Sorry, it's just one of those movies that I fell in love with as a kid and still love singing along.

I'm going to add 5 more to my list, but they are all the same basically - Rocky I thru V. I know some of you will say that 2 stuck or that 5 stunk,etc., but to me, they are all great. For whatever reason, there has not been a Stallone movie I haven't liked - even Over The Top. (although I never Watched throw Momma From the Train) Kind of the same thing with Bruce Willis - from Die Hard series onward, I just like his movies.

I already listed my favorite. A few others I really enjoyed:
Much Ado About Nothing (Kenneth Branagh)
Harry Potter (both of them, Kenneth Branagh was in one of those too)

CubDave--LOL. Stallone was not in Momma From the Train. He was in some lame movie--something like "Look Out My Mother Has a Gun"

Are you OK CubDave?
First, its sucked, not stuck - and yes it did.
Second, Stallone was not in Throw Your Momma From The Train.
Third, have you seen Stop! Or My Mom Will Shot!, Spy Kids 3-D: Game Over, Judge Dredd, and especially Oscar?
Fourth, stand up on your chair and yell: YO ADRIAN!
Everything will be better for the remaining hours of this day.

No - I was at the dentist so a bit loopy and keystroke deficient today, T, as some anon in the Marketing Forum tried to point out. And no, I did not see any of those other Stallone movies, and now I don't think I will. I did really like CopLand. Yo T!

Dawnie,
There's five Star Wars movies, but only four on your list. Which one didn't you like?

I really liked Men In Black, can't go by Flushing Meadows without laughing at the old NY Pavillion. Finally an explanation.

Episode one leaned too much on the computer abilities and not enough on the story. They left out some very important clues and character development issues. So...while I do own it of course, it didn't get to the list of the very very best I have had a chat with George about this and he promised not to ever lean on a Jar Jar based plot again.  (sure it was in a dream...but I think he got it!)

TNT has been showing While You Were Sleeping over and over and over the last couple of weeks. I'm embarassed to say that I've watched it at least 3 or 4 times during that time! It's just so sweet - I love that part at the end where she says, "Not that one, that one."
