I also remember the TV commercials for Baby, and I really wanted to see it based on the fact that they called the baby dino “Baby,” which was apparently the cutest thing my young mind had ever heard. What a sucker. I don’t trust that bone as far as I can throw it, or whatever.

Patrick McGoohan’s in “Baby”? Patty McG?

Crap.

I’ll watch it.

Oh, he is so busted. He must not have known the little guessing game we play here. Looks like I have to kill another editor….

Also 33, and I don’t remember Baby at all.

Gotta be “Batman Forever”. It may have been better than “Batman and Robin” but not by a hell of alot, plus “Batman and Robin” never would have happened if “Forever” hadn’t been successful. It wasn’t the worst of the franchise but it paved the way for the worst.

I vaguely remember seeing this on the video shelf when I was a kid. I never rented it, probably because I was too busy checking out “The Last Unicorn” for the six thousandth time. Glad to know I didn’t miss much.

As for next week, I’m going to take a dark horse bet and say “Can’t Stop the Music” in honor of that other disco-related movie opening.

Ampersand – If he does, I’m sure it’ll be good.

card, Eric indicated in his call for movie suggestions that he might revisit “Batman and Robin.” I’m really hoping he does. I can’t wait to see what he does with that one.

I agree that it must be a batman movie for next weeks.

I looked at Baby on IMDB and found this jewel of a quote:

“In other words, some days you eat the bone; other days the bone eats you.”

All I have to say is… what?
