I'm participating in this too (with the knowledge that I most likely will not finish, but hey...a girl can try). You've got some good movies. I've seen Coming to America at least 10 times, and it still makes me giggle. I watched City of God last film challenge (she had one previously), and I thought it was fantastic!!!
ReplyDeleteHow sad it is that I haven't seen most of these movies. Clearly, I live under a rock. I have heard about them but have never seen them. Sad, right?
ReplyDeleteGreat picks! I don't think I'll get through my list either...but it will be fun trying. :-)
ReplyDeleteBreakfast at Tiffany's is one of my favorites. I liked Prefontaine but I liked the Without Limits version better. So many good movies to watch.
ReplyDeletehey! thanks for the shout out. so happy you're playing along. make sure you join the facebook group. :]
ReplyDeleteI love Butch Cassidy & the Sundance Kid! Batman and Days of Thunder are good ones, too!!
ReplyDeleteComing to America is a classic!!! Lots of great movies on your list! Enjoy :)
ReplyDeleteGreat choices! You have a few on here that I've never seen before. Reading through all these posts is making me add a lot more to my to-watch list. Haha! Fun fact: I was an extra in the movie Prefontaine!
