Below the cut is Entertainment Weekly's list of the top movies of the last 25 years. Go through their list and BOLD the ones you have seen and underline the ones you own on video or DVD.
Put an asterisk after the movie title* if you really liked it.
Cross it out if you saw a film and really didn't like it.


Besides watching TV a lot more than movies, and rarely going to the theatre, I have a very good idea of what films I will or won't like before I see them. I do NOT like Mafia/gang/mob films and generally don't like comedies or anything with Tom Cruise in it. I also tend to wait until they're on broadcast TV (or deep discount sale) to watch them.
