Solaris (Tar's), 2001, Transformers, Gattaca, Stand by Me, The Deer Hunter, Platoon, The Last Man on Earth, etcetera.
Mostly Transformers, though. It's made of sterner stuff.

wow this thread is moderately o'skool.
nothing drastic to add to what i put down the first time, but i will say that the two best films i've seen in recent memory are Celine and Julie Go Boating and Notre Musique. Godard is in some sort of 3rd or 4th prime of his career right now.
and since i hadn't taken the Syberberg class when this thread was up before, i suppose i should mention that Hitler: Ein Film Aus Deutschland is one of the best movies i've ever seen, and possibly one of film's biggest travesties insofar as it has had no DVD release, and is otherwise just generally unseen and unknown.

It's a bit silly how no one cares about Godard's films after 1967. They're great and they try to do something new. Great films:
Passion Prénom Carmen Nouvelle vague Éloge de l'amour Notre musique etc.

What the fuck was Notre Musique about? From what I remember it was more esoteric than a Lynch movie.
I own it on DVD...suppose I'll watch it again later today.

Oh and of course the Israelo-Palestinian conflict.
But most of all it's a really beautiful film, you shouldn't try to find a definite meaning.

I figured it was something like that. I absolutely disliked the inclusion of the Indians. I hate it when Indians show up in films...yes, we know they got the short end...let's move on.
Bande à part was good.

I renounced soo much in my travels and life...DRASTIC changes...
i'd like to add to weatherd's list:
2001 City of God Baraka *** ***Vajra Sky Over Tibet*** ***Powaquatsi*** (Same vein as Baraka; Produced with the works of Hopi Prophets)
Can't wait for Milarepa, tho! It's about a Tibetan Yogi master who was a black magician using the ancient Tibetan *BON* rites to kill over 30 people...
fled for his soul and discovered the dharma...through his perseverance on his guru yoga he generates the merit to surpass the karma *and* become enlightened...all in one lifetime...in this body.

i watched 8 1/2 again last week and i think that is the best film i have ever seen. it is genius. my mind was blown with every passing second. it may be best to watch it in slow motion so you can take it all in.

No he meant objective you twit.
But he's been mistaken because the best film ever at the moment is Bride of Re-Animator. Brian Yuzna is an unsung genius, and I'm being very serious.

that's silly.
i thought it was refreshing, particularly in context. it wasn't about making people fell bad for stuff they dun' did, it was potentially opening new dialogues. (if i could do the quote verbatim i would... it was a gooder)
i'm glad the film was so inclusive without attempting to be some sort of facetious "mosaic" or something like that.

"I remember when people in the old days would just say "gooday to you sir" to end an argument...and it'd be like all intense and the guy would just go 'GOODDAY!" and the other guy'd be all like' uhh...uhh.buuuut....' the the first guy'd say 'I SAID GOODDAY' and there...there you have it...that'd be the end of that...
there was an episode with david duchovney....hilarious!

The Crow. also a fan of the original graphic novel before the stories were turned into hollywood films.
The first Crow film is my favorite though.

Well I can forsee myself totally disagreeing with this in a short while but....
2001 A Space Odessesy. (can you imagine how immense this must have been in 1968)
Groundhog day (makes me feel like life is worth it, also has Bill Murray).
Das Boot. (Apparently this is a film, but I've seen the 5 part TV version - immense)
Brazil (The proper version with the nasty twist at the end = orwelian masterpiece).
Bladerunner (Just absolutely fantastic atmosphere and mood throughout)
Wavetwisters (QBert's scratching/animation mashup - totally brilliant stuff)
Porco rosso (Fantastic anime about a charismatic pig flying a seaplane - superb)
The French Connection (Brilliant car chase, Hackman is superb - great)
The Third Man (Brilliant film noire in post war Vienna)
The Usual Suspects (What a twist at the end - love it)
Get Carter (His name is Michael Caine... seems it's grim up north)
And loads more, but I can't think of them at the moment.
