Star Wars I’ll enter this, then look to see if **swampbear** has chimed in yet. That way I’ll find out how far off I am. ---

Actually, to fix it I just quote the post, and correct the format there. It’s still a pain, though. ---

Apocalypse Now was going to be my answer to number 8 but then I didn’t feel like searching out how to spell it. Platoon-- much easier to spell. ---

Oddly, apocalypse in in the small category of “words I think I can’t spell but actually can”. I always look it up and then find I’ve spelled it correctly. The category of “words I know I can’t spell” is much larger.
