Faster, Pussycat! Kill! Kill! Very good movie from 1965, and if you feel like watching something truly hilarious, One, Two, Three from 1961 is a top-choice.

Just saw it the other day, and while as a whole the movie was only so-so for me, I think that Will Smith played his character very well.

About the only one I haven't seen mentioned so far is (strangely) Citizen Kane. The only part I didn't like were the overbearing strings at the end... course, having to write ten pages on it being the greatest movie ever probably influenced my opinion.

Fireside Poet wrote:White Heat

Yeah, it's old, 1949, but one of the greatest endings ever produced...

...Made it, Ma! Top of the world!...

I hated that movie. I agree the ending was quite something, but it was quite frankly boring, and way too long.

Better old crime movies are:
The Third Man
The Lady from Shanghai
A Touch of Evil

Basically anything involving Orson Welles. I'll add to this later as more come to mind.

I know almost nobody agrees with me but...

Remember the Titans

Denzel is awesome, it is so well written, it's touching, funny, dramatic, and there is football!

Thanks.

I've seen the Mothman Prophecies. It was a very interesting if somewhat strange movie. Is it based on a book?

by **Blitzaholic** on Tue Jan 01, 2008 7:44 pm

yeah, well, it is also supposedly based on a true story that happened in virginia

I only saw that for the first time 2 nights ago. That shit is scary. I've never heard 9 year olds talk about ANYTHING in that matter before, let alone dying for christ.

I'm sure the correct term for that religion is 'cult' - it makes most christians look good
