Thank you. I can't believe it took 13 posts to get that one in there.
I'd also add Zoolander, but not everyone has my sense of humor.
Traitor is a good one if you've never seen it.
 
Full Metal Jacket
Apocalypse Now
Anchorman
The Good, the Bad & the Ugly (I would just get the Triology)
Raising Arizona
National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation (Summer & European are classics)
Planes, Trains & Automobiles
Enter the Dragon
Drunken Master (I think that's right. It's the Jackie Chan one where he gets hammered and whips peoples' asses)
 
Boondock Saints
Lone Survivor (Got a DVD pre release bootleg last week, its a good one, will be in theaters tomorrow I suggest you all go see it)
The Guardian (Im a sucker for self sacrifice)
Armaggedon
Super Troopers
V for Vendetta
Lord of the Rings, Hobbit movies suck though.
Anything Batman, I love the Adam West Batman, I love the Christian Bale... Who knew, Im a big kid :p
Enter the Dragon (Its really poorly done, but always makes me smile)
A History of Violence
Gran Torino
Shooter
Shoot em Up (Honestly one of the most oddly hilarious movies ever...)


Saw alot of movie titles I have wanted to watch, so Im gonna have to do that, starting with spit on your grave... been thinking about it forever but hadnt heard any reviews
 
Blazing Saddles
Monty Python and the Holy Grail
Monty Python's Life of Brian
Up In Smoke
Still Smokin'
The Cowboy Way --- one of the funniest movies ever!
8 Seconds
O Brother Where Art Thou --- Can quote the whole thing
Christmas Vacation ---- it's good year round
Gone Fishin' ---- an underrated classic that nobody seems to have ever heard of!
Shooter
Lone Survivor
The Hangover Trilogy
The Book of Eli
Unstoppable
We're the Millers



There are so many...but there were a lot of great movies from the early to mid 90s that people forget about!

I resent that. The Hobbit movies so far to me, have been equally as good as the LOTR..I know the LOTD are classics...but the CGI in the Hobbit movies just takes my breath away.

Eye candy doesn't warrant a good movie. That's why I hope to not see Avatar on anyone's list.

Love Tolkien! Loved the Reading the Hobbit, but I was so very disappointed in the movie. The 70's Cartoon was better.

Have you read the books? If you did you would know that they are squeezing a trilogy out of a book no larger than any of the LOTR books, and have absolutely butchered the story. So resent it all you want... Point stands.

I agree, the Cartoon movie is a real classic, when I was young I wanted to watch the movie, my uncle wouldn't let me watch it until I read all the books.
