I saw Bullit, in The Grand Theater when it first came out. It was amazing to see all the heads in the place leaning into the curves and bobbing during the jumps. I wish we'd had smart phones back then. LOL

""You call that a success!!?"
Edgecombe:"Edward Delequax IS dead. Isn't he Percy?"

It'd be a disturbing one to watch, but it just may provoke folks into thinking.

@Catfish is right, the best role Costner ever did was in Silverado and there he was basically a snot nose punk.

Flipping channels and stopped on School of Rock. Realized it’s the third time I’ve watched it this week, so it has to go on the list...and so I’m bumping this thread.

A portion of Wonder Woman gets watched at least once a week.

Some amount of one of the Fast & Furious movies also gets watched each week.

I watched Bullitt with my 20 year old son when he was about 16. We are still trying to plead the speeding ticket he got a few months ago...parenting fail I guess...

Most of the movies listed in here are ones I can’t turn off either.

Here lately it’s been Hot Fuzz. @Chdamn's Wife made fun of me the other night in a very condescending little girl voice “you looooove this movie. You want to marry this movie”.

Between it and Shaun, I cant get enough! And there are many ties from movie to movie.
