    TOP GUN!


    Seriously though, for purely technical reasons, Titanic (1997) is my favorite. For the acting, pretty much anything with Sir Anthony Hopkins are tops on my list.

    Just finished watching Iron Man on Blu-Ray disc after blowing the dust off of the case (haven't watched since last Spring). I really like this one for the story as well as the PQ/SQ. Some really great LFE in it. Star Wars, LOTR also rank at my top. I really like THe Dark Knight and WOTW too.

    I couldn't help but notice your top three favorite movies all deal with time travel.

    As for me -
    Edward Scissorhands, Pi, Spinal Tap, Rushmore and and Dead/Alive get the most play.
    I never had it like this where I grew up. But I send my kids here because the fact is you go to one of the best schools in the country: Rushmore. Now, for some of you it doesn't matter. You were born rich and you're going to stay rich. But here's my advice to the rest of you: Take dead aim on the rich boys. Get them in the crosshairs and take them down. Just remember, they can buy anything but they can't buy backbone. Don't let them forget it. Thank you.Herman Blume - Rushmore
