[QUOTE=Warriorx4;15433370]The Thin Red Line[/QUOTE]
I hated this movie. I fell asleep.
The Talented Mr. Ripley is a good one if you like movies like American Psycho.
Unbreakable mutha' fucka'.
[QUOTE=Munchiselleh;15442289]
and if you can watch Six Feet Under, because it's the best show i've ever seen all the way through.[/QUOTE]
That. I'm just starting season 5, it's a fucking crazy show, but worth watching. Just a note, don't expect to take Dexter as seriously after watching it.
Never seen Arrested Development, might get it to watch seeing the shows I do watch aren't on yet (Dexter, House)
The Godfather, The Godfather II
Pulp Fiction
Reservoir Dogs
In Bruges
Ocean's 11, Ocean's 12, and Ocean's 13
Lucky Number Slevin
The Departed
All very good.
How about a powerful anime like "Grave of the Fireflies". Normally I hate animes but this movie is incredible, entertaining, and very haunting. Or if you want some awesome and funny action watch my favorite guilty pleasure the "Fifth Element."
Fireflies;

Stardust (If you're into movies like that)
Stargate
Memento (If you like mindfuck)
Casablanca
I just saw The Hangover. Everyone needs to see it asap. It was so fucking good. I haven't laughed that hard in ages.
Citizen Kane.

Is a very overhyped movie with extremely good effects.
Movies aren't made by effects, the acting in that wasn't exactly the best, and it could have been much better.
It's pathetic that it's so highly ranked on IMDB, it made me stop going there for opinions combined with how horrid and non thought out the discussion boards are.
That's right, rate me down because you think that it's the most amazing movie ever made.
One of my personally favorite movies, it contains deep philosophy and a brilliant execution of it with a mixture of other pleasant things to understand and look at: [IMG]http://socioblogsg.files.wordpress.com/2007/03/brazil.jpg[/IMG]

Is there an ETA on a dvd release? The theatres around here are so crazy about what they show, they claim that the movies need to attract the older audience because the older community here is larger then the younger one. Even though there's [B]NEVER[/B] anybody over 25 at the movies unless they took their kid.

It is one of the most amazing movie. The atmosphere, music, and acting is very well matched. Epically with the performance of Heath Ledger.
[url=http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0446687/]Driving Lessons[/url] is a pretty excellent movie. Some solid acting by Rupert Grint.. I'm not a huge fan Evie Walters (The actress' performance of her seems a bit spotty), but the section with Bryon is some excellent acting.
EDIT: The Hangover was also hilarious, easily the best movie so far this year. My sides still ache from laughing so hard. "THERE'S A FUCKING TIGER IN THE BATHROOM!"

I have no idea, but I'm buying it as soon as it comes out. And I [I]rarely[/I] buy movies. Usually just rent them.
