jurassic park: because it introduced to me cloning and breeding ancient dinosaurs very amazing special effects
terminator 2: because arnold kept his promise and came back
forrest gump: because of jennnn_ni... and foo rus... run foo rus... run
showgirls: because jesse from save by the bell exposed herself
replacement killers: because asian man got big guns... go bang bang and kill a lot of people

to be continued.... 3 thumbs up one from each hand and one from somewhere else on the body
