Some years have had themes and some haven't. There really isn't a reason to have one except that it looks good on t-shirts, mugs and their ilk. As the titles role in, board members have had fun imagining what a potential theme might be based on some common element or other.

I suggest:

---

THE BIG BOYS: They Don't Cry!

Movie	Actor	Height
The Cabinet of Dr Caligari	Conrad Veidt	6' 2 1/2"
This Island Earth	Jeff Morrow*	6' 1"*
This Island Earth	Rex Reason	6' 3"
2001: A Space Oddyssey	William Sylvester	6' 3"
Ragnarok	Pål Sverre Hagen	6' 5 1/2"
Them	James Arness	6' 7"
Moonraker	Richard Kiel	7' 2"
The Day the Earth Stood Still	Gort	10'
The Iron Giant	Title Role	60'

*Without his big forehead

Of course, Tom Cruise may feel excluded from this list.

I offered my idea.
