I rather liked "Bonfire of the Vanities", "Fight Club", "Shawhank Redeption"

And "Identity" is a very good suspense horror film.

Suspense Horrors focus on fear and plot while Gore Horrors focus mostly on the violence, blood, and dumb victims

And this thread wouldn't be complete with out mentioning the "Godfather" movies and "Good Fellas"

What exactly do I have to do when my turn comes? I seen parts of the original slueth and saw almost all of royal Tenebaums last time it was on Comedy Centrel. Not sure which movie I'll suggest later sine there are 2 I really like that I think should get more exposure.

Thanx for the pm simenon. Sorry I ain't be following along as well as I should have. There are 3 films that I like that have been arround for awhile and need more exposure. Do I need to get in line more than once? Can I say them all at once or can I only ever do one. If I can only pick 1 I think I know what I'll pick and let you know in my next post.

Well if you look at my earlier post in thread I suggest 2 of the three there ("Identity" and "Bonfire of the Vanities") those 2 are reall good. But the one I don't suggest there that should be for the film group is something I saw more recently then both of those. Its a movie about a very well calculated bank robbery.

"Inside Man"

I like some of his stuff but not all of it.

I also liked "Inside Man's" side plot involved with nazi stuff. Gave me almost noble impression of the bank robberies since they didn't do it just for cash. There were good jokes, alot of action, a good smart scheme crime, and an interesting side/back story. Nothing I didn't like in the film. I believe all of us here likes it when a good plan comes together with their team. We all like fooling the town somtimes

Interesting side/back story was my poor way of describing how they/you found out about the nazi stuff and that bad guys ties too it. And how that did end up be3ing part of their heist.

I get what you guys are saying. It wasn't necessary. Bad guys who just steal things do captivate audiances. And yes that aspect of their plan was more awesome and the more greater appeal. I did enjoy the robbery more. I just have no qualms against the nazi stuff and felt it was a nice touch.

When you eat a cake what's your favorite part? Mine is the ice cream if that's there or the actual chocolate dough or filling. Frosting is not something I really need on a cake I can usually take it off. If involving the heist of the nazi stuff was the frosting I wouldn't of taken it off. I enjoyed it all with the rest of the cake. Only frosting I ever find edible is the kind that is also ice cream or just chocolate icing

I caught this film awhile ago. Great Acting, I like how the plot flowed and successful showed

how the man became racist, went to prison (curb check was sick good violence), Expeirenced prison and its hardships where his only friend through it all was the black guy he cleaned the laundry with which helps cure his racism. Then the guy gets out of Jail, all the while his younger brother had fowlloed in these bigot tendencies. He has to take a very unique "history" course for his bad grades and his bro has to set him straight. Yet with everything people go through there are still troubles. The younger bro is shot by a black kid he previously stood up to/against. Its a rough life. There are good and bad people of all cultures and you can't change everbody. But you still have to try.

Rofl has good in game and out game knowledge. Except this time I hope his oppinion of it not changing in the next 50-60 plus years is wrong.

I would like to interrupt this thread as it has become rather silly!

Nothing wrong with being silly.

I'm too busy to organize this thing by myself so I say somebody makes a new thread with a link to this one and starts signups for it.
