Fast planes are a good thing. I still miss the smell of JP-5 in the morning, walking out to the flight line. The sex, meh. I was never convinced by Tom Cruise and whatserface. It's very much a watch from the hall moment in the movie.

The only one of those movies I've never seen is the Lloyd Dobler one. I had to look the character up in Imdb to figure out what everyone was talking about. It's John Cusack and that's enough for me. Although, my favorite movie with him in it is Grosse Point Blank.

I get to play my least favorite game "What's the Smell and Where's It Coming From." *sigh*

It's upstairs and if the cat has pissed in the baby's room, a wee, white head will roll.

Top Gun = shirtless volleyball and fast planes. Yum.

I remember Saturday Night Fever and Little Darlings as being the R rates movies I snuck into.

Top Gun: Tom Cruise before he got weird, omgValKilmer, planes, the volleyball sequence, and (in my later years) the HoYay.

If Top Gun is wrong, I don't want to be right.

Little Darlings -- oh wow, that was a big one. I think I convinced my mom to take me. Yikes.

My parents also took me and my little brother to Saturday Night Fever, thinking, I guess, it was just a movie about dancing. There was a lot of squirming, and an uncomfortable moment when the one girl holds out the condoms and Charlie stage-whispered, "Look at all that candy!"

I had an unholy love for Foxes, too, although I didn't see it when it first came out. I think I was a bit too young at the time.

If your pastor preached against the HoYay, then he was perceptive ahead of his time.

My mother's side of the family definitely preached against it, but nsm from the pulpit. That's a thing about Quakers.

Movies were so integral to my existence, nay, to my very survival as a teenager, that I can't imagine going through those years without them. I doubt I will ever know how much of my psyche is based on Xanadu, Labyrinth, Pretty in Pink, Better Off Dead, etc.

And honestly, there was nothing else to do in my town, so I saw every movie that came out between 1980-1987. Sometimes more than once.

Labyrinth! How did I miss that out?

::smacks forehead::

...Xanadu is one of the most jaw-dropping things I've ever seen. Watched it last year for the first time ever. Gosh. Just - gosh.

Heeee. I found some Chuck Norris icons on lj. I can't pick a favorite - they are all too good.

Labyrinth

Am now earwormed.

You remind me of the babe
what babe?
The babe with the power
What power?
The power of voo-doo
Who do?
You do.
Do what?
Remind me of the babe.

I sang it all the way through the maze scene in HPGoF the movie.

Note to self: The David Bowie love is strong in Bitches. Mere mention of the song from Labyrinth and everyone passes out, unable to post, because of the love and longing for this great man in music. While everyone is passed out on the floor, I shall run off with him, spike his hair, put him in a skirt, and share metallic green eyeliner with him. MINE MINE MINE!!!
