What Movies Should I Watch?

[Cheery Lunatic]

GO WATCH INCEPTION IN THE THEATER. NOW.

The Lookout. Very clever script and fabulous acting.

Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. This used to be a household title, but for some reason not as many people are familiar with it anymore. Awesome kung fu movie.

Apocalypto. Good, "manly" movie. Extremely interesting premise too. Takes place before the end of the Mayan civilization. It's actually supposed to be pretty accurate as far as historically based movies go. Doesn't romanticize much.

 

[Wait...What]

Here is a few you might like:

Goodfellas
The Usual Suspects
Memento
Léon (The Professional)
Heat
Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels
Brick

I seem to be one of the few people who preferred 'Snatch' to Lock stock, its just Brad Pitt

YES, Inception was amazing and of course i saw it in the theatre

Not much of a fan of the crouching tigger hidden dragon stuff, the whole flying stuff just bored me, not for me. If i have to watch Martial arts id rather it be realistic, aka slugfests.

I'll look out for the other 2.

"The Departed" and guy movies like "Rocky?"

Well, I'm going to assume you've seen all the "Rocky" movies. Every Rocky fan needs to see them all once. Other Stallone favorites of mine are "First Blood," "Judge Dredd," and "Demolition Man."

"Goodfellas" is, possibly, the greatest gangster movie of all time. So if you like "The Departed," I'd reccomend it.

"Cool Hand Luke," "Fight Club," and "Tombstone" are definitely movies for guys, but I don't think I'd call them standard guy ficks. Still, I suggest you check them out.

What else..? Well, you like action movies. How about some Kung Fu? My favorites are "Fists of Fury," "Enter the Dragon," "Legend of Drunken Master Part 2," and "Challenge of the Masters." You can't go wrong with pretty much anything by Shaw Brothers, though.

The Crow (1994).
If you haven't seen this film, rectify that NOW.

If you're willing to venture out of the house, I suggest you go see Inception--if you haven't already.

EDIT: My apologies, didn't check the earlier post which clearly says that you've already watched Inception.

Army of Darkness is almost just as badass.

 

[The Amazing Tea Alligator]

Hitchikers Guide to the Galaxy

Mos Def as Ford Prefect... just... God. Damnit. Why.

 

[Julianking93]

Go see Oldboy.

Now.

And Girl With the Dragon Tattoo.

DO EETT!

 

[twistedmic]

Unforgiven and Appaloosa are both excellent westerns. Aliens, Predator (1 and 2) Terminator (also 1 and 2) and of course the original Star Wars trilogy are good choices for sci-fi. And if you like dark/black comedies you need to check out Death Becomes Her, Death to Smoochie, 8 Heads in a Duffel bag, Shaun of the Dead, Rock'n' Rolla, Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrels, Snatch and The Whole Nine Yards.

They're both great. And I have to give props to Brad in Snatch too, for putting on a pretty decent attempt at an Irish accent.

My father, who is happy enough never to venture out of British cinema. didn't realise it was Brad Pitt and thought it was just some Random irish guy.

Lucky Number Slevin, Fanboys, Daybreakers, In Bruges, Shoot 'Em Up, She's Out of My League, and Snatch all come to my mind.

Obligatory Debbie does Dallas suggestion

Not a movie but you should watch Band of Brothers if you haven't already. If you have already seen it....watch it again! It's awesome and a great time killer (ten episodes which are roughly an hour long).

Movies
Lucky Number Slevin
Taken
Road to Perdition
16 Blocks
Smokin' Aces
Platoon
Full Metal Jacket
Good Morning Vietnam
Gran Torino
The Italian Job (the good one!)
Fight Club
Matrix
Saving Private Ryan

Should keep you going for a while.

 

[TheYellowCellPhone]

Forrest Gump.

If you haven't watched it, you're missing out.
