In the States, if the groundhog, Punxsutawney Phil, sees his shadow, they say "Shit. SIX MORE weeks of winter!" In Canada, if Wiarton Willie sees his shadow, we saw "Alright! ONLY six more weeks of winter!".
 
Bill Murrary rocks.

Not sure why he went after Andie McDowell in that flick.

I thought the red-headed chick was hotter (the one who screams like a chipmunk). :p
 
"Ned... Ryerson. "Needlenose Ned"? "Ned the Head"? C'mon, buddy. Case Western High. Ned Ryerson: I did the whistling belly-button trick at the high school talent show? Bing! Ned Ryerson: got the shingles real bad senior year, almost didn't graduate? Bing, again. Ned Ryerson: I dated your sister Mary Pat a couple times until you told me not to anymore? Well?"
 
I love Bill Murrary.

You may want to check out some of his later stuff.

Lost In Translation showed he could do serious stuff, too, imo.

The Man Who Knew Too Little was good, too. Classic Murray, in his older years.
 
I am watching the movie right now! It is one one of the special HD channels on bell. :) Love this movie!
 
Will you get to watch it again when it is over?
Of course... it's one of those movies that seems to be on all the time! I remember when I was a kid, they showed the "Wizard of Oz" one night a year; period. If you did not see it that night, you weren't going to see it again for another year (same with most movies back then). Now there are so many channels with airtime to fill they show these movies almost non-stop.
 
Whoosh. The Illuminati posts sails right over the head of above poster.

To be more accurate skippy, Illuminati should have said "Will you have to watch it again when it is over?" as Bill Murray was not reliving ground hog day because he got to. But, thanks for your input!
 
6 more weeks

6 more weeks in US. But Shubenacadie Sam and Wiraton Willie did not see their shadow so it's predicted that winter will end sooner in Canada.

Because it is in the script ? :D

Not true.

Not everyone in Canada likes winter.

The best kind of winter is the one you watch from a beach on TV.
