Think what you want.
I just quoted what she said on the show.
Sorry that you have to try and pigeon hole me and say "Im less of a man" because I quoted someone off of a TV show.
That shows at most a lack of maturity, not a lack of manhood. Quoting Mellisa Ethridge is just not right if you're a guy.

Coming from the guy that tried to pigeonhole me into a phobe there is an errant hypocracy. And it makes you less of a man because you quoted Mellissa ing Ethridge and she Mellissa ing Ethridge.
I don't think it makes T Park less of a man, just a man with poor taste in music.
wtf.
She was on the show, giving her opinion of the goddamn movies.
I don't listen to her freakin music.
Where did this come from
When you quote someone as part of your defense it implies that you like them.
...no, it does not...actually. and as for T Park, i know you guys are just having fun with him. but if i was T Park and was getting irritated....i would not even respond to this...moronic...assertation.
...take all this energy and put it into getting rid of the baboons on ticket 760 (local guys)...thats of much higher importance.
I’m glad your need to appear clever has blinded you to sarcasm. Next time I’ll type it in blue italics.
And I still maintain bad taste in music, even if Melissa Ethridge doesn't enter the equation
Oh, Tpark, you're funny.
I just quoted what she said on the show, and I agreed with it.When you quote someone as part of your defense it implies that you like them.
Thank you JohnGates, Im not irritated, im used to it.
Being the forum whipping boy has its perks too.
1 IT'S A WONDERFUL LIFE 1946 (Agree)
2 TO KILL A MOCKINGBIRD 1962 (Strongly agree)
3 SCHINDLER'S LIST 1993 (Disagree. But it is one of my favorite films)
4 ROCKY 1976 (Strongly agree)
5 MR. SMITH GOES TO WASHINGTON 1939 (Strongly agree)
6 E.T. THE EXTRA-TERRESTRIAL 1982 (Strongly disagree)
7 THE GRAPES OF WRATH 1940 (I can't believe I still haven't watched it. Shame on me.)
8 BREAKING AWAY 1979 (Strongly agree)
9 MIRACLE ON 34TH STREET 1947 (Strongly agree)
10 SAVING PRIVATE RYAN 1998 (Disagree. Great opening scene but I think the Longest Day and Tora, Tora, Tora are better war films. Born on the 4th of July and Heaven and Earth are much more inspiring films than Saving Private Ryan, imo)
Of those top 10 I've only seen about 4 of the movies. I recorded that AFI show last night because I really do want to see all these movies to see what I've been missing. I haven't even seen Miracle On 34th Street! I need to get with it.
Number 3 is high, but Schindlers list was still too low. I dont know it it beats It's a wonderful life, but I have to place it well above To kill a Mockingbird. The scene at the end where Oscar breaks down realizing that he could have saved one more life is pretty powerful stuff.
she was in the first one too. the second one was in okinawa. lilies of the field is way too far back in the rankings. sidney poitier is the man.
Maybe I misunderstand the meaning of "inspirational"... I don't find movies like "Bridge on the River Kwai" (14) and "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" (17) to be inspiring. Moving, sure... but not exactly uplifting.
Oh and "12 Angry Men" only being at 42 is ridiculous. As is "Hotel Rwanda" at 90.
Also, flame if you like, but I'd put "A League of Their Own" (not on list) in the top 20 at LEAST.
Hotel Rwanda and Philadelphia were inspirational.
yeah the inspiring part is very vague. inspiring you to do what?
Can you believe that goober left us off the list?
damn that movie was funny cc.
"It's not a toomah."
Side note: I think AFI's definition of "inspirational" must be very different from mine. GOOD movies are not necessarily inspirational just because they are good.

No "Varsity Blues?" That movie was just as inspirational as "Rudy" and it had naked boobies in it.
I just knew you would bring up Philadelphia.
How is Forrest Gump inspiring? It's a good movie, but not inspiring.
Sure it is. The dumber you, are the higher your potential. Isn't that inspiring?
And I'm surprised you didn't mention Drugstore Cowboy or My Own Private Idaho as examples of fine uplifting Portland movies.
I'm trying to determine if your placement of the comma was intentional or not.
Creating confusion is half the battle.
