"Ser Balon Swann, of Stonehelm in the Red Watch", came the herald's cry. Wide white wings ornamented Ser Baldon's greathelm, and black and white swans fought on his shield.

Go to Wikipedia (as the most convenient resource), and copy the list of movies that were released in the year when you were 12 years old. Mark in italics the movies that you've seen. (Not necessarily that year.) Mark in bold the movies that you own on video, DVD, Blu-Ray or whatever.

If you're not sure if you've seen a movie, you haven't.

( Films released in 1992 )

Mhh, I've seen 19 out of 195... Pretty lame, isn't it? *lol*

Because everyone seems to be doing it lately... ;-)
I think I've done a very similar meme before, but never mind.
