Reply With QuoteGalaxy Quest Was very underrated and missed by a lot of people.
It has a great script and stars Tim Allen, Alan Rickman, Sigourny Weaver, Tony Shalhoub and Sam Rockwell.

Old Movies you didn't know about
I just watched One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest last night. That movie was freaking awesome. I can't believe I had never even heard of it until one of my buddies at work told me about it.
I also missed The Usual Suspects when it first came out, but went back and downloaded it. That movie rocks.
With movies blowing goats for quarters these days, I find myself going back to revisit some treasures that I missed the first time around. What I did was wejnt to IMDB and looked at their top 250 movies of all time lsit. I downlaoded any of the movies that I had never heard of, and most of them rocked. Here is a list of some of the others that I thought were pretty cool.
Schindler's List
Casablanca
Citizen Kane
Taxi Driver
Apocalypse Now
The Grapes of Wrath“I used to do drugs. I still do drugs. But I used to, too.”

So many cries of inequality stem from one of group
of people doing little or nothing and then bitching
about another group that actually does something
to improve their lives.

I hear that. Haven't been to the movies in so long because of the crap that comes out. I'd rather re-watch DVD's in my collection or discover classics like you're talking about. Older movies I finally got around to watching that I liked:
Raging Bull
Hoop Dreams
Midnight Express
Beverly Hills Cop
Endless Summer II
The Freshman
West Side Story

Porky's
The following clip is a spoiler. It's one of the funniest parts of the movie.

If you think the movie is worth watching, I'll skip the spoiler and download the movie.

Popeye, staring Robin Williams.
A very underrated movie. In my opinion, it was the first movie to create a surreal environment, ala Tim Burton.
"I'm no physicist, but I know what matters!"
"I'm no doctor, but I'm losing my patience!"
And you'd swear that Robin really was Popeye and Shelly really was Olive.

So good. I caught it on IFC a few months ago and was blown away. Makes we want to move to some tropical place like Hawaii and surf my life away. Definately a DVD purchase worthy flick. Originally Posted by Doublebase

I'm not sure what you can download. . .some of the greats may not even have a trailer online if they are too old. . .
One major classic:
Best Years of Our Lives - 1946 Oscar for Best Picture - the story of returning GI's in a small town after World War II.
Walkabout:
Nothing:

One of my all time favorites, by one of the greatest directors of all times, the one and only Stanly Cubric. Originally Posted by MeatZatk

Speaking of great movies, Henry and June is on HBO...one of my all time faves about Henry Miller (author of Tropic of Cancer, et al) and Anais Nin (writer of a life long journal that is erotically poetic but wasn't published until after her death) anyway the movie is about he and she having an afair and Anais gets lesbo with Henry's wife June in 1930's Paris......it's a great look into the world of great writers, and the artistic mind...
