    Yes I like the film Scarface.  Michelle Pfeiffer was smoking hot and that film portrayed the brutal violence, insane profits and the global reach of the cocaine cartels at the time. The chainsaw scene. The scene in the car when the Colombian assassin wants to blow up the car with the kids. It has not aged well, the music is cheesy and the sequence with Gina at the end (fuck me Tony) makes me cringe. But its a classic film and outside of the godfather series, one of Pacino's best roles. 
    Mark Margolis plays the assassin,  Otherwise known as Hector Salamanca from breaking bad. Probably my favorite scene ever in TV when he blows up Gus's face.

    Classic '80's films and no one mentons Fast Times?!  That was the film of my generation!  Well, I graduated the year after its release, but still...

    Don’t like any movies where the main character is supposed to be of certain heritage played by someone who’s not of that heritage , like John Wayne playing a Mongolian Monarch lol horrible ..

    Gremlins is highly underrated. One of my favorites as well.

    I loved that film, how it captured how fucked up - and sometimes loving - families can be (moreso around the holidays).

    I wish there was a cable channel that featured a 24 hour marathon of this film. On Thanksgiving and Christmas.

    Elf is a great  movie. 
    What a Wonderful Life is essential Christmas viewing. 

    I"d add The Santa Clause to the list - i love that movie. 

    And Die Hard is not just a guy's Christmas movie - it's loved by many women esp this one.
