[send_the_msg]

get some weird movies in there, you have all the ones that everyone has. i'm thinking movies like waking life, battle royale, whatever. also don't buy 24, i mean how many times can you possibly watch that? just download. also for mainstream moves, get usual suspects.

[PoBoy321]

Caddyshack, The Blues Brothers and The French Connection.

[diebitter]

So many to list, I can't even start. But you must have:

The Producers
Blazing Saddles

Oh ya, forgot about that. I love the Usual Suspects. Also anything with Kevin Spacey or Edward Norton is a plus. They are probably my favorite actors.

With 24, I would have agreed, but I just bought season 1 after not having watched it since its release on TV and it was almost as good as the first time through. I'm thinking every couple of years this will be a good watch. Also, Kim is so damn sexy.

[Vavavoom]

I think the American Pie triology is amusing...


*Se7en
*Fight Club
*Alien
*Life Of Brian
*Top Gun
*Cocktail
*Jerry Maguire
*Jaws
*Minority Report

Some of mine....

[diebitter]

Hell, I just checked my own collection, and I could list 10-20 under V alone...., so I quit.

But before I do, there's also:

TV Shows:
Twin Peaks
The Prisoner

+ ones I've seen recently that deserve a place in any collection:

12 Monkeys
25th Hour

I also want to mention that I need some movies that are good date movies or at least movies that girls and guys will like together. Top Gun is probably good for that. I'll add that to the list.

[Exitonly]

Movie i'm watching currently:

Second Hand Lions...


I really like it. Nice to add to the collection. Would be a good date movie.


Donnie Darko, i'll say again, ebcause it's one of my all time favs.

Ya ya, I already added Darko, it is a very good movie. I've seen entire forums dedicated to understanding that movie better.

[Yossarian]

Sweet Smell of success
The Shawshank Redemption

Sweet Smell of success
The Shawshank Redemption

[/ QUOTE ]

Oh man! I almost forgot possibly my favorite movie! Shawshank Redemption is for sure on the buy list. This is one of the reasons why I posted, when I make my order, I don't want to forget the obvious movies that I love and still have an incomplete collection.

[Vavavoom]

The Green Mile

[GuyOnTilt]

You seem to only be interested in movie made in the last 10 years, so that's gonna limit your choices on good films a lot. But if that's what you like:

City of God
Motorcycle Diaries
Yi Yi
25th Hour
Before Sunset
Hotel Rwanda
Fog of War
Werckmeister Harmonies
Sideways
Spirited Away
Amadeus Director's Cut
Triplets of Belleville
The Incredibles
Rushmore
Being John Malkovich
American Splendor
The Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoisie (not recent, but I've never shown anyone this movie who didn't end up loving it)

GoT

Actually, that is not true. This is why I consider my DVD collection incomplete. I think only The Great Escape and Godfather are the films I have before the 80's, but I would definetly like more, and am interested in good movies from before that I may not remember to have listed.

The Green Mile

[/ QUOTE ]

Ah yes, I remember this is one of the few movies that I actually cried while viewing in the theatres.

[WillMagic]

great movies (http://rogerebert.suntimes.com/apps/pbcs.dll/section?category=REVIEWS08)

Second straight thread I've posted this link in. But you most definitely need it.

Will

[oreogod]

Big Lebowski. Heat. Scent of a Woman...other pacino flicks.

From your collection (great set of movies) you would probably love the movie The Warriors. Great flick.

[oreogod]

OMFG. This movie rules to:

I also want to add John Woo's The Killer and Hard Boiled...pure bliss of the action movie world.

Bloodsport too, great 80s movie.

Thanks. It's being released on Criterion DVD next Tuesday. Joy to the world.

Yes, The Big Lebowski is also a great movie I need to add, the other ones, I will check out first. Thank you.

[zephed]

Slap Shot
This is Spinal Tap

[ditto]

I would add:

The Profesional (called Leon in Europe)
Tao of Steve
Stigmata

could watch these over again... and frequently do...

[Blarg]

Young Frankenstein.
Futurama, all 3 seasons
Simpsons seasons 1-3
Heat
Harold and Kumar Go To Whitecastle
Rob Roy
The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly
Robocop
The Hidden

[diebitter]

Blarg - you beauty! I thought I was the only person in the world who liked/saw the Hidden.

I love the stripper in this, she's perfect.

And a kick-ass car chase, huh?

[Blarg]

That was one of the most fun films ever. And yeah, the stripper almost killed me. She still stands out as one of the most mind-blowingly sexy women I've ever seen in movies.

The action was outrageous, and the acting was even really good and interesting, often funny, sometimes touching. Kyle McLachlan's acting choices were just really interesting to watch throughout. I remember him saying that he was trying to play the role as if he were wearing a mask and trying to figure out how to animate it. His alient just wasnt familiar with humans and didn't really know how to do what he needed to do, to come off right. It was great; everything he did became interesting.

And yeah, that car chase sure started things off with a bang.

And I loved when the possessed guy goes, "I want that car," and you know what's coming has to be bad. REALLY bad. The whole scene of him taking it was hilarious.

The commentary is good too. Amazing that Michael Nouri never went anywhere; he was so good in this and in Fright Night. The director comments that he had everything he needed and was talented and on his way, but his obnoxious personality guaranteed that nobody in Hollywood would ever want to work with him again.

[KyleC]

Army of Darkness, 25th hour awesome movie esp if you like edward norton, Equilibrium, Rest of Kevin Smith movies if you liked Jay and Silent bob Clerks, Mallrats, Kissing Amy, House of Flying Daggers good movie to watch with your lady, Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon as well both with ziyi zhang, The Professional, Bad Santa, all I can think of atm pretty good list so far man...hope this helps

Heh. I was gonna review this some time soon as I felt it deserved some recognition. But I don't need to now /images/graemlins/smile.gif

I guess I'll do my other 'needs to be seen by more' choices - 'The Prophecy' next probly...

Was scanning the thread to see if anyone mentioned these, these are must-haves.

Other classic action films are Lethal Weapon I and II, and Die Hard.

Some good westerns have already been mentioned, I'll throw in The Long Riders.

[diebitter]

Oh for the action quota, top must be Die Hard and Aliens.

[Vavavoom]

I also have the Rocky 1 thru 5 Box set.....this is a must !

Is this the one with Christopher Walken, or the one from the 70s with (I think) Talia Shire?

I'll have to check out this "The Hidden" sounds really cool.

[diebitter]

Prophecy was at 70s one with Talia Shire about a mutant bear I think - that isn't the one I meant. This one was pants. Not just pants, but grey, fraying, old man, contains-all-available-specimens-for-medical-testing pants.


The Prophecy (80s or 90s) has Christopher Walken as the archangel Gabriel. It's fan-bloody-tastic. I'll review it sometime soon.

[gavrilo]

Kind of skimmed the replies so not sure if these have been mentioned.

Saving Private Ryan
True Romance
The Royal Tenenbaums
Bottle Rocket
Outside Providence
Batman Begins
Dumb and Dumber
2 Days in the Valley
Four Rooms
Boiler Room
Taxi Driver
The Silence of the Lambs
Reservoir Dogs
Miller's Crossing
American Psycho

[swede123]

I know one response mentioned Pacino movies so let me suggest a few specifics:

A Dog Day Afternoon
Serpico
Donnie Brasco
Carlito's Way.

Very few mentioned Eastwood movies. Pretty much his entire catalog is worth having, particularly:

The Outlaw Josey Wales
Unforgiven
Where Eagles Dare
The Dirty Harry movies - esp. the first two.

Here is my list for some good Sports flicks

Bull Durham
Field of Dreams
The Natural
Hoosiers
Rudy
Caddyshack

[Blarg]

That list of sports flicks needs North Dallas Forty and The Longest Yard(the first one).

[CollinEstes]

Agreed and I almost forgot

Bad News Bears (the first one)

Futurama is one of the most brilliant shows of the last 10 years, and the entire series is one of the best I've seen in my life.

Fair enough, I will rent season 1 and if I like what I see, will continue.

How does it compare to Family Guy which I believe was released around the same time?

I like many of the same movies you listed. You may enjoy the following:

1. Requiem for a Dream
2. Killing Zoe
3. Full Metal Jacket
4. The French Connection
5. Taxi Driver
6. Pope of Greenwich Village
7. Midnight Run
8. 48 Hrs.

I didn't like it all that much at first either. It's only when I saw the first DVD of it that I realized that it wasn't just good, it was great. The subtleties of the character interactions are often hilarious -- the expressions they trade, and such, are very off kilter and not the ones you would expect in similar situations. The characters themselves are often just fun no matter what they do, particularly Fry, Dr. Zoidberg, and The Professor. There are constant little bits they do that are very funny completely outside of what's happening in the plot and flow of action. And the voice acting in the show is really great.

One of the things I like about it most of all is that it was what the Simpsons used to be -- Groenig's sly slant on things that the Simpsons eventually watered down into a likeable family phenomenon. Futurama's people never lost as much of the misfit as did the Simpsons, or as much of their anger. The Simpsons eventually became a world where even the bad guys join the good guys in being all in this thing together; Mr. Burns and Mr. Smithers lost both their bite and their contemptibility, and were rehabbed into the grand, happy human family. Futurama's people were jerks and losers, sometimes pretty confused about it, sometimes defiant or even happy about it. They still had some spunk, misdirected though it often was. Futurama wasn't afraid to have people who weren't always on the right side of everything, and their digs at the world were sharper and truer than the Simpsons were past their first half dozen years. As The Simpsons slipped more into being a kid's show, Futurama kept an adult twist. I think it's where Groenig's real heart lay after The Simpsons became more of a bland, mid-cult popular juggernaut that nobody would bother writing outraged letters to sponsors about anymore.

Very nice post Blarg.

[Dominic]

good collection, but you really need some classics.

Hitchcock, David Lean, John Ford, Billy Wilder, film noir, etc.

[Blarg]

My first thought was that he needed more horror classics, but some people just don't like horror, and his lack of it suggested he might not either.

I hesitated to recommend The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly, because some don't like westerns, but finally did because it's a great movie whether you like westerns or not.

It's hard to recommend movies for people who are not clear about what they really like.

Donnie Darko, no questions asked.

[/ QUOTE ]

I have a question (hehe), would you recommend the director's cut or the theatrical? I would recommend the theatrical, I found the director's cut left a little less to the imagination and the pace wasn't quite as good.

[KneeCo]

You seem to have a prediliction toward snappy dialogue with some action and honour, I'll take that into account.

You make look at some of the list and think *ugh* black and white, but I assure you these are just amazingly entertaining films that anyone who loves movies will enjoy.

Kurosawa, mainly:
The Seven Samurai
Rashomon
Ikiru
(but I'm pretty sure after you see these you'll want all his flicks).

Wilder, mianly:
The Aparment
Double Indemnity
Sunset Blvd.

Hitchcock, there's a box set coming out this fall I believe, keep a look out.

Scorsese, hopefully you got Goodfellas as part of the box set with After Hours and Mean Streets, and get the MGM box set with Raging Bull. And anything else he directed you don't have.

Kubrick, mainly:
Dr. Strangelove
A Clockwork Orange

Coen Brother, again keep an eye open for fourthcoming box set which will include a new edition of the Big Lebowski. Also, Fargo and Miller's Crossing.

Citizen Kane
Casablanca
The Third Man
Touch of Evil
The Man with No Name Trilogy + Once Upon a Time in the West
Midnight Cowboy
Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid
Glengarry Glen Ross (based on your list, yuou'd probably love this)
Grosse Point Blank + High Fidelity
Lawrence of Arabia
Bonnie and Clyde
The Professional + The Fifth Element
Clerks + Chasing Amy
City of God
Being John Malkovich + Adaptation + Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind
Shaun of the Dead
Before Sunrise + Before Sunset

[BaggyAnt]

Consider listing the DVDs you own in alphabetical order for better replies.

Hope I'm not repeating any here:

PCU
Spaceballs
In the Line of Fire
A Few Good Men
Donnie Brasco
Gladiator
Dude, Where's My Car?

Which ones are you looking to get rid of? PM me if you don't want to post.

[ddubois]

Every movie I wanted to post had already been mentioned in this thread, then I remembered: Deep Cover. This one gets almost no recognition, but I thought it was great. If I had to compare it to something, Heat is the first thing that comes to mind, if only because of the crime theme and the low-key pacing.

[BadBoyBenny]

Haven't read any oher replies. Here are some suggestions

Zoolander
The Shining
Happy Gilmore
12 Monkeys
Die Hard

[Hamish McBagpipe]

I don't see Schindler's List anywhere. Top 10 for me anyway.

[dizong]

Many of these are already mentioned but:

The Good The Bad and The Ugly
This Is Spinal Tap
Tommy Boy
Enter The Dragon

dizong

[johnnybeef]

Entourage season 1. By far my favorite dvd.

[KDawgCometh]

just went through all of the replies. Want to add some that haven't been said yet:

Annie Hall
Basquiat
califonia split
dog day afternoon
