Donnie Darko - recently watched it and thought you might like it. Don�t search for much info before you watch it, it�s better that way I think for most movies, but especially for movies like that...

[ReAktor]

Hmm, these movies are my favorites:

the experiment (Das Experiment)
Alien
Donnie Darko
The andromeda strain
run lola run
princess mononoke
lost in space
logans run
tron
1984

Well, looks like I am addicted to old sci-fi movies... I love Jack Arnold movies as well I think I have watched "The creature from the black lagune" more than a dozend times at the theater and much more often at home... Have you ever seen "It came from outer space" in 3D?
And, yes, and those old movies with Vincent Price (House of Usher)... I can't get enough of them.

There are tons of classics that I didn't mention because they're old... for some reason I'm not into old movies..but they're still good..

Citizen Kane (said to be one of the greatest films in the history of films?)
7 Samurai
1984 (Even a better book *definitely should read!*)

Legend (with tom cruise, i've only seen the last part of it..but it looks cool)

I really want to see, Adaptation. That looks like a really good movie.
Do you guys know anything about Gummo? Its done by the same people as Kids...

there's some great lists... Keep them coming

[atomicmonkey]

Gummo eh? My friend owns it (he's likes weird movies), and personally, I think it's a piece of trash. Very odd, disurbing at times, I dunno, I just didn't enjoy it. Wasn't the 'good' kind of disturbing like Requiem For A Dream is, either. They kill cats in it, maybe that's why I didn't like it.

Some of my favorites:

The Princess Bride (didn't see it mentioned, probably my most favorite of all time)
Goodfellas
Casino
Batman
The Shawshank Redemption
Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back
The Shining
Edward Scissorhands
Jurassic Park
Dumb And Dumber
Rushmore

Just some, a lot were mentioned already

[J Bradford]

Most recent favorites;

Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas
The Big Lebowski
Trainspotting

[soogarrush]

most have already been mentioned

the shawshank redemption
braveheart
princess mononoke
seven samurai
forest gump
gladiator
blackhawk down was pretty good too

i just watched "battle royale"...that was good..in its own way. recommended?

[Mitz]

YES! Shawshank Redemption, that's another excellent movie.
I think Gummo is similar to Kids then, just because its so messed up and it really doesn't make too much sense. I guess that's why its kind of intriguing. It's just a world that we're not familiar with.

The Negotiator (Samuel L. Jackson and Kevin Spacey)
The Professional (Natalie Portman and Gary Coleman)

Those are two good movies people wouldn't consider "high class" films but they're still really good.

For those who like Princess Mononoke, there's Spirited Away (VERY CRAZY)
and Totoro (family movie). totoro's awesome.

[Matthew]

Dunno if you brough it up here but I think that

*Postman

was a really good movie with Kevin Costner.

[Max]

The Good, The Bad and The Ugly
Once Upon a Time in the West
The Magnificent Seven
A Fistful of Dollars
For A Few Dollars More

[Mitz]

Max, could you put a short description on those movies? I've never heard of any of those.

[Matthew]

Have you not heard of them?
They are Cowboy movies with Clint Eastwood, very good.

Clint ruled then and rule now.

[Max]

Man, these are the best western movies ever!!!!

Wow! Cool links Max.

[Mitz]

Oh right, westerns.. I don't think i've actually seen any tuly western movies. The closest one is.....like Wild Wild West..haha.
The western thing reminds me... gangster movies!
Last Man Standing with Buce Willis is good. Man does he ever get his ass kicked.

[Sumaleth]

If you liked Citizen Kane, then:

. Casablanca
. Chinatown

My two fave westerns:

. Unforgiven (amazing)
. The Outlaw Josey Wales

Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, while not a traditional western, was a lot of fun too.

To those who liked Vanilla Sky:

It's just a remake of the spanish film "Abre los ojos", which was much better (like most of the films that remakes are made from).

[Effigy]

Taxi Driver
Raging Bull
Pulp Fiction
Castaway
The Seventh Seal
Rainman (not that high on my list, but still good)
The Hustler & Color of Money

LEOLO: A canadian film about a really interesting boy ("Because I dream, I am not crazy. Because I dream, I am not"). My all times favourite. Great sound track too.

BREAKING THE WAVES: Dogma. Great great movie. Lars von Triers.

THE RED THIN LINE: War at Guadalcanal/Solomon Islands. The poetry of desperation in war.
