Just seen Pulp Fiction, can't believe the bitch tryed to snort H

derekisdman · 02-13-2005, 04:12 PM

I find that Blow is alright, but it's basically just a Goodfellas copycat. Based on true stories, focused on a kid coming from a hard working family; the kid gets involved with drugs and gangsters, life hits an all time high and then hits an all time low. The style even trys to mimic Goodfellas, with basically an identical narration technique (which doesn't even compare to Goodfellas in quality). It trys to do fancy editing and camera tricks just like Goodfellas, and again doesn't even compare.

If you've got a problem with that Flex that's fine. What? You think i'm funny? Funny how? Am I a fucking clown? Do I ammuse you? How the fuck am I funny tell me that?

derekisdman · 02-13-2005, 04:13 PM

Oh also you should check out Boogie Nights and Magnolia. Also, Taxi Driver and everything else by Scorsese.

sgtneo · 02-13-2005, 04:16 PM

One of the best movies ever. How good is the last scene

"Hate to shatter your ego, but this ain't the first time I've had a gun pointed at me."

"We goin' be like 3 little fonzi's. And what was Fonzi?"

"Cool?"

"CORRECTAMUNDO.....He was cool."

Flex · 02-13-2005, 04:38 PM

Dkid- "One minute we're huggin' and kissin', and the next minute you're treatin' me like a fuckin' jerk.........Go get your fuckin' shinebox"

Obviously GF's is one of the best movies ever, but i think Blow is right up there, too....to each his own.

Since you love GF's, you should check out Henry's "new" book "Ganster's and Goodfellas". it actually came out early last summer, but its GREAT. He goes over the story, not in detail like in "Wiseguys", but enough so you know whats going on. then it picks up from when he goes into witness protection. man, that dude was fuckin crazy. it's amazing he didn't die from either gettin' whacked or overdosing.

LittleKid · 02-13-2005, 06:10 PM

I'm about to watch Goodfellas, so it's basically the same style as Blow? I liked Blow alot, so i'll probaly like this even better according to derek

Samuel Jackson is a bad motherfucker!

There arent many out there that are better than Goodfellas.

Check out A Bronx Tale though, its fuckin eh.

The__wenger · 02-13-2005, 07:59 PM

I can name quite a few, but my favourite movie is:..Monty Python and the Holy Grail.

No shit.

Havent seen Bronx Tale yet but thats next on my list .. if I can find it

Flex · 02-14-2005, 07:44 AM

Bronx tale is pretty good, but not nearly as good as the others.

If you guys want a great, not-very-popular movie, check out Snatch. once in a while you have a hard time deciphering their gibberish, but once you get past that hte movie is AWESOME.

The__wenger · 02-14-2005, 08:26 AM

I watched it the other night, "frailty" is quite a good movie

JJJ · 02-14-2005, 10:45 AM

For some outside of hollywood movies, pick up Stalingrad and Hrafnin Flygyr. They are both awesome.

Sacto95827 · 02-14-2005, 04:58 PM

Snatch was sick! It's great trying to understand what the hell Pitt is trying to say. Like do ya lyke de d-awg. The what...oh the dog...

But I must say Patton is one of my favorites...the quotes are classic!

Heh you have Eraserhead and Hackers on the same list. That's what I call diversity. It's probably not even worth mentioning since someone would have to go completely out of their way to find it. I do like Hackers though. Call it a guilty pleasure.

Jayhoo · 02-16-2005, 01:07 AM

I'm going to post my "must sees" regardless of whether they've been posted already

The Motorcycle Diaries
Serpico
Scarface
Trainspotting
The Doors
Pink Floyd: The Wall
(EDIT: ) Easy Rider

Animal House

maniclion · 02-16-2005, 01:12 AM

The Little Prince is one of my all time favorite as well as Never Ending Story
