471 Last Post: 1/3/2009 Member Since: 11/12/2006	So, this weekend's "Wedding Movie Film Festival at Chez Indy" selection was a German film called "The Wedding Party". If I had realized that the German title was "Die Bluthochzeit" (or, roughly, "The bloody wedding") I would have given it a miss. It was supposed to be a hilarious satire involving a kidnapped bride. It had its moments of funniness and the acting was great. But I don't really like seeing people shot or threatened with torture in my wedding movies. You know? It's just kind of a downer. BUT! Anyone who is worried that their reception could go badly, or anyone who thinks theirs DID go badly, watch this film! You will feel oh! so much better. It can't possibly be as bad as this.
