Skyline was horrible! And not in a so bad, it's good way either.
And I love the convos you have with your hubby, Connie! My boyfriend and I often discuss what we'd do if a zombie apocalypse hits.
I like money better than people. People can so rarely be exchanged for goods and/or services!

Buffista Movies 7: Brides for 7 Samurai
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

I'd probably at least attempt the Moonstruck "Snap out of it!" slap, but if someone insisted on shrieking and otherwise reducing everybody's chances of survival I'd quickly start thinking of the most opportune way to jettison them.

Labyrinth behind Dark Crystal?! Will Jilli let that stand? Legend behind Willow? Where's Princess Bride? List Fail.

Labyrinth behind Dark Crystal?!
Labyrinth behind KRULL?! Willow at #1?! No, I do not agree with that list whatsoever.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
Right?
Willow should definitely not be #1.

And while I'd say The Adventures of Baron Munchausen deserves a high place on the list quality-wise, I've never gotten the impression that it was a big cult touchstone like Time Bandits or Labyrinth.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Lee Pace is coming up in the world. Apparently he'll be playing Thranduil in The Hobbit.
