    Bow to the queen of slime, the queen of filth, the queen of putrescence. Boo. Boo. Rubbish. Filth. Slime. Muck. Boo. Boo. Boo.

    Princess Bride, another one of my favorites.

    Starman, Remo Wiliams..., Berry Gordy's The Last Dragon, I'm Gonna Git You Sucka, Better Off Dead... Any of those movies come on right now, and I'll stop what I'm doing and watch. I could go on and on...

    P.S. HUGE fan of "The Princess Bride" but not really underrated now given its cult following.

    NIIIIIIIICE! I loved that movie, for some reason.

    Also, The Hollywood Shuffle. Or, at least up until the "Sam Ace" bit. It goes downhill after that.

    Winky Dinky Ho-Cakes! Hoes gotta eat, too!

    couldn't remember any off the top of my head but I read the list and second (or third, fourth or fifth) whoever said the Lost Boys.... I totally love that film...... interestingly first time I saw it I was in love with Corey Haim.... then I saw it a couple of years later and realised that Kiefer Sutherland was way sexier... I guess you call that growing up :laugh:

    ETA: just read the post above and I also second Dead Poets Society

    Weird Science.

    Kelly LeBrock at her hottest, Anthony Michael Hall at his funniest, & Bill Paxton at his most obnoxious.
