Blame Mary not poor ol' Steve, Jack, and sorry its too late now, Wind and the Lion will now go down in the annals as your favorite film of 1975, which is how it should be, John Milius greatest ever flick (which isn't saying much), fabulous score by Jerry Goldsmith and Sean Connery sans Walther PPK or wearing a red Zardoz nappy [Jack jots my name down in his little black book), and much more enjoyable than that silly period film by Stan the Man (Jack draws a hangman next to my name in his little black book)... 
ps. Be thankful you didn't accidently put down Jaws as your favorite 1975 film, you might never live it down (Jack contemplates using ignore feature on member)...
pps. Kidding Jack, as always...

As the show was about nothing I say the same about this thread and therefore proclaim it a Sienfield.

Not Friends? Another nothing show. Actually I love Sex and the City myself (so does mein fraulein), nice girls, I have the hots for Kim Cattrall, Sandra fancies the guy who plays Aidan (the silly twit).
Dennis, yep Candice Bergen was lovely in 'Jack's favorite film of 1975', love the bit when the Raisuli clobbered her for laughing at him, I know exactly how he feels.
Quick I see Jack coming lets scarper (hey theres a word you don't see much nowadays, scarper, scarpering).

"Mrs. Pedicaras ..."
Once again, Barry Lyndon ... is ... my ... favorite ... film ... from 1975. Barry Lyndon. Directed by Stanley Kubrick and starring Ryan O'Neil and Marisa Berenson (who, industry insiders report, was very Sean Young before there was a Sean Young appearing in movies).
As for The Man Who Would Be King: I love that movie! Absolutely love it. More than The Wind and the Lion.
Too bad about the DVD transfer (horrid). And too bad that The Wind and the Lion isn't even on DVD yet.
And, finally, the Seinfeld reference by our leader, my boss, and site co-owner Parker Clack: Hey, if you want to see a thread that's really about nothing, check out the current generation/incarnation of "Thread Killer."
Parker: Aren't you on the boat? You were going on the cruise, right? Ron reports that the ship is festooned, dominated by AVS Forum members. If I read correctly, he said that many of the AVS people haven't even heard of HTF.
This upsets me. HTF shall overcome. AVS will one day be second banana to us. HTF rules, damn it.

Well, it's your third favorite film from 1975 too!
Now, have we any further observations about and rememberances from 1975? Anybody else care to share a 1975 moment with us before we move on to 1976?

Hang in there, Dennis. We all know Steve is capable of making mistakes. What's one of your fave 1975 moments? (I still get a chuckly when I think about Jerry Ford stumbling down that airline ramp. It helped make Chevy Chase such a hit on SNL.)

Young Frankenstein came out in 1974.
|
Technically you're correct, it came out Dec 1974, but it didn't open over here in London until 1975, and thats when I saw it for the first time, so for me it was a 1975 film (satisfied grin).
"That's Fron-kon-steen!"
