I'm never good at picking "favorites, but I like all these a lot: The Godfather, Goodfellas, Pulp Fiction, Crash, Braveheart, Count of Monte Cristo, Meet the Parents, Fargo, Ocean's Eleven, and Jerry Maguire.

Also, from the old days (high school) Back to the Future and The Breakfast Club.

I get the feeling you just like the idea of piloting an aircraft with some guy "riding" directly behind you! LOL

(it's a good fantasy to have I guess)

and I agree with caddy shack, princess bride, blazing saddles. I would have to add silent movie to that....also high anxiety...Mel Brooks is a master of humor.

Chick Flick.....conspicuously empty category


I saw a chick flick once. It was called "Sisterhood of the Traveling Ya Ya Pants" or something. It had a Judd in it I think. Not the old lady or the one with the big jaw, but the other one.

In my defense, I was on a plane and the "fasten seatbelt" sign was on and I didn't have a parachute.

Honestly though, I didn't understand a word of it. My wife says it was because I'm a man, but I think it was more because I didn't shell out the $5 for the earphones.
