Bikes: 07 Specialized Langster Comp,06 Kona King Zing, 06 Specialized Rockhopper Pro Disc; 03 LOOK KG461;(destroyed by suv); 85 Panasonic Team America; 73 Peugeot U0-8; 94 Balance Super B BMX; 04 Diamondback Outlook MTB, Diamondback DBR DH

So I figure I'm going to do my November century on my newly acquired trainer. Now the question is: What to watch?

Jurassic Park - Oooo lots of dinosaurs, my favorite.
Bruckheimer/Emmerich Films (The Rock, Godzilla, etc) - Won't get boring. Plenty of action here.
Aliens - An extra-terrestrial century. Throw in Alien vs Predator for good measure.
Star Wars - Will wookie hair get caught in the chainring?
Kung Fu (Bruce Lee, Jet Li, etc) - Lots of fighting so trying to dodge a punch might throw me off balance.
Matrix - I can be The One on The Two wheels.
War Flicks (Bridge Over the River Kwai, Saving Private Ryan, etc) - Lots of shaky cameras could make me sick.
Band of Brothers - Separate from War flicks because of length. My favorite mini-series.

So anybody have any other ideas or input?

:edit: Well I messed that one up. Oh well.

How about anime. Jubei Chan has the main character riding a bike (but it's a cruiser), and Golden Boy has the main character riding too (but it's a mtb). Oh well forget anime. They never ride good bikes.

Turn your comprehension knob up to 11 then watch the movie.

How about you just put your brain on autopilot, close your eyes, and take a nap while you pedal.
