"City of God" is a great movie, its about gangs and drug dealers in brazil, "lords of dogtown" is really good and "the Doors" movie is pretty good as well
<div class="quote_poster">norespect Wrote</div><div class="quote_post">All i can say is WOW. Alot of crap being recomended... I was just wondering what makes a good movie to you guys? For me it has to have 1. Good story 2. Good writing 3. Good acting 4. Good/original cinematograpy Watch American Beauty (acting, story, writing and cinematograpy) Snatch ( story, writing and camera work) Sin City (story and camera work)</div> American Beauty was crap. Kevin Spacey going through a mid-life crisis and gets inspired by a highschooler. The other subplot is the pot dealing kid who films dead things. Lame story, lame writing, lame characters, and what exactly was great about the cinematography? Snatch was awesome. TBM has a great list of movies.
lol I'm going to make a list. I didn't know snakes on a plane was good, I thought it sounded like some guy thought about it on a toilet or something . <u>Mainstream huge budget</u> Lord of the Rings Matrix (first one only) Star Wars (all 3) <u>I like the plots</u> Shankshaw Redemption The Usual Suspects Life of David Gale Memento LA Confidential Mystic River (I think that is its name) A Beautiful Mind Forest Gump Ocean's 11 <u>Humour</u> Monty Python and the Holy Grail Austin Powers (The first was the best) Wayne's World (1 and 2) The Mask Ace Ventura Dumb and Dumber Spy Hard Naked Gun 33 1/2 (or whatever numbers) Something About Mary Old School Anchorman <u>Kind of Gorey</u> Goodfellas Silence of the Lambs Fight Club Se7en <u>Not scary, but as a kid scared me</u> Gremlins Goonies Pirannas (sp?) I saw this when I was really young and gave me nightmares. First rated R movie. Terrible movie though I think from what I remember. <u>Action/adventure</u> Gladiator Braveheart Patriot Back to the Future Aladdin Ghostbusters Home Alone 1&2 <u>Just action</u> Soldier - with Kurt Russell True Lies (I've seen it like 5 times lol) Arnold Swartzeneggar movies <u>Musical</u> Greece West side story (kind of forget it though, I like their finger snapping) <u>Documentaries</u> Supersize this <u>Kind of bad, which makes them good</u> Waterworld Night at the Roxbury
Actually, it was Supersize Me, not Supersize This, and that was an interesting movie. Pretty funny actually. Also, for musicals, how can you forget South Park: Bigger, Longer, and Uncut, and Team America? Haha, while they are technically comedies (and funny as hell at that), they also are very much musicals.

<div class="quote_poster">TheFreshPrince Wrote</div><div class="quote_post">How so?

Didn't work, didnt go out. If that is the case of course you are going to have those results. You would with any food.

<div class="quote_poster">Moo2K4 Wrote</div><div class="quote_post">As for a recommendation, check out Thank You For Smoking. It's not the stupid humor comedies that a lot of movies are today and it's easily one of the funniest movies of the year.</div> Ah, Beat me to it. One of the funniest movies I've seen in a llooonng time.
<div class="quote_poster">Run BJM Wrote</div><div class="quote_post">Coincidentally I just watched it for the first time last night and it was a great movie, I'll second this. Other recommendations: Blow Goodfellas (best gangster movie ever IMO) Se7en The Island</div> Great damn movies. I love Se7en, one of my favorites.
<div class="quote_poster">kobimel Wrote</div><div class="quote_post">Guess Who? was pretty funny. Lord of War was a great movie. The Longest Yard is a good comedy.</div>Lord of War was an awesome movie. I love Jared Leto. I thought he and Nicholas Cage were great in that movie.
<div class="quote_poster">Moo2K4 Wrote</div><div class="quote_post">Other movies I'd recommend: Silence of the Lambs Donnie Darko Jarhead Snakes on a Plane V for Vendetta (best movie of the year) The Descent A Scanner Darkly Walk The Line (who knew Joaquin Phoenix and Resse Witherspoon could sing so damn good?) Garden State Billy Madison A History Of Violence The Girl Next Door</div> Man I thought I was the only one on this site who actually liked the movie.
<div class="quote_poster">TheFreshPrince Wrote</div><div class="quote_post">One of my least favorite movies of all-time. as someone said, the prestige, i just saw it, it was really really good.</div> Gut twisting isn't it.
Goodfellas Raging Bull (fucking amazing, Robert De Niro's best IMO) The Deer Hunter (another amazing De Niro/Scorsese flick) The Godfather Training Day Thin Red Line Saving Private Ryan Apocalypse Now was pretty good
