This entry is part 6 of 10 in the series Top 5 Lists

In my world, no form of entertainment is better than a good movie in surround sound and in widescreen. I actually prefer to watch movies at home, but it doesn’t hurt to see a big-budget summer blockbuster at the theater with “movie buddies”. I love a whole lot of movies, but there’s a select few that I highly regard as “awesome cinematic movie films”. Yeah, I know. Stupid term. I hate it when I’m just padding an introduction paragraph.

#5: Meet the Parents - I love De Niro comedies. Not that there’s a lot of them, but I love them nonetheless. And the best of the bunch is this one with Ben Stiller. I mean, come on. Any movie with a lead character named “Gaylord Focker” should be in everybody’s “funniest movies” list. I can watch this a gajabillion times, and I won’t get tired of the ridiculous yet scary scenes. I say “scary” since they play with my fear of meeting my future wife’s parents and relatives.

#4: The Girl Next Door - OK I admit I can be a sucker for good romantic comedies sometimes, but this one’s my favorite. The chick’s hot. The story brings nostalgic episodes. Nice soundtrack. And did I mention the chick’s hot? Yeah, I’m a huge Elisha Cuthbert fan. If I’ll be given a chance, I’ll bring her to one of those San Diego hotels and… okaaaay. I stop now.

November 22, 1987. Chicago, Illinois. Viewers of Dan Roan, the sports reporter of WGN-TV News Network at the time, were quietly watching Mr. Roan’s rundown of the day’s football highlights. The TV screen started to twitch. It distorted. And suddenly, a dude with a grinning face mask of Max Headroom greeted the viewers, much like what V from V for Vendetta did. But there was no audio. It lasted for only a few seconds. Approximately two hours later, the same thing happened with the WTTW network while they were broadcasting the Doctor Who episode “Horror of Fang Rock”. This time, there was audio. Most of the words the masked dude said was unintelligible. Towards the end of the mystifying pirate broadcast, an unknown female spanked him in the ass with a flyswatter. Hardcore. It freaked the hell out of everybody.
