I was also thinking about our agreement, about the OOT going onto the Blu-Ray format.

And if this Blu-Ray format DOES work out I want to transmit my OOT to the format THIS YEAR.

George Lucas: I'm sorry you fell in love with a half-completed film.

Yeah... that's what you said when the Special Editions came out. Looks like the OOT is going nowhere. I have to finish restoring the OOT.

...with a HUGE screen, a large audience to share the experience with, and outstanding picture and sound quality!

Oh... and no rude people talking, or cell phones going off.

Mine are:

1. The Godfather

2. Star Wars

3. Raiders of the Lost Ark

4. Jaws

5. Jurassic Park

6. Back to the Future

7. Aliens

8. Die Hard

9. The Shawshank Redemption

10. Pulp Fiction

"Luke... I am your father!"

"I am a Jedi... like my father before me!"

"It's not the years... It's the mileage!"

"When this baby hits 88 miles per hour... you're gonna see some sh(i)t!"

"Yippie kay yay, mother f(u)cker!"

"GAME OVER MAN... GAME OVER!"

"SAH UH CONNA!"

"You f(u)ck my wife?"

"THIS MAN HAS NO DICK!"

"HEY YOU GUYS!"

"The supercop story... was working..."

"I am reality..."

"YOU AH WUNN UH GLEE MUTHA FUCKA!"

"Riggs!"

"Could you describe the ruckus?"

"I THINK YOU'RE ALL F(U)CKED IN THE HEAD!"

"Bueller... Bueller..."

"DONT-- CALL ME JUNIOR!"

"E.T... phone home..."

"I'm gonna make him an offer he can't refuse."

"We're gonna need a bigger boat!"

"Use the force, Luke!"

"I love the smell of napalm in the morning!"

"Keep your friends close... but your enemies closer."

"ADRIAN! ADRIAN!"

"You talkin' to me?"

"I WANT THAT TELEVISION SET TURNED ON!"

"Do you feel lucky? Well... do ya? Punk!"

Post your top 10 of the 1990s.

Mine is something like:

Pulp Fiction

Schindler's List

Fargo

The Shawshank Redemption

The Silence of the Lambs

Unforgiven

Office Space

Face/Off

Men in Black

Dumb and Dumber

Post your top 10 films of the 1970s.

Mine is:

The Godfather

The Godfather Part II

Star Wars

One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest

Jaws

Rocky

Taxi Driver

The French Connection

Blazing Saddles

Monty Python and the Holy Grail

Raiders of the Lost Ark

Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade

The Goonies

Back to the Future

Platoon

Glory

The Empire Strikes Back

Return of the Jedi

Die Hard

Ghostbusters

Raiders of the Lost Ark and Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade are two stand-alone films, but with the same main character.

Just like The Godfather and The Godfather Part II are two stand-alone films with two entirely different purposes.

Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom has its moments at the beginning and the ending, but the midsection bogs the whole thing down.

Star Wars, The Empire Strikes Back, and Return of the Jedi make up the Star Wars films. Nothing else after 1983.

THE GODFATHER

*The Godfather Part III NEVER HAPPENED.

STAR WARS

*The Star Wars Prequels NEVER HAPPENED.

*The Star Wars Special Editions NEVER HAPPENED.

INDIANA JONES

*Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom NEVER HAPPENED.

*Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull NEVER HAPPENED.

ALIEN

*Alien 3 NEVER HAPPENED.

*Alien: Resurrection NEVER HAPPENED.

LETHAL WEAPON

*Lethal Weapon 3 NEVER HAPPENED.

*Lethal Weapon 4 NEVER HAPPENED.

SUPERMAN

*Superman 3 NEVER HAPPENED.

*Superman 4 NEVER HAPPENED.

------

The following films never had any sequels:

*BACK TO THE FUTURE
*JURASSIC PARK
*JAWS
*ROCKY
*BEVERLY HILLS COP

There. Apply that to the movie world and all of these film series are much better off, in my opinion.

Francis Ford Coppola and George Lucas both suffer from the same problem.

THEY DON'T KNOW HOW TO QUIT WHILE THEY ARE AHEAD!

They create a series of masterpieces... but they have to go back to that same series and modify them, and add to them, for the worse.

The Godfather and The Godfather Part II are two halves of one fully-functional organism.

The Godfather Part III was like diagnosing that organism with HIV or cancer.

Many are on-the-fence concerning Return of the Jedi. But it should have stopped there. No more.

The Godfather Part III.

Star Wars Prequels.

Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom.

Live Free or Die Hard.

Alien 3.

Just like Francis Ford Coppola dropped the ball with The Godfather Part III...

Lucas did the same, and his films suffered as a result.

Jar Jar Binks = Mary Corleone (or Joey Zasa).

I see these movies series as...

The Godfather, The Godfather Part II

Star Wars, The Empire Strikes Back, Return of the Jedi

Raiders of the Lost Ark, Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade

The Terminator, Terminator 2: Judgment Day

Alien, Aliens.

Then you have Back to the Future, Jaws, Rocky, Jurassic Park, and Predator which all have completely unnecessary sequels.
