    Shamefully, that's one of my blindspots. I know it's a popular film, even though critically it failed (44% on Rotten Tomatoes), I just never had a chance to see it for some reason all these years. Looks like it's not streaming anywhere either, otherwise I'd love to catch up.
    I think you would enjoy it. It's a grown up version of The Breakfast Club and Pretty in Pink type movies. It also has A Beautiful Girls feel to it. Hopefully you'll be able to find it somewhere to rent.
    I'll try. Also, I had a feeling you'd second Jimmy Dean, Heather
    I love Jimmy Dean and I love Altman I'm glad you nominated it because I haven't thought of that movie in forever.
    Only the gentle are ever really strong.

    I was going to second it too. I met Mark Patton a few years back and he was an absolute delight.

    Nomination #12 - No Holds Barred (1989)
    Directed by Thomas J. Wright
    Spoiler:
    I kinda want to second this because I was a huge fan of WWF when I was a kid and remember going wild for this movie when it came out. But I just don't think it will do well in here. I'm having the same feeling about the movie The Wizard.

    Some movies just don't age well, even though I thought they were the greatest thing ever 30 years ago.

    You just seconded Lucas, and no one has seconded anything else since. So we'll need to wait for two other secondings.
