Need A Great Movie To Watch?

There was a Battle Royale 2, but it was over long and over convoluted. Versus is good for sci fi/horror craziness. So mental it's funny.

Hahaha "ass is numb.If it got whipped I'd not feel it". Cheers for that one Begbie  /default_wink.png gave me a chuckle.

Yeah Jacobs ladder is excellent, & without giving any spoilers (nowt more annoying than spoilers!) if you're interested or fascinated by hallucinogens and there scary effects (like me) then you'll honestly love this film. I personally think the oldies are the goldies

I have no desire to see fifty shades. However, I did hear from an unbiased viewer that it was surprisingly good. I saw news footage of a bunch of women coming out of the theatre after watching it and there was one man that had gone to see it alone in the crowd. He saw the cameras and you could see the fear in his eyes being found out and tried to avoid them but there was nowhere to go. Johnnogg does have a point about all the free porn sites out there though. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I'm watching The Culture High on the Flix.its Pretty good not just about MM HAS ALOT 2 do with pain killers and Sticks .

Bisko

 
Big Fish with Ewan Mcgregor slightly out there but gives you the warm fuzzies

Brazil with Robert De Niro is a good one if you haven't seen it.

Wall E good but scary as it seems they nailed our current existence.

Papillon with Steve Mcqueen is great as well

Just some of my personal faves.

 
Because of my extreme interest in the silver screen and the moving pictures projected thereupon and my lack of anything better to do with my life atm, i'm gonna suggest a bunch of films loosely arranged by genre so if people want to use these as recommendations, they can pick from whatever suits their mood:

Comedy:

Can't get away from Monty Python so in short order: Knights of the Round Table, Life of Brian and The Meaning of Life

Whitnail & I - particularly suited for those who have or have struggled with drug addictions

The Royal Tennenbaums - To this day Wes Andersons best film

Little Miss Sunshine- cute and macabre at the same time

Dr. Strangelove or how i learned to love the bomb - nothing more to add 

Delicatessen -the wierdest, funniest film youæll ever see.

Horror/suspense

Alien - All that needs to be said about this classic has already been said

The Others - A film where every single seems very scary at times and the oppressive atmosphere really gets to you

Dark Water- There was all this Hype about Ringu when the japanese horror films invaded the world, but Dark Water is Superior imo.

The Thing - despite the 80's special effects this film holds up quite well

Drama

The Godfather - another film that needs me to say nothing

Hannah and her sisters - My favourite Woody Allen movie.

Lost i translation - could've been in the comedy section.

Hanabi - Takeshi Kitano at his best

Films with Heavy subject matter, but who can be profoundly moving and rewarding (long headline there)

Come and see (Idi i smotri) - russian war movie that's by far the most realistic war movie i have ever seen. not for weak stomachs, nor for weak hearts as this tears you up emotionally. Filmed almost as a documentary of a teenage boys experiences in the russian army in WW2, and devoid of any sentimentality or heroes.

Wild Strawberries - One of Ingmar Bergmans best films and i can honestly say it changed my life. You rarely find deeper characterization or genuine emotion expressed this way, well almost anywere.

2001 - A Space Odyssey - Stunning to watch- creepy and profoundly mysterious

Grave of the Fireflies- When many people think of animated films they don't think about heavy subject matter - but when they see this films about two young siblings desperately trying to survive in the aftermath of the nuclear strike of hiroshima they may change their tune

Those where just the ones i could think of off the top of my mind. i have a thousand others, but i'll stop for now :)

 
If you like quirky/foreign stuff: Pan's Labyrinth, Cronos, Dark Water, Versus, Ichi the Killer, Howl's Moving Castle, Spirited Away, Akira, Audition, Visitor Q, Suicide Circle, Uzumaki, The Vengeance Trilogy, Ringu, The Eye, The Devil's Backbone...

Agree with pretty much all of those films. And for those looking for more japanese stuff, i'd like to add Hana-bi, Sonatine, Zaitochi (rare example of japansese samurai-musical), all by Takeshi Kitano. Also really great anime films: My Neighbor Totoro (Tonari no Totoro), Nausicaa of the valley of the wind, and Ghost in the Shell. And while not japanese i gotta add Stephen Chow's films ( from Hong Kong) Shaolin Soccer and Kung Fu Hustle. While we're at it gotta mention Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon (by Ang Lee, the guy who made The Ice Storm, Brokeback Mountain and Life of Pi), but there are several other movies in the same genre, Hero and House of Flying Daggers which are also great.

Gonna get into more classical japanese cinema and south-korean films some point later.

Aren't they more horror than action? Not that I am critising, horror is my favourite genre. :)

 
Spot the camera crew in the mirror in the store in the early part of Menace II society. Not a bad film in its day. 

 
I forgot to mention Super Troopers. I cannot wait for part 2 to come out!

  1. S @ soupson: bless your heart buddy. no sense of grammar or proper insults/jokes. you need this place in ways i can’t comprehend
  2. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: Sweet Ol' Me asked about Real ID, Stoup. Are you responsive to emails ? LMAO
  3. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: I smell some Stoup. Is Stoup's on ?
  4. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: @bigblueallda You win. I am lost. Thought you were surprised your license was a Real ID, now you say you provided those items.
  5. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: @bigblueallda I was under the impression that you'd need all of the points to get a real ID . I'd check it's validity if you're gonna fly domestic any time soon, just to make sure. Not to tell you what to do, sorry -
  6. B @ bigblueallda: @drjimmy1964 In my state to get a Real ID, I need SS card, Birth Certificate and two proofs of residency. Which I am positive I had to provide to get a new ID when it had been expired.
  7. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: @Turbo259 advertising - putting in writing for example an negative action to show they are guilty prior to taking action.
  8. B @ bigblueallda: I haven't flown in an airplane in 20 years lol. Can't recall the last government building I have been in either. According to the symbol it tells me I should have on my ID to make it a Real ID I do have one in my state
  9. Gracie5 @ Gracie5: Hey @CuCeltic99!
  10. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: @Turbo259 advertising - putting in writing for example an negative action to show they are guilty prior to taking action.
  11. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: @bigblueallda are you sure you have a Real ID ? I mean , they really want 6 points of proof and 1 for your addy and 1 for your SSN. Did you maybe get it done and forgot and flew out of the country or something ?
  12. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: @bigblueallda are you sure you have a Real ID ? I mean , they really want 6 points of proof and 1 for your addy and 1 for your SSN. Did you maybe get it done and forgot and flew out of the country or something ?
  13. S @ soupson: did anyone ask about real id or is sweet ol jimmy just rambling
  14. T @ Turbo259: @drjimmy1964 what did you mean by advertise? not gettin the verbiage, DM works if anything, just didnt understand
  15. B @ bigblueallda: {Visit your local Driver Service Bureau with the necessary documents: original birth certificate, Social Security card, and two proofs of your state's residency. } I definitely provided this when I had to get a new ID when i let mine go expired too long maybe I unknowingly got one but I think it is pretty standard here.
  16. B @ bigblueallda: Well it was a state id renewal. Before that there was a mixup and I had lost my birth certficate and social security number. After a couple of weeks and finally getting several documents in order I was able to get a state ID. It had been expired previously for a little too long and they wanted all kinds of proof. It was a mess. But nah I looked up what to look for an my state's ID to see if it is a Real Id or not and my card as the symbol it is supposed to have. I'll take a closer look though
  17. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: @bigblueallda are you sure you have a Real ID ? I mean , they really want 6 points of proof and 1 for your addy and 1 for your SSN. Did you maybe get it done and forgot and flew out of the country or something ?
  18. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: Actually it says "Not For Real ID Purposes". That is my 2022 renewal of my 2018 picture ID. I am not due till 2026 and I am sure they will make me go in since my pic would be 8 years old - they used to make you go in in my state for aging when I was younger, then went paper - then back to picture ( I think 9/11 to blame for that ) but relaxed it.
  19. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: Wow, for real ? You renewed your DL and without you knowing or having to present documents in person, they did it online? It has the star on top right and says "Rea: ID" Mine says ' NOT A Real ID" . I never knew what a Real ID was and never bothered to ask - I think I somehow was under the impression that it was for either military / gov't workers who had to travel over seas. WRONG lol.
  20. B @ bigblueallda: I already have one and didn't even realize it. I renewed my ID online about 6 months ago and I just looked at it today and it is a Real ID.
