    1. Disorderlies (starring The Fat Boys)
    2. Dude, Where's My Car? (This film was trying to tell us something. Watch closely!)
    3. It's Pat: The Movie (Ahead of it's time; Very important subject matter in today's climate)
    4. Cyrano de Bergerac (1990)(Did you really think Gerard Depardieu would not make his presence felt in a top 5 list?)
    5. A Vampire in Brooklyn (You've seen him in Nutty Professor and The Golden Child, but have you seen Eddie Murphy like this?!)

    I forgot all about Disorderlies. That just made my day

    Ah the fat boys lol - anyone remember crush groove ?

    My own personal list is based on "rewatchableness":

    West Side Story
    Jaws
    The Godfather
    The Music Man
    Secret Life of Pets

    Don't judge me.

    Jaws was a classic. I think I was just too young to actually watch all of them but I should lol. Great list.

    Which godfather was your fav? I've only seen part of the first.

    Yes! Watch Jaws again. It's pretty freaking great. Do not, however, watch ANY of the sequeIs. Fun fact: When Jaws was released, I was 5. My parents planned a night out. We (mom, dad, me and my older brother) were going out to dinner and then to a drive-in showing. After dinner I managed to slip on a rug at the entrance to the restaurant (Mama Bravo) and crack my face open on the CIGARETTE MACHINE. Yes, a cigarette machine. (This was the 70s, people!) After an emergency room visit, 5 stiches above my eye and what I assume were some highly suspect narcotics, my parents STILL took us to the movies. LMAO They were going to have that date night no matter what.

    OK, so I know everyone says Godfather Part II is better, but I cannot get into it. My love for the original is so strong for so many reasons.

    Haha maybe I'll try to watch it within the week 😋 Lol they aren't as good? Okay. Noted haha. Thanks. Wow that sounds like a crazy night especially the fact that you were Young lol. I guess nothing stopped them from that. Seems like it was worth it to be able to watch it 😂 even though your face probably hurt lol.

    Respect for pumping iron.

    I keep the dvd handy and have it on about once a month. I’m not really watching it, it’s just fun to have on in the background.

    Wait.
    You can’t get into Godfather Two?
    How is that possible??

    ‘Three’ I understand..... but Two ?

    In my not so humble opinion, Godfather Two is pretty amazing.

    Pumping iron is freakin' awesome...Arnold being the best part in showing that he is far more than just a juiced up meat head...how manipulative he is & all the mind games he plays with his competitors. He is far more complex, egotistical, manipulative, smart, ambitious, and charismatic than one would imagine based on his appearance alone (not your stereotypical meat head)
