Well there goes a $100

Movies and I have a special relationship. I love them, and they make me spend too much money.  I was on Thinkgeek.com the other day and I stumbled upon these treasures. Which ones are your favorites?




Back to the Future!
People in the film industry say this film's script is perfect, in fact it is studied by film students at USC and UCLA.

Batman!

Billions of dollars in merchandise sold. Batman is iconic. Plus, there are few franchises that have a better arch villain than the Joker. Perhaps Darth Vader? What's your thoughts?

Bill Murray in 3 movies!

Zombieland, Kingpin & Life Aquatic. Bill's hair in Kingpin was spectacular. He just let loose in that movie and it was so much fun.

Ghostbusters!

The Stay Puft Marshmallow Man as your climactic nemesis... YES PLEASE! 

"Human sacrifice, dogs and cats living together... mass hysteria!"

Thriller with Michael Jackson!

I know this dates me, but I can remember when MTV was cool and nothing was cooler than Michael Jackson's Thriller video. It was just under 14 minutes and filmed by John Landis who is the director of such movies as American Werewolf in London, Three Amigos and Coming to America.

Napoleon Dynamite!
Moon Boots and Ringer tees became cool again... sort of. What a peculiar movie, but somehow worked itself into the psyche of America. There have been lovable losers before, but none that had Napoleon's dance moves. I love Napoleon Dynamite and it's sequel Nacho Libre...

Sherlock!

Talk about sending an actor into the stratosphere. Sherlock launched Benedict Cumberbatch into stardom with his brilliant portrayal of Sherlock Holmes in our modern era. One of my favorite tv shows of all time.

SPINAL TAP!

"Why don't you just make ten louder and make ten be the top number and make that a little louder?
…These go to eleven." I have to be honest these three guys might be my front-runners for my first purchase of these vinyl dolls. I loved Spinal Tap... I think I might like quoting it even more than watching it. It has become a part of me.

TOM HANKS!

I actually think in order for this to work you need all three of Tom Hanks characters next to each other. I loved all three of these movies, Catch me if you can, Forrest Gump and Castaway... The Castaway doll (Action figure) is actually my favorite of the three.

Young Frankenstein!

In my top ten of funniest movies of all time. Gene Wilder and Cloris Leachman were fantastic! The whole cast was so much fun. Gene actually wrote the script and enlisted his good friend and "discoverer" Mel Brooks to direct. They created comedy gold. 

"You know, I'm a rather brilliant surgeon. Perhaps I can help you with that hump."

"What hump?"

I would eventually like to get all of these, but which ones are your favorites?
