          Aha. Fixed.

          I tried doing the past 20 years, but we can only do 10 choices max. I could change that, but 10 is fine.

              Lots of good choices there. But I have to go with American Beauty. Brilliant film.

                I chose Return of The King.

                On the list for most undeserving is a tie between Crash and Shakespeare in Love.

                  Crash, easy. Return of the King would be my 2nd.

                    A Beautiful Mind.

                    Stories about crazy university professors seem to ring so true.





                    Actually, I really liked it as well.

                    For all this His anger is not turned away, but His hand is stretched out still.

                    Not long ago an obituary appeared in the Salt Lake Tribune that said the recently departed had "died doing what he enjoyed most—watching BYU lose."

                      I've seen all but Shakespeare in Love. Among the others my favorites were The Departed and NCFOM. It's tough picking between the two, but I went with The Departed.
                      So Russell...what do you love about music? To begin with, everything.

                        I still need to see The Departed. I own it and haven't even watched it yet.

                          Rated R. speaks volumes that you own it.

                            Rocky, there's no way you even saw Shakespeare In Love.
