Did you ever know that you're my hero?

Edword · 08-06-2012, 07:49 PM

Sweet Home Alabama! Yes!

I know it's so cliche but Beaches is one of those movies that always makes me sad... I love it. Hopefully "The Rose" will follow suit

Beachguy · 08-06-2012, 07:54 PM

Reese Witherspoon is anything but America's Sweetheart. I've known that since 1999 and Cruel Intentions. And this is not her ex Ryan Phillipe.

I much prefer Sarah Michelle Gellar on a personal level and I hated Buffy the Vampire Slayer.

Reese is falsified nice. Its an act as she can be the vulture from the beach...

critterdvd · 08-06-2012, 07:57 PM

Can't wait for "Sweet Home Alabama"! I actually worse out the DVD in college...

I don't recall anyone on here saying she was America's Sweetheart...

Anyway, totally in for Sweet Home Alabama. Still one of my favourite romantic comedies.

I'm surprised that Beaches is not a 25th Anniversary Edition.

Veronica Mars · 08-06-2012, 09:45 PM

Glad to finally see the Sweet Home Alabama announcement, but I'd heard this would come at the same time as While You Were Sleeping.

I hope that one didn't get canceled or pushed back.

Wind Beneath My Wings is one of my favorite songs... ever. I am going to have to own this Blu-ray. Also in for Sweet Home Alabama

Canuck21 · 08-07-2012, 04:17 AM

Hmm... I'm not sure if I should buy this one. I liked it a lot when the movie came out because I was very much into Josh Lucas at the time. Not so much now, so I'm not sure if I'll enjoy this movie today.

I saw Beaches 2 years ago (an evening in my summer house) in my laptop with headphones, lying in my bed..

I'm glad this is being released in Bluray!

Are you kidding?

I know there was a sequel to Beaches in book form, but I've never heard of a movie. I wish they would've used the original DVD cover for the Blu (the one with the piano). Day one purchase for me!

ETA: I think the poster meant that they watched Beaches TWO years ago, not Beaches 2.
