I was thinking about adding to my movie collection. And I know there is a thread somewhere, but I didn't want to look for it. So when you see a movie that is good; or want to tell others about one you think few know about and many should know about; let us know here. Unless this is just a stupid idea of course.

Pool Hall Junkies

This movie is great. How do I know? Because I was tired as fuck and falling asleep when my friend had me watch it and after the first 5 minutes I was fully awake, paying attention to the movie.

This movie will make you wish you were good at pool. It's got a good story and solid acting. Not to mention Christopher Walken. I highly recommend this movie.

tonguegina · 01-28-2005, 01:37 AM

I remember wanting to see that when it came out, ninja. I'll add it to my list.

You should check out Four Rooms. It's about a hotel bell-hop's first night on the job. It just happens to be New Years, and he's having to deal with all these problems in four different rooms. Each room is directed by a different person (one room is done by Quentin Tarentino) and about a shit load of well known actors are in it, too.

No Surprises here (since it is my avatar and all). I recommend Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas

The Hunter S Thompson classic about the death of an era. If your definition of a good movie is one that somehow manages to stick with you for some reason or another for a time after watching it (a good definition in my opinion), then Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas is a great movie.

Bill Murray's newest movie The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou is pretty funny and sincere, in my opinion.

Niger Angelus · 01-29-2005, 04:24 AM

Has anyone seen 'Sideways' yet?

ninjaface · 01-29-2005, 05:08 AM

Never heard of it...

Equilibrium is my next Movie of the Moment. I am pretty sure very few Nubblites have seen this movie. The reason? It was far overshadowed by one of the Matrix movies. And since, in this movie, there is similar clothing as in the Matrix, anyone who saw any previews for it said fuck that movie, lets watch the Matrix. The main character is Christian Bale, of American Psycho fame. I highly recommend this movie. It's on my list of movies to buy.

Niger Angelus · 01-29-2005, 05:12 AM

I own it. It is awesome how they adapt hand to hand combat to gun-fighting. I like it better than the Matrix for its simularities to Brave New World, Farenheit 451, and 1984.

Ugly Bastard · 01-29-2005, 05:12 AM

Sideways was nominated for Best Picture, ninjaface. Hear about it.

I think everyone should make time in their schedule, and empty their wallets a little bit for Million Dollar Baby. I highly doubt anyone of you reading this could watch that movie and come back to me saying you didn't at least like it a little. It's incredible.

Little Big Man starring Dustin Hoffman. One of his earlier movies.

Plot: Jack Crabb(Hoffman), tells of his life being raised by Indians and fighting with General Custer.

Highly recommended by me... and my dad would also recommend it. Go rent it.

Niger Angelus · 04-07-2005, 03:49 AM

Spanglish
I have to say, I didn't like how they ended it though.

Niger Angelus · 05-04-2005, 08:21 PM

Head in the Clouds
Movie based in the early part of the century mostly in Paris and during the time of WWII. A story of three friends and their fates.

Niger Angelus · 10-13-2005, 01:55 AM

The Jacket. Its good.

This movie is a modern interpretation of Fahrenheit 451. I like it, but it does lack the character and feeling the Matrix captures so brilliantly.

theMerciless1 · 10-14-2005, 11:00 PM

sideways was funny. very funny if you're into wine.

watch wall street, michael douglas am pimp.

Niger Angelus · 10-15-2005, 03:41 AM

If you liked Wall Street you may like Boiler Room.

SittinOnDubsWGW · 10-15-2005, 11:43 AM

finally watched all of Fallen last night. It's a pretty quality movie.

St. Anky · 10-15-2005, 12:36 PM

Rounders
The Big Lebowski
The Way of The Gun

The latter being one of my favorite movies of all time.

theMerciless1 · 10-15-2005, 04:07 PM

i liked boiler room but it was no wall street.
the deleted scenes ruled.

SittinOnDubsWGW · 10-15-2005, 04:15 PM

The way of the gun is up there on my list of movies as well.

ProfessorNumber · 10-15-2005, 05:48 PM

The Crow, starring Brandon Lee. This movie is beyond awesome. The effects aren't perfect. The plot isn't entirely original. Despite this, it is my all time favorite movie.

After watching I went on the internet to see if there were any sequels (which there are, but apparently suck). Anyway, while reading a website, I found out something that's really crazy and eerie. The main actor, Brandon Lee, was hit by a piece of a malfunctioning blank round from a real gun. You actually see him die in the movie. It's in the last couple minutes when he's in the church. You see him appear to get hit, and he says "Oh... Shit.". And he's dead.

Regardless, watch this movie if you have any sense at all.

the crow 4 is so bad is is good. it has tara reid, edward furlong, david boreanez, and tito ortiz in it to name a few.

Carnivorous Flavor · 10-15-2005, 11:58 PM

the crow sucked....and yes he was killed during the filming...then they rewrote the story to make the footage they had work...lots of computer animation and bad camera angles fill in the blanks.

the story of Brandon being killed is crazy, Totally stupid and someone should have gone to jail.

Schroeder · 10-16-2005, 12:55 AM

Check out the 1972 movie "The Warriors". It features some great individual scenes and just terrific dialogue for the most part. A cult classic if there ever was one. See it now so you understand what's going on as Rockstar is releasing a game based on the movie on Tuesday.
