81. Moonstruck (1987)

98. The Talented Mr. Ripley (1999)

100. South Park: Bigger Longer & Uncut (1999) I've seen parts of it, and Rebecca rented it like 93 times in college, but I just...I've never been interested in South Park. Meh.
Oh man. I just want to go through my DVD collection and write about it more and more. One good thing about my own apartment would be finally having enough shelf space for it all.
Also, did I like "Sin City" enough to buy it, or did I enjoy it more because I saw it whilenymeria was visiting? Considerations...

Date: 2008-07-05 03:19 pm (UTC)Out of Africa is a good one.. mainly for the visuals
Children of Men is just.. scary and not in the that guy has a knife way.. more in the way that the beginning of The Stand scares the living crap out of me because I can see it happening.
Unforgiven... Clint Eastwood and God go out killing Hooker Killers... How can God not make you want to watch this movie?... HE IS GOD for GOD SAKE?!
Saving Private Ryan... Everyone should be forced to watch the opening of this movie.. maybe then it would make them appreciate what others have done so they have the right to spit on them
As for Pretty Woman... eh... your not missing anything.. of the Romantic Comedy genre... it is highly overrated...
