@Noirchick1 Well, King Kong of course.
That was my great-grandfather's cousin up there (although I didn't know that until 2004, a year before she died).
@MovieEndorser Let's do a top 10 for this one:
1. Henry V
2. Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade
3. Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure
4. UHF
5. Field of Dreams
6. Back to the Future Part II
7. Batman
8. Honey, I Shrunk the Kids
9. Saturday's Warrior
10. The Little Mermaid
@MovieEndorser I think I'm going to have to go with The Sixth Sense for this one, although I was all in for The Phantom Menace at the time. I'm also going to give shout-outs to Joan of Arc and Galaxy Quest.
@horrormuseum But that wasn't even suggested before sometime around 1987-1990.
In 1978, most people still mainly used the word "gay" as a synonym for "happy." It just wasn't an issue most people even thought much about.
@ATRightMovies Stephen Colbert sometimes asks his guests if they only had one song they could listen to for the rest of their life, what would it be?
This would be my answer.
When John Williams first played the SUPERMAN march for Richard Donner, they said the music literally “says” the word “Superman,” which convinced everyone it was the definitive theme.
@alphafox Estimating a height of 30,000 feet (could be higher), you would have insufficient oxygen, and typical temperatures of around -70 F and wind speeds of 150 mph. You'd be dead in minutes, if you could hold on. Let go, try to stay near the ladder, and use your shirt to slide down.
@TheCinesthetic Not even finding a decent GIF here, but My Science Project (1985) with Dennis Hopper. Or Savannah Smiles (1982). Or maybe Condorman (1981) or The Devil and Max Devlin (1981). Maybe it's childhood bias; these seem to be from a particular era.
