Jackie Brown is the only QT movie I don't own on DVD, I can't find it anywhere...Dusk Till Dawn is the weakest of all QT movies, although having Robert Rodriguez (El Mariachi) probably didn't help...Harvey Kietels worst. Role. Ever.

Anywhere in Australia, perchance?
Want...it...must haves it...
Duck Soup, The Coconuts, A Night at the Opera, A Day at the Races, Animal Crackers, Monkey Business (all Marx Bros)...
My Cousin Vinny...hysterical! Hasn't been topped by any comedy since...
and it was better than any comedy made in the 70s.
It's a Wonderful Life....
The old Doris Day - Rock Hudson comedies from the 60s (Pillow Talk / Lover Come Back / Send Me No Flowers)...
"True Lies" was the best Arnold movie imo, although I liked the first two terminators (I think I liked T2 a little better than T1)... i haven't seen T3...
I liked "Total Recall" and "Eraser"...
"Meet Me in St Louis"
I like comedies, romantic comidies (but not just romance movies...gotta have the comedy in there), musicals (hasn't been a good musical made in almost 40 years... the mid 60s was the last period of good musicals, with the Sound of Music and My Fair Lady...
I also like Action and Adventures, although I don't get impressed by modern day special effects that are computer generated...I never go to movies just to see the special effects...
Loved "Ferris Bueller's Day Off" and "Beverly Hills Cop" in the 80s
There were a lot of great comedies made in the 40s and 50s (as well as the 30s) that you can only catch on Turner Classic Movies today... we've seen quite a few great comedies that we'd never heard of, and were only seeing for the fist time on TCM...
Some comedies that I liked while growing up in the 70s don't play as well today imo... e.g. Mel Brooks' stuff... Blazing Saddles had some great gags in it that are still funny, but a lot of it just looks stupid to me now... the toll-booth scene in the middle of the desert still cracks me up, and Alex Karras punching out that horse...that was an awesome stunt... today, they'd use a computer generated horse...
anyway, if anyone is interested in MY "Top 100 Movies of all time", just check out my web site...if I ever get one..
