Siskel and Catebert Go to the Video Store

Grab yer popcorn kids!! It's time for Catebert's favorite movie picks of all time...er, well, maybe that's overstating it a bit...Nah! These ARE the some of the greatest movies ever, ever, ever! Now youse guys will have to run out to the video store because Catebert doesn't patronize the tiny lameass mega-anthills that pass for movie theaters these days. I mean, she can get her kids to kick the back of her chair and spill coke on the floor at home, right? Of course, this isn't the definitive list by any means.
