[maniac]

Some Like It Hot

Definitely! I'm doing a review right now of that, but a stage version just called 'Sugar'. I love that film too! ^.^

[Skynetmain]

Awesome lists everyone, but you are all missing the most important one.

Clerks

Without that movie, Dogma would not exist and Kevin Smith would be unknown.

Aside from that, I have very few to offer.

Serenity (Love Firefly)
Mallrats (Either you love it or hate it)
Star Trek: Generations (Kirk and Picard! What more do you need?)
Ghost Dog (I think that is the name. Mafia hitman living by bushido)
Clue (Based on the board game. Tim Curry & Michael McKean are great)
Stargate (Good clean sci-fi with a splash of Egyptology
Dune (Giant sand worms. Great story.)
Blade Runner (Human cop vs android criminals. Is Harrison Ford really a robot?)
Tron (Disney classic. The Matrix back before Atari even existed)

PS: Two things: 1- Star Wars should not be on anyone's list unless you are telling that to someone who was stuck in a cave on Mars for the past 40 yr. 2- Thank you to everyone who put Goonies on their list. That is one of the funnest movies out there and a fave of my family.

[Hil]

More! More!

-The Jerk (1979 film with Steve Martin, probably his best/funniest. It's R, but nowadays, it would probably be PG-13)

-Titanic (I'm sure EVERYONE has seen it though)

-Thirteen (Probably my favorite movie. It's an indie film which is why you may not have heard of it, and it's R because it's very dark and dramatic, but I seriously think everyone should see this, especially teen girls)

-Garden State

-The Notebook (I love chick flicks )

-Anchorman (Will Ferell is great, but Steve Carell is probably the funniest in this movie)

-October Sky

-Simon Birch

-This is Spinal Tap (Sort of old, but good. )

[Igg]

Terminator

Seriously? Terminator? It's the worst film Arnie's in, because he doesn't get enough lines to tip it over from 'pony' to 'hilarious'.

[Hil]

Terminator

Seriously? Terminator? It's the worst film Arnie's in, because he doesn't get enough lines to tip it over from 'pony' to 'hilarious'.

Worst film he was in? You mean he had good films?

Well, take True Lies for example. An awful, awful film, this is true, but it's so awful that it's incredibly funny, and Arnie Gold.

[Electric Dj]

You're saying terminator is rubbish?!?!?!?!?!? Oh my god, it has to be one of the all time greats, terminator 2 is even better. It's so good it's unbelievable. Oh and by the way what is thirteen about because I remember seeing a film on a film review show and I can't remember whether it was called thirteen or not?

[Dominique]

Any Quentin Tarentino Movie.
He just has such a good direction in knowing what to film
