11. I'm glad we agree. Somehow, I'm blanking as to more
I've seen so many movies in the past 5 years and only managaed to put three so far on my list. How sad am I?

What is troubling me is that I can't remember if some movies were older than 5 years ago like 'Good Will Hunting and Boogie Nights. I think they were 97 or 98.

4. We watched "Beckham" in my English class a couple of weeks ago
We were studying cultures.
Great movie. Very well written. I'll probably buy it and share it with friends.

No list sorry.

18. Did you ever see the uncut version?
It has a great extended scene with Lest Bangs and a great scene where they have you put on Stairway to Heaven and play along with the movie (Led Zeppelin wouldn't let them use the song so Crowe has you sync your LP along with the movie). It's great.
