ummmm yeahhh, I'm going to have to consult the Bobs on that one mkay.

The best thing about that movie, is that most people do work with every single one of those characters, the case of the monday's lady, the guy who always is going to get fired, Bill Lumberg, even my favorite.....Milton. I think that is what makes that movie a cult classic.

How can y'all have forgotten FANTASIA! The greatest Disney film ever!

Bloodsport without a doubt is my favorite MA movie of all time.

Sean Claud Van Damn's first movie, he was innocent, young and naieve which makes for a good movie. It also had that 80s feel to it.... just a classic. (Filmed in 1981 Hong Kong)

A movie like that or a bruce lee movie should easily inspire anyone of any age to take up the martial arts and try your hardest.

I recently watched 28 Days Later, and if it weren't for that such suck *** weak ending it would have definitely made it onto my list of best horror movies. Too bad, it did have its gripping moments... :shrug:

I think they are re-releasing this weekend with a different ending shown at the end after the first. I haven't seen the new ending, but my guess is its a lot more depressing than the first one.
