Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil

I would put these two on the list:

FMJ - Just watch the 1st 30 min of the flic. This is the most accurate portrayal I've seen of 'boot camp', not to mention it's funny.

Midnight - It's chocked full of 'entertaining characters'. One line says it all for me. Kelso is on the phone with his boss in NYC, and he says 'These people down here are walking an imaginary pet on a leash. They are heavily armed and heavily drugged. New York City is boring. Talk to you later.'

Half the films Eastwood & Newman were involved in.

More to follow.......................
 
Think I'm going to add

Apocalypse now
M.A.S.H
The quiet man
Blazing Saddles
Star Wars the ( the original )
The hurricane Rubin carter

To my list.
 
Since someone reminded me of The Thin Man, all of which would be on my list. Let me add another movie with William Powell:

How To Marry A Millionaire.

Lauren Bacall takes a dig at her husband Humprey Bogart. "Look at Roosevelt, look at Churchill, look at old fella what's his name in The African Queen." :D
 
Captain Blood!!
Damn, add "Dawn Patrol", and "Robin Hood" to my list. Plus all those Cagney ensemble movies were pretty good, and Bogies' film noir' "Dead Reckoning " is sweet too. I love TCM :D

I love the part in Dawn Patrol when the aviators get caught in the basement and Reagan says something like "C'mon you Krauts, give us a break" :lmao:

"Some Like it Hot" makes my list too.
 
Yep, I agree "the Shootist" was one of Wayne's best, I loved True Grit too though I only watched it to see Glen Campbell die.

Hitchcock's the 39 steps
Manhunter
Shaun of the Dead
Blazing Saddles
High Anxiety
Das Boot
The Enemy Below
Fate is the Hunter
Corvette K-225

One film that I can watch many times and not get tired of the "The Dish", it's a slow moving flick and is kinda lost on anyone who isn't old enough to have watched the Apollo 11 landing in 69. Full of good acting.....

Here as well. My other main hobby other than music is movies; I was a DVD reviewer for a pretty large website for awhile, but it was too time consuming for a guy who was working 6 days a week at the time. I can't ever see me giving up either music or movies as my two main hobbies....I've easily got over 1500 titles sitting around here, and likely more than that. I'll throw a list out of some of my favorites -

Kill Bill Vol. 1
The Godfather
Serenity
Escape From New York
The Omega Man
Rocky
Chisum
McClintock!
Gettysburg
Saving Private Ryan
Raging Bull
Cop Land
Tombstone
Black Rain
The Shootist
Goodfellas
Patton
Diamonds Are Forever
Casino Royale (and any other Bond movie in the canon)
