Me neither, but since no provision was made in the OP for any equipment with which to play/watch them, it doesn't really matter. So I'll be watching all my favorite movies... in my head.

RickC Sniper · 01-23-11, 07:15 PM

OK, my 5. I'm biased because I love westerns and war movies.

The Searchers

To Kill a Mockingbird

Shane

The Thin Red Line

Saving Private Ryan............. I just like this movie, ok?

frau kaleun · 01-23-11, 07:18 PM

Okay, see, the problem with this thread is that every time somebody else posts I realize there's another movie I need to add to my "five." My mental list is running at about 20 already.

RickC Sniper · 01-23-11, 09:20 PM

I completely understand, frau. Ask me tomorrow and my list would most likely change.

Also, someone mentioned John Wayne. If I could only have one John Wayne movie it would be Big Jake.

In fact I do only have one John Wayne movie in my collection, and it is Big Jake!
