Troopr-Undr-Fir Posted October 30, 2004 Author Posted October 30, 2004 WOW! Now those are some lists fellas! Sadly a lot of the ones you all have mentioned I used to have... Until my mom made me leave them with her when I moved. She claimed they were "her's" I also made my no no list too short, but damn if I don't like some of the names on those lists. I guess I was fibbing a bit. Because my video collection isn't that small now that since I've seen all the movies you've all posted. Some I am going to buy when I get off work: - Blues Brothers (I heart this movie) - Full Metal Jacket - Rainman (Yeah, K-Mart sucks) - Citizen Kane (saw it in one of high school classes once... and it was pretty good) - Saving private Ryan Thank you all again, and sorry you got arthritis on my acount not really....

I could bore you with a long and painful story about parental ownership disputes but I wont mtfbwya I paid for most of them... I just assumed since they were in my room and I was the only one who watched them. I just let them go, or else I would have gotten a "Well, that's the thanks I get" speech... Oh how I loathed those
Captain Wilson Posted October 30, 2004 Posted October 30, 2004 Full Metal Jacket is an ace film, you will enjoy it. realy movies but the sharpe series. F'ing ace
Spider AL Posted October 30, 2004 Posted October 30, 2004 Three films to see before you die: Grosse Point Blank - John Cusack Spartan - Val Kilmer The Yakuza - Robert Mitchum/Takakura Ken Frankly the three best, most intelligent movies exported from America... Ever. Critics didn't seem to know what to make of the first two.

MarcusLeCoy Posted October 30, 2004 Posted October 30, 2004 Shanghai Knights series and if you REALLY want to actually think about what the hell is going on in the movie: K-Pax
Samuel Dravis Posted October 30, 2004 Posted October 30, 2004 Originally posted by MarcusLeCoy and if you REALLY want to actually think about what the hell is going on in the movie: K-Pax I liked that movie - I tried it, then bought the DVD when I returned the rental... Gets really interesting towards the end.

Ever. Critics didn't seem to know what to make of the first two. I saw that the other day on encore. Let me just say that I love John Cusack's work, and this one is amazing. The story is VERY VERY interesting. And I can see what you mean about the critics, everyone I asked if they'd seen it or heard of it. I got a big fat Nope. *adds to list*
El Sitherino Posted October 31, 2004 Posted October 31, 2004 Star Wars All of Akira Kurosawa's films (even his crime/mob ones) Indiana Jones Tarantino's films and all the ones Stormy listed. Oh, and ever John Wayne movie. The dude's a legend
Astrotoy7 Posted October 31, 2004 Posted October 31, 2004 Originally posted by InsaneSith ....Oh, and every John Wayne movie. The dude's a legend yes, a legendary draft dodger...... having objections to participate in a war is one thing.... then going to make a career of pretending to be a tough guy cowboy/soldier/pilot etc is another thing.... the man is a mockery of himself......... mtfbwya
acdcfanbill Posted October 31, 2004 Posted October 31, 2004 John Wayne did not dodge the draft, he was exempt as he was the father of 4 children at the time. His studio bosses convinced him not to volunteer becaue they thought he would better serve his country being a moral booster at home. whether thats true of course, no one knows, but he certianly didnt do anything shady or illegal to get out of serving in WWII.

He once went in to try out for the air force but wasn't accepted at all for poor vision.
