GREAT list :iagree:
"Women... what can you say? Who made em? God must have been a ****in' genius. Hair... They say hair is everything you know? Have you ever buried your nose in a mountain of curls and just wanted to go to sleep forever? Or lips that when they touched yours were like that first swallow of wine after you just crossed the desert? Tits. Hoo-hah! Big ones, little ones. Nipples staring right out at ya, like secret searchlights. Legs. I don't care if they're Greek columns, or second-hand Steinways, but what's between them... passport to heaven."
:iagree:
:iagree:
"Yes, ma'am, Tennessee, that's where I come from.
The greatest state in the Union. They call it the volunteer state.
Right there is where I'm from. Smithville, Tennessee, what a town!
These are all my cousins on my mama's side and these are on my papa's side.
We got the best tobacco there is, too.
More fertiliser comes from Tennessee than any other place in the world."
...yeah, I said it, so what's its to ya?!!??! LMAO!!! moon1 :com:

Good question, hard to break it down into just five, parents used to own a few video stores before Blockbuster and the rest took over...So I have seen a lot...I am guessing somewhere in the neighborhood of 7-10 thousand. Anyway on to the picks (have to make it lucky thirteen):
Backdraft
Legends of the Fall
Old School
Braveheart
Rounders
Heat
The Sixth Sense
Red Dawn
Tombstone
The Great Outdoors "He's got to eat the grizzle"
National Lampoon's Vacation
Shawshank Redemption
To Kill A Mockingbird
Going to have to read these posts again to see if there are any people have listed that I have not seen, there are so many absolutely awfully terrible movies that have been made, it makes me wonder who gave the "OK" or "GO" for films like Kangaroo Jack. Hey I got an idea, lets have a kangaroo take money from two idiots and have them chase it around for an hour and a half, it will only cost several million dollars... Sounds like a winner right? :fingerc:

Interesting Story, the about "The Sting" it was ripped off, or at least the screenplay was, from a book a guy wrote 5-10 prior to its release. My dad was a young attorney at the time and approached by the author of the book, anyway they took the producers of "The Sting" to court and were awarded a very large sum.... Doesn't pay to rip off someone's ideas/work.
That is for all the attorney bashers in the house.

A Time To Love and A Time To Die
Seared into my head what a Communist was. {The Ending}
Got me all keyed up as to why i was going to Nam.
Sad that the current Morons we have for leadership and their backers
are as stupid as they are. If you don't learn from the past..........well u know the rest..............
Agree with many of the others above.
