Prog movies?
The Life Aquatic
Shaun of The Dead
Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas
Clerks
Snatch
Resivior Dogs
but personally, I think, intelligent people like progheads should like
any movie that they can appreciate not only for entertainment value,
but for other qualities as well. Which is why we love prog.

never seen a Kubrick Film, although i problably will when i have some free time. You know, rent a couple movies, invite my intellinget-movies friend, maybe a girl, and really melt my mind
THE Greatest movies ever (if you are me):
Memento
The Godfather
THE Others
Pulp Fiction
Being John Malcovich
Eternal Sunshine OF The Spotless Mind
Ahhh, hard of the top of my head

OMG !! How could I forget "Mulholland Drive"? - Sheer Brilliance
Had to watch it twice before I really began to understand what it was about. The same with "Blue Velvet" - whoa - David Lynch makes some real mind bending films. Just the thing for intellectual discussions of what it all means...

If you guys are into Kubrick, you should try out two of his earlier films, 'Paths of Glory' and 'The Killing'... both brilliantly executed and make far more sense than '2001 A Space Progessy!'
For me, The Conversation, Taxi driver, Once Upon A Time In America, Goodfellas, The Godfather I & II, Unforgiven, French Connection & Chinatown represent some of the greatest cinematic experiences to come out of post 1970 America... well, you did ask... Films are something I could talk about all night long!!!

I mentioned them. Read my post.
I just thought of another one, The Magic Christian, starring Ringo Starr and Peter Sellers. |
Oh yeah, sorry, I didn't notice .

You aren't! They're great.
I love the"Not being seen"-sketch, and the Italian lesson, the "Cheese Shop" and......(ok, stop )
And their running gags, lovely
But, do you know "Fawlty Towers"? A great comedy-series!
Ok, the films: For me Kubrick is the greatest director. Dr. Strangelove is my favourite of him
and "The Godfather" (Coppola) is also great
