12. I'm from Illinois
we used to vacation on Lake Michigan -- Warren dunes area. One year we took a long tour of the Great Lakes area (parents were school teachers). Not many people outside the Midwest realize what a beautiful area that is.

7. North Dallas Forty
gave a gritty picture of playing hurt. Nolte was believable as a football player down on his luck.

16. Woo hoo! I'm glad I'm not the only one!
I hated that movie. Uber-uber-uber cheesey.

Gawd!

A ton of people think it's great and the gratutious racial issues were profound.

Pfffft!

hated it

17. Rudy
I also liked Knute Rockne, All American, Varsity Blues, and Any Given Sunday. Titans was OK, but way too Disneyfied, and I didn't like Jerry Maguire much at all.
