Helen S if you want more love for Returns, here it is. I think that Batman Returns was one of the best written and best directed Batman movies ever. Sure I like Batman 89 better, but how can you miss with Nicholson playing the Joker, Keaton as Batman?
However when you take a look at Returns you see that it takes in my opinion two of the weaker characters of the Batman franchise, The Penquin, and Catwoman and casts two excelent actors who play them so well they make them interesting. Also they took simple plot and created a cool, unique, interesting movie. And made in my opinion a masterpeice of film. And to top it all off, here is the cudegraw, Christopher Walken is an added bonus.

Cool stuff You know, I always loved Returns but I wasn't that into the 89 Batman when I was a kid. It was only when I gotten old that I fell in love with it.

I personally think my list might get the award for most eclectic taste in movies. In no order of preference,
Duck Soup (1933) Better Off Dead (1985) Creature from the Black Lagoon (1954) King Kong (1933) Gremlins (1984) A Day at the Races (1937) Planes, Trains, and Automobiles (1987) Monty Python and the Holy Grail (1975) The Thing (1982) Gojira/Godzilla, King of the Monsters (1954/1956)
Honorable Mentions:
All Quiet on the Western Front (1930)
The Buddy Holly Story (1978)
North by Northwest (1959)
Halloween (1978)
The Abominable Dr. Phibes (1971)
Creepshow (1982)
How's that for diversity?
As you can see, I prefer movies made from 1990 and before. Although there have been some good and even a few great movies made since then (i.e. Napoleon Dynamite, Where the Wild Things Are, the British version of Death at a Funeral, etc.), they are few and far between.

Valley's ignoring me
Oliver Cromwell issued a proclamation in 1651 which is still legally binding:
"Anee manne womanne or childe who is founde to have boild' their fave all-time movee liste downe to tenne, shalle hereby be guiltee of heresy and be denogginizede and impaled on a rustee spyke"
That law applied to all the English speaking world. Watch your backs people.
