    Sounds ok to me....But I'll yield to the Gentleman from Missouri to give his opinion of "Ride with the Devil"....somehow that does seem appropriate! :D

    (Joking!)

    I'm personally pleased with Montana's, A River Runs Through It is a great movie, and I loved it. One of the few I've purchased on DVD for repeated watching. There were a few others which featured Montana in them, but that one is the best of the lot.

    Used to live in Oklahoma... can't disagree with Twister at all. It even featured the leading TV weather man at the time as the leading TV weather man at the time...

    Maine seems like it could have chosen from a number of Stephen King greats...

    The one with Clint Eastwood, "Joe Kidd"? Or "The Missouri Breaks". Or any Mark Twain book that was made into a movie, Life on the Mississippi (movie?), Tom Sawyer, Huck Finn, etc.

    Would that be a Hindu devil, a Muslim devil, a Christian devil, or a Tasmanian one? :confused:

    Yeah, it sounds about right for Baltimore's row homes with front yard decorations....Pink Flamingos....or Plaster Deer ...or garden gnomes. (Tres tackee!)

    unfortunately, the movie itself is about some cross dressing dude who thinks he is a she...or something. So, yeah, unfortunately, its appropriate for Merryland.

    I think "Grumpy Old Men" fits Minnesota better than "Fargo" but then again we just moved here. Can't read what they have for Illinois, anything having to do with crooked politicians would be appropriate.

    Sweet Home Alabama, to me, would be a better choice than My Cousin Vinny for my great state. It was certainly a closer depiction.

    For Louisiana, I'd have preferred "Belizaire, the Cajun", or "Blaze", or maybe even "Everybody's All American". But my all-time Number one choice would be "The Big Easy".

    What about Washington DC - "One Flew Over the Cukoo's Nest"?
