    That's a good list up there, JWohl. You forgot Rush Hour though ([​IMG])

    Also I forgot about my list!

    Scarface
    Rush Hour
    Love and Basketball [​IMG]
    Drumline
    Boyz n the Hood
    The Pianist
    Those are the only ones I can think of now. I'll finish it soon.

    I know I'm probably alone on this, but doesn anyone NOT like The Matrix? Did anyone other than me find that slow motion, 360-degree every 30 seconds thing annoying?

    Pianist was good, mrj. Nice pick. Compelling story and fabulous movie.

    EDIT: I really disliked the Matrix, except for some of the Smith scenes.

    Compelling indeed. I was very touched by the movie.

    Yes! Too bad you're the only one I know who doesn't like it.

    Oh yes you're right, you did, I missed it.

    <div class="quote_poster">Quoting Jwohl:</div><div class="quote_post">I meant to....</div>

    Shame on you! You cant forget about the Godfather. It's not just a movie. It's a way of life. It answers all of life's important questions like, what's today? "Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday". What to bring with you on a trip? "Leave the gun, take the canoli". Great bunch of movies.

    <div class="quote_poster">Quoting Voodoo Child:</div><div class="quote_post">Hallie Berry's movies (just for the fact that she's hot)</div>

    Halle Berry is indeed hot. Did you see Monster Ball?

    And is there a worse actor than Vin Diesel in the world of acting today? He is just lousy. Triple X was one of the worst movies I have ever seen.


    Anyway I think Isiah Thomas should be fired.

    Oh yeah. You could almost ignore the crappy plot line for the great nude scenes.

    Well, there's always Shaq a.k.a. Steel a.k.a. Kazaam.

    Vin Diesel is a terrible actor but Keanu Reeves is equally terrible. His catch phrase is "woah". XXX was terrible because despite the name the only bare chest the whole movie was Vin Diesel's......
