i probably think is 'Death Note' ..anyone of u knoes this movie??hah

Plasma Snake[D] · Jan 4, 2007, 07:22 am

Since you guys already mentioned my favorite movie I also think Fight Club and Carandiru should be mentioned. Carandiru is about the prison riot in Sao Paulo, Brazil that cost the lives of 111 inmates, but not a single policeman was killed or injured.

Pulp Fiction is on my top 5 list.

Here's my updated top 5 list right now:

#1: Office Space
#2: Training Day
#3: Pulp Fiction
#4: Kill Bill
#5: The Da Vinci Code(just saw yesterday omg it was awesome!)

Movies I can't wait to see:

The Number 23
DejaVu
Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix(gotta finish the book first -_-)
Aqua Teen Hunger Force: The Movie
Death of a President
Penn & Teller Season 5(not rly a movie, but show nonetheless)
Balls of Fury
The Blood Diamond
Broken Arrows
Clerks 2
Evan Almighty
Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer
Ghost Rider
Ocean's Thirteen(yeah I laffed too XD)
007 Casino Royal
American Pie 5: The Naked Mile
Beerfest
The Pursuit of Happiness
The Good Shepherd
Eragon
Ice Age: The Meltdown
Accepted
An Inconvenient Truth

I personally can't wait for another dinosaur movie to come out. The Jurassic Park series was intense! I forgot the name of that new movie coming out where a bunch of assassins try to kill one guy. It's hard to develop a top 5 list, as it changes constantly, and considering I've seen over a few thousand movies, it becomes even harder, but my top #1 slot will always be office space, unless an office space 2 comes out... Then we'll see.

Accepted is really good. I will be glad when Borat comes out on DVD. That may be one of the most disturbing comedies I've ever seen.

Just watched Children of Men, and I hereby nominate that best movie of 2006. It was simply amazing.

pahl · Jan 8, 2007, 07:56 pm

Have anyone seen "Crank"? Quite possible the best action movie last year.

The Bacon Guy · Jan 9, 2007, 08:52 pm

God yes. For sheer entertainment value, that film ranks among the best this year. I mean what could be more fun than watching Jason Statham on an insane drug fuelled rampage through LA?

Best film of the year for me had to be The Departed. After The Aviator and Gangs of New York I was starting to think Scorsese was losing it, but this film restored my faith one hundred percent.

kubedawg · Jan 10, 2007, 04:25 am

omg i wanna see that!!!!

kubedawg · Jan 12, 2007, 07:16 am

I just saw Crank.

That movie WAS AWESOME!!!!!

Holy crap! I can't believe it! That was BRILLIANT!!!!!!!!!!!!

Milton Bradley · Feb 10, 2007, 10:02 pm

If you want to see a terrifying film, check out 'Jesus Camp.'

Osborn F Enready · Feb 11, 2007, 05:16 pm

For those who haven't seen the movie Bronx Tale, it is starting in 15 mins (est) at 5:30 pm on "AMC" (American Movie Classics).

I highly rate that film, and even the edited version they are showing. (they didn't have to cut too much out, but some language)

Check it out.... its a classic Deniro film.

Monty Python, Holy Grail. i know most of the lines by heart. Some very funny scenes as well as annoying Pythonism.

The Black Knight "It's only a flesh wound!"

The Abbess: "We must be spanked!"

King Arthur: "Run away!"

The Knights who say Nih: "A shrubbery!"

Brave Sir Robin's bard: "When danger reared its ugly head, Sir Robin bravely turned and fled!"

Easily my favorite comedy, I can wqatch that like three times a week, monty python kills me. I've yet to see all of life of Brian, though.

Gods_Mercenary · Feb 11, 2007, 05:34 pm

I love Gladiator, with russel crowe, but that may just be my insanely almost romantic love for roman history coming out, not to mention annoying emperors getting killed with their own effn dagger, yay violence!

Gods_Mercenary · Feb 11, 2007, 05:45 pm

See, I didn't like the Da vinci code, I thought the book was pretty good, but there just wasn't enough physical action to get a movie going for me. I'd much rather read the book over again.

I also like the Lord of the rings movies.

A little back story if I may...

Bronx Tale is the true life story of Chaz Palmintari. The movie studios repeatedly rejected the screenplay because Chaz insisted that he be allowed to play the part of Sonny, the man who mentored him in his youth.

The film was only made when Deniro took a chance, and financed the film complete with Chaz as Sonny.

Obviously a good gamble on Denorio's part.

Gods_Mercenary · Mar 18, 2007, 01:59 pm

I just remembered I like The Hunt for Red October as well, and Braveheart. I guess I like anything halfway good about history.

nm420 · Mar 18, 2007, 06:57 pm

"Dr. Strangelove" is near the top, though it's obviously difficult to come up with only one, or only 10, or only 100, or...

But Stanley Kubrick was a master equaled by none, as far as I'm concerned.
