Change of topic, worst film ever..... Alexander!! They destroyed that Legend!!

I agree! They made him gay!

And humping little mens buttocks aren't gay? Then again, most people did that back in those days. It was perfectly normal. But he did it

Ahhh yea Stargates a classic

Lt. Speirs and Winters are the best characters in a war film ever. (Band of Brothers may be a mini-series but man it pwnz)

Best Opening Sequence has to be Saturday Night Fever, when the Bee Gees comes on and John Travolta is strolling down the road with his paint can. Lol epic.


How could I forget Requiem For a Dream, trippy.

Face-Off!

Classic

Right the run-down in no real order....

The Cube
Waterworld
Braveheart (Ofcourse)
Gone in Sixty Secounds (Original)
Equilibrium (The best, no doubt)
Boondock Saints (Can't believe no-one listed this one yet!)
Hero (Need to watch atleast twice to get the detail.)
Seven Samuria (YESSSSS!!!!)
The Stand (6 Hours long, but if your willing to watch, a great movie)

Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas
Where the Buffalo Roam
Freaked

Any Kevin Spacey film.
Any Johnny Depp film.
Any Tim Burton film.

Any Jean-Claudde Van Dam movie is really good to watch if your up for a laugh.
Same goes for Ben Stiller, that guys a genius.

Indeed, boondock saints is a real good movie. The scene with the cat is funny :)

I thought The Cube was awesome!
So simple, yet so complex.

Heard the sequels were sucky though.

Ive never seen Boondock Saints, Id better get to it!

Yes, I didn't like Hypercube. It was horrible

and in the category porn :

Tracy takes Tokyo

lol Kazuo. For completely messed up films there is always Donnie Darko and Romper stomper. Reminds me of another great film actually, American History X - what a good film.

V for Vendetta

Nuff said, my new all time favroite.... even better than Geisha

ok so we done lots of films... howabout the most beautiful thing commited to film.?   in my opinion...

http://www.bravia-advert.com/commercial/braviaextcommhigh.html

amazing... simply amamamamazing and NO cgi... hurah!

rofl!

"And in tonight's news. A mass wave of bouncy balls attacks lower San Francisco!"

Advent Children, Conqueror of Shambala and Pokémon (Movie one (1)).

The Wickerman is one of the best films ever. 

I'm talking about the extendedversion of the original, don't even want to think of the remake with Nicholas Cage.

One of the best scenes has to be when the puritanical Christian cop, Howie, is nearly having a fit over the naked girls he saw jumping through rings of fire in a pagan festival.

Howie: "But... but... they are naked!"

Lord Summerisle (Christopher Lee): "Of course they're naked, much too dangerous to jump through fire with your clothes on!"  and then gives Howie a look as if to say "how dumb are you?"

Ya' that film owns... Christopher Lee owns too..

Action wise, it has to be the awesome Die Hard, starring Bruce Willis.
This is everything an action movie should be!
Horror wise, The Ring. The original japanese version was shiver-tastic, and the american remake was pretty good. '28 days later' was a really good british horror movie

So, have we yet agreed on the best film ever?

That would be Equilibrium. For sure!

Seriously? That film really, REALLY sucks. Especiallt the ending sequence where he fights all those soldiers in the long corridor. So pathetic!

Braveheart *nod*

Being Scottish, Braveheart will always have a fond place in my heart.

But it is seriously messed up in terms of accuracy.  Edinburgh Castle is built on a massive 'block' of volcanic material, google it and then compare with the crappy castle shown in the film.

The battle of Stirling was at Stirling Bridge, not the middle of a field.

Kilts weren't around at that time. 

Longshanks died several years after Wallace.  The battle of Bannockburn was completely meh.  Edward II was there, they went with the intention to fight, this paying homage crap was completely made up.  And the Scots actually used tactics other than charging across a field screaming. 

Way to stereotype Scottish, Irish and English people, Hollywood.

But it's an entertaining film for all that.

The Lord of the Rings trilogy deserves a mention here.  The first one is nearly perfect.

OR You have a bad taste in movies?!  :P

But but!! He was like.. teh BESTEST CLERIC EVAR!!
And he was trained to like.. dodge bullets! And through his wierd funky kung fu shooting training his killing efficiency rose no less than 120%!!

The only other Cleric that could pwn him was Sean Bean - who got an attack of conscience.
That black dood thought he was l33t, but got pwned in like.. two seconds - LOL

Four Brothers tbh...

If any of you guys have seen Ong Bak, then you know Tony Jaa absolutely pwnz anyone. Ever.

Ong Bak was good.  It was kinda funny when the main character, having just defeated the marital arts guys in single combat almost got beat by some guy whos fighting style involved nothing kore than a relentless assault using everything close to hand as a weapon

Snakes on a plane, saw it just now, enough said.

The advert for that is sooo crap... I dont even have any urge to go and see it.

lolar! its SHEER genius... the advert owns too... "this summer, pirates rule the seas, but snakes rule the air"  WHAT a catchy line...

Yeah the line is good, but that doesnt make the film good lol. Ill go and see it monday.

Snakes On A Plane?
Ohhhh dear GOD!

The trailer just made me.. laugh.
But that IS a funky line.
