Layer Cake. Easily one of my all time favs.

Harold and Maude FTW. Classic, want that Jaguar.

If you guys liked Snatch then you absolutely have to see Lock, Stock, and 2 Smoking Barrels if you haven't seen it, I actually liked it better than Snatch because it was an Indy Film and never got any real screen time here in the states outside of showing it on cable. Guy Ritchie is a hell of a Director, his style is freakin awesome.

I think I'm the only movie buff who doesn't like Quentin Tarantino, personally I think his movies are over hyped over made crap, particularly the Kill Bill movies. Inglorious Bastards and the first Dusk to Dawn were actually pretty good.

great skin flick, eh?

... I actually liked it better than Snatch.

blasphemous!

sorry. im a simple creature. pulp fiction & reservoir dogs was awesome, but im not a huge tarantino fan either. anyone ever seen Old Boy or the proposition?

25th hour

Ong Bak

Ong Bak

fight scenes? ehhh, that whole flying knee thing gets really old, really fast.
plot? f*** and no. 5 minute p0rn clips that go straight from intro to boning have better plot than tony jaa movies.

[orangeNblue]

Old Boy is just weird but worth seeing for its ending. Personally, I have to agree with the Ong Bak being crap. I got it because I like martial arts movies. the fighting was crappy not to mention the lack of plot and the choppy scene transition. Old Bruce Lee or Jackie Chan movies are the best for staged fight scenes...

quiet you!

few things are more awesome than flying knees landing flush.

the Showtime kick is an exception.

The Green Butchers (dark but funny):

If anyone hasn't mentioned it already, Old Boy. It's a f*** and parts of it were very disturbing to me, but I couldn't stop watching:

and lastly, my all time favorite...The Professional (it's not that unknown) but it's "old" for some people I guess. Gary Oldman is freakin awesome (as usual):

THIS.

I was going to mention it but thought it was too well known. Such an excellent movie.

[skydragoness]

I guess for the younger crowd on here it's unknown.. (honestly I saw it 4 years ago for the first time); this is why I have Netflix so I can watch a lot of older movies over the winter.

[s0m3th1ngAZ]

Did anyone else really, really dislike Reservoir Dogs? This coming from someone who places Pulp Fiction in their top 10 movies of all time.

[Coupe12]

Andre The Butcher!

The Human Centipede!

[numbnuts240]

they are awesome. the first maybe three times. after the 50th, it's kind of lame.

on a whim i purchased "the protector" on blu ray for like $5. what a load of s***. scene transition made absolutely no sense, and the fight scenes were all the same throughout, and identical to ong bak. tony jaa may be athletic and talented, but he needs to stop with s*** thai movies.

martial arts movie that i've been told to watch yet haven't gotten around to it (maybe tonight), "ip man". loose biographical account of the life of ip man, who was bruce lee's instructor.

[air_forced]

After reading ScorchedNX2K's signature I remembered another one.

Serenity. (TV Series was good too- if you watch it in order and not the way it aired helps)

[CanuckQx4]

I just watched Heat and Worlds Fastest Indian as they seemed to reoccur in this thread and they were both excellent watches!!

Cant believe Ive never heard of them. I plan on picking a few more out of the list for this week!!

Keep em coming guys

WWWWWUUUUUTTTTT!!!! Seriously, where the hell have do you live that you've never heard of HEAT? It won a ton of awards and is considered one of the greatest movies of all time plus it has De Niro and Pacino so it's extremely well known about. Saying you've never heard of Heat is like saying you've never heard of Scarface or Goodfellas.

Actually despite how well known they are I'd have to say that Scarface, Goodfellas, Casino, Heat and A Bronx Tale are in my top 15 favorite movies of all time.

Are you serious? I have the Collectors edition of Reservoir Dogs in the metal tin. The scene where he cuts off dude's ear was priceless. Steve Buscemi does serious justice to the creepy crazy character.

[the a3k]

rock n rolla. great effin movie

its still funny how ive seen every single movie posted so far lol

[numbnuts240]

Halfway through ip man now. Excellent movie and the fight scenes rock.

Just curious, why does everyone say that you must see the unedited version of this? I have never seen the edited version so I don't know what is cut out.


I heard a lot of the more "romantic" scenes between Portman and Reno were cut to take the "pedo-ish" tones out of the film, but I have no confirmation because I have never seen that edit.

That's pretty much what they cut out; don't see why either, it was harmless. I just hate it when they do stuff like that in general so it's something I mention

[MinisterofDOOM]

Gary Oldman is my all time favorite actor. Never seen The Professional though. Guess I should.

[Mr1der]

what the hell?

You of all people I'd expect to have seen that movie...

[darens13]

the professional was a good movie. a little odd but i would watch it again.

[Xdisaster240sX]

I own this...Very good movie!

One of my offspring has this very poster in his chambers. I must attest to it being a superb motion picture.
