Good thread probably gonna repeat a few but here goes. Shawshank Redemption Django Se7en Fight Club Robin Hood Prince of Thieves Life Black Klansman Oceans 11 and 13 (12 was ****) Oh and Toy Story
Can anybody recommend a really good comedy, ages since I’ve seen one. Tell a lie I watched a film a few weeks back I expected to be crap and I pissed myself laughing all the way through, A million ways to die in the west.
I could probably name 20 that depending on my mood would be my favourite. A few that spring to mind are The Usual Suspects, Seven (this troubles me whenever I watch it), Jaws, Alien (maybe my favourite), Bladerunner, The Outlaw Josey Wales, The man who shot Liberty Valance, The Dark Knight, Pulp Fiction, Reservoir Dogs, The Outsiders. Guilty pleasures - logans run (Jenny Agutter) and The Keep ( a Michael Mann film with an amazing soundtrack (tangerine dream) that he refuses to acknowledge). Oh and maybe Risky Business...
A lot of the films I love have already been put up on the list, but here are a few more: War - Brotherhood, Black Hawk Down, The Thin Red Line, Danger Close, Zero Dark Thirty & Siege of Jadotvile Fantasy - Big Fish, Joker Classic - Citizen Kane Sci-Fi - Interstellar, Aliens Drama - I Daniel Blake, Tyrannosaurus, Mass Action - Nobody, Baby Driver Western - 3:10, True Grit
I too watched that one day when off work expecting to turn it off after 10 mins but pissed myself the majority of the way through.
Left field favourite of mine is 13 days about JFK and the Cuban missile crisis. Love the 80s though Platoon, Untouchables, the Lost Boys.
Not really a film watcher but Purely Belter and The Commitments are my go to movies. I have seen them countless times and just about know the lines off pat, but they still crease me up. Also Man on the Moon, the story of Andy Kaufman and any Monty Python film
Like the old black and whites Inc Its a Wonderful life, To Kill a Mockingbird (best by miles) The Lavender Hill Mob, Ladykillers. Any of the Inspector Closeau ( Peter Sellers) films, Zulu which I've watched dozens of times as I have with Where Eagles Dare. The list is endless really.
Angel Heart - (Mickey Rourke) and (Robert De Nero)...a slow thinking man's Detective film....Thriller, Horror - 1987 Life Of Brian - ....nuf said.
