not nautical, but fun.

oh yes and gilligans island.....
Yes Rocky and Bullwinkle. Sure the animation was awkward but the satire and commentary were the best.

Regular TV, blech! Anything with a laugh track is annoying beyond belief. I'm pretty sure I can figure out for myself if I think something's funny. But for Gilligan I'll put up with it.

Eye candy is nice.

WADR, this has been done many times before. You might want to try a search on "movies", since IIRC there haven't been any new ones (except for the Robert Redford one) issued since the last few of these threads were started. Actually, the older you go the more the movie choices become very interesting!
