[obligatory pot reference]Reefer Madness[/obligatory pot reference]is too fn funny whne you're wrecked! As far as classic (old) movies go... It Happened One Night and Bringing Up Baby are some of my favorite slapsticks, also get Adam's Rib with Spencer Tracy and Katherine Hepburn-- and just about anything else they're both in Guess Who's Coming to Dinner, Father of the Bride, etc. Classic Classics that anyone who loves film should see: : Cabinet of Dr. Caligari, Metropolis, Birth of A Nation, Potemkin, and Citizen Kane See any Hitchcock as most people said...Rebeccaand Vertigo are other good ones High Plains Drifter is the only Western I've ever liked ...and don't get me started about good musicals...  NEVER FORGET!!! This message was edited by spitfire421 on 1-2-02 @ 2:57 PM | ||||

| O&A Board Regular Registered: Oct. 00 | quote: Since it was a classic movie thread, I didn't think I had to say "any Disney cartoon movie" but that's what I meant. Not to say that most Disney cartoons aren't classics, but I was talking about the movies Disney has put out. "Fox and the Hound" was my first Disney encounter (in book form though), I've been hooked ever since. I think I'm gonna print out this thread and take it with me to BlockBuster. I can never remember all the movies I want to rent when I get there! (Maybe that's cuz I make the mistake of only looking in DVD's, are any of the classics on those nifty new fangled pieces of shiny stuff? Jeezus Christmas.)

| Hanger-On Registered: Jan. 70 | No movie made before 1970 was any good. And most of the ones made before 1980 pretty much sucked too. | ||||

| Psychopath Registered: Jun. 01 | quote:Eh? I'd say the 80's were the worst period for movies, overall. Anyway, some more movies: Stalag 17 - Good movie about a POW camp, though it is somewhat dated now. High Noon The Searchers Unforgiven - The only westerns I could ever really sit through. AKIRA - The Citizen Kane of Anime, new dub is good if you must watch it in english. Motel Hell - The pinnacle of cheesy horror. Ran - Akira Kurosawa is the greatest director ever (sorry Kubrick, sorry Hitch), and Shakespeare never looked better. Battle scenes put to shame anything ever done in Hollywood. Chinatown - Don't think I've seen it mentioned here yet. Great noir, and Jack Nicholson's best film. Cape Fear (1962) - The remake was good, but nowhere near the original. Robert Mitchum rules in this, as he always does. Cool Hand Luke - "No man can eat fifty eggs." Nuff said. 2001: A Space Odyssey Brazil Blade Runner The Forbidden Planet - Not sure if these have been mentioned yet either, but all are must see Sci-Fi. | ||||

| O&A Board Regular Registered: Oct. 00 | Tsk Tsk... I'm disappointed people... all these "Must See" movies... and no one thought to mention: "Big Trouble in Little China"?? oh.. let's see what else I can think of that hasn't allready been mentioned.. "Of Unknown Origin" 80's sleeper horror/thriller that I suggest to EVERYONE.. extremely scary simply because it's FACTUAL, not sci-fi.. I've watched many people slowly pick their feet up off the floor and approach a toilet bowl woith extreme caution because of this film.. "The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly" The true Spaghetti Western "Time Bandits" "Airplane" one of the classic original spoofs "Police Academy" another great spoof flick "Schindler's List" the movie tells a powerful story there are others.. just can't think of them at the moment  No! I am NOT a Goth Dude!! "I'm gonna change my name to Pimp Daddy Payne!" | ||||
