Gotcha, The Villain, The Princess Bride, the Monty Python movies, Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure, Ferris Bueller's Day Off, the uncut version of Caligula, and every Jimmy Stewart movie except "It's a Wonderful Life." Don't care for that one. I prefer The Man Who Knew Too Much, Rear Window, or Vertigo.

Monty Python's the Meaning of life. And so for something completely different...

1

Red, Red 2, any of the Bob Hope Road movies, A Christmas Story, The Princess Bride

I love the Red, Red 2 characters!!!!! Are you here to kill me?

I've lost count of the number of times I've watched "Back To The Future" and "The Matrix." Also, I really enjoy "Planes, Trains, and Automobiles."

2

The recent classics (Gladiator, The Matrix, Alien/s, Master Commander) definitely.

For more recent films:
1: Ex Machina,
2: Contagion,
3: Spotlight (so good! It was all in the story telling, acting, cinematography, directorship, etc. The best thing is it had minimal use of music - which is used a lot of times to control/dictate your feelings.),
4: Interstellar (I like how this movie interprets our current understanding of space-time into a narrative.)

I'm a bit of a movie buff. There's quite a few others I can re-watch over and over.

Oh yes, Master and Commander is brilliant. I started reading the books, which are great, too.

@Pmabz Yeah. I started reading them about 10 years ago after seeing the movie. Although fiction, History Buffs YouTube channel reviewed the movie for its historical accuracy. Good viewing (as is usual with his other movie reviews).

Year One! Jack Black at his best.

Cousins, Muriel's Wedding, A Christmas Story, Bridesmaids, A Ghost Story, Ferris Bueller's Day Off, The Exercist........too many movies to count!

I got plenty... from... Searching for Sugar Man. 300: Rise of an Empire. The Big Lebowski. Elizabeth & Elizabeth: The golden era. Sunset Boulevard. Chicago. Woodstock. Dracula. Wolf. The Usual Suspects. The Godfather. Depends of the mood I am in. I am more into a scene on every movie.

Slaughterhouse-Five, a 1972 movie based on Kurt Vonnegut's book of the same name. Vonnegut said of the movie:

"I love George Roy Hill and Universal Pictures, who made a flawless translation of my novel Slaughterhouse-Five to the silver screen ... I drool and cackle every time I watch that film, because it is so harmonious with what I felt when I wrote the book."

I really can't say how many times I have watched Pride and Prejudice and Silver Linings Playbook and who can forget Harry Potter ????

Anything Stanley Kubrick or David Lynch. Also: Fight Club, Gone Girl, Shutter Island, Memento, Ed Wood, The Big Lebowski, Drive, Jurassic Park, Monty Python and the Holy Grail.

Nice list.

Amelie, My Life As A Dog, Let The Right One In, We Are The Best!, Nosferatu, Delicatessen - six films I've watched possibly hundreds of times and will watch again and again!

(Also Peter Greenaway's films; A Field In England; Cronos; Les Triplettes de Belleville; Chasing Legends; Jean de Florette and Manon des Sources; the Trzy Kolory series; F.W. Murnau's version of Faust and Jan Švankmajer's version of Faust; everything else Švankmajer has made; Shane Meadows' films... I could be here listing them all for days...)

@Dida I'm surprised you haven't heard of Amelie and Nosferatu, which are both very famous films. The rest are a little less well-known, but highly recommended - especially My Life As A Dog which, in my opinion, is the most perfect film every made.

@Dida That's definitely something else!

Dune

Never saw the movie but I loved the books

@Fibonacci1618 oh man you have to see the sandworm!
And listen to the song by Eon that was sampled from it! Spice!

@Qualia Sounds like you're right. I'm gonna have to find it this weekend then. Thanks for the recommendation and the reminder of a great book. I'll let you know how it turns out if I find it.

@Fibonacci1618 Yes please do!
I'm remiss in having not read the book 😟
But here, there is even a kitty shai hulud in this vid LOL

I have this on cd LOL We used to play the crud out of Eon in my day, way back when. 🙂

@Qualia oh man!! You're a rockstar for that !! Just awesome ! Lol ! Talk about intense !! Gotta love the cymatics !

@Fibonacci1618 LOL ☺?
They used to play this at OHMs in Austin... good times!

@Qualia I could see this being a huge hit at the Underground Raves of the time. Houston had warehouses host them. I'm sure I've heard it before but I definitely never saw the vid. Thanks for that!

@Fibonacci1618 Eon did some fantastic stuff too besides this one. You had to be an athlete to keep up with it!
These were the days!

@Qualia Athlete, lol ! Or on "Sports Enhancement " Drugs

I know David Lynch has really hard feelings about how the studio system treated him with "Dune", but there is some really good stuff in the movie. I'm a huge Lynch fan... If anyone hasn't seen the "Twin Peaks: The Return", I'd recommend it also...if you are a Lynch fan.

@Fibonacci1618 idk about the sports enhancement drugs but was known to take a hit of acid here and there. Altho I was a gym rat at the time so naturally on the ceiling .

@Qualia LOL! I was referring to acid, hence the quotation marks! I was trying to be witty by playing off of your comment to needing to be fit to keep up with the beats

Now I have to go back and add "Dune" to my list.

Usual Suspects

@Kattywampus69 For sure ! I know Kevin has always got his credit for his role but Benicio Del Toro was amazing in this flick !

@Kattywampus69 One of the most underappreciated elements, for sure. Dry and weird.... kinda my favorite type of comedy

@Kattywampus69 I don't know.... Dark comedy to me usually has more of a sinister intent, like the undertones of "Natural Born Killers"

@Kattywampus69 Of course I do, but the comedy didn't spin off of it. The comedy was more charismatic and played off of the eccentricities of the characters more than their intent. IMHO

@Kattywampus69 oh blah blah blah... I enjoyed the exchange. Have a good evening
