Spiderman 1 and 2
Big Fish
Nightmare Before Christmas
Fast Times At Rigdemont High <<< absolutely the funniest and greatest movie of all time >>>
Mystic River
Anchorman
The Italian Job
and ... Groundhog Day

If your into Independent stuff:

The Secret Window (basically any Johnny Depp Movie)
The Goonies
Now and Then
Scary Movie (just the first one)
Corky Romano
The World Accroding to Garp (reading it right now!)
And umm, I dunno. I agree with what a lot of other people said.

THE ITALIAN JOB!

While I was on vacation I could not, for the life of me, remember the name of that movie. Thank you.

Now and Then...I <3 that movie.

Dr. Strangelove: Or How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb

It's a Kubrick film from 1964. It tells of a fictional situation where a crazy US general sends a bunch of bomber planes to drop atomic bombs on the USSR. It's absolutely hilarious if you like dark humour.

the rock

thats a great movie

Queens Of The Stone Age-Someone's In The Wolf

Once you're lost in twillights's blue
You don't find your way, the way finds you...

Tempt the fates, beware the smile
It hides all the teeth, my dear,
What's behind them...

So glad you could stay
Forever

He steps between the trees, a crooked man
There's blood on the blade
Don't take his hand

You warm by the firelight, in twilight's blue
Shadows creep & dance the walls
He's creeping too..

So glad you could stay
Forever

Michael Moore is very good with his editing. People, don't take everything he says as the absolute truth. I hate Bush too, but c'mon now...

we just rented 6 dvds for 6.66 which we should have done all year but oh well:

we rented:
The Royal Tennenbaums
Lost in Translation
Reservoir Dogs
The Godfater
The Wickerman
Evil Dead

supposedly the Wickerman is a really messed up old indie horror movie...we have only watched the Royal Tennenbaums which I had seen before. I am trying to see all the movies people consider their favorites or classics.

Evil Dead = horrible horrible movie. The funny part is, though, that they were trying to make it a good movie. Evil Dead II = made by the same people, but made to make fun of the first one's crappiness. :lol:
