    Really, really kickass movies

    The sum of all fears is a downright kickass movie.

    Independence Day was awesome upon release. That movie freaked the hell out of me when I was younger. Then, there was that one scene where the scientist gets slammed against the glass. It is impossible not to jump!!

    "Hostel" has to be one of the most phony/stupid movies I have ever seen. Security in that type of situation would be very high and some lil chump wouldnt be able to get away so easily.

    KY - Maybe you thought is was scary cuz youre scared of getting locked up?

    That pendeja MJ has it right when she mentioned "Shawshank Redemption". That is a TRUE classic that I have to watch whenever it is on.

    You want to watch something, watch "American Me" with Edward James Olmos.

    i gotta bring up the movie with the single greatest ending ever

    After that my guess is that you will never hear from him again.

    The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing the world he didn't exist.

    And like that

    he's gone

    Gladiator is just the ultimate movie in manliness. Nothing says cool like fighting entirely for revenge, and then dying immediately after finishing your quest.

    Someone should make a chrono trigger movie.

    it was ok

    it wasn't drop dead amazing like everything i've read about it says, i actually thought it was too predictable and kind of corney in spots

    same with the prestege, it was just ok, not the best ending ever, like it said. i can't stand michael cain, i can't understand a f'ing word that comes out of his mouth

    the illusionist was the better movie

    any movie with a nuclear bomb going off and/or some sort of conspiracy theory is pretty awesome.

    All three of those are timeless classics.

    Of course I can never think of all my faves at once, but Crash was awesome. Let's see what else... Man On Fire, The Green Mile, Wedding Crashers, 16 Candles, Something About Mary, Chicago, Meet the Parents/Fockers, the list goes on.

    Saw the Departed, it was ok. I didn't like the ending.
