Favorite John Travolta movie?
 
John Travolta - Wikipedia

He lives up near Ocala, FL the last I heard and is known to come to a Villages' movie theater.

I recall I had to wait a few days to see Wild Hogs here in the Villages because of how many people were going to see this movie.

Really loved the movie Michael. Michael (1996 film - Wikipedia))

Saturday Night Fever, basically for the Bee Gees music.
Even the dead and dying still manage to tap their feet when it plays!

Urban Cowboy has always been a favorite. Debra Winger is a big reason.

I wonder how many people know why it was called “Broken Arrow”? My favorite line… “Would you mind not shooting at the thermonuclear weapons?”

broken arrow in military terms means an unintended nuclear weapon incident in our own inventory eg attachment.

Yep. When I was in the USAF, I worked on and around Minuteman III ICBM missiles. We had to test quarterly on these terms.

Phenomenon (with Kyra Sedgwick)

Being a child of the 70’s, The Boy in The Plastic Bubble. Still can sing the movie’s song. Ended up becoming an ER nurse. It got me hooked on wanting to make a difference❤️

Nana2Teddy 02-20-2023 07:25 AM

Grease because of Olivia Newton John. I was a big fan of hers, had all of her albums. I thought he did a good job opposite her in the movie.

this movie taught me to observe nature more intently. As depicted in the movie the swaying trees are symbolic of the movement of everything in the universe. How everything is connected
