July 11, 20232 yr There was a time in 91/92 when T2, Basic Instinct, and Waynes World were all playing at the theater at the mall. Those were some fun days at the mall in junior high. Smoke come cigarettes, go to Spencers, get a ticket to Waynes World and spend all day sneaking between those movies; especially in time to see some Sharon beaver.
July 11, 20232 yr Look, all I know is that 1974 had both Blazing Saddles and Young Frankenstein, so it leaps pretty near the top of the list for me. Oh, there were a couple other flicks in there as well- Godfather Part 2, Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Chinatown, Death Wish, The Longest Yard, Towering Inferno, The Great Gatsby, Murder on the Orient Express, Foxy Brown, Emmanuelle, Uptown Saturday Night 10 minutes ago, Elvis said: There was a time in 91/92 when T2, Basic Instinct, and Waynes World were all playing at the theater at the mall.

Movies released in 1939 are: The Wizard of Oz Gone with the Wind Stagecoach Mr. Smith Goes to Washington Jamaica Inn The Hunchback of Notre Dame Of Mice and Men The Hounds of the Baskervilles Dark Victory Gunga Din Son of Frankenstein Young Mr. Lincoln The Four Feathers Goodbye Mr. Chips Only Angels Have Wings Dodge City Gunga Din The Little Princess Destry Rides Again Another Thin Man The Roaring Twenties The Four Feathers Union Pacific Drums Along the Mohawk The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes Gulliver's Travels Confessions of a Nazi Spy It's a Wonderful World The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn They Made Me a Criminal Each Dawn I Die Allegheny Uprising King of the Underworld Stanley and Livinsgstone I am sure that I am missing some. Just a few on my list. I can't put up with mid Atlantic accent. It seemed weird and off to me as a kid but these days it makes almost all of those movies unwatchable. I just can't enjoy it when the vocal acting is so horrendous.
