Ooh..
I forgot the Adverntures of Marty McFly and Indy. I guess Jurassic is a trilogy right now (although 4 is on the horizon) And yes, Clancy movies count. Except the last one.. trash.
And of course, i did get Lion King as well.. AWESOME!!
I agree…
The last clancy movie was trash. I just think Harrison Ford was a great Jack Ryan. Ben Affleck just doesn’t have the acting capability and screen presence of Ford.
Which Lion king did you get. They came out with the 2 disc set as well as a collectors set. We originally pre-ordered the 2 disc, but sold it to a neighbor so i could get the Collectors one. I have a pretty nice DVD collection, and i always like to get the Collectors editions when i can.
Some other movies i thought of last night that i should have tried to work into my list… Armagedon, Saving Private Ryan, Pearl Harbor, The Patriot, & on & on (Maybe i should have started a Best War movie catagory.. he he he) Cheers,
