Oh, yeah that IS a good one. Matter of fact, it has been a while since I have watched that one. I have it in one of my DVD stacks.

Dumber
JJ,

I agree with some of your choices.

War: Twelve O'clock High
Dama: To Kill a Mocking Bird
Comedy: Dumb and Dumber
Biography: I'll go with your choice for now.
Musical: Grease
Disney: Flight of the Navigator
Sci-Fi:I like your choice but I have too many to choose from!
Action: Good movie but too many to choose from. Braveheart comes to mind.
James Bond 007: All with Sean Conery
Stop-motion animation: None, don't like it!
Monster movie: King Kong vs. Godzilla (orginal 60's)
I skipped a few categories because I have no knowledge of them?
John Wayne: All
Christmas: Almost all of them, but "It's a Wonderful Life" leads the bunch
Biblical: The Ten Commandments!
Tear Jerker: Always.
Crime drama: I'll get back to you on that one?
Adults only: Ditto.
Dumber?

Daniel
