| Highlander II and Prayer of the rollerboys are must read, I agree. |

| Trail of Billy Jack, without a doubt, is one of the most hilarious (and thurough) reviews I've read, and what got me started on this site. A definite good read! And Superfriends, as John Doe said, is another great set. |

I just took a look at the list, and I can't pick a favorite. But I think Pip's review of Tomcats deserves a mention just because of the way she handled the... um... CHOMP bit.

Ten Things I Hate About the Lost World (not really a review, I know...) actually gets talked about in other corners of the web, and it is what led me to discover Jabootu. It makes for a great reread from time to time.
Also- I totally agree about Jaws and Billy Jack- brilliant stuff! For bringing the funny I really enjoyed Flowers in the Attic even though the best line actually came from the movie itself.

And don't forget the sadly no longer updated B-Notes right here at Jabootu. Apostic makes for great rainy Saturday afternoon reading.

In addition to the Jaws series, I've always been fond of the Holcroft Covenant and Bluebeard reviews.

The recap of Agent Red in Nuggets is great ... (tired, so, so tired)

Ericb's recap of his previous post had potential to be quite entertaining but was perhaps too literal of a retelling, and no real new insight was gained. Still good for a smile though *g*
Coming soon-

Agreed.
Personal faves: the Captain Planet, Candy and Jaws series.

I like the "Video Cheese" articles, because they expose me to a wide variety of movies, from really bad to pretty good.
Reality is a crutch for people who can't face up to science fiction. |
