Re: Favorite Movies.

Speaking of Spike Lee, its out on dvd now, "Inside Man" w/ clive owen, j foster, denzel was pretty good, I dont think anyone would feel ripped off if they rented it.
I also got news that they are about to begin filming of Boondock Saints 2 and thankfully this time it will be without William Defoe so everyone wins.

MJG... I think we're cut from the same cloth man! "Inside Man" was truly an underrated movie... I'm a big Spike fan myself. It's weird how they didn't even market the film as a Spike Joint. Probably b/c most of his movies have a certain connotation for the general audiences.

The first Boondock was sick! Did you catch the documentary, "Overnight"? It basically shows the entire process from how the "Boondock" script got picked up to how the movie was blacklisted right before major release.

Re: Favorite Movies.

I can't believe no one has called me on "Shaving Ryan's Privates". Shame on you all.

By the way, Ladykillers is good because it's not so good.

Re: Favorite Movies.

Some of my favs:

O Brother Where Art Thou
Saving Private Ryan
Dumb and Dumber (funniest I've ever seen)
American Beauty
The Ring (scariest I've ever seen)
Aliens
Star Wars (original Trilogy)
The Big Lebowski
Braveheart
Gladiator
The Village
Walk the Line

And these have a special place in my heart because they are the three movies that take me back to my childhood most:

Back to the Future
Karate Kid
Ghostbusters

I love anything with Joaquin Phoenix in it these days.

Re: Favorite Movies.

October Sky is one of my favorite movies of all time. Jake Gyllenhaal was one of my favorite actors until he decided to take on the role of a butt pirate.
