Yay, another stolen blog. I got this one from jcsingsforhim and modified it a bit. It's the AFI's top 100 movies of all time. I've put the ones I've seen in bold and those I'd like to see in italics. I added my favorites at the end. You may notice I prefer children's movies or older ones. I have this thing about happy endings. They don't have to be devoid of conflict or bad guys (Wicked Witch of the West, Mr. Potter, the Civil War, Darth Vader, e.g.) but I like them to turn out nicely.

Oh YEAH!!! I CANNOT believe I left out LOTR!!!!!! Whatssa matta wit me????
And...whaddya mean ya can't whistle..."you just put your lips together and blow." You MUST say that in the deepest, sexiest, sultriest Lauren Bacall voice you can muster!!
OOOO The Brave Little Toaster!!!! "We're looking for the Master!" I just got that on DVD!!
Love you...
I was surprised about your omission of LOTR myself! And I CAN do the sexy Lauren Bacall voice, but I still can't whistle. And I can hear the air conditioner saying, "what are you gonna do, suck me to death?"
There are a few I forgot, but hey, that's for another time...
love you back
You could have watched two movies by the time you wrote that stuff. ;)
Knights Tale ... my favorite and LOTR!!! Okay ... funny story. Do you know that I STILL have never seen the beginning to ET?! Mom took me out to get popcorn because she heard the beginning was intense ... I'm thinking now that I KNOW her, she took me out because SHE was scared!! lol
Brave Little Toaster *crys* blankie ... master ... blankie ... master ... LOVE IT!
