What's your favorite historically based movie?

twilight021 @twilight021 (2059) • United States 6 Mar 07

With 300 coming out this week, and me just seeing Zodiac last weekend, it got me thinking about historically based movies. By this I mean movies where the story is based around actual events in history. The whole thing may not be...

ancient_whispers Gettysburg is my favorite historically-based movie, but Glory was also very enjoyable. I haven't seen Schindler's List yet but hope to see it in the near future. The only regret I have about Gettysburg is that the movie focused more on the generals and...

ancient_whispers Night At the Museum is one of my favorite movies. I love the two little guys, the Roman and the cowboy, the best :-) I don't think they could have found a better actor to play the part of Larry. Ben Stiller was really good. One of the other reasons I liked...

I want to learn about World War II . . . where do I start?

ancient_whispers @ancient_whispers (126) • United States 15 May 08

I would like to start studying World War II and I have no idea where to begin! I know almost nothing about the major battles. Can anyone recommend any particularly helpful websites? I would like to get an idea of the battles...

ancient_whispers Hi! Thanks for replying. Yes, it's a good idea to start by studying World War I and its consequences . . . I'll get right on it.

Castillo De San Marcos

jeepstergirl @jeepstergirl (396) • United States 15 Dec 06

If you ever get the opportunity to visit St. Augustine, be sure to visit the Castillo De San Marcos. It's a large, beautiful fort right in the middle of the old city.

ancient_whispers I've been to St. Augustine five times (and am going again this fall) and the Castillo de San Marcos is my absolute favorite attraction! You're right, it *is* beautiful! I could spend hours there. In 2003 when I visited, there was a storm blowing in over...

Who are history enthusiasts?

dulag_leyte @dulag_leyte (74) • Philippines 29 Jan 07

I like history and studying about World War II all myself because our town was devastated during the World War II. So what's your favorite subject about the History?

ancient_whispers I am a complete history buff and love studying many time periods. I've been particularly interested in World War II lately and am trying to keep all the dates and places apart in my head. I think what I like most about history is studying about the common...

Which place have the best subs Subway or Quizno's?

smith1987 @smith1987 (13) • United States 29 Jan 07

Subway's have the best subs to me. What do you think?

subs

5 responses

ancient_whispers I've tried both Subway and Quizno's, and although I did have a good chicken parmesan sandwich at Quizno's, I have to say I *love* Subway much more. Nothing beats their seafood salad and swiss on cheddar bread! It's even better when they toast the bread.

St. Augustine, Florida

ancient_whispers @ancient_whispers (126) • United States 15 Dec 06

Has anyone been to St. Augustine, Florida? If so, did you like it? What things did you see and do? Would you go back? I have visited this wonderful, charming historic city four times and intend to go back again next year.

ancient_whispers Actually I have - once I was traveling in Virginia with my family. It was about five in the morning and although the road was at a popular tourist area and was supposed to be marked, there were *no* signs. We were driving around in circles in the dark, and...

ancient_whispers It is probably my second-favorite movie (with Pirates of the Caribbean coming in first). I really loved the action scenes in National Treasure. Actually, I own it, and since you reminded me of the movie, I'll probably be watching it soon again! I'm not really...

Dead Man's Chest

ancient_whispers @ancient_whispers (126) • United States 30 Nov 06

Did anybody see Pirates of the Caribbean 2: Dead Man's Chest? I liked the fighting scenes and the characters but I don't think it can compare to the original. What are your thoughts on Dead Man's Chest? What would you have done...

ancient_whispers I agree; not as good as the first, but still enjoyable. I can't wait for #3 either - it really makes you wonder how they're going to bring some of the characters back to life for the third part. Then again, I guess anything is possible for Captain Jack Sparrow...

Deep pan or Thin crust

Musicial @Musicial (471) 1 Dec 06

I like deep pan, a little more to eat

pizza

9 responses

ancient_whispers I like deep pan better too, but my absolute favorite pizza is the cheese-stuffed crust! Yum. Unfortunately I don't eat out at pizza places much and there aren't too many frozen cheese-crust pizzas. Thin crust can really be crunchy and burned with some brands,...

ancient_whispers I don't leave anything on when I go away but I might try it. During the day I sometimes play music for my kitty. She doesn't like the volume but I do catch her watching TV from time to time, so I stop when I see a station with bright red on it (it seems to be...

How do you keep Cats out of the Christmas tree?

Mommamea @Mommamea (1215) • United States 30 Nov 06

We have three cats. Two of which I cannot keep out of the Christmas trees. Do you have any suggestions? I haven't even put the ornaments on yet and they want to be in it. I also need help on keeping them from eating the artificial...

ancient_whispers There are some scents like citrus that cats really dislike; if you think it's a good idea, you could try to spray something citrus-scented around the base of your tree. The only problem is that they might refuse to go *anywhere* near that part of the room for...

ancient_whispers My favorite Titanic scene was when Jack took Rose down below and they danced with his fun-loving Irish friends. It gave a delightfully cheerful spin to the serious parts of the movie.
