the best film ?
 

Taxi on 2001-11-27 03:04 [#00055919]



Akira has to go in there.

Being John Malkovich was a masterpiece... so was fight club.
There are so many good films out there... its hard to choose
one. But star wars does not deserve the praise it got over
for being the best film of the millenium.


 

Ashtangi from 1 Degree North of the Equator on 2001-11-27 04:13 [#00055939]



Gladiator. Then Memento.


 

Pusher of the Square from mars on 2001-11-27 06:32 [#00055958]



Tremors!!!!!!!!!!! havent any of you here seen this horror
cult classic?


 

Taxi on 2001-11-27 07:22 [#00055966]



Sorry, Gladiator was skank. Way overated .. and doesn't even
come close to deserving a favorite movie status.

"Why bitch about artists insulting their audences? I think
the audiences insult themselves enuf on their own."

Tremors was classic.

Everytime is see Gummo it makes me feel sick for two weeks
after it !THE BARON HAS SPOKEN!!!!! I REMEMBER BEING A CHILD
MILKING SMALL GOATS THAT WOULD READ ME BEDTIME STORYS !!!!


 

Vaginahead on 2001-11-27 07:32 [#00055969]



Gladiator was shit, so was American Beauty.


 

Clobe Smith from over here on 2001-11-27 08:15 [#00055973]



my favorite film is always changing. but ... i will always
love pi, buffalo 66, anything kubrick, david lynch rules

oh, and has anyone seen amelie? saw it a few days ago, and
loved it


 

Beef Fog on 2001-11-27 08:40 [#00055979]



Yeah, Gummo is a great movie, but Julien is greater in my
opinion...I like how it focuses on the characters more...


 

Baron Von Picklefoot from From my "special" place on 2001-11-27 08:53 [#00055981]



In the bed naked watching movies on the VCR color me
seethrough and tickle my favorite inch knitt sweaters with
cheese and thank god for David Lynch!!THE BARON HAS
SPOKEN!!!


 

D U S T from I O W A on 2001-11-27 09:10 [#00055983]



its really hard to think of the best film ever. if I would
say the best ever -only one movie, it would simply be...
Krull... just kidding. really though it would be the
godfather. hmm... some recent classics fight club, pulp
fiction, eyes wide shut. really though, I think that memento
fucked with me more than any movie I've seen in a long time.
only one thing could have made the movie just a little bit
better and that would be some aphex or autechre pieces on
the soundtrack. some more interesting and successful
ideas...cube, freqency, pi, matrix.


 

Korben Dallas from _ on 2001-11-27 09:24 [#00055986]



Re: f.l.e.a.

Yeah Existenz was pretty cool .. very surreal.


 

Fernz on 2001-11-27 09:28 [#00055988]



I thought The Godfather trilogy was class. Anybody seen
Blow? Good film I thought.

Ceri JC on 2001-11-27 11:55 [#00056044]



Requiem for a dream was very good. I liked the idea behind
existenz, but the execution of it was slightly lacking.

Most people here do seem to have good taste in films.


 

Chrispy from UK on 2001-11-27 11:59 [#00056045]



Yeah, we have haven't we! I personally think 'Cannon Ball
Run 2' and 'Nuns on the Run' are the greatest films of all
time, I'm sure you all agree.


 

phiz from Amsterdam on 2001-11-27 12:16 [#00056049]

FreakyNinoBrown from usass on 2001-11-27 18:02 [#00056157]



to all those that said 'momento':i have heard on the dvd the
movie can be watched in reverse so that things take place in
chronological order, but have yet to find this feature...any
help?...great movie


 

Contour Regard from a couch on 2001-11-27 18:07 [#00056158]



so many good movies to chose from really, but some of my
fav's are

Fight Club
Matrix
Memento (mind-blowing and original)
Clockwork Orange
Jay & Silent Bob movies
any Farrelly Bros. movies (Dumb & Dumber, Something about
Mary, Kingpin...etc.)
Saving Private Ryan was good
David Fincher Movies (includes Fight Club, Seven, The Game)
and for some reason i have an eerie liking of Bloodsport
with Jean Claude Van Damme, i watch it whenever it's on TV,
must be the sweet 80's music in it.


 

Gonzola from stockholm on 2001-11-27 18:18 [#00056161]



Has anyone seen the japanese film 'ICHI THE KILLER'? it's
fucking wicked and i mean really fucking wicked. Intense
violence and torture + great acting for more than 2 hours.
In the beginning the title appears in blood floating around
in sperm:) i totally recommend it!

.PEACE


 

D U S T from I O W A on 2001-11-27 19:01 [#00056169]



freakyninobrown,

about memento the word is that the canadian dvd has a
feature which has chapters shorted into little clips unlike
the dvd that I've watched and probably you to. these short
clips can be viewed in reverse order then telling the story
the other way. it sounds really cool but I've not done it
myself. well the movie is so good maybe its worth picking
up the other version. it should be noted that this version
however does not have as many options that the american dvd
has. damn it was good.

"if I can't feel time how... how am I supposed to heal".

gonzola: you´ve been to the Stockholm Film Festival,
haven´t you?


 

Ophecks from Nova Scotia on 2001-11-27 22:23 [#00056233]



The first Jurassic Park is awesome, so is the first Home
Alone. After seeing that, I always wanted to be stuck home
with burglars so I could beat the shit of them with tricky
traps.


 

Gonzola from stockholm on 2001-11-27 22:46 [#00056237]



Zetre:Yes! were you there too?


 

Aktium from bat country on 2001-11-27 22:50 [#00056240]



everyone said my favorites, except for snatch,
trainspotting, and run lola run
