So I rewatched Father of the Bride last night - some observations...

1. Not on Netflix.  Netflix only has II made a few years later in 1995.  So I googled it and found it free online quite easily.  Nice!

2. It was nicely done.  Steve Martin was perfect for the role.  His daughter was cute, and Diane Keaton did well.

3. I didn't realize it was a remake, with the original 1950 movie directed by Vincent Minelli (Liza's father) and starring Spencer Tracy and Elizabeth Taylor as the bride.  @Road Runner probably remembers that version. :)

4. I wonder if the 1995 sequel was any good?  Has anyone here seen Airplane II?  Was that the movie that gave sequels their bad name? :D

Actually, it was "Invaders From Mars" that holds that distinction.

FWIW, "Ghosts of Mars" is one of the best movies of all time. Historically speaking, it is a sci-fi babe fest.
