1. Is that something to be proud of?
That's like saying you've never eaten Italian food, or you've never had sex.

3. Its one of those things that leaves other people shocked
because its so unusual. There's no principle involved here, I just never got around to it.

Italian sex and food I like.

2. I like the Star Wars that came out in the70s and 80s.
I hated the "new" ones that came out recently.

4. I don't like ones that glorify war. But the oeuvre of war movies has
a lot of wonderful gems: Apocalypse Now; Platoon; Sinking the Bismark; Sargeant York; Full Metal Jacket; Bridge Over the River Kwai; Lawrence of Arabia...

5. if you've never seen Stalag 17 you're missing out, it's more of a pow
movie.

6. I watched American Soldiers tonight on DVD
It is NOT a glorification of the war, and really comes out against the Iraq war.

Pretty intense movie...

8. I don't deal well
with watching violence...




I saw Star Wars, the first one, only because Smokey and the Bandit was sold out at the theatre...:rofl:
