A friend and I were just talking about the movie the other day

Ohhh I forgot about Robocop and Short Circuit. And I liked Cocoon and Batteries Not Included, too.

Who can really forget A Christmas Story..I own it on both DVD and VHS and I still always watch the marathons on TNT during Christmas.......and I hate Christmas...but I love that movie...

a bit of trivia, Bob Clark who directed "A Christmas Story" also directed "Porky's" and the horror classic "Black Christams" (which was also the name of the last band I played in)
