Well, seeing as how this is post #2001 of this game, maybe it’s best to let it die and then pick it up fresh later. Do I win? ---

I think that was a pretty horrid little film to end it on, although the post count was nice. I mean, not only had I never heard of it, when I did look it up I’d never even heard of anyone who was in it (save Mssr Pleasence, _naturellement_!) ---

Well, there’s not much of a story, and some things just plumb don’t make sense, but I thought it was hilarious (and I don’t usually find “dumb” movies funny). I must warn you, though, there’s a very good chance that you’ll be hearing the movie quoted over…and over…and over. ---

Yes, I’ve heard lots of young people saying this is their favorite movie ever. Interesting this thread has cropped up again, I was considering posting here in honor of **Twickster** ’s half century of service to the community.
