Lots of great flicks on this list, seems everybody has different tastes. I am going today to buy 300 and Pathfinder @ best-buy later. About 60% of what's on this list I own lol. On another note I can't beleive I forgot to put O Brother Where Art Thou, and Dances With Wolves on my list.

Monty Python ( esp The Holy Grail)
Cheech and Chong ( all)
Full Metal Jacket
Monsoon Wedding

The Caine Mutiny with Humphrey Bogart as the "mixed up" captain of the ship.
Spoiled tho' by the apologetics at the end.

Just watched a re make and the actor who played Bogart's role just couldn't quite "do it " the way Humph did.




thompsonx -> RE: Great Movies Of Our Time (7/31/2007 2:34:29 PM)

Rocky Horror Picture Show
Johnny Got His Gun
Yojimbo
Monty Python and The Search For The Holy Grail
Freda
Satirycon

I keep forgetting about all of these other great movies, Jeremiah Johnson is one of the greatest westerns of all time. I can't say I much cared for the Cheech & Chong movies. Dare I say just about anything Stephen King has ever written, directed, and produced has been badass? I really liked Maximum Overdrive. But I think they could have done alot better with it.




RosaB -> RE: Great Movies Of Our Time (7/31/2007 5:20:57 PM)

Some of my favorite Scare movies, I've enjoyed, not already mentioned
