Cool list. But in what order?

Listing one or two Lynch movies makes you look smart..

Listing them all especially with Mulholland Drive listed makes you look like you're trying to look smart. :)


PS. I don't know what movies to list in this thread. You said old and posted one from 68 and one from 2001. So it's just the "Movies that haven't not been out yet" list.


Anyways, hmm old.

Clockwork Orange
Taxi Driver
Godfather
Full Metal Jacket
Blue Velvet


In no particular order.

1. Caddyshack (how can this one not have been mentioned yet!!!!!)

2. Smokey in the Bandit #1... 2 and 3 sucked my ass

3. Spies Like Us

4. Godfather

5. Strange Brew

Congrats on advertising the fact you're one of those pretentious jackasses that would look for the "deeper meaning" in a piece of dog shit.:1orglaugh :1orglaugh

I can hear David Lynch laughing at you for buying into the random vomit he throws up on the screen while counting his piles money from here.

Braveheart
Full Metal Jacket
Seven
Forest Gump
Alien

Runners up:

The Thing (Carpenter's remake)
Terminator
Rambo
The Abyss (ending sucked, tho)
The Great Waldo Pepper

The Warriors (1979)
The Wanderers (1979)
Heavy Metal (1981)
Bridge on the river Kwai (1957)
The Hunchback of Notre Dame (1939)

GoodFellas
A Christmas Story
Gentlemen Prefer Blondes
Fast Times at Ridgemont High
Top Gun

Ok, so some are REAL Oldies, the others were popular when I was in middle school.

Lynch isn't for everyone but accusing fans of liking him because they want to be perceived as "deep" is a bit of a stretch don't you think?

Blue Velvet, Mullholland Drive, etc. aren't deep; they're offbeat and open to interpretation; they're films made by a guy with a unique eye and distinctive style.

That's it. And what's wrong with that? He directs movies he wants to make, and he pays the price--shit box office receipts.

At its base, filmmaking is an art form. If you can get a studio to bankroll a project without a linear narrative and marginal mass market appeal, more power to you.

The Abyss (keep your pantyhose on)
Alien (all of them)
Conair (put the bunny back in the box!! ) (he's got the whole world in his hands)
Star is Born (go barbara)
Pelican Brief and Sleeping with the Enemy (both intense)

Chick Flicks .. Pretty Woman and Moulin Rouge are must sees.(mmmm Ewan McGregor)

Ok I gotta mention Flatliners and also a movie that Demi Moore did Seventh Sign or something like that. really good movies i think

Whatever happened to Baby Jane
Pink Flamingos
Full metal jacket
Taxi driver
The wiz
Easy riders
Sweetie

and the list could go on

Flat liners?????? are you kidding?

OK... short list here.. best movie that no one ever mentions but can be in anyone's top 5.

Shawshank Redemption

I easily watch it 10 times per year if not more.... love this movie.

Blazing Saddles
Caddyshack
American Pie (all of them)
Up in Smoke
Terminator (all of them)
