    Agreed, I've been struggling to vote in a bunch of the groups so far, but this one I could vote for most of these.

    Stacked is an understatement. So sad to see Harold and Maude and The Man Who Would be King potentially exiting so early.

    The Poseidon Adventure and High Plains Drifter were very influential to me as a child.
    All that's left of what we were is what we have become.

    I hate, hate, hate to lose both of these movies. I really hope the people check them both out. They are both soooo good.
