Harold & Kumar Go to White Castle 2004,  R)

Great movie, made even better by the role played by NPH.
21
Godzilla - Tokyo S.O.S. 2004,  PG)
22
Castle in the Sky 1989,  PG)
Castle in the Sky
I originally saw this in the theater before Disney got it's paws on it, and it was called Laputa. One of the originals in the late 80's and early 90's to cross the Pacific and cause some waves, along with other's like Akira, Ghost in the Shell, and of course Robotech.

One of the better Teen flicks ever made, but I chalk that one up to it's original writer, William Shakespeare.

34
Batman 1989,  PG-13)
Batman
I loved Batman Begins, but as far as I am concerned, Tim Burton had the right idea as far as Batman goes. Plus, no one(not even Heath) can top Jack Nicolson as The Joker, Nobody.
35
Batman Begins 2005,  PG-13)
36
Batman Returns 1992,  PG-13)
Batman Returns
People tend to forget that Batman in the comics, had versions that were more dark and sinister than the Tim Burton Batman films.

The Mummy 1999,  PG-13)
39
The Mummy Returns 2001,  PG-13)
40
Practical Magic 1998,  PG-13)
Practical Magic
Since I have a few family members whom consider themselves Wicken, this is a good movie to show great interpersonal relationships, but to show that there is more to being a witch, than flying on a broom. Great ending, loved the roof-top leap.
41
In the Heat of the Night 1967,  Unrated)
42
Office Space 1999,  R)
Office Space
This is hands down the movie for all the working class, and those whom hate cubicles as much as me.
43
Waiting 2005,  R)
Waiting
This is another fine movie depicting the way of the service industry life.
44
Hero 2002,  PG-13)

46
Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest 2006,  PG-13)
