Chris has good taste in his thievery
Using the Entertainment Weekly list of the top 100 movies from the last 25 years you are commanded to:
- BOLD the movie if you’ve seen it
- If it’s BOLD, I saw it and enjoyed it, if it’s BOLD and crossed out I saw it and hated it.
I’ve seen 51 of the top 100 movies and only enjoyed 46 of the 51 (90%). Obviously that means I have great taste in movies and don’t waste my time with the flotsam & jetsam of Hollywood.

Tag, you’re it. Okay, not really since I was never tagged and you already did it, but I thought you’d like to know I copied one of your memes.
Oh man, how can you not like a movie that features Harrison Ford going under cover among the Amish?
On a positive note, I’m glad you’re man enough to admit you liked Moonstruck. One of the few times in my life I’ve been jealous of Sonny Bono.
Please tell me you’ve seen Spinal Tap. Please, I beg of you. If not, we’re sending the wives out and putting it in the dvd player.
Spinal Tap – It’s weird. Ive made it this far in life and the only parts of that movie I’ve seen are the “It goes to 11″ and the foil wrapped cucumber scenes.
Witness – I havent seen it in YEARS so I had to think if I liked it or not. I think its 70-30 on the don’t like side.
Moonstruck – Wow, Nick Cages’ first movie too. His Uncle Francis gave him his break. I think I love every movie Olympia Dukakis has been in (that I’ve seen) and yes, I like Cher… her movies (Witches of Eastwick??) and (sigh) her music too. Got several of them on my iPod.
I made you watch Monty Python & the Holy Grail so, if you have Spinal Tap… I’m there! I’ll even bring the W’08!
