Dangermouse Flag Hastings 03 Jun 03 11.00am Send a Private Message to Dangermouse Add Dangermouse as a friend

Impossible to pick 5

The Wizard of Oz by a mile.

After that in no particular order;

300 Spartans

Life of Brian

Usual Suspects

Ferris Beullers day off

Blazing Saddles/The Producers/Young Frankenstein

Will probably change tomorrow. Must get to see Shawshank and i agree with Jimbo The Others was a good spooky film for a 12.

 

That's Life
And as funny as it may seem
Some people get their kicks stompin' on a Dream.
KEEP THE FAITH!!!!!
