    se7en...I dislike happy endings and that is just about the bleakest ending I have ever seen.

    If you like bleak, absolutely horrific endings, you should watch The Mist.

    I love deep movies with deep meaning. I'm an artistic type. I love that movie The Hours. I find new meaning everytime I watch it. I also love beautifully made films like Life is Beautiful and Memoirs of a Geisha. Soooo many great movies! I also am a huge fan of the horror genre, but more spooks instead of gore. I love Asian horror flicks such as Ju-On.

    Casino
    A Man and A Woman
    The Long, Long Trailer
    Pretty Woman

    Many, many others...

    I caught The Mist on Space a while back... definitely one of the most disturbing endings I've seen. Felt a little physically ill actually.

    I should have added Monty Python and the Holy Grail to my list... how could I have omitted that one???

    Man on Wire was Awesome. If you like documentaries you have to see the King of Kong. And if you don't mind sad you should see The Bridge.

    Hey, good things come in pairs ... You know that ... I saw you over on the boobie thread. :laugh:

    One thing I can say...a good shower scene definitely improves my opinion of the movie.

    OH! Law Abiding Citizen is a good one. Good for that guy.

    Revenge movies are awesome. Paparazzi was under-rated, but that was a good revenge movie. And Ransom... And Taken...

    So hard to narrow it down.

    Wizard of Oz and Philadelphia -- Wizard of Oz was my brother's favorite movie. He died of AIDS 16 years ago. I can't watch either of those movies without thinking of him

    Two other great movies: Harvey (watch it every years at Easter)
    Lonely are the Brave

    I love anything with Jimmy Stewart. He would be my hearthtrob if I had been born in the right era.

    Reminds me to add It's a Wonderful Life to my list.

    The Princess Bride

    I love how the priest says 'Princess Buttercup' when he is trying to marry them.
    Absolutely hilarious!
    Good choice...

    Aw...and the president's speech:

    “Good morning. In less than an hour, aircraft from here will join others from around the world. And you will be launching the largest aerial battle in the history of mankind. “Mankind.” That word should have new meaning for all of us today. We can’t be consumed by our petty differences anymore. We will be united in our common interests. Perhaps it’s fate that today is the Fourth of July, and you will once again be fighting for our freedom… Not from tyranny, oppression, or persecution… but from annihilation. We are fighting for our right to live. To exist. And should we win the day, the Fourth of July will no longer be known as an American holiday, but as the day the world declared in one voice: “We will not go quietly into the night!” We’re going to live on! We’re going to survive! Today we celebrate our Independence Day!”
