Movies

It's pretty much my favorite movie of all time (I would kill for his car).. but The Great Escape comes dang close. I'm a big fan of Steve McQueen and old war movies in general (The Longest Day, A Bridge Too Far, Bridge Over the River Kwai, Lawrence of Arabia, stuff like that). Any reccomendations?
Well, I think Bullit is awesome as well, and that Mach Mustang is to die for. I recently watched the DVD edition of Bullit and it had some extra features that were interesting. You might want to re-view it on the DVD. I will reccomend The Bridges at Toko Ri if you like war movies. It's one of only a few good Korean War movies, and how topical is that!? Plus it has Banshee Jets!!! That alone makes it a winner!



Another sleeper is the British original Get Carter with Michael Caine. Ipcress File is also pretty cool.

Ok. I've violated the off the topic rule...sorry folks.
