No Highway in the Sky James Stewart - The Front Page Cary Grant - Hold That Ghost Abbot & Costello

Guess I'm way too old. To me older movies are pre-color, not pre-cellphone

During the velociraptors/dining room scene where the velociraptors leapt up into the ceiling, I bolted upright in my chair screaming like a little girl. That scared the stuffing out of me!

To Kill a Mockingbird and The Green Mile are favorites.

Not much for TV or Movies, and I can't stand horror flicks. So it's odd that my favorite old movie is Silence of The Lambs. That is such a cool movie! Anthony Hopkins and (omg mind fart - forgot the female star's name DOH) both deserved a dozen Oscars each for that one. She did The Brave One too, another great film.

I watch Dark Crystal after loving it the first time I watched it years ago, also Labyrinth, and just can't stand them now. It's strange cause I LOVED them both first time. I guess technology is so much better now that they seem almost hokey or something after all these years. David Bowie rolling those balls around still fascinate though. It wasn't really him doing it, I know, but it's mesmerizing all the same.

Oh great this will drive me nuts for days. I saw that movie, or maybe it was a book I read? Now I'm going to go crazy trying to remember what that was LOL. I'll report back if it occurs to me.

Nightmare on the 13th floor? Fits what you say but that's not the movie I'm thinking about.
There is also a 1988 "The 13th Floor" that is nothing like the more recent 1999 movie with the same name that is about a virtual reality. Whole movie is on YouTube at

I just watched the 1968 version of Romeo & Juliet (the one with Olivia Hussey). It's one of my favorites. The newer adaptation of R&J with Leonardo Dicaprio? Meh.
