Has anyone here seen eXistenZ- the David Cronnenburg film about the future of gaming? He's one of my fav directors:)

Anyone have any fav films involving games, or the future of some sorts? Bladerunner rules:)

Robert De Niro is a classic actor! I agree some of his recent films have been a bit pants though.

Did you know, most of his parts in Casino and Goodfellas were unscripted? He just made it up as he went along.

Your a Robert De Niro fan! he's really good, I think he's let himself down, in films such as, 'The Fan' that stupid cartoon based film he was in. My favourite films have to be Resevoir Dogs and Pulp Fiction, along side Leon and Nikita. i think i'll have to get the DVD versions soon as they're wearing out.

Casino and Goodfellas are both in my top 5 best films ever!

Another classic from Snatch:

"Yeah Tyrone, what you doing?"

"It was at a funny angle"

Both look out the rear window.

"Tyrone, it's behind you. Things come from behind when you reverse."

I like it when Tommy talks to Turkish about his Caravan (start of the film)

"what's wrong with the caravan"?
(Tommy pulls off caravan door)

"nothing Turkish, it's tip, top"

but it's not as good as Lock Stock + 2 Smoking barrels.
bladerunners a good film, but my alltime favourite film has to be leon directed by Luc Besson, and starring Jean Reno, (French spy from Godzilla). Very good, Jean Reno plays an assassin who takes in a young girl after some currupt policemen kill her whole family for drugs. Nice family entertainment.

lol... ain't seen that yet! DOH!

If anyone was wondering why this isn't under the filma day thing, it's because I don't actually have a DVD- so on the off chance I win, then there is little point!

I think SNATCH is a classic film!

It's so damn funny! The bit where they rob the bookies is hilarious, along with when the dog eats the diamond.

"Go on Tony, look in the dog."

"What do you mean 'Look in the dog'!?"

"Well you know, open him up."

"Open him up? He's hardly a tin of f*****g beans Avi!"
