My mom loved Tom Selleck, Burt Reynolds (I thought they were the same person as a tyke), and Charles Bronson. My dad…I think he was a Bo Derrick guy, but I know he hates Susan Sarandon for some reason.

My mom adored Sam Eliot. She dragged me to see the Val Kilmer Batman, during which she said “ooh…those lips!” I think Tombstone was one of her favorite movies because it’s good and because of the men in it.

Yep, she was a huge Babylon 5 fan as well as this little known show Scarecrow and Ms King. For Mother’s Day a few years back I photoshopped her face onto this promo photo from the show and framed it for her. 😂 https://preview.redd.it/cgclgk0wkiof1.jpeg?width=1280&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ac2ffa17bc37502b22740eee7199e3464a99b137

I have no idea, not a conversation I would ever had. My fiance told me once that when the two of them went out to lunch she mentioned how she really liked Thor, I cant remember the actors name. I literally have no idea for my dad, but I use to tape, yes tape every red wings game when i was i think in jr high. Lucy Lawless, who played xena, sang the national anthem, and her dress fell down, I vividly recall him asking me the next day if I recorded it.
