December 3, 200817 yr "The Gods Must Be Crazy" (or something like that). I can't believe I just thought of this one, as I haven't seen it in over 20 years. It's a very funny story about an African tribe that finds an empty Coke bottle (thrown out of a plane) and the absolute chaos it reeks on their small village. Doubt most video stores would even carry it. Anyone else ever seen it?
December 3, 200817 yr Hollywod Knights - Robert Wurl, Tony Danza, Michelle Pfeiffer Diggstown - James Wood and Lou Gossett Jr. Cheyenne Social Club - Henry Fonda and Jimmy Stewart American Hot Wax - with very young Fran Drescher and Jay Leno (very small parts) Diggstown is a great flick. I used to watch it all the time back in the day.
December 3, 200817 yr I'll add a couple more of my all time favorites, that I'm sure many have not heard of. Roman Polanski's Pirates The Burb's Translyvania Twist Transylvania 6-5000 Nothing But Trouble A Perfect World, featuring Kevin Costner Clue Love that movie.
December 3, 200817 yr Vision Quest. Good time of the year to watch it since it's a wrestling movie. Music Box with Jessica Lange. Didn't expect the ending. My whole intention to logging on this thread was to add this to the collection. Nice pick... :thumb:

"Does the noise in my head bother you?"

I own that one. I love it. I love how "dark" it is...I mean really, the filming seems almost monochromatic. Clockwork Orange. Kinda strange, but a good one. I figured everyone had seen this one. :lol: The first time I saw it was in my high school AP Psychology class. Here are some that I like. The first three are in my all time top ten. Cidade de Deus Beyond the Valley of the Dolls Invasion of the Body Snatchers (1956) Dogville Very Bad Things Magnolia Boogie Nights Malena Swimming Pool Amores Perros Dirty Pretty Things In America Irreversible The Magdalene Sisters 21 Grams There are probably plenty more. To the bolded, all very good movies. I figured a lot more people had seen Boogie Nights, so I didn't mention it. 21 Grams is another movie that, like Dogma, I rarely run into anyone who's seen. Considering both movies' casts I don't understand that. As well, they are both absolutely GREAT movies. Magnolia was one I had to watch more than once to appreciate. The first time I saw it I was like Huh?? :lol:
December 3, 200817 yr What about The Saint, with Val Kilmer. It's probably my favorite Val Kilmer movie...and I like 'em all. :lol: Heat is my second favorite.

December 3, 200817 yr Amalie Chocolat The Spirit of St Louis I love Chocolat....so much that I own it. :lol: It's really a great story. What about The Piano. Has anyone seen that? Or The Green Card?
December 3, 200817 yr I would have to say that is a standard reaction. You should check out some of the others on my list. I think you'll like them. Start with In America. Actually, after checking...I've seen In America. Excellent movie! Anyone seen The Man From Elysian Fields? Gotta see Mick Jagger as a pimp-daddy. :lol:
December 3, 200817 yr History of the World Volume I (Mel Brooks) Laws of Attraction (Pierce Bronsnan) Thomas Crown Affair (Pierce Bronsnan) The Dogs of War (Christopher Walken) Sons of Katie Elder
