What about Life is Beautiful (La vita è bella)? It's been a while since I watched it but I remember liking that a lot.

Four Lions, written by the Peep Show guys and absolutely hilarious.

Oh yeah, I remember that.

+1 to this. I liked it mostly because I can relate to it.

Edit: err, that probably made it sound like I'm a terrorist too. I'm not, I assure you!

"The Good, the Bad, and the Weird", a Korean western set in Manchuria in the 30s. A bounty hunter and an assassin (played by the guy who's Storm Shadow in the G.I. Joe movies) chase a thief with a treasure map. Weird as crap, but entertaining.

The Piano Teacher

Thank you.

This looks good.

Unfortunately I have nothing to contribute to this thread. Sawwy

Boondock Saints (1 & 2). Watched them last week, and they were both pretty good.

Definitely +1 Memento and The Presitge.

I also really liked Collateral (2004 with Jamie Foxx and Tom Cruise), if we're going for recent, slightly under the radar movies.

Atlas Shrugged is one of my favorite movies on Netflix.

Atlas Shrugged is one of my favorite movies on Netflix.

The book it's adapted from is literary vomit though.

And Ayn Rand was an idiot and a hypocrite.

All great movies, but I didn't know there was a second Boondock film!

Been reading the book and I think it's pretty good. Sometimes her writing reminds me of Hemingway, so I really love that style.

Guess we'll just have to agree to disagree. I think the detail she uses is totally unecessary and I find the morals or lack thereof espoused by her works to be reprehensible. It's a polarising book I guess.

There is. There's talk of a third too, which would be cool. I thought the first was better, but the second is definitely worth watching.

"And Shepherds we shall be; For thee, my Lord, for thee. Power hath descended forth from Thy hand, our feet may swiftly carry out Thy commands. So we shall flow a river forth to Thee, and teeming with souls shall it ever be. In Nomeni Patri, Et Fili, Spiritus Sancti."

So badass

Heavy Metal was an ..uh... interesting one. Found it in a box of my dad's old crap :ermm:

Can't really recommend anything of the type people are talking about.
I mostly watch comedies, anything else just bores me.

Guess I'm not as cultured as y'all.

Sympathy for Lady Vengeance

Donnie Darko.

If you need a reason to watch it: I'm in it.

You need more love in your life. Right now you have too much fear.

Scooby Doo on Zombie Island

Still holds up after all these years.

That film used to terrify me as a kid. Theres one part I remember vividly. Scooby and Shaggy fall into an open grave and a zombie comes out of the wall at them, making really nasty zombie noises. As a kid I used to imagine being trapped like that with a zombie and it just freaked me out.

Robin Hood: Men In Tights.
Its the most stupid movie i have ever seen, but the hilarity it caused almost killed me.

Millers and Bringing out the Dead are two good underrated movies by Coen Bro.s / Scorsese respectively. You should also check out http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1560139/ if you've ever heard of Flight of the Concords. Gotta promote the homegrown stuff and the films pretty full of lulz.

I can vouch for the awesomeness of 'Bringing Out the Dead', it really conveyed the surreal chaos the characters were in perfectly.
