The "Best Movie Kissing Contest", Winner!

As moderator of this most important election, I decided to cut the voting off early today for a couple of reasons..

A: I know those of you living in the lovely USA have a nice long holiday weekend to look forward to and I doubt many of you are going to be spending it online.

B: Most importantly, when I looked at the poll this morning and saw there were 302 votes (WOW) with a certain scene leading by 266 to 36, I decided to put poor 'Rose' and 'Jack' from the "Titanic" out of their misery. A certain ship can only be pummeled by so many icebergs and sink so many times after all. Poor thing....

So, the BEST EVER "Kissing Scene In a Movie", according to all of you who stopped by and cast your vote over the last number of weeks is....

No Surprise Here (LOL):

Drum Roll Please

"Margaret and John"

"NORTH AND SOUTH"




I'm not going to post the video from North and South again because it's been up so many times and I thought this picture passed to me by Barbara, illustrated the moment exceptionally well. :)

I bow to the perfection of the scene kissage from "North and South", however I have a personal favorite of all the videos we have had to choose from over the past few weeks and couldn't resist posting it. lol

This would be the
scene from the movie "Catch and Release", staring Timothy Olyphant as 'Fritz' and Jennifer Garner as 'Gray'. This scene was originally suggested by VampFanGirl.




For anyone who stops by and would like to comment, I would LOVE to know what your personal kiss scene favorite was? Click here to see the various posts.

Finally, I am going to ask if you would be interested in participating in a "Best Television Kissing Scene", poll/election? This would start in September and finish prior Christmas. :)

(No Kristie, You Cannot Re-Submit North and South. lol).

This would include television series, mini-series, reality television, soaps, you name it. I have a few hunted up already, however would need some help because I watch next to no television.

By "help", I don't mean just the name of the television scene, I would need the actual You Tube link. :)

Thank you EVERYONE who contributed ideas for the "Best Movie Kiss Scene" vote.

An extra special THANK YOU to all of you who stopped by and voted, making it so much fun!!

Have a WONDERFUL weekend everyone. :)

Hi Lea!

Sounds like a great poll to me. I start looking for some links of my favorite TV smooches.

Dottie :)

Lea said...

I too will accept the mission. Thanks for the great polls and have a great day, don't work to hard. :)

Cecile said...

Hey Lea, sounds like a great new poll to tackle and vote on!!

I got fussed over at Kristie J's place for not watching North & South... so, one day I am heading off the movie rental place and picking me up the copy... because after all I did vote for that one!

Erotic Horizon said...

302 - oh WOW - that is alot and way to go for North and South.

Well done... beautiful picture..

E.H>

Barbara said...

YAY! I loved North & South. I love that pic too! Captures the moment perfectly.

Oh and Catch & Release was a GREAT movie. I loved that scene.

Honestly though, I'd have to say my all time favorite kissing scene is the one in the rain with Noah and Allie from The Notebook. Sigh...so passionate. You just felt all their pent up desire and need in that moment.

Great job with this Lea! ((hugs))

Blodeuedd said...

Lea,

Yay, yay! :D North and South rocks!

But other kissing scenes, well I always did think the end kiss in Pride and Prejudice was cute

MsMoonlight said...

Television show kisses huh? OK, I'll think about it for a while and get back to you Lea. What fun!
:o)

Amy C said...

Well, I can't help you out with any suggestions for tv scenes. I have never been a big tv watcher and nothing is coming to mind. But i can certainly help out with the voting :)!

Charlotte Featherstone said...

Catch and release...rawr!!!! Good old fashioned passion and lust! I love it.

N&S. I have watched that scene so many times my DVD is warped! I love it, so romantic and the depth of longing palpable.

Awesome poll!

Stacy~ said...

Ya for North & South! It got my vote. Now I think I need to rent "Catch & Release".

Lea said...

Hey Ann Marie!

LOL - I'm pleased you are willing to join in the "mission"... I'm going to miss all this kissage every week!!!

But it will be fun to do something in September again!

Thanks for your note!

Hey Cecile:

I KNOW!! I was "fussed on" too with respect to the video and picked up North and South this week. Now I just have to find the time to watch it!! lol

Great Contest you've got going on over at your blog girl!!

Warm Regards

EH!

I KNOW!! I couldn't believe it when I looked at the count this morning! The "Crusader" lobby does have a far reach!! - lol

Warm Regards

Hi Barbara!

I agree, "The Notebook", was a beautiful one too. And, it was the ONLY movie kissing scene that nearly vanquished North and South!!
lol

Thanks for the picture by the way!

Have a great weekend..

Hi Blodeuedd:

Well North and South is certainly the favorite by far - and it was a lovely scene. I've never seen the one from P&P. Maybe we can include it in the fall vote?

L

Hi Ms.M.!

Awesome! I would be so grateful for your help!! Yeah - let me know!!

Warm Regards
L

Hey AmyC!

Without the voting there would be no election, so you go girl!! This fall we will get something up and running again!

Warm Regards
L

Hi Charlotte!

Thank you for your comment! I KNOW! I just think that Catch and Release scene is so HOT... Angst and passion - great combination. :)

I've not watched North and South yet but will!! It's here in my desk mess looking at me.. lol

Warm Regards
L

Hey Stacy!

LOL Considering the voting numbers, you sure weren't alone - Landside victory for North and South, thats for sure. I have to say though, Catch and Release rocks my socks!

Have a great weekend Stacy!

Bridget Locke said...

I've got a couple of ideas for best TV kiss. :) I'm a big fan of good kisses. :)

Can it be multiple kisses (as in multiple shows) or are we only allowed one to recommend? 'Cuz that would make it a thousand times harder. :P

And congrats to North & South! I'm a N&S Crusader and I put the blame squarely on Ms. KristieJ's shoulders. That movie just melts me. :)

Lea said...

Bridget, Any help will be so appreciated, so you can suggest as many as you like... :)

I like good kisses to - especially when there is great onscreen chemistry between the actors!

Thanks for your comment! As you can see, I'm under construction... lol

Bridget Locke said...

Cool! Will do some thinkin' and looking at Youtube. Will email you linkies when I get a chance. I've got quite a few in the back of my mind, just an FYI. :D

Lea said...

Thank you Bridget!

I will look forward to hearing from you. :)

L

Renee said...

Yay, North and south! I'm beaming. I never get tired of that clip. :-P

Lea said...

Good to hear Renee... :)

Teddyree said...

Woot Woot for North & South. Will put my thinking cap on for best TV kissing scenes

VampFanGirl said...

*sigh* I really love that scene from 'Catch and Releas'. It's just so...dramatic. Thanks for posting the video for it again Lea.

Congrats to 'North & South' for winning the Best Kissing Scene!!

This so much fun Lea. What's next??

:) VFG

Lea said...

Hey VFG!

Nice to see your note! Next is Television kissage starting in the fall, I hope.

Any suggestions and I'm all ears. :)

Warm Regards
L

Lea said...

Hey Teddyree!

Thank you, I'd appreciate any suggestions, the more the merrier!!

Warm Regards

Kristie (J) said...

Arrggghhh - I thought I'd left a comment. What I said in the one I thought I'd left is *um* you DO know that North and South has been on television don't you? And yet you are disqualifying it?
Humph!

Seriously - I can get on board with the television kissing scenes - even sans North and South *sigh* I even have one in mind and I know it's on YouTube.
And I can't think of a more deserving scene to WIN!!! I AM waiting for your thoughts on it. Hopefully you will have seen it before June 13 - heh heh heh heh!

Lea said...

So Kristie...

What is this television scene that is going to win in the fall????

Or do I have to wait until June 13th to find out?? hmmmm...

LOL
I hope you have a great day!
L

Kristie (J) said...

I will tell you in a couple of weeks - heh heh heh.

Heather D said...

TV kissing scenes...sounds like a plan. I don't watch much television myself but I will scour the net for some hot kissing!!

My favorite kissing scene from the ones to choose from would also be from Catch and Release.

Lea said...

WOOT, another "Catch and Release", girl!!!

Too bad it got eliminated in the early voting Heather...

(Kristie called in the Crusaders!!) lol

TV Kissing scenes it is!!

Warm Regards
