Re: 10 decent flims
Did anyone yet mention Dr Strangelove?
Also Kind Hearts and Coronets. The Ladykillers Passport To Pimlico Le Mans, true it's not a great film but fantastic automotive nostalgia and just listen to the glorious noise.

Re: 10 decent flims
My top ten (that I'll admit on here!) would include:
The Shawshank Redemption The Bone Collector Valkyrie Forrest Gump Blood Diamond Gran Torino American History X Green Mile Goodfellas Road to Perdition I watched Ronin a couple of weeks ago - utter she-height. Sean Bean doesn't even take his top off, whats that all about?! Last edited by fenjer; 04-09-10 at 06:13 PM. |

Re: 10 decent flims
I'm between downloading most of the ones listed which i havent seen and this thread.
Ok one that probs will not get said by anyone but 40 year old Scots. 'Restless Natives' I'm biased hence my avatar, but what a film suzuki GP125 getaway car/bike. 'The Expendables' was good as a cheap thrill with most of the hollywood action acters in. 'Powder' a great touching and thought provoking film (nowt to do with coke). 'Fear and loathing in las vegas' Depp is truely strange in this un. 'Top Gun' +1 from me as previously mentioned. 'Overboard' funny but a bit old. 'Blown Away' Tommy Lee & Jeff Bridges class film for action thiller. 'Airheads' funny if you like 80s metal. 'Anvil' such a class rockumentery i promise you'll have a soft spot for Lips. 'Ghost' if you're takin the misses. these films I've chosen as they appeal to a wide audience although i like em too. |

Re: 10 decent flims
Ghost! I proposed to Barbara bended knee etc in the queue to go in and see Ghost - sadly she said yes....
If you're including old black and white's like "It's a wonderful life" can I include the original "Miracle on 34th street." On the run up to Xmas, especially if its a cold wet day, I'll put both one or the other on to remind me what Xmas is all about.
