I agree with you on "Testament", Keith. And yes, you *should* read "Y: The Last 
Man". Last issue is a gut-punch.

But number six is the movie "Testament"! At last! How many times have I crowed 
right here about what a beautiful, poignant film that is. I think i just posted 
about it in the last few weeks. "Testament" is often lost amidst the memories 
of  the showier, and far less resonant TV miniseries "The Day After". That last 
is still very good, and has some frightening scenes of nuclear winter--Carl 
Sagan was an advisor after all. But "Testament" has a much closer-to-home human 
impact that's far more devastating.
I've never read "Y: the Last Man". Should I?

How "Children of Men" falls so far down on that list is beyond me... that 
Emmerich dreck should be holding up the bottom, IMO.

These are some good choices. They did a remake of the Road and it is coming
in a couple of months. I saw the commercial for it already. Hey! What
happened to that Densel Washington movie?

Also, I think there is a Day of the Trifids remake due as well.
