What?  No comedy?    har!  spyder

[Midnight Rider]

The first Jaws was definitely one of those classic movies that scared the bejesus out of me...I also read the book before seeing the movie.  I wouldn't swim in the ocean without my feet touching sand for a few years after that one.  To this day, I get the willies...man's helplessness against the perfect natural predator.

Psycho was another classic...saw that one when I was about 12 or so...scared the chit out of me.  Almost all the Hitchcock flicks are movies I can watch over and over...the man was a genius at tapping into our basic emotions.

Q...Jeremiah Johnson is one of my all time favorite movies!!  The scenery alone is worth watching the movie...unforgettable!!

You didn't get a laugh outta Dr Strangelove?? But otherwise good point! I like Planes, Trains & Automobiles, Blues Brothers (the original), Blazing Saddles, Best in Show, Nutty Professor (Eddie Murphy version), Austin Powers, etc.

Jaws scared the crap out of me as well. I was 13 when I saw it, and we spent 6 weeks camping down at the ocean. After Jaws, there was a shark fishing craze, and one time that summer when waterskiing, the rope tangled, and I floated right by one of the local fishermen's shark tackles tethered on a buoy: a 10" fish hook with an ox heart on it. As I got close, I noticed what looked like a huge fin breaking the surface. Holy sh!t. It turned out to be a giant stingray with about an 8" wingspan. They pulled it up on the beach later and everyone gathered around to look. My old man said, "It was just a stingray - no need to be scared." Maybe, but look what happened to the Crocodile Hunter!!

And by the way, this is a self-confessed

Quint...yep, there's still a lot of overfishing for sharks going on...some are in fact, endangered.  The way I've always looked at that sort of thing, and the same applies to Grizzley Bears, etc, is that I am invading THEIR home, and I'm not the top of the food chain any longer, so I'm taking my chances.  Can't blame the animal for doing what it's supposed to do...we are the intruders.

and Dr. Strangelove was a trip!!  Dark comedy...

Fargo is another all time favorite of mine...
