/wrists

[Slacker]

The Lair of the White Worm?

WTF?? Seriously?

I watched that movie when I was like 13. I was thrilled because it has teh bewbies in it.

I think this is the first mention of it I've seen since then. Are you recommending it because it's a terrible movie, or because it has bewbies? lol

OMG Blasphemy, TLOTWW is hilarious, I could see it going the "so bad its good" route depending on your taste, chec out the reviews on imdb http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0095488/usercomments

Couldn't agree with this more...

 

[Bill Brasky]

Different genre and not that old, but 'traitor' with don cheadle has an excellent plot.

 

[squirrel dog]

Eraserhead
Slingblade
Oh Brother Where Are Thou

 

[shortylickens]

La Femme Nikita
Point of No Return

Watch both on the same day. I promise you will like one more than the other.

I never understood the hyper of Fight Club.

I appreciate the movie, I like the big twist and the 'oh' moment. But that's about it. I saw it long ass ago before it reached a cult status. It was forgettable then and it's merely okay now.

I feel the same way about office space....

:thumbsup:

The Dude can't truly be appreciated until ~7th viewing. Every thing about this flick is brilliant.

Until then, you are way out of your element.

I have never seen the first but have seen (and enjoyed) the other two. Must add to Netflix queue!

There are multiple movies with the title "The Assignment", the one I am speaking of is this:

By the way, the trailer for the movie sucks.

Pulp Fiction...but surely there's no one that hasn't seen this.

I thought Traitor was very ho-hum and ultra derivative. Good action, action-editing and such, but I've seen that exact movie a million billion times, and I really like Don Cheadle and Liv Schieber (he was in that, right?). :\

A similar movie that I really liked that was released around the same time: The Kingdom. A rather cohesive, sensible version of 24.

I really enjoyed the kingdom as well. I guess I thought traitor, being told from a 'terrorist' perspective, was kind of unique, and I was genuinely surprised by the ending.

I've known people from every corner of the country.. and The Big Lebowski is by far the most quotable movie/tv show/song ever. Not only do 95% of people (ages 19-30) know it when you make a reference, they can make multiple references themselves.

La Femme Nikita
Point of No Return

lol, I am going to go ahead and say skip the second one.

I am 37 and have only seen the movie once with a bunch of younger guys in their 20s. Wasnt a horrible movie but i didnt get the allure of it. I would say Dumb & Dumber is the most quotable movie ever Maybe every generation has its hit. For my generation i think Big Lebowski came out too late.

 

[Arkaign]

City of Lost Children
Amelie

^^ Same director

Chaos Theory
Das Boot
The Departed
About Schmidt
One Flew over the cuckoo's nest

well, it really depends on how many movies you watch and if you are in tune with that kind of movie.

City of Lost Children

I almost mentioned this one earlier but i thought it might be too obscure a film for most. I own it and love it. The scenery is just so interesting and well lit.

I watch a ton of movies. It is my favorite past time. Just didnt get what was so funny about the movie though. It had its moments though.
