For me, it would have to be The Wild Bunch. One of the best westerns made.

I'd love to see EoE on the big screen, Hellsing ultimate would be tight to just for all the hi-def action other than that, Silence of the Lambs and A River Runs Through It would both be cool. I would also want to see the greatest Disney movie ever made, The Great Mouse Detective, get it's just deserts with a new theatrical showing and remastered dvd. Those lion king loving editors need to represent for the old school.

Was that something Nietzsche wrote about?
Awesomely Shitty
-"That purace has more badassu maddafaakas zan supermax spaceland."
-On EMF, as a thread becomes longer, the likelihood that fem-Kaworu will be mentioned increases exponentially.
-the only English language novel actually being developed in parallel to its Japanese version involving a pan-human Soviet in a galactic struggle to survive and to export the communist utopia/revolution to all the down trodden alien class and race- one of the premise being that Khrushchev remains and has abandoned Lysenko stupidity
