Hey Gérard Depardieu! Where Are You?

Yesterday morning I started a book called "The Luxe". This book is pretty much "Gossip Girl" except it is set in 1890. I know, awesome. For those of you not familiar with either of these series of books, they are a quick read about rich kids and those who work for them in NY. "Gossip Girl" is set in the present and was recently turned into one of my favorite T.V shows on the CW. Want me to get real honest now? When the writers strike first happened Julia and I were more sad to see "Gossip Girl" go then "The Office." Whatever, don't judge me, just know that my fingers are crossed that "The Luxe" will become a T.V show soon. Also for the record I have never read "Gossip Girl." The show, and these books are pretty ridiculous, and very sexy.

I wasn't allowed to watch television growing up, except for PBS. I could, however, watch movies on the weekend. So just because I missed out on all the sexiness on T.V doesn't mean I didn't find it on my own in movies. Although was T.V sexy when we were growing up? Now watching re-runs of Saved by the Bell and Three's Company, I think not. Although I did catch an episode of Degrassi: Junior High once, and they seemed pretty sexy to me. I had my favorite movies growing up, and they were broken up into two types, sexy or funny. Some movies could be both, which was rare, but awesome. And a lot of the movies I thought were super sexy as a kid, when I look back on them I realize, more often then not they included some kissing, and a fuzzy fade out shot of some serious canoodling. The allusion of sex was enough for me. I decided to come up with a list.

Top 6 Sexy Movies I Watched as a Kid:

1) Green Card- Apparently I thought Gerard Depardieu and Andie MacDowell finally realizing, its not just about the Green Card, really sexy. I think they only had some intense make out scenes. This movie is slightly funny, but not really.

2)Baby: Secret of the Lost Legend - It took some searching to find this on IMDB, some trivia about it is that "it no longer warrants an R rating" I have no idea why we owned this on VHS when I was younger, but its about a couple who find a baby dinosaur and at some point in the movie they get it on in their tent, well at least they lead you to believe they do. This movie is not funny, its really sad. I watched again and again anyway, for the tent scene.

3)Aspen Extreme- The tag line reads "Two friends looking for adventure discover extreme skiing, wealth, and seduction" So sexy. This has been my favorite movie since I was 12. This movie is also extremely funny.

4)Immortal Beloved - This movie is about Beethoven and his one true love. Gary Oldman stars and basically sleeps with everyone. My parents LOVE classical music, and I passed this one off like it was a history lesson. This movie isn't funny per se, just awesome, then, and now.

5)Youngblood- Rob Lowe getting sexy in the 80's. This is a hockey movie so my parents gave it to my sister and me because we played ice hockey growing up, they had NO idea how sexy it was. Tons of bad language, a team full of guys sleeping around, and Miss.McGill (Mrs.Robertson doesn't even begin to compare to Miss McGill) Major hat trick.

6)Backdraft- They have sex on top of a firetruck, enough said.
