I kept being reminded of BTTF while writing the list. But mostly I thought of it while watching the trailer for 17 Again. Daveed, I had also thought a lot about All of Me, especially with regard to the gender swaps, but decided not to mention the film to keep the list more confined. Paul, you’re right.
