LittleKid · 02-12-2005, 09:02 PM

I was just wondering if you guys could name off some must see movies.

Recently i've seen
Friday Night Lights - enjoyed this)
& watched Full Metal Jacket - ahahah, loved this one

is Pulp Fiction one of those?

Du · 02-12-2005, 09:03 PM

Pulp fiction is definitely one of those.

So is Super Troopers.

DOMS · 02-12-2005, 09:09 PM

LOL, Super Troopers was an awesome movie!

I don't really remember Training Day but I remember it being pretty good (Denzel is a great actor)

Being quite the cinephile, i've got a long list of must see films; most of which you would probably find pretentious and boring and would end up turning them off 20 minutes into them.

What kind of films are you wanting to see? Probably more recent (within the last 15 years or so) mainstream films no?

DOMS · 02-12-2005, 09:17 PM

Aliens

I don't have any real preferences..

A few movies are like that for me tho yes, first movie that comes to mind is Articificial Inteligence... *yawn*
I like alot of sports movies, but lately the "sports movies" are less about sports & just caked up with drama.

Scarface.. that has honestly been my favorite movie ever since watching it.

Blow was great to, Johnny Depp is another one of those great actors.

derekisdman · 02-12-2005, 09:29 PM

If you liked full metal jacket (or war movies in general) you might like Apocalypse Now, Platoon, or Casualties of War.

haven't seen those, but yeah i've seen Full Metal Jacket & Black Hawk Down.. liked 'em alot.

Plan on seeing Saving Private Ryan, had plenty of chances just always forget

derekisdman · 02-12-2005, 09:36 PM

Here's a list of my DVD collection. Almost all of these I suggest checking out, with an exception of a few.

Oh and about Flex's list, put Goodfellas at the top of your to see list. It's one of the best films of all time and the best gangster film ever. (yes better than the Godfather) You can skip over Blow, it's basically a poor excuse for a wanna be Goodfellas

vellanator · 02-12-2005, 09:41 PM

Goodfellas - followed closely by
Pulp Fiction

some random favorites after that:

Blade Runner
The Big Lebowski
Shawshank Redemption
Private Parts (no, it's not a porno - that's a separate list)

Funny that you should mention that one. I just got back from seeing it. I thought it was rather good.

derekisdman · 02-12-2005, 09:45 PM

Along with Big Lebowski you should especially check out Fargo and basically all other Coen brothers films.

I agree. The story, the acting, plus the way its put together (the music, the scenes etc.) make it maybe the best movie ever.

I'm curious as to why you don't like Blow, though. It's not supposed to be another gangster movie. IMO it has a great story, great actors and the same good techinical movie shit that GF has. I love that part when the song "Blinded by the Light" comes on and all those pictures flash on the screen. Then it shows the two guys in the house filled with so much cash they don't have room for anymore. Shit like that makes a great movie.

Other great movies:

The Great White Hype (SO funny)
Snatch
LOTR
Young Guns II
Maverick
Pirates of the Carribean
The Predator
Terminators (if you havent seen them already)
Toy Soldiers
The Goonies
The Lost Boys

i'll be back to name more later...

LittleKid · 02-13-2005, 08:20 AM

I can't believe I forgot... Casino!!!

That was a great movie, seen it many a time.

Archangel · 02-13-2005, 09:43 AM

Excalibur
A Knights Tale
Troy
Gladiator
