and Goodfellas.

Japanese Horror.

Easy Rider.

Softcore Vampire porn.

Trainspotting.

Phantasm.

Touch of Evil.

Wedding in Galilee.

Office Space.

Joe the King.

My favorite film changes every week....

For now, it's Blazing Saddles. Mel Brooks and Gene Wilder are geniuses.

  1. The Clockwork Orange: "For being a bastard with no manners, you haven't a dook of an idea how to comport yourself public-wise, O my brother!"  just brilliant
  2. The Godfather 1 and 2. The third one is also good, but not in the same level
  3. Blade Runner: Masterpiece
  4. The Shinning: "Here comes Johnny!!!!!"
  5. Full Metal Jacket: "Ya know, half of these gook whores are serving officers in the Viet Cong; the other half have got T.B. Be sure you only f**k the ones that cough.

As you can see I'm a Kubrik fan, seen his pictures so many times that I remember some quotes, had 'em in Super 8, VHS and DVD.

"If I'm gonna die for a word, my word is p**ntang."

BTW: anyone see the documentary Kubrick's daughter made during the making of The Shining? Hilarious...Shelly Duvall has a series of tantrums and breakdowns...

Run Lola Run..Good choice!

Also

2001

The Shining

Casablanca

Withnail & I

Blade Runner

LOTR (All parts)

Spinal Tap

Twin Town

The Company of wolves

Pulp Fiction

The most 'powerful' film I have ever seen, has dreadful special effects, grainy picture, and is terribly dated. It's Threads, a docu-drama about a nuclear attack on Britain in the early 80's. It's powerful, but not exactly entertainment.
