The Best Kevin Costner Movie: The Big Chill and Dances With Wolves

The Best Christmas Gift You Ever Received: One of the fun ones was the time that my dad hid a ring for me in a box of malted milk balls. I was given a silver anniversary snow globe a couple of years ago from a nice young man that I worked with, he was so excited to give it to me. I had to laugh when I got home because it isn’t very pretty. He died suddenly a few weeks ago so that globe means so much to me now.
The Worst Christmas Gift You Ever Received: A really cheap and ugly black plastic box from Wal-Mart long story but that lady gave worse to others so I felt lucky.
Now that at least one person has done them -- thank you, Millie! -- I feel free to do them as well. Let's see here:
The Best Kevin Costner Movie: No Way Out
Liked the suspense and the storyline
The Worst Kevin Costner Movie: Waterworld
Haven't seen The Postman, although I heard it's twenty kinds of horrible, which is why I used the pic, so I'll give Waterworld the nod. It, it wasn't, it wasn't good.
The Best Stephen King Novel/Story: The Stand
I would say the novella Rita Hayworth and the Shawshank Redemption, but I think I'm too influenced by the movie. (Also, his On Writing, of which I've read in parts, is also good, but non-fiction doesn't count.)
The Best Worst Stephen King Novel/Story: Cujo.
Picked it up because a friend in college had it, but I just couldn't get through it.
The Best Seinfeld Episode: The Contest.
It's still The Classic for me.
The Worst Seinfeld Episode: The Finale.
I thought the last episode or two just didn't meet up to the usual Seinfeld excellence.
The Best Rolling Stones Song: Wild Horses
Also, I was actually blown away by Susan Boyle's version of the song. Who'dathunkit?
The Worst Rolling Stones Song: Emotional Rescue
I'm not totally familiar with the Stones whole musical catalog, but of all their hits, this one is the one I liked least.
The Best Saturday Morning Cartoon Character: Bugs Bunny.
Close run with Shaggy and Scooby.
The Worst Saturday Morning Cartoon Character: Scrappy Doo.
Really, anytime the animators took a larger animal and made "cuter", smaller animals or muppets, well, it spelled disaster.
The Best Holiday Dessert: Red Velvet Cake.
Reminds me of my grandmother.
The Worst Holiday Dessert: Pecan Pie.
Yeech.
The Best Movie/TV Cowboy: The Man with No Name, played by Clint Eastwood in the Spaghetti Westerns.
The Worst Movie/TV Cowboy: Name any Dallas Cowboy. :)
The Best of the Newspaper Comic Strips: Peanuts.
Gets extra points for the animated holiday classics as well as some of the other cartoons.
The Worst of the Newspaper Comic Strips: Any of the Judge Parker, Brenda Starr, etc. comics that portray "real" life drama.
The Best of Superman's foes: Lex Luthor.
There's a reason he's in almost all the movies.
The Worst of Superman's foes: Uh, how about Nuclear Man in the movie Superman IV.
Shouldn't count him, since he was not a comic created foe, but jiminy crickets!
The Best Christmas Gift You Ever Received: Too many great ones to count.
Sorry, I know that's a lame answer, but it is true.
The Worst Christmas Gift You Ever Received: We had a company Christmas exchange, and one of the employees -- the one that had me -- thought it was a White Elephant exchange, which it wasn't. I got a sausage.
Guess it's my turn, fwiw.
The Best Kevin Costner Movie: the only one I've seen is the Robin Hood one - and I didn't like that one.
The Worst Kevin Costner Movie: see above. He's not on my top 25 favorite actors.
The Best Stephen King Novel/Story: "On Writing" is the only SK book I've read. Horror isn't really my genre.
The Best Worst Stephen King Novel/Story: see above
The Best Seinfeld Episode: Uhm, the Soup Nazi one?
The Worst Seinfeld Episode: all the rest of 'em. :)
The Best Rolling Stones Song: Ewwww!
The Worst Rolling Stones Song: They all make my head hurt.

The Best of the Newspaper Comic Strips: Peanuts. Snoopy is the DOG!
The Worst of the Newspaper Comic Strips: Dunesbury
The Best of Superman's foes: Lex Luthor
The Worst of Superman's foes: ???
The Best Christmas Gift You Ever Received:Hard to say. When I was a kid, I'd say my bike or my Barbie van. As an adult, last year's copy of Scaramouche was wondermous. But really, it's hard to decide on just one gift.
The Worst Christmas Gift You Ever Received: a pogo stick. never did learn how to work that thing. :)
WandaV's .02 worth

The Best Rolling Stones Song: Sympathy for the Devil, You can't always get what you want, or The Last Time ==> Or the Bitter Sweet Symphony from the Verve

The Best Christmas Gift You Ever Received: Jesus
The Worst Christmas Gift You Ever Received: A pair of feet warmers
God Bless

The Best Kevin Costner Movie: Robin Hood. Alan Rickman and Morgan Freeman save him. The Untouchables, JFK, and 13 Days are a close second. Costner plays Eliot Ness plays Eliot Ness brilliantly in all 3.
The Worst Kevin Costner Movie: Wyatt Earp. Especially since it came out about the same time as Tombstone, which was great. Costner even made me not like baseball movies, and I love baseball movies.
The Best Stephen King Novel/Story: Shawshank Redemption. Respect him, but I don't do horror.
The Worst Stephen King Novel/Story: N/A
The Best Seinfeld Episode: The Parking Garage. Keith Hernandez and the "second spitter" also good.
The Worst Seinfeld Episode: Bubble Boy
The Best Rolling Stones Song: Paint It Black, Ruby Tuesday, then Start Me Up
The Worst Rolling Stones Song: Waiting on a Friend is up there.
The Best Saturday Morning Cartoon Character: Daffy Duck
The Worst Saturday Morning Cartoon Character: Pink Panther. He never even talked.
The Best Holiday Dessert: Homemade ice cream on the 4th of July. At Christmas, it would be Noel Nutballs (kinda like Wedding Cookies, always make me cough when I invariably suck confectioner's sugar down my windpipe though). Honorable mention to the Pecan Log.
The Worst Holiday Dessert: Fruitcake obviously, but I also don't like divinity, the ultimate sugar coma.
The Best Movie/TV Cowboy: John Wayne. C'mon, it's not even close. I did like James Garner as Maverick for a distant second.
The Worst Movie/TV Cowboy: In a serious role, Costner, as covered above. Gene Wilder is pretty bad with his white man afro in Blazing Saddles as well. 'Course that was a comedy allegedly.
The Best of the Newspaper Comic Strips: Calvin and Hobbes.
The Worst of the Newspaper Comic Strips: Doonsbury. Wanted to be political instead of funny.
The Best of Superman's foes: Bizarro. Just watch Challenge of the Super Friends
The Worst of Superman's foes: Batman
The Best Christmas Gift You Ever Received: I've got too many inconsequential things stored in my brain to remember something important like that.
The Worst Christmas Gift You Ever Received: Once received a woman's sweater that was ugly and also not my size. But hey, it's the thought that counts, right?
