ddavid 149 Posted August 11, 2008 Report Share Posted August 11, 2008 For me it's got to be 'The Dam Busters' - I saw it at the Leicester Square Odeon with my Mum and Dad back in the ****ies (no, not forties, you young whipper-snappers!). The place was as quiet as a cathedral until that point in the film where they're practicing getting down to fifty feet over Ladybower, and someone over the intercom says "This is bl**dy dangerous". The whole cinema errupted with roars of laughter - remember, you weren't supposed to swear in them days! Mind you, I'm with John on 'No Highway in the Sky' - James Stewart's drawl and Marlene Dietrich's legs - wow! A very close second, eh? Cheers - Dai. :mrhappy: Link to post Share on other sites

colwah 0 Posted September 4, 2008 Report Share Posted September 4, 2008 Hello All What a cool idea Mutley!! My fav has to be The Dam Busters but Top Gun is a very very very close second!! Link to post Share on other sites
MartinW 0 Posted September 4, 2008 Report Share Posted September 4, 2008 So many to choose from. As a science fiction fan I suppose I would have to say Independence day, implausible in places but good fun. Don't forget Firefox also lads. When I first saw it on the cinema it bored me but having watched it a few times on TV, it has grown on me. Flight of the Intruder I watched years ago, did enjoy it though.
