Hehe this is going to be long-winded, but needs must!
Everyone’s doing this film ‘meme’ (I don’t even know what a meme is) so I thought I’d join in. Rol and Tony have done it.
You have to use lists of films on Wikipedia to choose your fave films for every year since you were born… So here goes!
If you read it, you may be shocked at some of the classics I haven’t seen. What can I say – I grew up in a sports-loving family…
Actually I might split it up…
Here’s a start…
1974
Best:
The Man with the Golden Gun
I really ought to watch:
Chinatown

Be proud to have never seen Rocky.
Too scared to watch Jaws? Blimey!
Hehe
Jaws is great - but I'm sorry, it's terrifying!!!
I'm with Rol on this one. It's not even a real shark you know.
Picnic at Hanging Rock's a good replacement though, was tempted by that meself.
It's so horrible...
I'm struggling with 1985... Nothing appeals...
I agree Jaws is too scary, and I'll take it one step farther--I've never seen it, I never will, because if I did, I'd NEVER go in the ocean again (and I live in a seaside town, and don't consider it summer unless I've spent many hours at the beach)
As for Rocky Horror--you're doing a rainbow themed comic and you don't want to see it? Shame! Worth it just for Tim Curry's outrageously brilliant genderbending performance, as well as a high degree of geek horror camp.
