- A bag full of weenies
- 37 sock puppets, all named Vladimir
- The missing reel from 'The Magnificent Ambersons'
- Any video files (mpeg, mov, avi, wmv) that feature Joe Theisman's massive compound fracture injury from Monday Night Football, November 18th 1985
- A picture of Golda Meir wearing a Devo hat
- The ability to recite passages from the Koran in the "Ubbi-Dubbi" language from Zoom
- A tattoo displaying a rudimentary but working map showing locations of every Kinko's in Everett, MA
- A Pocket Poodle named Moe
That's it... Oh, and change for a twenty.

Actual quote from the movie:
"Your tail is clear. You're OK, Cougar. Just stay on my wing, I'll take you all the way in. Just stay with me. Easy, Cougar. Just a walk in the park, buddy. You're a little low. You're a little low, Coug. Come on, buddy, pull up. Pull up, Cougar. That's it. Almost there. "

Dollars. Though I had to pay 60...I think it's because I review anime.
MM, once again a review of yours has caused rancor and rage among the masses. Every time I feel a disturbance in the force, I know one of your reviews has been posted. Because of you, I can never watch Top Gun the same way again (and I will forever wonder if the plaque for the alternates truly was in the ladies room).
Can we keep this thread around forever? DVDTalk thread hall of fame?
