The cool meme...everybody is doing it..or how to play with the Alphabet.

It is raining. Again. Still.
I am waiting, because I know any minute there will be an ark arriving. There is THAT. MUCH. RAIN.
So as i sit here, trying to decide what water-wings go best with jammies (hey, it IS Saturday morning, and i stayed up watching The Witches of Eastwick until 4am), I present to you the meme that all of the cool kids are doing. A great way to pass the time and give you something to read without having to really think.
And yes, these are all movies i have seen, although I admit to having to look up one for "x".
(and yes, i realize that there are a LOT of Hepburn/Tracy/Bogart films..I have a weakness)

The Rules

1. Pick one film to represent each letter of the alphabet.

2. The letter "A" and the word "The" do not count as the beginning of a film's title, unless the film is simply titled A or The, and I don't know of any films with those titles.

3. Return of the Jedi belongs under "R," not "S" as in Star Wars Episode IV: Return of the Jedi. This rule applies to all films in the original Star Wars trilogy; all that followed start with "S." Similarly, Raiders of the Lost Ark belongs under "R," not "I" as in Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark. Conversely, all films in the LOTR series belong under "L" and all films in the Chronicles of Narnia series belong under "C," as that's what those filmmakers called their films from the start. In other words, movies are stuck with the titles their owners gave them at the time of their theatrical release. Use your better judgement to apply the above rule to any series/films not mentioned.

4. Films that start with a number are filed under the first letter of their number's word. 12 Monkeys would be filed under "T."

5. Link back to Blog Cabins in your post so that I can eventually type "alphabet meme" into Google and come up #1, then make a post where I declare that I am the King of Google.

6. If you're selected, you have to then select 5 more people. If you want to do this, just do it. Hey, it is Saturday, and there is no pressure at all!

My favorite part is that the anti-tagging people part has caught on.

Kind of like the "you-can't-make-me-do-it-but-i-will-do-it-cause-i-want-to" mentality often found in toddlers....Hmmm what does that say about us?

Nice one, Kim. Glad you joined in.
