'Battlefield Earth': required viewing?'Battlefield Earth': required viewing?Good news! Someone out there has compiled a handy list of 300 movies you must see before you die. [1] The catch? The “someone” in question is Maxim magazine, so the list includes categories such as "Classics, Nudity, & Train Wrecks.” The list includes true works of art — “Cool Hand Luke,” “On the Waterfront” — and some more questionable titles — “Battlefield Earth,” “Jackass: The Movie.” Overall, The Maxim 300 is a pretty decent best-of list, provided you're not into tearjerking date movies that star Meryl Streep or Barbara Streisand. If you are into tearjerkers and you're a typical Maxim reader, you might want to consider laying off the estrogen therapy for awhile. (Jorge Sosa is a staff writer for the Hutchinson Leader.
