    yalls favorite movies?

    ok, so here's the deal. i've mastered the art of ripping dvd's to divx, wrote
    a nifty little program to automate the whole task, figured out how to get a
    good picture on my tv output from my computer, bought a spindle of blank
    cd's, and bought a nice 128 capacity cd binder. now i want 128 movies to
    fill that binder...=P oh yeah, and i can get free movie rentals at hollywood
    video...=)

    now i want each of yall to name your 2 favorite movies that you own (on
    dvd...=) and 3 movies that you would like to own...so thats 5 movies total.

    see, if i thought of 128 movies myself, they would all be action,
    schwarzenegger, kung fu crap movies that no one would wanna watch. i need
    yalls input so i get a move diverse movie library...=)

    two that i owe: true lies, casino
    three that i want: black hawk down, meet the parents, iron monkey

    so not only can yall help me out, but we can start a thread about everyone's favorite movies...=)

    thanks,
    -- clocky baby

    True romance- gotta love Patricia Arquette
    Pulp Fiction

    Here's a quirky action flick-Blood of Heroes sort of a Rocky meets Mad Max meets Roller Ball meets The Longest Yard and Joan Chen is in it!

    The Blues Brothers (the original, not that fraud with Goodman)

    My favorite line in the movie: "Illinois nazis, I hate illinois nazis!" vrooooom!

    Replacement Killers

    The opening scene kills me every time

    Any Al Pacino and Arnold movie is a good start. The Jim Carrey comedies are great. And how can you forget about all the Kevin Smith movies, ex. Jay and Silent Bob, Mallrats, Clerks, Chasing Amy, etc.

    Jim Carey goes too far. IMO - he can be very annoying... but Me, Myself and Irene is some funny shit.

    C - I sent you an e-mail this morning with the movies, but an hour or so ago I got one of those messages from my server saying "could not be delivered." So, is something wrong with your e-mail? not to mention I tried calling your cell phone yesterday and got a " not in service" notice. What the hell?
