How dare you not mention this one... I have an entire thread devoted to this here best movie ever from the 80's...
Labyrinth - Muppets = 80s Dead Poets Society Really agree with Coming to America. Movie's hilarious for those that adjusted to American lifestyles.
Depending on what country she's from, she might like movies relating to her country of origin. I'm just going to throw these out there... Both 80s. Both relating to "no spoken English."
FYI, Showboat Drive-In Theater in Tomball is showing Back To The Future tomorrow for its 25th anniversary. $5 for every car.
maybe she'd prefer chick flicks? she's having a baby the boy who could fly all those patrick dempsey teen movies legend
What ya talkin' bout, dude? I never raped that chick. Sure, I may have been a little rough, but she dug it! Want proof? She's taking her hair down. Now that's a signal, am I wrong? Here, I'm tellin' her how it is. That I'm a Blade Runner, sure, a cat who should be offin' her ass, but instead, what do I do? I grab it and plant one on her! Does she look unhappy? I think not!
