My Favorite Movies

These movies are listed in order, at least the top 20. "Breakfast Club" has been my favorite movie for many years, and nothing has come along to dethrone it. Something about that movie resonates deeply with me, maybe because I, in school, was part athlete and part brain, thereby crossing two of the categories this film focuses on.

I've probably watched "Dirty Dozen" more than any other film. When I'm channel-surfing and come across it, I can't help myself.

About Me

Steve DennieCareer-wise, I've been hanging around and writing about and cheering on churches and pastors for the past 25 years as my denomination's Communications Director.
My posts stray into sports, politics, movies, and other nonsense. But the continuing thread is serving God faithfully through the local church.
I've been blogging since 2004, and it's been fun. Please understand that, though I work for the United Brethren in Christ denomination, the nonsense I spew out here comes from my own semi-functional brain in a totally personal, non-official capacity. Yes, that's a disclaimer.

To leave comments, I suggest using OpenID. You can use it not only here, but on tens of thousands of other sites.
With OpenID, you need to remember just one username. Sweet. It's free and simple.
You can get an OpenID identity from many places, but I recommend these three: MyID.net, Signon.com, and MyOpenID.com.
But you may already have an OpenID and not know it. Let me tell you about it.
