I say you have to have Boondock Saints in your collection

sapiens · 02-24-2005, 10:29 AM

Groundhog Day. I've seen it many times and I still enjoy it.

CandyLover · 02-24-2005, 10:47 AM

Fight Club

TheWalkinDude · 02-24-2005, 10:47 AM

The Royal Tenenbaums. I've watched that masterpiece more times than I can count. Hearing the chorus of Hey Jude burst out at the start just fills me with undescribable joy every time.

Snoogans · 02-24-2005, 12:19 PM

The Big Lebowski

Fremen · 02-24-2005, 01:41 PM

ShaniFaye · 02-24-2005, 05:37 PM

The Wedding Singer

Rawrr · 02-24-2005, 05:50 PM

Agreed this is very hard..someone has already chosen Fight Club so I'll say;

Ian Fleming's Thunderball

spindles · 02-24-2005, 06:26 PM

Monty Python and the Holy Grail

sgn43 · 02-24-2005, 06:37 PM

Since a lot of the movies I'd recommend have already been mentioned, I'll say:

Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind

silent_jay · 02-24-2005, 06:44 PM

I guess I'd have to say Rounders

GetRdone · 02-24-2005, 06:50 PM

Rounders is a good movie for sure. Im surprised no one has mentioned GoodFellas.

Carno · 02-24-2005, 07:25 PM

I'm going to have to second Boondock Saints.

radioguy · 02-24-2005, 07:43 PM

jay and silent bob strike back -- you gotta have something with dick and fart jokes!

Church · 02-24-2005, 07:53 PM

Heat, such a great movie. Its kinda hard to find around here though. That's my answer right now.

BUT, when it actually comes out, consider my answer changed to Donnie Darko: Director's Cut.

FngKestrel · 02-24-2005, 11:52 PM

People have mentioned Boondock Saints and Fight Club, so I'll go with Army of Darkness.

eltardo · 02-25-2005, 12:00 AM

I was going to say City of God myself, but someone beat me to it. Instead I'll go with Alien.

Word.

Jackebear · 02-25-2005, 12:24 AM

The Right Stuff.

Anybody remember this one...the history of the space program...from Chuck Yaeger to John Glenn. I bought this for my Dad a number of years ago.

soccerchamp76 · 02-25-2005, 01:23 AM

Gladiator

My top favorite movie
