So maybe we should finish it for him?? it would be a little fun.. just a little maybe.
We could really do this. If someone wants to join in the fun just say so, and we'll create an order for posting each flick and go from there. Also, we'll want it to go with the theme of the list up to this point. We're not posting movies we want on here, but movies we think he wanted to put on here. Plus we know the top ten.
Anyone else down with some tons of fun?

I'm in.. But I'll be on a 5 day vacation.. so I'll get back to this by thursday.. You can start without me though..
We need some Papa Norris films, some spaghetti westerns, some martial arts, Seagal, etc... this will be fun..
It's as if the story will turn from a first person narrative to a 3rd person..
We are officially hijacking this list..
