I see you like resident evil. Have you seen any real Zombie movies like the Living dead trilogy? Compared to them Resident evil looks like a Disney movie...

Brodie 11-03-2002 12:01 PM

I've seen them, But they seem like comedies. Any movie like that is funny.

Some good movies that didn't make the list:

1- Childs Play 1 and 2
2- Mario Bros (Jon Leguizamo is funny as hell.)

Karpo_007 11-03-2002 03:45 PM

Well resident evil was a kiddie movie basicly, But i have heard that that there will be another Geroge A. Romero movie! It's called 'Dead Reckoning' and it will be R-rated in theaters and unrated for DVD. Not PG13 like some stupid RE. Why do i talk about this so much? BEcause i was hoping lot from that movie, and it failed me, BIG time.

Here's few i forgot to mention

6. Start Wars original trilogy
7. Indiana Jones 1 & 3

Eye of Sarnath 11-03-2002 09:06 PM

Man, what can I post that hasn't been already? Oh well, these are my favorites:

Raiders of the Lost Ark (best movie EVER imho)
Star Wars (yep, all of 'em. espcially The Empire Strikes Back)
Jurassic Park (I didn't like the last two that much)
The Terminator
True Lies (I think this movie is hilarious!)
Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade (another very funny movie)
TMNT: The Movie
Lord of the Rings (not quite as good as Star Wars, I don't think, but it's up there)
Alien
Aliens

Okay, watch these, 'cause, uh, well, they're really good.

I think that TMNT 1 is a good movie, still it's not on my top 10 list of best movies. TMNT 2 and 3 were a little... bleh.... :roll:

HorseTechie 11-04-2002 01:05 PM

Mmm... it's usually a movie a week for me. My hubby is a big time collector of DVDs (we have 375 right now). Trying to pick out my other favs aside from TMNT, LotR, and StarWars will be haaaard! Oo... Titan AE and Mulan.. and Toy Story and Monsters Inc. also good.

The ones we got this week are ET, Spiderman, Sum of all Fears, the first season of Malcolm in the Middle, Crime + Punishment in suburbia, Super Troopers, and the Count of Monte Crisco.

I have yet to see Monte Crisco (lloks good), but the others were okay. My fav picks there is ET and Malcolm inthe middle. Super Troopers was funny, but not like how Police Academy was. The Sum of all Fears... serious damage there... but hardly any emotions. Bleh.

Crime + Punishment in Suburbia was fascinating. I mean, i never heard of it, and the plot is very close to that in American Beauty. Apparently it's also a take off of Dostoyevsky's classic novel, I guess. But the actor, Vincent Kartheiser, who played the freaky geek who spies on the troubled teen girl... damn, he looked kinda cute. *sai* Must have been his sprakling blue eyes and the way he looked like a Japanese Anime character. Not that I usually droll over acotors or anything. :P

Karpo_007 11-04-2002 02:48 PM

I watched "Sum of all Fears" the other day. I must say i was disappointed with it... If you compare it something like "Bourne Identity" wich i also saw few weeks back you can see the differnce between a good and bad Clancy movie...

Brodie 11-04-2002 04:14 PM

Finally, someone with the same movie tastes as me. WHo would have thought you could see View Askew movies with Evil Dead movies on the same list twice?

Edit: Clancy didn't do the Bourne Identity...

PWDESAI 11-04-2002 05:04 PM

heh
1. TMNT 1
2. Cheech and chong up in smoke
3. tommy boy
4. shaft (original 70's verion)
5. Ghostbusters
6. Any i forgot and i liked i just don't remember, cuz i basically just read off of my dvd collection :wink:

Newton Gimmick 11-04-2002 05:47 PM

Has anyone besides the Hedge listed a movie other then from the past 30 years that wasn't a Cheech and Chong movie?

You guys should see more versatile stuff, you know like...

One Flew Over the Cuckcoo's nest
The Treasure of Siera Madre
Citzen Kane (Only the greatest movie ever made)
The Two Jakes
Casablanca


For the cheaper sci-fi type flicks, (MY GOD PEOPLE LISTED RESIDENT EVIL) go rent, They Live, with Rowdy Roddy Piper. The simple things in that movie are way better then half the crap these big budget movies have. PLUS, it has the greatest movie fight scene of all time. Don't ask me, ask Joe Bob Riggs.

Lastly, since your alls list is mostly comic and video game movies...How could you not list Batman 1 & 2. Batman, is purely the best comic to movie, probably ever.

For the record TMNT 1 was really good, and I'll be watching it again here in a bit.


I dunno if this list was supposed to be greatest movies of all time, or top ten personal favs or what. But check out a few of those movies I listed at the top. By no means are they in any order, or any representation of the whole list of MUST SEE movies. Definate classics. And They Live is a great Cult Classic.

Anywho.....
