Recommend me some GOOD movies

[Datajack Franit]

Lola runs is a great movie! And I thought all a german could make were krautz und frankfurters!

I'd suggest American Beauty, some 50's italian movies (those ones with undressed roman women ) and the old classics of Marlene... aaah

[Switch]

If you want comedy, then Monty Python is a good choice.
For generally good movies, The Godfather Trilogy, Metropolis (The Anime version....haven't seen the original), A Beautiful Mind.....that's it off the top of my head that hasn't already been said.

And I would also like to second LotR Extended edition.....though there I would actually suggest buying it......although you would've anyway.....

One of my favorite 80's movies is Faris Bueller's Day Off. Damn, his girlfriend was hot.

I'm Gonna Git You Sucka

Rustler's Rhapsody

ACK!

[Ari Rahikkala]

I'll give a big to The Boondock Saints. A lot of coolness there, especially if you haven't seen a million films about vigilante justice already (I hadn't when I watched it first time... and still haven't). Fight Club is nice, too. Stay away from the Indiana Jones crap - I can't understand how those films are classics. If you're going to watch Ghost in the Shell, do not get the dubbed version. Especially the ending of the film is so brutally flattened by the voice acting that it's almost funny.

[Frozzy]

I haven't seen it yet, but I'm borring my friends DVD of Val Kilmer. He says its pretty good. Suppose I better check it out first though, eh.
