I have complex memories of Top Gun.

I once had a housemate, who thought that topgun was the best movie ever.
She also thought that the love scene in topgun was the template for any ummm intimate relations she had in her own life.

Suffice it to say, she was a complete loon.

I also recall my father yelling at me to get out of the room, because I couldn't help but laugh hysterically in the scene where Goose died.

still makes me choke every time I watch it, I even made a DJ intro once with loads of quotes sampled from the movie over the Danger Zone song. Went down well.

did anyone say wildstyle? changed my life that one.

yes to breakfast club and heathers (best one liners ever)
loved all the national lampoons too, and often scenes from my life remind me of those movies.

Post by **JAMESSSS** » Mon Jun 22, 2009 5:04 pm

Is breakfast club the one where they all go to detention and there is bad guy and the uppity chick doesn't like him but then she does by the end because he is actually a nice bloke after all and they smoked some weed too?
