Is the Big Lebowski pretty good? I can get it for $10 and I thought I might as well just go for it, being so cheap.

She's known more as a music star. She did the big 80's hit Physical.

The woman who did "Heaven is a Place on Earth" is Australian? I think you may be wrong on that one!

Well known songs include "Let Me Be There", "I Honestly Love You", "Have You Never Been Mellow", "Please Mr. Please", "Summer Nights", "You're The One That I Want", "Hopelessly Devoted To You", "Magic", "Xanadu", "Physical", "A Little More Love", and "Twist of Fate."

I don't trust that site at all. They didn't even include her most famous song "Heaven is a Place on Earth"

But as you pointed out, Olivia Newton John didn't sing "Heaven is a Place on Earth" Belinda Carlisle did

Which has nothing to do with Grease which is what started all this.

Oh, I've never seen Grease. So who's in it...Belinda Carlisle or Olivia Newton John?

The second one. But the accent is real.

Let's get back on track, lol...

I'm amazed anyone hasn't said Mystic River, Kill Bill, and Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. Not to mention Halloween, Silence of the Lambs, Breakfast Club and Stand by Me.

Wait, NM, some people did put Kill Bill on there...

Oh and droidguy, mazeltov for putting American Beauty on there...brilliant casting in that film. I can't believe I forgot the Lord of the Rings too.

Oh, and Blair Witch Project. Brilliant.
