Seen all.

Well, at least I am not the only person who has seen all of these.
Hail to thyself
For I am my own master
I am my own god
I require no shepherd
For I am no sheep.

The list looks like essential man cave viewings. The only movie I've seen but don't remember much about anymore is Octop***y. I might have to rewatch.
And I don't remember the theme song for The Living Daylights at all.

Alex

It was by Aha if memory serves and involved a lot of 'OoooooOOOOOoooo The Living Daylights' being sung.
Hail to thyself
For I am my own master
I am my own god
I require no shepherd
For I am no sheep.

Me too: seeing Pet Sematary in the cinema was a big thrill for me as the cinema staff decorated the entrance with trees and fake tombstones  :buggedout:

Licence To Kill was another good Bond film: Bond was played as a cultured animal and the film was very violent.
We shall meet in the place where there is no darkness.

Tron was awesome visually but they didn't do much with it storywise
