a brief visit from birdmad *The Godfather ( I & II )

*Pulp Fiction

*2001: a space odyssey

*Hellraiser ( I & II )

*El Mariachi

*Fast Times at Ridgemont High

*The Hunger

*Casablanca

*Sabrina (the remake was nice, but it doesn't have Audrey Hepburn)

*The Matrix

*Star Wars/ Empire Strikes Back (Jedi and Episode I lose points for overbearing attempts at being cute)

*Trainspotting

*Se7en

*Fight Club

*The Fly (1986)

*MacBeth (1971, Polanski directs)

*Trust (Hal Hartley, 1990)

*Cheech and Chong's Up in Smoke (who is this is?)

*Alien,Aliens,Alien Resurrection (blame the failure of Alien³ on the fifty million re-writes and not on david fincher's direction)

*Dark City

*The Crow ( I & III)
(again, blame a weak screenplay, tim pope's direction was not at fault for II)

*Wings of Desire / Faraway, So Close (later americanized as the syrupy, but stil palatable Nick Cage/Meg Ryan vehicle "City of Angels"

*Killing Time

*Run Lola Run

*Leaving Las Vegas

*Clerks/Mallrats/Chasing Amy/Dogma
(Kevin Smith's direction is a little uneven, but his knack for dialogue and interaction is top-notch, and he's got all those wonderful toys, nootch.)

*Who Framed Roger Rabbit

*Blade Runner

*The Nightmare Before Christmas

*Pee-Wee's Big Adventure

*A Touch of Evil

*The Exorcist
*Legion: Exorcist III (an underrated and genuinely creepy little flick)

*Gremlins

*Raiders of the Lost Ark

*Poltergeist

*John Carpenter's THE THING

*The entire John Hughes "Teen Angst" set (Breakfast Club, Pretty in Pink, Some Kind of Wnderful, Sixteen Candles and yes, even Weird Science)

*Near Dark (Farm boy falls in with traveling clan of white-trash vampires)

*One False Move (Bill Paxton, Billy Bob Thornton, Cynda Williams, nice little flick)

*The Terminator/T2

*(anything by david lynch)
Wild at Heart
Twin Peaks:Fire Walk With Me
Blue Velvet
Eraserhead
The Straight Story
-(a G-rated Lynch Movie, who would have guessed?)

*The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert ("and i thought they were small and wrinkled BEFORE they got in the water")

*Trick ("¿Como te gusta mi pinga?")

*The Prophecy (Christopher Walken as the Angel Gabriel gone bad, but where are the dirty centaurs?)

The Truth TOP TEN (or so)

1. The Matrix
2. Fight Club
3. Jurasic Park
4. The Prince of Egypt
5. Run Lola Run
5. Raiders of The Lost Ark (tie)
6. Ferris Beuller's Day Off
7. Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within
8. Spaceballs
9. Ghost in The Shell
10. Pay it Forward
10+1/2. All Quentin Tarantino movies, except Jackie Brown.

The movies: The Shining and 2001: A Space Odysee
are works of brilliant art that cannot allow a "top-ten" list to disgrace their significance. Both of these movies are symmetrically produced, and extremely well made. Watch the wide screen versions, make sure you have lots of tasty wheats (weed)!
Yum!

dB I think you can tell a lot about people from the kind of things they watch. My old flatmate for example, she used to watch Hugh Grant movies and all those inane "romantic comedys" and stuff, but if you gave her something like Run Lola Run, she'd go "How are you s'posed to watch it if you gotta read the words as well", or if you sit her in front of The Doors or Man on the Moon, she'd go "this is crap! I don't know what's happening!".
Needless to say she is a fool. Dumb, insecure and thinking give her a headache. To put it bluntly, she's like most people.
Kinda sad really.

requiem for a dream!
010806
...
The Truth requiem for a dream was sooo disturbing.
It was creative and original, but it left me feeling empty and sick afterwards. I had to watch another movie to get that taste out of my mind.

The graphical plot lines usually ascend until about 83% of the movie is complete, where it peaks and then slowly tapers off at the conclusion.

This movie, however, started at the peak, then spiraled downward in a dizzying tale of desparation and tragedy.

That's a mean thing to do to an audience.

The truth about Cats & Dogs has always been a favorite of mine
American History X... very disturbing
Legally Blonde is great entertainment... it looks stupid, but it's really great... even my dad, who hates lawyer movies, loved it
basically everything everyone else said plus a bunch of unworthy add-ins...

I'm also a sucker for the "Tammy" movies from back in the 50s/60s...

unhinged you got some good ones birdmad, run lola run, the nightmare before christmas....


i love the bourne movies because lola is in them. she is hot.

fight club has to be on the list AGAIN cause it's that good

lotr trilogy and damnit i am still waiting for the extended version before i buy return of the kind; i'm not falling into that evil merchandising plot

the butterfly effect (i was suspect because ashton kutcher is in it but it's a dark movie and the director's cut ending is way better; hollywood didn't want something as morbid as a fetus hanging itself in the womb with it's own umbilical cord so they made them change it to a less morbid not so bad but not so good ending)

green eggs and hamlet ( i was recently reminded of this movie cause of the hamlet debate that raged for a few days on blue)

memento

romeo + juliet

friday (as a 'ghetto' stoner, i can't help it....ha)

blow because johnny depp is hot

spun

(yeah most of the movies i own are about drugs. sorry about all the talk about people being hot; my hormones are raging. damn uterus)
