Sexy Beast - Because it's the only UK gangster flick that matters since The Long Good Friday
Withnail & I - It's one the best written comedies ever, and improves with repeated viewings.
Natural Born Killers - An art film disguised as a stupid Hollywood blockbuster.
The Princess Bride - Funny, witty, clever and nice.
Heathers - Nasty, funny, dark and gleefully black hearted
Pump Up The Volume - See above reasons
City of Lost Children - A magical, surreal, perfect sci-fi/comedy/romance/horror movie. In French, but don't let that be the reason you never see this.
Spinal Tap - Rock and Roll mockumentary so funny it hurts.

that's it for now, I must try to sleep
It cost me £26.99 from Amazon, but it was worth it!
:)
The 9 hours version!
It's a quality period Japanese film. About this English guy getting stranded in Japan with some of his ship mates!
You should check it out. Or read the book! Shogun by James Clavell.
:)
I saw this and thought it was ok. Not brilliant, just ok. It was stunning until the last 10 mins, when the scriptwriter just had a nice big plot-w*** and spoilt it.
I just wanted to know who did the wife and why.
Instead? "It wasn't even anyone, you're just mental! No, I'm lying actually, it was me. No, it was you, but you forgot. Did you forgot that I'm a cop? Except you do my dirty work, but you don't actually, beacuse you just forgot"
Bah, take you surprise endings and shove 'em somewhere warm.
Mike from Neighbours was exceptional though.
Memento - ruddy brilliant thriller with Mike from Neighbours and Joe Pantoliano.
Swingers - hilarious comedy with Vince Vaughn and Jon Favreau. 'You're money baby, you're so money and you don't even know it'.
Way of the Gun - bloody gun movie with Ryan Philippe and the best actor ever, Benicio Del Toro. 'I'll come over there and funstart your head.'
American Beauty - a film you have to see, simply for the best performance of the century from Kevin Spacey (except, perhaps, for his performance in Seven).
Cube -my head hurts.
That should do for now.
Animal House: The film that spawned a million others, this is the sort of thing they based films like American Pie and Road Trip on, damn funny film,
Porkys: Hillarious film, think American Pie with more nudity and even ruder humour.
So much so, that I am going to become a one man Amores Perros publicity machine.
Vottanator has "Heat"
Stryke has "Dogma"
and me, "They call Mr. Amores Perros Happy" (or should that be "They call me Mr. Tibbs!"
On a side note that is one of the great things about having a film buff English teacher I got to do the major piece of my English GCSE coursework on a film, "In the Heat of the Night"... another good film but avoid the follow ups.
"Permission to shake the hand of the daughter of the bravest man I've ever met."
2 - Titanic - Just kidding!
3 - Dragonheart - Possibly one of the most underestimated films ever. Great Dark Ages flick, and Sean Connery is a dragon. Superb.
4 - Armageddeon - Again, I'm having you on.
5 - Heat - You want to see the best police film ever, this is it. The pitched gunfight down a raod is a must-see. There you go Ross, I admit it. Heat rules. ;-)
