i think it didnt do well in the theatre b/c of the title..big mistake not getting the oscar that year...anyone know who did get it that year?


Shawshank was nominated, lost to Forrest Gump. Hanks also beat out Freeman for best actor, but that was deserved in my opinion.

Was nominated for 7 awards, zero wins.

any other year shawshank would have won best pic. imo, but went up against the popular forrest gump.

alot of good selections here. i'm surprised no one's mentioned Remember the Titans.

Shawshank in my top 5, would have to think about the others.

what i can say is when i'm flipping thru channels if i come across fletch, caddyshack, rounders, titans, shawshank - and gulp - yes - Topgun, i can't turn them off.

not saying topguns in my top 5, in fact it isn't, but i've seen that darn movie at least 30 times. just can never turn it off!

Over the Top (Sly Stallone wins an arm wrestling match to win his sons love!)

Rhinestone (Sly Stallone wins a country singing challenge!)

Anything with Arch Hal Jr. (EEgah, Nasty Rabbit, The Sadist)

Blood Sport (Van Dammes finest "acting")

I resent over the top being a good bad movie. its a great movie and should have won stallone a best actor award.

anyway: best of the worst

Roadhouse- awesome

Cool as Ice- great dialogue with vanilla ice and a touching love story.

Showgirls- yum

Breakin'- lots of agents dance moves

Spaceballs- star wars spoof

Any planet of the apes orginal movies

gl

edit cause i forgot to include the classic Licensed to Drive with corey haim and feldman. man that mercedes chick was hot. or any corey haim or feldman movie for that matter rules.
