I was a Lennon junkie in college. But, overall, I'd say my fave solo Beatle is Stuart Sutcliffe. Just kidding.

Actually, I really dig George Harrison's solo work.

I love the Beatles and have several of their albums at home on vinyl. I find vinyl to be the only real way to listen to them. I only have Past Masters, vol. 2 on CD. Vinyl I have Abbey Road (my personal fave), Meet the Beatles, the blue (1967-70) and red (1962-66) hits albums, and Let it Be.

It wouldn't surprise me if it were real, to be honest. I've heard much worse happen on air that are real. And lawsuits have been filed against radio stations in the states for such stunts.

I enjoyed Titanic the first couple of times I saw it. But I have had absolutely no desire to see it since that time. It's one of those good one-time-only flicks.

Have never had the desire to see The Sound of Music. Sorry Sweyland. I'm sure I will sometime, just not a priority.

And, yes, inflation is of course a huge factor in this list. Gone With The Wind would still be the #1 flick of all time if inflation didn't exist. Considering there are still theaters throughout the south that play that movie year round (I mean that literally) and the fact that tickets to see GWTW were only a dime when it first came out... well, you do the math.

Can't make this site cost any more than it already does. And who the heck would pay for it anyway?

Yeah, okay, I can give you that. It's unfortunate, but true.

I've been saying that for a while just in the form of the AFI taking back their top 100 film designation for Star Wars. So now we have added ammunition.

I dunno that I would call it unfortunate either although I do find it to be complete BS. This sort of censorship should not exist. Period. End of quote.

Batman Begins... see the Batman thread in off topic. It is the next movie.

And yes, Damn Janet. This threat of censorship has existed in the U.S. for decades. They (the FCC) have been getting either progressively better about it or more lazy (view it however you like) as time has gone on. But it was just a matter of time before something set the FCC off again and forced them into the role of Free Speech Nazis. Every performer in the U.S. knows this. So I blame her for setting off their little Obscenity Detectors.

Tahoe's not part of our chain. Sorry. Play again.

The Great Lakes are Huron, Ontario, Michigan, Erie, and Superior. I was taught how to remember them using the word HOMES as a memory hook/acronym. I live 45 minutes from Lake Michigan.

I think I was attempting to collect them all before reading and when I couldn't find the one, I just kinda gave up and didn't read any of them. Damn completist that I am.

Okay people, this thread is dedicated to the top 100 grossing films of all time (U.S. domestic figures only, sorry). Bear in mind that the page attached to this link is updated weekly so, if you mention a film's ranking, it can easily change...

Top 100 Grossing Films in U.S.

My question is, how many of these have you seen? Which ones have you not seen?

I can say I've seen all but four of them...

The Passion of the Christ (currently listed as #46, but quickly moving up the chart)
Home Alone 2: Lost in New York (now #79)
The Waterboy (#97)
The Sound of Music (#99)

Is that just sad or what?

I could go to Best Buy and grab two extra copies since they're free and the staff are dying to get rid of them. Alas, no one has asked me nicely...
