My kids can hear fine, and they both use the captions.

I’m getting old, and my hearing is going. Plus I’ve got ADHD. Captions on all the way.

Plus I watch a lot of foreign films, but I only speak English.

Please don’t arrange to have me sent to no asylum
I’m just as sane as anyone
It’s just a game I play for fun

Canada has given us many great musicians per capita as any other place you can name. Plus Tim Horton’s.

Try to block out the movie and just turn up any of their albums and admire the musicianship. I’d put “Lips” up against almost any shredder you can name, and Robb Reiner puts people like Mr. Ulrich above to shame.

"Everyone was influenced by Anvil. If they hadn't been there, the whole scene would have been different." – Lars Ulrich

This movie has suddenly become very relevant again.

Quite a fetching young couple, too. I hope their love was able to survive the pressures of careers in show business. #FingersCrossed

Upon meeting Fredo for the first time, Arlette was able to relax and admit that maybe this whole “arranged marriage” thing might not be so bad.
