Shanghai Noon. Nuff\' said :-)

Well, I just like stuff like Bill and Ted\'s Excellent Adventure (And Bogus Journey), along with the goodies like Star Wars and stuff like that. I really haven\'t been a movie freak at all, since my mom\'s a disney freak. I could bet that I\'ve seen every big disney movie from 1992 to 1998 :P

See Yuz.

I\'m a big fan of Office Space myself.  Let\'s see, other movies I liked: Varsity Blues, Any Given Sunday (cause I like the football), Three Kings, Ferris Bueler\'s Day Off, Dumb and Dumber, etc.

Oh yeah, and you can\'t forget Dude, Where\'s My Car!

Hey all you young people, there were actually a few movies made before 1998 you know.  Many of you just rattle off a list of stuff that came out in the last couple of years, and it seems like a crime to stack this crap up against the entire history of cinema.  Go to a video store, watch AMC or IFC... even in pan\'n\'scan and edited versions, you\'ll see films that make your lists look like dung.

LIC & MM, I like your lists though.  I just got the new DVD release of "Breaking Away" which was released in 1979.  That film is so awesome; it\'s been on my Top-10 list since the beginning.  That thing just kicks ass, and you can learn a lot about dialog, editing and transitions from it.  Check it out!

Nothing like asking someone their favorite movie and getting over 30 responses.

Granted it would be tough as hell to narrow down to one.  Especially when there are different qualities of movies.  Are we talking movies that I could watch 50 times?  That would have to be a comedy (Happy Gilmore, Caddyshack, Tommy Boy, Fletch)  You can\'t go wrong with any of those.  Then there are movies you appreciate (Shawshank Redemption, American Beauty, Life is Beautiful).  Then there are just plain entertaining movies (Indiana Jones, Star Wars, Lock Stock....., Seven)

I can\'t think of what my favorite would be.  Although I have watched Happy and Tommy boy about a billion times, so I may have to go for one of those.

And how in the hell did Glitter get in there?
