  2. Wow! Loved this. I’m not gonna try to answer, but I do have some comments on your answers.
    1) Jedi is a good first film to remember. Obviously it hasn’t held up as well as the first two, but it remains the greatest movie-going experience of my life.
    6) I am SO with you on Jodie Foster. I’d ***** the ********* for Jodie Foster!
    14) Star Trek II is awesome. The ear things freaked me out when I saw it as a kid.
    16) I actually think Bale is the best Batman and Ledger the best Joker, BUT I think 1989’s Batman (or possibly your choice of Batman Returns) as the best. One thing which has prevented me from really loving the recent films (still haven’t seen 3) is the “bigness” of it all. Batman to me is subtle.
    18) Word my brother. “Meeting you, with a view to a kill….” 2nd Place is a tie for me between “For Your Eyes Only,’ and ‘Live and Let Die,’ (even if Wings did steal that song from G&R)

    It was fun reading your list.I don’t watch a lot of movies these days. It seems like that should be a bad thing, but I don’t miss them, strangely.

    • KRULL Is The Flick That Has Always Made Me The Happiest When Watching It.
      It Did That When I Was A Kid.
      It Did That When I Was A Teen.
      It Does That Even Today.
      To Me, That’s What Makes A Flick Your Favorite.
      If You Can Enjoy It, Regardless Of Anything Else, It Could Just Be Your Favorite.
      For Me, The Only Flick That’s Ever Been Able To Do That Is KRULL hahaha
      So Yeah…
      …It’s My Fave-Fave Of All-Time! 😉
      That Might Make Me A Horrid Geeky Freaky Thang, But It’s The Truth hehehehe
