We always talk about how great those movies of our childhood are. Remember the first time you saw The Neverending Story? It was an epic tale never to be outdone. Watching it today still conjures up feelings of nostalgia, but is it still the great movie I thought it was when I was 8? I am tired of saying (and hearing) how awesome a movie was when the last time I saw it was when I was 10 years old. There should be a group that reviews the movies of our childhood and judges them by today's standards. Not for special effects necessarily, but through the eyes of an adult rather than an easily amused child. And so this movie club was born. Each time we meet we will review at least one childhood "favorite" and discover if it stands the test of time.
Many thanks to Chris for helping me flesh this idea out and come up with the Onionheads name. I hope everyone involved has a good time and gains a new appreciation for the movies of their childhood.
