    Willy Wonka. The original one. But I'd have to force children to watch it once a year for 10 years. Just so they know what pain I went through on xmas day.

    The lack of a Jurassic Park mention so far is shameful. Even the 2nd one. Not the last one though.

    I actually sat down with a full list of films available to me and chose to watch a film I'd been meaning to watch for years. It was Citizen Kane. Admitably, it was probably ground breaking in it's day, but I was hugely disappointed.

    It's one of those 'classics' that should probably stay on your bucket list

    How about Twelve Angry Men (the 1950's original version please!) if you're in the mood for edge of your seat stuff.

    OR

    A League Of Their Own - for something a bit easier on the old grey matter. God I love that film!.... 'THERE'S NO CRYING IN BASEBALL!!!!'
