Woo-hoo! You got Crocodile Dundee on your list... I thought I was the only one who had any fondness for this movie.

The rest of your list looks good too. A nice mix of old and new. http://www.joblo.com/ubb/smile.gif

Since there are half a dozen threads with a similar topic (TOP 100 MOVIES) in this forum at the same time, we've decided to close them all in the hopes of letting other list topics through. We've also created ONE BIG THREAD for everyone to add their TOP 100 lists respectively. Thanks for understanding, thanks for not taking this personally and now feel free to cut & paste your TOP 100 MOVIE LIST into this new thread: http://www.joblo.com/ubb/Forum7/HTML/003254.html
