Never saw Tootsie because my parents didn&#8217;t want me to watch a movie involving transvestitism and I barely remember 9 to 5. My family weren&#8217;t big on James Bond movies either, and it wasn&#8217;t until high school when I finally saw the old Sean Connery movies. I&#8217;ve seen the rest off these movies. I remember the summer of &#8217;89 when my friend Matt and I saw Last Crusade and Batman in the same day at the same theater on Bell Road. There was a cool game arcade next door where we played video games in between the two movies. That was a great day.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There are a few movies on this I haven&#8217;t seen. I&#8217;ve never seen a single Rocky movie all the way through.
