Here's mine:
1. Blondie's Greatest Video Hits
Not videos, per se, this was in the era before music videos. They are mostly videotaped clips from TV shows and some are quite grainy and a couple are a little blurry. I'm hooked. Debbie Harry looked GOOOOOOOOOOOD in the '70's and '80's. I WANT MORE.
I wish it could be 1981 again.
2. Alison Krauss and Union Station LIVE
What?! I'm a rock and roller! I HATE country! I can't like bluegrass! Am I nuts? Have I gone off the deep end? I grew up on Led Zeppelin, the Rolling Stones, the Ramones, Blondie, the Beatles, Rush, INXS, and many others.
What is my problem? Why is this DVD one of my favorites right now? Why did I go out and buy an Alison Krauss CD after I bought this?
Don't buy this DVD: you will be hooked! You will want to stay home from your job and watch it!
3. Broken Arrow (the one with John Travolta)
Okay, it's a run-of-the-mill bad-guys-steal-nuclear-weapons movie, but it rocks from start to finish.
4. Blackhawk Down
Somebody please count the number of AK's in this movie and report back to us!
5. Ronin
The best spy movie I've ever seen. I've never been a spy, but the realism of this movie puts James Bond to shame!
6. Terminator 3
The best one of the series, and it rocks from start to finish.
7. Red Dawn
It seems a little unrealistic now that those kids could have survived all that time by themselves (before the Air Force pilot shows up). This movie inspired the militia movement all by itself (laugh out loud).
8. Smokey and the Bandit
Not exactly "funny" as comedies go, but a fun movie nevertheless.
9. Uncommon Valor
The 1980's had half a dozen movies about guys going back to Vietnam to rescue POW's years after the war. Even Rambo got in on the act. But this one was the first (I think) and definitely the best and most realistic. Those middle-aged guys train HARD before showtime!
10. The War of the Worlds
This is the 1950's one with Gene Barry. Those snake-necked Martian war machines STILL frighten more than most modern movie alien spaceships. I never get tired of seeing those death rays disintegrate everything in their path. This is probably the ONE weapon I'd rather have than an AK!
There's my list, what's yours?
