Great stuff.

Two movies I expected to see by now are Bucket List and Gran Torino. Those are close runner-ups in my top 5.

Poeman - Cuckoo's Nest was a great film. I also liked Jack in As Good As It Gets.

 

[bridge500t]

Animal House "What? Over? Did you say "over"? Nothing is over until we decide it is! Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor? Hell no!"

Blazing Saddles "Hey, where the white women at?"

Office Space "PC Load Letter'? What the f@ck does that mean?"

Monty Python Quest for the Holy Grail "I warned you, but did you listen to me? Oh, no, you knew, didn't you? Oh, it's just a harmless little bunny, isn't it?"

The Big Lebowski "They peed on my rug, man!"

 

[GIBSON67]

More good ones...

Animal House
Caddy Shack
Blues Bros
Crossraoads
No Country For Old Men
Fight Club
Me, Myself and Irene

There are just so freaking many...

 

[Far Rider]

I wanted to add one that many young folks here might not know. But it scared the hell out of a lot of us old guys:

The Day The Earth Stood Still.

I had nightmares for weeks.

 

[TwinACStacks]

Got to second The Day the Earth stood Still (the original)
Braveheart (rather high on my list being a Scot)
Godfather
Star Wars
Jaws
Goldfinger
Jurrasic Park

Oh, and of course, Grand Torino. Just for the line: "Get off my Lawn!"
TWIN

 

[mott555]

Star Wars (the originals)
Office Space
Spaceballs
Die Hard (1 and 2, I didn't care much for any after those)
Ghostbusters
Tommy Boy
Monty Python & The Holy Grail

 

[SonVolt]

There Will be Blood
No Country for Old Men
Pitch Perfect (No, really, it's hilarious!)

 

[The Ozzk]

My top 5 (hard question BTW)

* The Shawshank redemption (many powerful scenes, but Morgan Freeman's narrative on the rooftop scene has to be one of the finest moments in movie history)
The Shawshank Redemption - Rooftop Scene - YouTube

* Godfather (it just takes me to some other time and place)

* The Fight Club (tells you the hard truth about yourself)

* The Matrix (the influence of this movie in pop culture is so vast that most people haven't realized it yet)

* Scarface (Who doesn't like a pissed off cuban laying down the law in the land of excess that was the Miami of the 70's?)

 

[rocknblues]

Full Metal Jacket and Saving Private Ryan. I'm really suprised these two greats haven't shown up. I'd watch them both once a year.

 

[The Ozzk]

In my top 10 for sure. Bad ass!

 

[rocknblues]

That pic of Eastwood sums up all that my Father-in-Law represents. He was Fire Chief for a large Airport authority and a regular bad-ass who wouldn't take crap, and would bring home an orphaned kitten. I greatly respect that man. It's a crying shame he is at stage 4 cancer. Breaks my heart to no end.

 

[Feeling Supersonic]

I'd meet up with you all and have a Marshall Forum backstage movie night, with popcorn and everything.

No mods invited except crossroads, and Marty would be banned from the event.

Damn right!

I had nightmares for weeks.

I thought of that and War of the Worlds too.

 

[poeman33]

Holy crap...two pages and not one of us have mentioned Spinal Tap yet? It has to be number two on my list. (sorry if it was mentioned and I missed it)

 

[SonVolt]

Saving Private Ryan. I'm really suprised these two greats haven't shown up.

It showed up twice, in the first two posts

 

[EL 34]

speaking of eastwood, how could i forget his greatest movie, unforgiven.

no country for old men was great but the ending was abrupt and left open....for a sequel!

 

[SonVolt]

en was great but the ending was abrupt and left open....for a sequel!

The ending made perfect sense. No one's going to make a sequel to a Cormac McCarthy book that doesn't exist. That would be like making "Lord of the Flies" Part II.

 

[EL 34]

traditional move endings have real endings. that ending of no country was him surviving a car accident. how is that an ending?
