Wrong Planet of the Apes — 5 years ago

I think it’s supposed to be the 1968 classic, not the Tim Burton crapfest remake.


I'll have to settle at 95% when I get there... — 5 years ago

… I just can’t bring myself to watch the WBros butcher V for Vendetta.


Not the right Thing! — 5 years ago

Wow! Hard to believe that viewers are ranking the 1982 Kurt Russell “Thing” over the eerie original, which is up there with “Invasion of the Body Snatchers” as one of the best cold war thrillers of all time. “Watch the Skies!”

Oh Well. At least “The Day The Earth Stood Still” is on there!
