Hey! Since I\u2019ve turned a certain age today, I thought I\u2019d list my current top 27 films (liable to change and\/or switch around), with a couple of quotes from each (WordPress doesn’t let me do single spaces between entries, so… you’ll have to deal with looking at plenty of doubles). But if you\u2019re a fan of few words, then you can check out a list with no quotes on my letterbox account, a link to which is sitting at the end of the post.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Also, one rule: only one film from one franchise. No going over the limit. Apart from, uh…entries 1 and 2. Consistency, guys. ^_^<\/p>\n\n\n\n
