Heheh I loved 20,000 leagues as well. The idea of a secret nuke powered submarine in the 19th century was just too cool.

The ending was even more kickass......just as good as Verne's ending....

Star Wars, and The Time Machine. :D
They say, "the tree of liberty must be watered with the blood of tyrants and patriots." I suppose it never occurred to them that they are the tyrants, not the patriots. Those weapons are not being used to fight some kind of tyranny; they are bringing them to an event where people are getting together to talk. -Mike Wong

But as far as board culture in general, I do think that young male overaggression is a contributing factor to the general atmosphere of hostility. It's not SOS and the Mess throwing hand grenades all over the forum- Red

20,000 League Under the Sea was my favorite movie before I started watching the Star Wars OT regularly. 20,000 Leagues is a great movie.

Spaceballs and the Blues Brothers, I wore out the tape in one summer.

If we assume a kid means pre-teens, then my favorite movies were the Star Wars Trilogy.

Well, I really didn't have a favorite movie per se until I was older.

But I'd have to say either Disney's Sleeping Beauty or *Batteries Not Included. If I really had to name one.

I was born a year after ANH came out. My earliest memories of Star Wars are related to watching ROTJ on a home video. Whenever I was sick as a child I would watch the OT over and over and over and over and over again.
