    The Prestige: One of the best movies of the 00's. Doesn't get enough recognition.

    Arlington Road: Same as above, only for the 90's.

    The Quick and The Dead: Not a "great" western, but it has more re-watchability than other Western of the 90's, save for Tombstone. Thats my humble opinion.

    V For Vendetta: Its the best "superhero/masked hero" movie of the 00's. Well, I take that back. The Dark Knight was better. But this movie is a helluva lot better than the rest.

    Clockers: Jake will back me up on this one.

    Others?

    The Quick and The Dead was hideous... Gene Hackman chewed the scenery in a desperate bid to save it, but the film was beyond saving

    Tombstone is one of the corniest films with actual A-List stars I've ever seen. "HELL'S COMING WITH ME!!!!!" ... dumb
     
  5. Ghost! LOVE that film.

    "Somewhere in Time" (Christopher Reeve and Jane Seymour)- Those that have seen this little gem know what I'm talking about.
     
  6. The Human Stain.


    If y'all haven't seen this, I suggest that you do. Great film.

    You must be a real joy to go to the movies with:

    Just sitting up there in the front row, screaming at the screen.




    "It's not real people, it's not real! Leonardo DiCaprio wasn't on The Titanic, Russell Crowe is NOT a Gladiator............Brad Pitt is dreamy as hell, but his representation of Achilles in Troy is a false interpretation of a character as it is set forth in Homer's epic masterpiece!"

    Gridlock'd- with Tim Roth and Tupac. Hilarious movie.

    Summer Of Sam- Excellent imo.

    Sorcerer- a classic with the great Roy Scheider.

    Red Rock West- 'Neo-noir' with Nic Cage and Dennis Hopper.

    I don't go to those movies:nono:

    You have picked on just one aspect of why all of the above are shit films

    Tell me, did you think "The Quick And The Dead" was a good film?

    Nah, it was average. You're a dour motherfucker sometimes though. :nono:


    I'm not really a fan of Tombstone either. :lol:


    I thought Costner's, "Wyatt Earp" was a superior film in every way.

    I'm not trying to be dour though, I really dislike the things I say I dislike. No pretense.
