  1. I’ve seen 9 of the 35 films on the chart. Favorites are – The Sting, The Apartment, Silver Streak, Galaxy of Terror (guilty pleasure) and Who’s Minding the Store.

    I’ve also seen South Pacific, Paint Your Wagon, Fast Times and Johnny Dangerously.

    I vaguely remember Walston as the martian with the antennae on his head back when I was very young. I also dimly remember a series with a talking horse. 60s comedy shows I remember more vividly are Bewitched and I Dream of Jeannie. Also Thunderbirds and Batman… aaah childhood memories… [wipes tear]

    Good stuff. Vote Up!
