Controversial...You can't handle the truth.

[The Slim Reaper]

You can't handle the truth.

You don't want the truth because deep down in places you don't talk about at parties, you want me on this forum, you need me on this forum. We use words like warning, infraction, clique. We use these words as the backbone of a life spent defending something. You use them as a punchline. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the very freedom that I provide, and then questions the manner in which I provide it.

I've seen The Matrix, The Sixth Sense, Matilda (although not in years) Home Alone, Dances With Wolves (although it weren't my kind of Film tbh) Toy Story 1 & 2 (although like Matilda I haven't seen those Films in years) The Lion King, and The Terminator 2. So I've seen 9 Films out of your list.

I didn't include the Titanic as I didn't see it in full.

Those two girls in the still picture of the video are none other than Jane Horrocks from Ab Fab and Claire Skinner who went on to play Sue, the mother in Outnumbered.

Roy Cropper from Corrie is also in it.

80's please Alf.

Mannequin :love:Do we have any advance on the 80s?

I'll count Kate's choice as popular demand, if not.

[Kate!]

Do we have any advance on the 80s?

I'll count Kate's choice as popular demand, if not.

Yass. Come on people. Lets see Alfs 80s selection. Xx

[Tony Montana]

Nah, do the 70's, Alf. Best decade!

[Alf]

I've got 100 films chosen for the 80s, I just need to put them in some kind of order.

I'm amazed at some that haven't made it, ones that, as a kid, were favourites, but no longer do anything for me. Films like "The Karate Kid," "Adventures in babysitting" and "Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure." Even "Weird Science" which I must have seen over 50 times.

I'll do the 70s for you one day, Tony.
