So, I'll turn in my badge and gun I guess.

So, I'm looking at my DVD's thinking of watching Deep Impact another night, and I'm like, WTF?!? I don't own any of the Star Wars movies? Or the Indiana Jones Chronicles? What the hell was I thinking the last time I bought movies?

And now I'm thinking (and Supermom's already nodded semi-vigorously in agreement) that such a list might prove fodder for people seeking to gift me natally or yuletidally, or otherwisenheimerally. And so long as they try to remember my strong preference for WIDESCREEN format, so I don't miss 30% of the movie, everything'll be fine.

So, without further ado...

Star Wars 1-6, and Clone Wars (the animated) (Yeah, I know, I should just turn in my geek badge right now.)
Back to the Future, 1-3
Indiana Jones 1-3 (please spare me from the Crystal Skulls)
Young Frankenstein (My name, is FRANKENSCHTINE!!)
The Producers (the original, please, Gene Wilder and Zero Mostel are the ONLY producers I want to see)
and you know, the original Willy Wonka too...
But I got nothing against Johnny Depp, and I'd love a copy of Benny and Joon.
I have the first two Spiderman movies on my laptop, but DVD would be better.
It'd be real cool to have Iron Man and the newer (Ed Norton) Hulk in my collection too.
Disney's Hercules and Pixar's Schrek 2 & 3, Toy Story, and The Incredibles.
The one and only James Bond movie I own is Casino Royale (TYVM Kelkie!). Is that sick or what?
Addams Family and Addams FV.

And then there's TV shows...
Who wouldn't want Thundarr the Barbarian, The Herculoids, and Space Ghost, I ask you? And what about V, The Addams Family, Gilligan's Isle, The A-Team, Knight Rider, the Dukes of Hazzard, or any of the other cheesy crap I used to watch?

Anything off this list would be dandy if you're otherwise stumped. Of course, Magic cards always fit, or if you're really stumped, cash works nicely. Or Swedish Effing Nuts. Now, funny tee-shirts are always nice too. Or, you know, a compliant and well-trained wooman.

I couldn't put it better myself. DEEP IMPACT? Are you fucking kidding me? Few are the films that approach SUPERMAN IV level of sheer raw unbridled stupidity, but DEEP IMPACT is on the list.

Meh, it's better than watching the paint peel.

An afterthought, I know own the Back to the Future and Indiana Jones trilogies...
