Yay for cheesy popcorn!
Voila! Your vote has been changed. I also do a bit of work on the side in Florida elections.

I like the white cheddar stuff, personally. If I could microwave something like that, I would be all over it. Please do some consumer research on the subject and get back to me. Can't be spending my snack budget frivilously.

I looked, but Orville Redenbacher's only has white cheddar in pre-popped. I've never tried it, but my guess would be that Smartfood White Cheddar PopcornÂ[emoji]174[/emoji] or Old DutchÂ[emoji]174[/emoji] is cheaper.

I am going to get myself a good sandwich from the deli, a bag or box of white cheddar popcorn, and watch the heck out of GWTW tonight.

And you have my Â[emoji]174[/emoji] Â[emoji]169[/emoji] â„¢ on that!

I'm all settled in, and I found Pop Secret White Cheddar popcorn!

I have to say, GWTW is soooo 1939. I love it. I forget about how the film opens with a musical overture. The movie really is a magnificent production for its time.

Smartfood ROCKS!
So does Old Dutch, but I think we only get it here in Canada... One of our many best kept secrets.

I'm kinda boring. I normally only drink water, but tonight I have a nice big glass of milk!

Lucky for everyone:

a) GWTW has a built in, pre-planned Intermission between the two disks.
b) with the advent of DVDs/VCRs you can PAUSE for bathroom breaks.

For those interested, here's some interesting trivia about GWTW, courtesy of IMDB: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0031381/trivia

Since nobody else has watched any movies yet, I will post comment on the Pop Secret White Cheddar popcorn. I actually didn't get to it last night, as my deli sandwich filled me up. So, today I rented Flight of the Phoenix. I am taking a break from the film to note that the popcorn was disappointing. It smelled promising, but doesn't taste anywhere near as cheesy as the pre-popped stuff.

Oh no. I'm sorry you were disappointed by the popcorn. I think all I have is buttered but I'm okay with it! And Heidi that site, imdb.com, is my fave site for movie stuff! It's been my first place to visit whenever I need movie info since high school!

Mr Obvious says: I bet you enjoyed the movie. Was it good?

So, what was your deli sandwich? The fanciest I get is going to Subway and asking for double dijonaise mustard.
And now that I think of it, the microwaveable chedda' popcorn really only has the cheese butter going for it, so I can see why you like the pre-popped stuff better. They are able to get more of the cheese dust onto the corn.
I think I am going to pick up some SmartfoodÂ[emoji]174[/emoji] for GWTW.
Was Flight of the Pheonix good?

I'm in the middle of Flight of the Phoenix right now. According to my friend the original is practically required viewing for any managment training college work, because each of the characters represents a specific personality type encountered in the workplace.

GWTW is always a good 4 hours spent.

Yeah, it just makes it more fascinating that George Lucas did that movie.
