| guess I forgot to mention that Eraserhead is VERY hard to find. It is out of print, but usually available on ebay. There may be some video stores that have copies of it. There aren't any near where I live though. Good luck finding it. |
It is available on DC ++. Of course I couldn't get a good enough connection to download it.
And I guess I'll have to watch True Romance now. |
Yes True Romance is a Keeper, (one of 107 dvd collection  ) I love it, it has so many famous actors. Tony Scott Directed it, he's good, im a fan of his work, he did The Last Boy Scott and Spy Games. He did some other movies, i just cant think of them.
Name your favorite actor or actress, and name your favorite movie from the actor you chose from too. If you dont have a favorite, think of one 
I'll go first 
Arnold Swartsenegger -Total Recall(i have no idea how to spell his last name) Arnold is the shit! Most people will disagree b/c they cant understand what he's saying or they hate the cheasy one liners. But i have a collection of 10 dvds just from Arnold and i love them all!.

I just saw Master And Commander yesterday. It was a very good film. Now all I have to do is see The Last Samuri and LOTR: The Return Of The King and I'll be all set.

Speaking of those movies, when does LOTR and Last Samurai come out?
Favorite actor is hard. I don't really like any actor that much that I watch movies jsut for an actor. But I guess my choice is fairly easy: Kevin Spacey. My favorite movie that he is in is American Beauty, but Seven is not too far behind.
Arnold...     ...
I don't like action films that much unless there' something special about them. I mean, Arnold's movies are just straight corny action hero lameness. And I was under the impression that Total Recall was the worst movie ever. But hey, I respect your opinion. And beause I respect it I'll give ya a chance to take it back...

Last Samurai is the 5TH of December i think
The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King is the 17th
its sick i know
Now, how dare you! Arnold might rub off as a cheesy actor, but he's the shit. How did you not like Total Recall???  That movie was great, Mars, 3 booby lady, guns, guns, guns, mutants, memory lost, and blood & GORe! What else could you ask for? Not only that, but the ending is a paradox or undecided. THIS is the movie that i can watch endlessly.
That was just one of the 9 of the collection of Arnold, the other 8 are great classics except one, that was made to be a cheesy action flick for laughs ofcourse its called LAST Action Hero(i laughed alot during this movie), it was only 5$ so i bought it.
But the others
Terminator 1 & 2 -Great movies till today, they made a 3rd one!
Predator- Arnold is the only one that survived and kicked the predator's buttocks(i cant say as*)
True Lies Classic, original, and funny
Conan 1&2- great movies, 1 was great, 2 a little cheesy
The Running Man- 80's movie so kina of cheesy, i liked it 
Collateral Damaged- Under-rated, but i thought it was great, firefighter searching for revenge on terrorists is a great plot for a movie. I might sound sarcastic, but it was a cool movie.
Well thats all of them, i bet you probally think there all cheesy, but i guess its your opinon. Your entitled

I'll be honest, I've only seen about ten minutes of Total Recall. Maybe I should watch the whole thing but I'm in no hurry.
What did you think of T:3? As I said, my friend lets me in the theater sometime, so I went with another friend to see Bruce Almighty then went into T:3 just in time fo the ending. I was surprised to find myself actually liking the end of it.

T3 was alright, but it was by no means the movie that it should've been. As a summer action picture, it was decent but as the follow up to T2 and perhaps final film in the trilogy, it should have been a lot better.

I actually thought the 3rd was better then the 2nd. It had nothing but action, and a great ending. I thought it held up to be a great movie, and it should be #11 in my Arnold collection 
*****Rumor Spoiler*****
Well I heard good things about the last Samuari. I forgot who told me, but i heard they had a pre-release to it.
I saw a making or some type of preview to the new Lotr i saw were the characters go from the last movie, and the movie is supposed to have a huge war scene longer, bigger, and it cant compared to the last movie.
It seemed promising, cant wait

I saw the last samurai 
Im lame i know, i saw it the 2nd day it came out. Well, the movie was good ofcourse, i can see alot of people not liking it(younger crowd mostly). When i was in the theater i remember being bored at some points, but other parts of the movie make it up. I wasnt fully happy when i first saw it, i liked it and the idea of it. Then the next day i always just think about the last movie i saw and review everything in my brain, and after that, my new opinion was that this movie was Great! The reason why i wasnt fully sure of it, b/c they had alot of slow boring scenes, but after i thought about it, if they didnt have those scenes it wouldnt make any sense. I have nothing for the spoiler, yet. unless someone saw it ofcourse.
Other then that, i havent bought any movies for my collection except X-MEN2, i saw Suicide Kings last night. It was a strange movie, it started well, the idea was great and original. The ending though just sucked, it could of been alot better.
I saw Identity, very cool movie it has alot of twisted scenes. The plot is hard to follow, its a big build up till the end, then you know everything. I liked it.
The next movie thats gonna be apart of the collection is Pirates and the Caribbean. Well thats it for me

No spoiler yet, I'm still trying to get someone to go see it with me. I'll probably see it in the next couple days though. My friend said it was awesome, but he also liked Matrix 3 so we'll see...

I just watched Blue Velvet the other day and boy is that movie interesting and funny in a *** up way.
I also got the Season 1 dvd box of Twin Peaks and am watching it right now.
For Christmas I'll get Mullholland Drive from my little sister, so that'd be another in my David Lynch collection.
Oh, and I just saw Nightmare Before Christmas.

GoodLuck Fabi  , Twin Peaks is out of this World, and the ending isnt to worthwild  , but it did have some weird way to keep me on the movie. The story was out of this world, if you can even catch the story. I dont think i like the movie to much, but it was worth seeing .

I meant the TV series that was out before the movie. The movie is more of a Prequel to the series, done afterwards, actually. 
I like the episodes a lot, so far, but I've only watched the pilot and the first three episodes. The series isn't as dark as the movie for the most part. Too bad I watched the movie beforehand, cause naturally being a prequel it contains a lot of spoilers regarding the series.

I think we had a conversation about that actually  , if it wasnt you, i rememeber someone told me about the series. I forgot about that, i know what you mean about prequels, but i like them also, it just depends when they release it and how much they spoil. 
When i first created this thread i had a link that i actually liked using, i just dont want to loose it, so here it is
http://www.efavata.com/CBM/Xmen3.htm and this other one, i never posted this (atleast i dont remember posting it) http://comingsoon.net/
There pretty good sites, if you havent seen them by now. I like have easy access, links rule

Ok, I saw the Last Samurai today. It was very good, but even though it was pretty long it needed more time to develop. I read a book called Shogun a couple months ago and it had practically the same white man samurai story, just a different war. It did a better job of displaying the Japanese culture and how different it was, and had a better love story. Of course that is because only so much could be done in 2 and a half hours.
I definitely reccomend the book if you're interested.

Books are always better. You arent limited towards the visuals, your mind can create anything(as long as you read it). I honestly havent a read a book in about a year.
So this new Lotr's is already coming out !
Im not sure if there any good movies left
