  • 'Buncha kids on here....'

    I've often thought that myself from what I could ascertain from various members and pointers they may have inadvertently given away since joining, I was wondering sometimes if anyone was still out of diapers yet
    :-))

    No harm done by that, what I mean is, I was just surprised by some of the ages given here, I swear for two or three of the above here I had them down as 40+

    I was really surprised.

    Another youngster reporting for duty:

    Even the 90's had some good movies - next to the bond's of course. In no paticular order:

    Schindler's List:
    One of the most intriguing war movies I will ever see, period.

    The Fugitive:
    Very good action flick. I have a weak spot for both Harrison and Tommy Lee after this one

    Nightmare before christmas:
    one of the best animation movies, watched it year after year on ye olde VHS.

    Some other nominees:

    Jurassic Park
    In The Line Of Fire (Eastwood and JFK-murder-plot, basicly my ultimate movie)
    Sleepless in Seattle ( A relic from my romantic-movie-watching with girls, gimme a break here will ya ;-) )
