5. Cool ...
I'm a purist and with the Cold War raging and it being pulled after the Kennedy assassination, the original has more bite.

8. Its my number one.



Angela Lansbury's performance was amazing.

9. I swear Bush is the Manchurian Candidate
I mean, when you first met Shaw during Desert Storm, he was a brain dead dude who didn't know shit from his butt. Had Clinton never been elected president, I think Bush would have been the same type of person.

10. Manchurian Global = Halliburton , Bechtel - all those companies
Yes but they could have at least given Bush a " smart " chip or something :shrug:
